    Can't escape it.
    Just have to ignore the bad ones and keep the good ones closer.

    And as time changes, and the society gets more and more stressfull and less free time (depending ofc), means more and more people will take it out while playing when things doesn't go as they planned.
    More and more feel that they can't spend as much time doing trial and error because it's wasted time for them.

    That is atleast how I see things.
    It's exactly the reason. Someone who has come home from work and only has a couple hours to get stuff done, the last thing they want to do is wipe 4 times to Haukke HMs final boss because people can't learn to keep it in their pants and actually do mechanics. Bottom line is that wasting time is not fun, and people will inevitably get fed up. How they react to it is on them, I myself have been known to ragechat and make passive aggressive remarks after the however many Thunder God wipes because of another alliance just not getting the memo.

    It happens to the best of us sometimes. But I think a bigger problem is how thin skinned most of this community seems to be. They need to stop pretending that everything can be resolved by sunshine and rainbows and just grow a pair, take it on the chin, and move on. You're more than likely never going to run into these people ever again, get over it.

    Fair points. But I wish people would stop crying after one and only one wipe in an instance. Human error is a thing.

    I agree, but it would also be nice if people owned their mistakes instead of being silent about it, which only leads salty people like myself to more likely start pointing fingers. From my experience in various Savage kill/farm groups, the most infuriating thing isn't the mistake and wipe itself, it's the fact that nobody ever just owns their mistakes. The times where someone has simply said "Sorry my bad, I tunneled hard there and forgot the mechanic", we've simply gone OK no problem and moved on.

    Lack of accountability in a team focused game, which is what this game is at it's core, is the main reason for the toxicity in my opinion, not people underperforming and making mistakes.
