Re: rawr being a poor sport.
Or perhaps a better explanation: This shit has been going on for so long that we, as a community, are immune to it and accept it for what it is: part of the fucking game. Kindly mop up your tears and grow some thicker skin, or go play a game more suited to your level of tolerance, such as hungry hu...

Re: rawr being a poor sport.
Of course I agree with everything you've said, but I would add two additional reasons why this behavior is so common: 1. There are no tangible repercussions for the players you describe. 2. These players don't consider themselves to be part of a community to which they are responsible. They hate bei...

Re: Jerk infestation
This is the exact argument that could be applied to people like CES (the OP) coming on myth and trying to tell you the definition of what a jerk is and how you need to straighten up and "be nice" (means a variety of things to a variety of people) or you get booted. THE INTERNET DOESNT REA...

Re: Jerk infestation
This has just devolved into an argument about whether or not attacking a farther flag in CTF is "against the rules" or not. We've already established that it's a bad strategy, but it isn't cheating or ruining the game for everyone. Trying to impose some pseudo rules on top of the stated ru...

Re: Jerk infestation
honestly if players are tired of getting beat down by jerks that should be motivation to get better and make them eat their own shit (while being polite) Playing with unpleasant assholes is less enjoyable, no matter whether you're winning or losing. If that's the only game a person can find, they m...

Re: Jerk infestation
Good point jason and punkuser. I realize I can host my own games, but I'm trying to get at the larger issue of users who ruin the experience for many of us in-game as well. When they get booted from one game, they go on into someone else's game only to cause trouble there as well. It's even worse in...

Re: Jerk infestation
I think the responses to my OP pretty much mirrors how I described the community as it currently stands. If you look at the replies in this thread, there are a group of people that characterize this issue as a problem because the ratio of antagonistic players to regular players has changed as a resu...

Jerk infestation
Forgive me if this has already been discussed on here, but I just got back into the M2 community after being on Mariusnet years ago. It strikes me that the reason why new players may rarely come to play M2 is the horrible way they're treated in games on GOS. I understand there's a huge barrier to ge...
