    Since you seem pretty adamant in your goal to turn this thread from the original topic to an argument where you don't seem to even read my responses and I'm forced to quote you and point out where you argument falls flat because you didn't read something properly or just skimmed over my response, I'm just going to let you have fun with that. I get where you're coming from, and maybe I am a jerk for not reacting in kind to people trying to spawn hog, but I guess that's just my nature. As far as competative farming goes, why does it need to be competitive farming if there are two people and enough spawns that, if not trying to kill everything at once, by the time you're done killing your share, they've started respawning again. As someone mentioned earlier, if there are four spots and to farm and only two people why should someone feel the need to try and take all four spots?


    If you're a long time player of MMOs and multiplayer games, you know that there are in fact ways of judging a person's state of mind through their actions/reactions in game even without them saying a word. Simple things like increased or decreased reaction time, messing up simple combos or actions and doing so more and more as they get more and more nervous/frustrated. Though not as accurate as seeing the individual in person, if you pay attention to movement, reaction time, etc. you can get a pretty good understanding of another player's state of mind. If you don't pay attention to such things it's usually for one of a few reasons. a) you're the typical player who doesn't pay attention to other players or b) you only play with people you know so you don't feel the need to pay attention c) you have no idea what psychology is.

    You're the one arguing dude and taking this off-topic but okay.

    You said above "if you watch crime shows". Let me be the first to tell you that "crime shows" are some of the furthest possible things you can get from reality in forensics and criminal psychology and most of it is just dramatic effect. Yes obviously there is psychology in video games. Yes obviously people do things for different reasons and sometimes actions become predictable and make a good indicator of what's happening behind the screen. This is not always the case. What you listed could be hundreds of reasons not having to do with what you said, just as someone taking mobs from you could be for any number of reasons, most of them non-malicious.

    Don't go around acting like a scholar in psychology from watching crime shows and reading a few things on the internet when your analysis of other players in this thread alone is blown out of proportion.
