Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

These aren't meant to be secretive killings, the signature is the message

Sure, but would it kill them to spice things up every once in a while?

It's unfortunate that this method was initially used because it was an intentionally ambiguous method of assassination, whereas now it's a signature assassination, with only a sprinkling of ambiguity for their local media.

Just think, if they had started with tragic hot air balloon accident, death by misadventure with a jet ski, or pet bear mauling?

This is what happens when everyone follows the same Hitman walkthrough.

Or volcano-shark-rocket accident?
