So much hate...

[Pycno]

Do you guys even queue for the smaller Random's? Do you encounter this much hate?

I am not disheartened, if I lose I still get 30 Honor for the loss plus another 20-35 honor during the BG. I am just annoyed where the player base is heading.

What right does internet bullies have to harass you?

None..

What can you do about it?

1. Meet their demands and stop playing, only to find that they continue whining anyway (they never run out of things to go aggro on)
(Its not really your fault they have IRL issues causing them to go nuts over a game that they should have a good time playing)
2. You can endure their unrespectful behaviour
3. You can turn the tables around and have LOADS of fun on their expense.


This is making me want to reopen my accounts, I miss (politely so I cant be banned!) harassing the harassers and standing up for the newbies in battlegrounds. The only kind of player I dislike is the bullies that will harass your gf/wife if she rolls on an item she dont need or if she drops the flag... I have nothing against slackers, newbies etc as they are playing the game their way without trying to ruin the experience for everyone else.

I in particular loved the small battlegrounds as people would blame me for their loss and contribute to my entertainment. There is nothing like having a few angry german kids going crazy because they lose, and pretty much all players lose 50% of their games meaning there is never a shortage of people to poke when they are about to burst out in tears.


No I aint perfect but I never start harassing anyone, but Ill join whenever someone starts up that game of ball
I seriously laugh out aload over what some people can say and how serious they take the game, its just priceless!

So yeah, take advantage of the haters, they dont deserve your best behaviour OR your friendship anyway.

Love how well thought out Pycno's post is.

This weekend. Im my huntard. I used my Charlie Sheen Tactic, and was "Winning...Duh". Then used the ole "/y LOL" as I made a pain train following me around EotS. So predictable.

I actually managed to piss off a guy on another server, so much that he needed to create a toon, just to chat at me and cuss me out.

I relished in this. "What you little b----, you cant take me on 1v1!?!? You suck, Eat my s---...you are a baddie. Im good, you're not! Blah blah blah HATE HATE HATE"

To which I replied.
"Mr. Internet Big Talker, Thank you for the screenshot you have just provided me, and my friends, for what will be several minutes of enjoyment. Clearly, your toon was better geared than mine. Grats, to playing this game more. There is a fine line between stupidly charging into a battle you cant win, and being totally insane. Example: charging headstrong into a conversation with one of more experience and wit, definitely out-gunned. Please feel free to rant and create as many toons as you see fit to accomplish and fulfill your venting... my ignore button will work for them all. "

Its a two part macro.

I have no idea which opponent this was, he didnt announce himself. Maybe he was shy.

Hahaha I love that!

I sometimes take the edge out by just stating the obvious..
"%(/#)%/ YOU NO SKILL NOOB LOLLOL!"
"You are right! Im very bad at computer games, you are very good!"
"I PWN YOU 1V1 NAB!"
"Yes I cant win anything 1v1"
"I OWN YOU MULTIBOTNOOB!"
"Yes and now all the girls will want you because you are better than me at a game "
"Girls only date high rated players yes" etc.

Many of these complainers are decent in the game and they tend to spend much time in it also resulting in top notch gear. However they are very rarely among the best players, in order to compete with the best you need to adapt and learn instead of complain and anger reduces skill somewhat also imo.


Actually sometimes I do get slightly provoked and I feel like "Wait thats not right!" very briefly, that only happens when people say Im good xD But I dont argue about it, if someone thinks 1500ish rating is skilled then so be it :P
