Why I Decided to Become an Elitist

[Skivvy]

Funny, because in these two posts I see the same arrogance, rude, and hateful attitude they so openly speak against. Two wrong doesn't make a right. You are just as arrogant, rude, and hateful as the elitists that you talk down on. Discrimination is discrimination, it doesn't matter if you discriminates against those who are more or less accomplished in game.

We are talking about a behavior IN-GAME.

Nothing in those posts was rude, or hateful. Bloody hell, what are we actually trying to discuss anymore?



my brain hurts.

Right, because labeling an entire group of people as "arrogant, rude and very anti-social" based on a category isn't the very definition of discrimination. Saying someone deserves the "scorn" or is "nothing but an ant on the world map" isn't hateful at all.

I'm talking about people that openly refer to themselves as elitist, and ARE arrogant, ARE rude, and VERY anti-social, you think that's acceptable?
All I'm doing is calling a spade a spade.

Not anymore acceptable than your behavior.

This feels like a twisted version of "I know you are but what am I!".

HexWeaver, for your sanity, I'd advise backing away slowly at this time.

It's perfectly okay to have a different point of view, but deflection and unreasonable replies that don't make sense or twists contexts isn't really the way to go I'm afraid.

Your sensitivity is cracking me up, I aimed nothing at you personally but you're snapping at me like an angry dog for calling out bullying, brutish behaviour.
If you wanna get all butthurt and think I'm referring to you then by all means go ahead.

So the lesson here is that both groups seem to be fed up with each other. The difference is that elitists are perfectly happy just grouping up with each other, while everyone else wants to group up with elitists. (So long as they shut up and carry them without complaining.)

Speak for yourself, I'd happily (and have done) play and learn with a bunch of newbies than have some person with a demon brick lodged up their backside laugh and poke fun at me while i'm trying to learn and improve my skills.

Then you've already solved your own problem and have no reason to post here anymore. =o
