@EA_Aljo I love a moan and a rant like everyone but never do I direct it at anyone. but I’m off an age where it was beaten into you. If you can’t say it to someone’s face then you keep your mouth shut. my internet footprint consists of posting here and cm forum. And I understand peoples frustrations when it comes to games being released with obvious issues. But I can’t get my head around toxicity that comes with gaming these days. Gaming was all fun once 😁
I get what you're saying. I remember the days where games were played for fun. Once everything went online, people could hide behind the anonymity of the internet. Combine that with gaming being hypercompetitive and people having a lack of accountability for how they play, it's not quite the fun, leisure activity we used to have. I love a good, competitive gameplay, but people far too often take out their frustrations on others in game and foster that toxic environment. Unfortunate for sure.

@EA_Aljo Think it all stems from social media(Facebook) I used to play rainbow six vegas, bad company 2(ranked top 2000ish) and cod4 online and I guess as online was all pretty new everyone behaved for the most part. Obviously it got abit loud esp between clans but all good fun banter for the most part. Never abusive and if someone did they would instantly told to shut up by everyone. Rainbow six vegas was where tea bagging was invented and widely implemented 😂😁

I definitely understand some friendly trash talk and such, but people take it way too far nowadays. It's pretty sad for sure. I've been gaming online for longer than I'd like to admit and things have really changed over the last 10+ years. The games are pretty amazing, but the behavior of their players has gotten out of control.

@EA_Aljo @I’ve been gaming since Atari days and my first home computer had a massive 16k memory 😁 Internet? Internet? Back then only one house in the street even had a land line that everyone in the street would pop round and use. Phone owners loved lording it over us poor peasants who could only dream off possessing such a marvel off modern technology 😁
