Who's hated more?

The Asker
Who's more hated of this two Computer game designers:
Richard Garriott(Ultima) or Brad McQuaid(EverQuest)?
I know many people who paid for assasains to go to their houses and come back with their heads on a stick...

So who's hated more?

Ugh *sigh*.
Lord British was personally responsibile for hand-assembly the first three in the Ultima series of Computer Role Playing Games. What did Brad McQuaid ever do for anyone?
Academician Prokhor Zakharov
I don't think there are many who hate either of the two gentlemen personally. They are simply replaying the age old roles handed to us by our genetic structure. Garriot and McQuaid both represent the alpha-male of their respective fantasy worlds, and thus are the targets of anyone who wishes to prove themselves superior.

Both Ultima Online and EverQuest are fantasy games, and rely heavily on the fact that humans are predisposed to using violence as the only method to determine the pack heirarchy.

In the academic setting, this is done by publishing papers.
