I honestly don't care. I can always find better stuff to do.
I like foruming on this site though. Can't find a bunch of unique assholes anywhere else <3
I also can't see this sub-forum just disappearing so quickly so sudden so

I've always wondered why people are big dicks when it comes to people that they don't know. I mean, why be a dick then?
Is it a common nature to people that are good on something that to be dick on others that aren't really that good, or is it just coincidence that I'm seeing this behavior with other people, especially gaming. I've seen this situation where I'm entitled to learn something that I'm not aware of but instead I get shitted on by veterans, doesn't make sense to me. Being a bitch on people who's barely got in touch of anything doesn't make a person good, it makes them look bad in the view of the person being bitched at. I know the line between trashtalk and serious bitching about a person not being good enough, because I've never seen any gamer didn't trashtalk to the ally or the enemy, same with everything in this world. Why continue with the persona then? It's such a big deal to me it got me into a bit of burnouts and frustrations, college or in the internet. I try to shrug of both, but OT, I need your advice? Is this aspect of a certain community favored or not? Is having a dick in a group, a clan or something a flow of life or something?

If there's a dick in a group or a clan and everyone is aware they're being a dick to you, and nothing is being done about it, I don't think the group/clan is worth joining honestly.
It's hard to find nice people who will help you learn something because most people just want to mindlessly play the game and blame their losses on everything but themselves, and I find the majority of communities in any given game are either silent or toxic. Very few are vocally helpful. That said, it's sometimes hard as a veteran to tell whether people actually want help and advice on something: In 700 hours of playing TF2, I've been asked for advice only a single time. Meanwhile, the majority of people who play the game are like, really, really bad at it. They could seriously use some help. Basic tips like shoot rocket at feet instead of at body. But if I start giving out advice of my own accord, I doubt anyone would ever listen to me, because I doubt a lot of these people even care that they're bad.
The only surefire way to have a nice introduction into something is to try and see if you have any friends at all that are experienced enough in the matter to teach you everything about it.

That's one hell of a run-on sentence work on your grammar man
It's very similar to the lurk more idea. Older users expect newer users to simply get good and figure shit out on their own. It pretty much pushes all responsibility to the new guy, but someone that can show himself the ropes is probably better off than someone that can't. Those that can't usually just get told to fuck off until the situation changes, even if everyone is trying to absolve themselves from any work or responsibility. This doesn't always work out since the whole thing is based off of a pecking order, encouraging elitism beyond more than just old > new, which leads to a lot of bitching and whining. Bottom line is that they'll tend to place themselves above strangers.
Not that it's a bad thing in itself, but when you're dealing with stressful things all the time, most people will probably blow it off online through games and such.

The thing is, those people who you would be giving advice to would probably think that you're being an elitist dick. You know, because that's pretty much how people react in online games if you advise them without them asking for it.Mahogany wrote:

Not just online games either, I bet people feel that way about me all the time on OC.joi- wrote:

Because that's not giving advice but giving your opinionGreen Platinum wrote:

Advice is largely opinionated with what people should prioritise working on and how they should go about it.
Sorry for the delay, Brian. I was kinda busy with some stuff, but I hope you enjoy them.
Well, that's true, but what's your point? There's no objective way to improve at anything outside of just doing it more. Anything past "Play more" is always going to be subjective, but it's probably what's worked for that person, so it probably has at least some merit if they're being serious about what they're saying.Green Platinum wrote:

If you think someone's opinion sucks, that's okay, but you should have reasons why you think their opinion sucks, and you should be gathering the opinions of other people as well, and making your decisions based on all the advice you've been given, and choose what parts to take on board and what parts to disregard.
TF2 never gave much incentive to get good, honestly.

Did he send you some dick pics?
I would, but you wouldn't be able to see anything.
I'd rather not see anyways.
I sent him some Steam games as belated birthday gifts, I couldn't do it before because I had some serious stuff to deal with.

Since we're talking about TF2 has anyone had any luck finding idiots on trade-only/idle servers who don't know the correct price of Earbuds?
No but I did see F2Ps on a trade server the one time I went there
It was a small penis jokeBrian OA wrote:
