Not black and white. There’s all types. People who love a good game and those who exploit and bully and stalk, and everywhere in between. It gets all mashed up. There’s potential for some great gaming in Epic BGs, but like all things, there’s also potential for it to be ruined by idiots.
What would help is much better game design that fosters competition while supressing the jerks. Other games achieve it. But what would also help is recognising there’s good communities, and bad, good leaders and bad ones. And that’s on us as players.
Flock around some idiot because they’re ‘good’ and do nothing but play the game all day, everyday, for decades like a South Park trope … or choose fun and friends and collegiate competition. Choice is everyone’s. Choice is yours.
Only communities who used to avoid was when there was a blanket ban on playing for or against AFK 'cause he’s a monumental turd and would stalk and post the slightest victory while studiously hiding and pretending loses never happened. Hence the nick-name.
Regular communities enjoy a good fight and GG each other in the Brute Force group community channel regularly. See it regularly still.
We do this in AVM. We welcome a challenge and always jump at the chance to fight other premades. Mesohorny told me he wants a piece of SPM so we will be trying to queue into them next. It honestly depends on how mean they are. If they are mean, we tactically avoid them. We don’t dodge. It has nothing to do with winning or losing but we never lose. Ever.
Yes. Word travels fast. May I ask how you found out about me so I can improve my business model?
Let’s just say my work is catered to the more… lonely. Maybe you had a stressful day. Perhaps you don’t feel like speaking to an actual real life woman. We will just leave it at that.
Was gonna be nice and say whatever that is Miziz linked is not bad, although the pearls are a bit much.
What going off the vids of rustic houses and that monstrosity of someone’s character to be honest. And no, don’t sex chat to old bald guys as a rule but thanks for the offer.
What’s with the constant strange sexualization of Meso’s name? Anyone who knows him knows he doesnt go on the forums so it’s not like he’s going to see it.
I was using his moonguard toon he uses when we play together. What toon name would you like me to use? Keep in mind I’m currently intoximated out of my mind and I prob won’t remember - not only this post - but also my own identity for a solid day or two at this rate.
Yep. It really comes down to the individual. A good number of good individuals sustain genuine community. JMO it’s easier to see that on horde side these days, but I’m sure there are some really cool alliance who probably still solo.
Pretty much. Also folks should already know most of the ‘louder’ alliance posting on the forums enjoy typing untruths and fishing for drama, so take whatever they say with a guffaw.
