Dreyfuss said:The kind that thinks games should play themselves (or that it's acceptable to get others to hold their hand through them), difficulty is a sin, and competition will destroy the human race.
These are also the people who throw around the word "elitist" like it's an insult and can't grasp that some people actually have fun being competitive. Yeah, we get that you have fun too, we don't mind you having fun your way, but for all your complaining about how we can't seem to have fun, you guys sure do love dumbing everything down to the point that we can't find anything we would enjoy. You ever think maybe we're all so sour because you guys keep spoiling everything for us? Stop being so pathetic, grow a pair, and learn that a lot of the crap you complain about in games wouldn't be such a chore if you stopped whining long enough to pick up an ounce of skill and a grasp of basic logic.
Also these weak-willed babies that love crying about people who treat their opinions "as facts." It's called a strong opinion, at least they stand behind what they say. If you're going to take that kind of attitude then you have to be perfectly okay with the opinion that 9/11 was hilarious, women don't deserve any rights, blacks should go back into slavery, and Jesus looked his best with a **** in his mouth. After all they're only OPINIONS right? If you think any of those statements are wrong then get blown you hypocrite.
Note, the average xbox live douche yelling "f*g" at anything that displeases him is NOT what I mean by "competitive." If you get those mixed up, you are also the kind of person I'm talking about.

Akira Fumi (Either defend your opinion properly or don't bother saying it at all. If you can refute them, do it, if you can't, stop complaining. Oh boo hoo someone's feelings got hurt, wah. Get over it, get over yourself, form an opinion that's actually solid enough to stand up to some abuse. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAWzkUur4tY)
Arcane Azmadi
wouldyoukindly99 (Why don't you practice? Not motivated? Stop complaining, they earned their skills. Don't care? Clearly you care enough to complain about it. Also, you're playing TF2 on PS3/360 and expect better?)
Anticitizen_Two (Elitist != close-minded moron)
Insanum (Smacktalk is the whole reason to play multiplayer. What's the fun in winning if you can't show off? Also, stop saying good game after every damn game as a reflex and save it for the good ones.)
Jfswift (Turning off a mic is a great way to get people to respect your ability to help the team to victory. Gg is probably the most annoying thing in video games these days. Your "courtesy" is reflexive, and thus disrespectful. It's a cheap cop-out to make yourself seem like a "nice guy" when you're really only serving yourself. I'd much prefer you not say anything at all if you aren't going to take the time to actually be cool and have some post game chat. It's this attitude that you can't take criticism and have fun at the same time that is the reason they can't have fun. Don't confuse criticism with baseless attacks. The whole point of criticism is to point out flaws so the person can IMPROVE. You are not helping the noobs by shielding them from the big bad pro player, you are stifling their growth and turning them into pathetic gibbering emotional balloons.)
Legion IV
NoblePhilistineFox (Basing your worth as a human being on whether or not you've reentered a vagina since birth doesn't mean a whole lot when you can find prostitutes that cost less than the average video game.)
Regiment (And books are just big walls of text, and movies are just a bunch of dumb moving pictures, and art is just stupid useless crap we do when we're really bored, etc. Also, your expectations are too high for TF2. You're playing on PS3 after all.)
GunlockerGlock (Saddens me to see such a post with a CT avatar attached, but you "fun" guys are just as bad. You can't stand to have anyone even try to take a game seriously because it makes it obvious how bad you are and you can't either A) get over it and accept that you're bad or B) be bothered to try not being so bad, so you try to shut us down and take that "games are toys" attitude like Regiment.)
fat tony (You know, some people think playing with people who can actually give them a challenge is more fun than playing with target practice.)
rune342 (It is possible to know WHAT to do, and simply be bad at doing it.)
AverageJoe (Wow, just everything about your post. Clearly there are people who are gamers and people who are not, so it's not really hard to believe that people meet that "gamer" description to different levels, and therefore that are people that are more deserving of the title. Newer is not always better, do you have any idea how many new ideas are tried and fail miserably? Newer is SOMETIMES better, but clearly you can't see the difference between a person aware of this FACT and the very rare retro fanboy. I have no doubt you equate any fond talk for anything older than the current generation to "nostalgia." You ever think maybe people are such dicks in multiplayer because you deserve to be acted like a dick toward? People rarely expect others to be excellent, they expect them to TRY, which I don't think is an unfair expectation, but then I guess you don't handle any sort of expectation well. Bitter that you're not in the intelligent crowd? Probably the reason they don't WANT to be your friend. Because there's nothing wrong with you and anyone who doesn't want to be your friend must be stupid amirite? For hating people that are cynical and pessimistic, you're awfully cynical and pessimistic yourself. I guess that means you hate yourself? Would explain why you're so cynical and pessimistic. Oh, circular reasoning, how fun you are! Lol, someone who doesn't socialize calling people shut-ins with no friends. What a waste of such perfectly good cynicism. You've got the right attitude, just directed at all the wrong targets.)
Slayer_2 (There's a difference between advice and moronic backseat gaming. Telling you to dodge bullets is not advice, it's idiocy.)
Reaper69lol (What's wrong, smugness makes you insecure? I love people that are smug. Only when they're smug for good reason. Delusions of skill when they have none is annoying, but that's not the same as smug. Modesty is just as bad.)
BryceN (And that is precisely why they don't respect you. You're a quitter, they can sense that, and frankly you deserve to be driven out if you won't man up and take the heat.)
I read every post, so if I didn't mention you then you're cool.

A perfect example of everything I personally loath about gaming/gamers and the reason that (TF2 and Champions Online aside) I do not play multiplayer games.Dreyfuss said:The kind that thinks games should play themselves (or that it's acceptable to get others to hold their hand through them), difficulty is a sin, and competition will destroy the human race.
