    As harsh as this sounds, it's true.

    I had one friend who spent most of his time talking to me pitying himself. It got very old after a while, and bothersome to talk with him.

    The best thing to do when you're tired of people online is to keep to yourself until you're ready to deal with people again. People are going to be mean and whatnot, but seeking sympathy like this from everyone you can really isn't going to make people want to come to you. It's just going to make them think you have internal issues you need to settle and that being around you might not be the best idea. Even the best of friends won't usually want to be around someone who is prone to pitying themselves all the time, even though some may tolerate it.

    I hate to say it, but this is the complete truth. It is the main reason so many people hate me on Odin and there's a very negative stigma surrounding me. And once this stigma is attached to you, it isn't going away no matter how good a person you become.

    As I'm sure you are well aware, it takes more than one person to be able to kick a player from a duty, so in all those instances there were at least two people agreeing they'd be better off without you tanking.
