I don’t seek revenge, it’s not worth the cost. I did think about it and even started the process of getting revenge on an abuser of mine. But I decided against it when I realized revenge would most likely not return the stuff I lost and also meant dealing with my abuser for longer than I wanted. So, I dropped everything and just decided to live my life
What do you think of it?
Depends on what you're thinking about taking revenge for
Do you seek it?
No, because nothing has happened worthy of it
Does it serve any purpose?
Depends on the person and context
Have you had it before?
Yes
How did it feel? Why?
In my specific case, liberating to finally punch a bully flat in his face in the middle of a class because he wouldn't stop his shit.
Was also the only time I had to go see the principal, but I got no consequences because of it being known.
Do I recommend it?
In most cases, no. There's plenty of things where I feel revenge would only feel good temporarily, but you'd have to live with the consequences ultimately. It's better to cut things out of your life if you can. If you really can't (as with a bully in school and the school refusing to do anything), then I don't know.

When I can think of a good way to do what it was done to me, I totally take the chance.
I don't see it as revenge though.

To tell the difference.. did you do it to just make the person suffer? then that's revenge.. did you do it to get justice? then that's retribution.
"Seek revenge and you should dig two graves, one for yourself"
Sometimes attributed to Confucius.
Even without that though it does speak to the expense.
Burn Notice
"Revenge is a waste of time." "So is watching television and eating candy, but you do it because it feels good"
Anyway in talk of games you have games played once and games played continuously. Revenge on something played once. Revenge when you play something continuously... potentially a different matter -- the basic solution to continuous prisoner's dilemma being that one.

Both!
I can usually turn things to my favour by repeating bad attitudes from other people.
If you yell, I'll yell louder.
If you hit me, I'll hit you harder.
If you push my buttons, I'll do yours twice.
I'd be lying if I say no. Mature single women have tried to date me before. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Revenge...in any Computer/Video Game - of Course !! 
In Real Life - Never,no Discussion about that.

To want revenge you have to feel wronged in some way, so it's the same as wanting to get justice and retribution. To do bad things just to make someone suffer is being a sociopath.
You say that but I always find the revenge/payback ideas in multiplayer games lead to people maybe ignoring the greater objectives, which means either effectively less players or if my team has a variation on the theme of lives count then people throwing them away and troubling the rest.Revenge...in any Computer/Video Game - of Course !!
Yes,of Course and that is a funny "Side Effect".
Maybe someone learn from it for the real Life.....
Now I have certainly eaten my chilli cold the next day (and the day after) but the best version is hot, in both senses of the term.

@Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons. -
@
SylverReZ:
Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.

Man, that's beyond my brain I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though -

SylverReZ:
@Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.+1

@
SylverReZ:
Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.

Maximumbeans:
Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha

SylverReZ:
@Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.+1
