Player skill level classifications

[RiyahArp]

I would assume you would be diametrically opposed to these sorts of classifications.

I'm not against classifications as descriptive. The problem is that people assign moral worth to social classes way too often, and tend to give a pass or be blind to the negative aspects of the higher classes. Elitism is more or less arguing that the difference classifications also have different value and different importance in themselves. This is very common in life...not just the game, and people tend to not realize how much they do it. There are always rich people, but you can really dislike what they do as a class. You have to realize the social classes exist before you can be angry at what they do.

It's impossible to classify millions of players into such few boxes. How would you classify a player that could definitely do all 'hardcore' content but they don't want to deal with the stress or can't ever find the time to do it? Would you call them casual? Midcore? It's way more complex than that.

Idk, people have made the point of intention, but this is more based on what players would actually do. I mean more about what aspects of the game you try. I couldn't classify based on how people see themselves; i mean what started this was hearing someone describe themselves as a casual ultimate raider.

These aren't set in stone though, they were just an attempt at trying to view different kinds of players as they exist. TBH i thought it might be good to have a little more positive content from me than i usually do.
