    Griefing with an emote

    I just read an interesting post on Facebook.

    It seems SE has an issue with people dancing on corpses and gives warnings to people who do.

    I didn't know I was suppose to be courteous to my opponents who beat me with weapons and such.

    Is this really a bad thing?

    It's called poor sportsmanship. If you flaunted a victory in the face of your enemies in any major sports league, you are also punished. It's no different in a game. People need to learn to be more humble.

    I think of it more as psychological warfare. Been forever since I had a Twin BADders group that's went along with a cohesive idea, but when I got a party to do it at markets after all but the last two or three ported back, those people came running back in solo and angry and ready to watch is put on another dance.

    That's because no one is raised to have a backbone anymore. Everyone gets a trophy thing didn't exist when I grew up, you take the losses, and you celebrate when you win is what we did. Now no one can do anything in some stupid effort to not offend anyone. My take on it, Leave your feelings at the login screen.

    There is a HUGE difference between celebrating and being a complete tool to other people. Celebrating is, "Oh hey, we won, let's all go out to get drinks to celebrate." The opposite is, "Oh hey, we won. You guys really suck. Kiss my fat ass." There is nothing wrong with celebrating a victory. Teabagging someone for losing isn't celebrating, it's harassment (which is why GMs will get involved).

    Who knows people in this world celebrate things in different ways than others do, maybe in his group this is how they do it. I mean some cultures it would be an insult for me to shake someones hand, where its the norm here. There are many different customs in the world, why should here be any different?

    T-bagging, or taunting, isn't that simple. It can be used as a tactical advantage. So, what exactly happens to you when you get taunted? You get infuriated and you might let your emotions cloud your better judgement. What will a person, consumed with rage and wanting revenge, now do? They will find the person and attempt to kill them. Them, and only them. Imagine a warrior or paladin taunting your body? Easily enraged kids/crybabies will target them instead of a healer or a squishy caster.

    No, no, no. GM's will get involved because they fear people quitting from lack of actions done to alleviate their frustrations. That's why they nerf dungeons and give echo buffs. When a player quits, they lose $13 or $15 a month per player.

    Some people play better when they're mad though...
