No...it really won't be on any of us in any way. We don't control drop rates. I don't /list for items and increase the list time.
And it's not really on the staff at the end of the day either...no one is forcing anyone to /list for a manastone, they're not responsible for what some idiot chooses to do. That's like saying a car manufacturer is liable because some moron decided to drive the car into a group of people.

Look, if you have a purely individualistic view of responsibility, then of course no one can ever be responsible for anything anyone else ever does.
But if you look at things like "a car manufacturer, trying to save time and/or money, accidentally creates a flaw that only kills people who break the speed limit and drive over 90 ... but they are still
somewhat responsible, even though it was unintentional, and even though it was also the driver's fault for doing 90+", or ...
... "you cook someone a free meal, use slightly expired meat, and they die of food poisoning as a result: even though you just wanted to give someone a free meal and not kill them, you're still
somewhat responsible" ...
... then maybe people
can be responsible in a small way for other people, even when they're not putting a gun to their head and forcing them to do something.
If the least healthy among us dies while trying to achieve a goal that we've all (as a community) in some small way pushed them to get, while falsely making it out to be attainable by an individual (when it's not, or at least not without health risks), that's
somewhat (I'm not saying 100%, or even 50%, but maybe 1% or 0.1%) on us as a community.
