Must everything be a competition?

As far as I know, Ellay has not suffered by having a lesser trinket.

"Whee, I just got the Medallion of the Horde!" would have sufficed adequately.
"Whee, I just got the Medallion of the Horde and you don't! Nyah, nyah, nyah!" is just childish.


Did you see Suvega and I going "Whee, we just 2x5-manned Karazhan!" or "Whee, I just 2x5-manned Karazhan and you all had to bring 5 soloboxers to do it so you suck!"
Did you see Nixi going "Whee, I just 10-manned Karazhan!" or "Whee, I just 10-manned Karazhan and all you scrubs haven't!"
Did you see Ellay going "Whee, I was taken to ZA/SSC with my guild!" or "Whee, I was just taken to ZA/SSC with my guild and you guys haven't!"
Did you see Ellay going "Whee, I just got 2k gladiator!" or "Whee, I just got 2k gladiator and you guys aren't even close!"

There's a good way to cheer about achievements you've made in-game, and a bad way. I know it's all in jest, but the massive amount of childish "nyah, nyahs" are starting to wear on even my patience. Please exercise common courtesy to your fellow members -- you can still show off your shiny new items/achievements without needing to bash someone else's.
