It's a sad fact of humanity...


Maybe it's time to start selling the jump to conclusions mats again?

I'll buy stock in it!

Good idea, OP. Pity I am a bit of a forum-holic. :P

The forum is no where as bad as in game though. The amount of rage and crying you see from players in game is way worst than the forums.

You don't df hard content often? Many players on the forum have horror stories of how rude players are in game. It's a regular occurrence while on the forums it's just a difference in opinion most of the time rather than rudeness.

I do, and those people are out there, won't deny that. The forums aren't a good indication of what actually IS though. It's unavoidable to cross paths with these individuals who seem bent on ruining your day, and while it is somewhat common, I wouldn't call it a regular occurrence in my experience.

It's often enough for me to consider it worst than the forums and you see posts on it quite often.

Lemme give you an example of just what happened just a couple hours ago in DF.

Queued up as tank for Garuda and I think OT did something minor wrong (not too sure)

Blm: DERP TANK!
Blm: DERP TANK ALERT!
Blm:I shouda bet on a tank, misread that
Blm: Well whatever, I owe u 100g nao
Blm: Hold on one sec yall
Blm: Setting up my macro
Blm: <se.11>
Blm: Shout: DERP TANK ALERT!
Blm: <se.11>
Blm: Shout: DERP TANK ALERT!
<me> Guy in dl gear, no zenith weapon, talking smack and not doing enough dps (after failing to burn Sup in time)

Bad players that try to talk down to others is extremely common. Just makes the game non casual player friendly and forces players into just doing content in their own groupies. Also the reason why tank population will never increase.
