I can see your point, and I agree with you.
Reminds me of a similiar achievement in a different game mode, and I’ve written a passage — a somewhat lengthy one, perhaps, as a warning for those who don’t like to read much — about it and the player mentality (see the part about ‘trolls, netdeckers and losers’ in particular, which your opponents apparently are) in general, which I think expresses a similar sentiment, so I guess I’ll leave it here in case someone’s interested.
By the way, come to think of it, your being bullied verbally for you understandable frustration by some random forum ‘star’ only further strengthens the point about player mentality. What do they say in such cases, ‘sad but true’?
PS To conclude, one could say that the main design mistake of this kind of achievement is disregard for the nature of your particular players and their mentality, to put it politely. Not that I’d expect the developers to learn from their mistakes, but anyway…
