Should people with mental health issues hide themselves away from the world because we, as a community, are simply too cruel or incompetent to practice self restraint? I think we CAN do better than that.

We should never condone hate speech towards anyone. The fact you were so quick to blame the victim is proof that we have a long ways to go towards making this community more tolerant.

You seem to be confusing avatars with people. We are all gamers, and that puts us on the same "team" all the time - even when our avatars are on opposing sides.

No, it's not surprising that it happened in PvP- but if this is the "norm," that is NOT OK. And the sooner we can all acknowledge that, the better.
