I think the most common hate tell I get is "get a life".

This confuses me a bit because they're playing the same game I am, so aren't they paddling the same boat? I was in AV the other day and there's a conversation in BG chat about me. And one guy says that I have no life and I live in mother's basement. Then another guy says, "no, if he has full S2 on all toons then he would have no life". I guess they think that only one person in the group gets honor at a time.

I generally ignore almost all tells I get unless I know the person or their guild. The moment I get a hate tell, I just /ignore.
