    If we're talking in-game, for a lot of normal players, when you see them "pissed off", you're probably catching them at a bad time, like after they've been smacking their head against a duty for over an hour unsuccessfully, often thanks to party members that play the game with far less care (I'm avoiding the word "casual" but that's what it is). I do agree that breaks are good for everyone, but sometimes people have the compulsive need to finish something before they take a break, and that's what fuels them (rage-filled or not) to keep chipping away at it.

    That's right; it's not unlike any other addiction, and simply being addicted is no excuse for poor behavior. As with everything in life, moderation is key. Self-control is needed to stop and curb one's own rage, and as with any addiction, when control is lost, help should be sought.
