Out of Pod Experience

And OMG i have never experienced so many "Pro" players as in those matches.
I have been called a Noob at least 6 times, a moron and many other quite amusing rage posts have gone thru in the team chat.

And i find myself comparing it to EVE, in the few fleets i have been in none has called me a Noob for doing something wrong.
Instead in a calm manner it has been explained to me what i could have done better, in World Of Tanks i was berated a full two minutes cause i thought i was a better scout than i was.

I have been yelled at for capping (taking the flag), i distracted 3 heavy tanks long enough so that some mediums and a tank destroyer could get into position and got called a noob by one in my team once the heavy tanks managed to kill me.
Funny things is that most that sit and yell about moron teams and such are those that have been killed way before me, i guess that is the only moment they have time to sit and write..

I guess you have never played LoL/HoN/Dota before

God, League of Legends was straight terrible... after making silver I straight quit, the crowd is degrading, the grind is degrading, it wasn't even me most of the time, just what the community does to people that aren't lucky.

I ran into so much of that in LOL that I played three times and uninstalled it from my rig.

I also ran into that when I joined Faction Warfare and stayed in it for only a few days.

Man, I hate that crap.

Well, at least he was kind enough to 'thank' you!

What line are you running? I gave up arty. Requires too much patience.

WoT= World of Toddlers?

World of Tantrums

And if you had you would be called a **** driver for getting your tank destroyed.

And this is why i dont play these kinds of game.

I dont need to stick my head in a septic tank to know its full of poo.

There has always been bad sportsmanship, but there hasn't always been voice chat. I used to see some gamers do this in rl back when it was just them yelling at a screen and occasionally doing some furious typing between spawns. Some where old, some were young, some were leet, some weren't. Either way they were just foul when playing games with other people even if they were alright folks in person. I think the difference these days is that they tend to gravitate to communities where mods tend to allow people to behave like toxic @$$hats.
