This is only a small part of my entire rage collection. Censored parts are just usernames and other dialogs. I'm just really sick of this crap, goddamn how hard can it be to just shut up and play the game? It happens nearly all the LD matches I play. Some of them got too mad that I didnt put there because of the amount of insults. Why are they keep raging? Because you are using AA, having VH ASI items(Since I dont have), playing good? NOPE, They are raging because their small brains cant take losing, and this causes their ego meters to raise, then, this causes them to rage. I dont give a fang if you rage about it, I just wanted to share my feelings.

Yeah, it's become pretty bad

Yeah, it's become pretty bad recently. I've taken a break from LD myself, the community is disgusting.

I guess there are lots of people that just can't stomach their own mistakes, so they decide to blame it on other people's doings.

I just tend to ignore it, unless they insult my friends or my guild, then I usually snap back. Thank the Great Snipe God in the Sky for the ignore list.

Quoting from someone else on the forum:

"Lockdown tends to bring out the worst of all of us."

Mediate on this and a new world awaits you.

Im pretty its a 13+ game because of this.

I dont tend to ignore people, I just answer them back with "umadbro" until they get tired (Im the kind of guy that loves Internet fights lolz), but still, Ignore is a pretty nice function.

@Bacon-strip Yes, community

@Bacon-strip Yes, community these days are like swamp with a few flowers around. I hope this beautiful game wont end up like cod series, ya know.
@falcon yes, and Im also using AA. Why did you ask?
@eltia no thanks, since default world is bad enough.

@canozo

yes, ignoring is a good solution but after a while, you recognize that they are endless. Sometimes, the guy I need to trade is on my ignore list. Think how many players I ignored.

I ask because hammer is one of the easiest ways to really get on someone's nerves. Really fast.

Yep, hammer and aa, these two

Yep, hammer and aa, these two are rage triggers, which I love both.

Congratulations, you rustled

Congratulations, you rustled their jimmies.

Hammer's probably the only weapon I use nowadays when I play LD next to my Sentenza. But I also play as a Guardian so it's not as terrible as playing Striker Hammer, which in my opinion is just overkill since at that point you're next to impossible to touch.

Kudos to playing a hammer class good enough to get their attention though.

Immaturity doesn't have an age.

As the title says .. "Immaturity doesn't have an age", but there is an average age range where a certain level of maturity is expected, which tends to be 13 and older.

For most people who play Online First Person Shooters like CoD .. (Childrens Online Daycare) would agree that parents that allow their underaged kids to wander around on Xbox Live, Steam, Xfire, etc .. should have their head eaten off by a social worker.

And 1 thing we all know about little kids is they get cranky fairly easy, and once they're cranky they rage.

But, as the title states, maturity doesn't always revolve around age, a certain individual is the perfect example .. I can't give you his full name, but it starts with F and ends with eller.

I think OOO's reasoning for the 13+ is so they don't have to babysit the kids of stupid parents.

There are many reasons

I can list some

-Chat - When making a new account, you always start with the chat being fair meaning that when a swear is in chat, it's filtered and censored. Kids do not understand the concepts of the game and don't understand the language

-...Violance? - When it comes to weapons, guns and gear, children will complain "omg its sooo violant ooo take dem out and repace it wit balloon swordz plzzz its vuilunt enough plzzz".

-Inappropriate stuff - People tend to troll, do inappropriate talk and other stuff. One thing they like to do is scare people. Those people who are underaged and have bad grammar will be teased and scared. They might end up showing it to their parents

-Grammar - Ugh, the forums makes fun of people who has bad grammar. C'mon! Now the suggestions is the most horrible, and scary place. So, as a result, they get scared again, and people judge them.

I've had some people rage at me for using Nitronome, citing it's cheap.

I'm not sure whether to feel pride or pity.

There have been quite a few threads like this

It's so disgusting I can't even enjoy spectating. E-peen fixated idiots can't help showing off or "stroking" their own egos with foul language and keyboard images. The toxic environment bleeds into the guilds most obsessed with it, and from there into the community in general. Such a shame.

These threads...

Let's remember mostly of american kids know these stuff at school and even at home ( with their families). Stop with this "innocence" and just change the chat filter, if you don't want to hear, you have the right.

And people wonder why I hate LD.

Almost everyone on there usually complains about one thing or another. Sure I've complained about a little thing here and there such as "Know anything other than Polaris spamming?" but it's extremely rare. There's also liars on there too who complain about people using things that they don't use but it ends up they use it too.

Either way, every game has people like this. You can't exactly run from it.

EDIT: The 13+ Age filter is there because of U.S. Laws I believe. I'm not exactly sure though.

The Language filter is there for people like me: I'm not under 13, I'm an adult with responsibilities, but just because I'm an adult doesn't mean I swear constantly. I hate it! OOO is pretty much the same way too. As various gamemasters have stated, foul language of any sort is against ToS. The filter is just there so you don't have to hear it.

@Oatmonster True,

@Oatmonster True, true.
@Citizen-Soldierx I seldom see some young but respectful players, and I see often older and disgusting players. This is what makes me sad. And I hope this game wont turn into Spoiled Kids(SK), unfortunately, we cant do nothing. It is something comes with generation.
@Benightz yeh, but I think ego factor is way more efficient, because I 'was' one of those ragers once.
@Zeddy they are just trying to find something to blame on you. Believe or not, I once got insulted because of my winmillion.
@Mawashimono Know that feel bro, It is a really demoralizing situation.
@Megatech Yes, it is useful too.
@Glacies Everyone could complain, it's not something unnatural. But some people keep doing it that makes me annoyed and sad.
Btw guys I was trying to share my feelings about it, not trying to find a solution lol.

Zaffy is Laffy

O.o what do you mean by " I seldom see some young but respectful players, and I see often older and disgusting players. " Define : Old? If you mean rich, 5 star stellar gear etc., they probably rushed to 5 star. Real "Old" players are actually, and indeed kind and friendly. You can tell the attitude difference because of the amount of time they spend on the game.

On topic, people who really complain a lot can test my patience. I admit I personally hate AT, but I don't rage it all out.
