It would improve your life though? You clearly have PA problems... I think it's a good idea.
And Artifice and Nfi.... like if there is a paradigm that says you can't do this then you would be compelled to improve your behavior, I can't see why that's a bad thing.
Yeah it's kinda lame because it's only for the purposes of the game... what do you think about if we attribute it to forums or the like in future discussions on RL political possibilities? Say, 6 months in state prison for non-contributory posts that are clearly passive aggressive? What do you think?
You sure you'd want that? Your recognition on this board to me only goes about as far as your posts in the ideal MEA character music thread and you'd be looking at, at least, 10 years for your posts there.
More to the subject, behavior modification and video games is an intriguing matter. There's plenty out there on the subject of ideological reinforcement through the use of entertainment.
For example, some video games do seem to contain efforts reinforcing nationalism almost going full jingoistic. It should be considered that such may be a product of environment and business dealings rather than conscious intentions of the developers. In Andromeda, as has been noted, the case of Sally Ride rather than Valentina Tereshkova getting the nod appears to forward a nationalistic agenda. Although, it is possible Ride's lesbian orientation and related struggle may have contributed to tipping the scale in her favour, among other considerations. That's all conjecture, of course, but in context to your OP it is possible such a thing as you suggest could be included but it may conflict with other agendas since some important capitalist markets and endeavors exploit violence to succeed. 
The inquisitor could never win a battle of passive aggression against vivi
Okay. Well everything in my post was directly aggressive, even sarcasm in first statement is lol. The fact that you can't tell the difference between PA and direct is sad.
And that was PA.

Well none of those were PA.... so.
It's kind of complex to a degree, collaborating with the PA murder genocide complex that is capitalism is kind of insane and yet failing to do so you likely die of starvation so..........
But in terms of these forums pretty much 98% would be in jail for life.
But anyway, like, you look at games and oftentimes they are transformed into more PA vehicles with traditional cinema sort of things, and people play games (maybe lurk on these forums?) in PA form, searching for how they can transform the thing into a PA format.
Basically the idea is that something is immutable, it can't be transformed, the effect I'd imagine would be something like deeply horrifying and psychologically intense, since it would be like "you can't escape" and therefore compel a kind of absolute mental submission and helplessness.
Maybe that sounds kind of wild but I think a lot of extremely PA people would actually be grateful that kind of "imprisonment" so to speak, they tend to make those arrangements in highly complex and self-destructive collateral damagey ways already anyway even with tons of "freedom" so...
Like you can't separate the PA part of your personality to deal with it on those terms, because it would just be overwhelmed totally. Passive and Active faculties would be merged into one. No constraints, etc.
It's not really about punishing, but simply reaching a state of power that compels people to submitting.
I can't even recall being passive aggressive in games.. but I'm sure someone has an example.. The whole medium is kind of about escapism and living out fantasies, right?
It would seem that even passive aggressive people would like to do what they can't in reality when it comes to games. While anyone who isn't passive aggressive will just do more of the same.
Well you play KOTOR dark side so... you are in the minority.
A lot of people though believe it or not play games just as meekly as they engage in regular interactions.
