Sometimes I wonder if the people posting things like "have to keep the casuals and hardcore players divided"... and "could you designate the easy mode gear by making it a different color" ever get embarrassed reading what they have typed.

I wonder if they are embarrassed because they are so desperate to stand out in a video game... and yet- unless they are in a world first FC- they don't stand out. No one cares. Not many care about the world first FCs... but for the people that DO care about that stuff, unless you are a world first FC- you'r just second rate, anyway.

Stop trying to so hard to be something you aren't. Stop trying to stigmatize others so that your mediocrity is less obvious. Enjoy the game for what it is- entertainment.
