I just thought to myself, is this how these assholes are? They can't show each other a bit of sportsmanship or offer to help him get better or give him advice... This isn't about me, its just how games are, its how everyone gets treated. D2, COD, Halo anything... People act like its some huge deal, and act like they hate their fellow gamer... We should look at everysingle online users as a ****ing brother I'm sorry...
Yes, that's exactly how people are. Sadly there is nothing that can be done about it either, they have to make the choice to change themselves. Everything is a competition, it's in human nature to want to beat one another, this is just one of the many outlets for it.
