Sycophantic Hero vs Sadistic Villain

[Leaf]

I thought I'd try to bring in some friendly debate in this forum, so here goes nothing...

There are two types of individuals that are scorned upon. The first is the sycophantic hero, someone who commits good deeds simply to make people like him/her. The second is the sadistic villain, a person who does whatever evil action he/she feels like doing.

But which of the two is worse? Discuss which you feel is worse and why.

far as im concerned the sycophantic hero is better because regardless of the motive behind their actions they are doing good things

i'm with Relentless on this one. people always have ulterior motives for anything they do. But, if something good happens because of it? I find that to be a much more pleasant alternative to any "evil-doings"
