It could perhaps go next to the languages in the /sea page. This would make it much easier to know what type of player you're inviting to an event in a pickup group.

This way the oppressed casuals could avoid being judged by the elite. And the elite can avoid wasting their time inviting gimps.

Thanks for your time.
I reopened this because it was a shame that the original poster decided that the conversation wasn't going his way, so I'm here to continue with it.

My opinion:

How do you determine hardcore from casual? I'm in the middle, I could be considered a hybrid of a causal hardcore or hardcore casual player. I have really good skills, very decent gear, and knowledge of many years of playing this game. But I am also laid back and don't give a flying flip about anyone else's gameplay. Am I casual, am I hardcore, what am I?

And why should I have to determine this for myself? I should let people pick me for who I am, not for who I say I am.
