Lol deception aside, good on anon opponent for pivoting from mildly toxic to totally wholesome on a dime.
I don't really have any interest in online competitive gaming, but messaging an opponent to tell them they suck after you beat them badly doesn't really seem to follow the precepts of sportsmanship.
Hence “mildly toxic”.
I don't really consider that mild.
You think “u suck bro” isn’t mild?
Oh my sweet summer child…
It's almost like the fact that the people who participate in online competitive gaming being complete shitstains (and it being completely normalized) is a big reason why I have no interest in online competitive gaming.
Okay, I really don’t see how it’s that bad tbh. I’ve never messaged anyone like that or been toxic, but it’s so mild…
I also don’t think it’s been “normalized”, it’s just really not a big deal. I don’t know why anyone would be that bothered by it and think they’re a complete shitstain.
It's absolutely normalised. Imagine saying this in any other circumstance playing a game with a stranger.
That this is mild for gaming doesn't mean it isn't toxic as fuck.
Yeah, it’s hard to imagine two strangers sitting at a chessboard at the park when one goes “LOL checkmate d00d u suck bro!!”. People are far more willing to be toxic arseholes when they don’t have to look the other person in the eye. Anonymity allows for the worst behaviour a person can engage in - just look at platforms with forced anonymity like 4chan. The more anonymous you are, the more of a dick you’re willing to be.
Obviously people have said and do say much worse things, but at least most of the time it's in-game, it's pretty shitty to DM someone instead.
I consider DMing your opponent after the match bad
Yes I think we are in agreement.
Please don't tell her you beat me or she'll do the same.
Didn’t I just see this posted before that last message was sent being like “decided to be a bro, kid was only 11”
Should've doubled down and said go play Roblox
one guy beat me super badly but since i was a kid and didnt rage at all he gave me two 99 overall MUT players
this is why in any internet conversation it never matters to me if someone wants to bring up their race, sex, orientation, group affiliation, age, whatever as being significant to the conversation. your argument is one human to another (sheesh im not even joking this time on being human) and it has to be relevant on only its merits. that being said if they have a personal anecdote that seems believable I might take it into account.
Oh my god as a duck I'm so. fucking. offended.
It’s weird to see you two interact. I see both of your usernames around on here and just group them together because they both start with hu- names and form homophones for words/phrases.
Quack, quack, quack.
I do this whenever I lose to toxic people on rocket league
Whoop! Thanks for my daily lol.
Reminds me of when Blizzard banned a bunch of people for being underage when they joked about being 12.
