How do you know some of them aren't having angry sex in the background while playing the game? It happens, you know. Especially in Uno! Maaaaaan, I can tell you stories...
It is unfortunate. At the same time because of situations like the ones mention people try not to play a little serious in fear that they may get beat or dont even play at all even though they invited everyone there. We should be able to grow beyond this.
One can only dream. I just want to be able to have fun, honest matches. Tired of this subtle hatred masked by fake friendly attitude to people who only kiss each others ass. Slowly drawing away from this online bull crap. I don't have ways to get to every offline tourney so I can't just stop playing for fear of growing rusty. But, man. I'm just getting tired of this petty shit.
It's hard to grow when there are legions of people who want to give you a hard time for simply existing online... especially when it's the people who once looked up to you.
