So i did an experiment without telling anyone and tried bad mouthing their favorite game to gauge their reactions and here are my findings:
Players have zero self control and seem to be aggressive if their game is threatened or flaws in it pointed out. Then there's the comments upon which i observed, some were nice while others were not pleasant. I applaud the players who were well mannered and spoke kindly, as the other half were outright rude. I give the kind ones a passing grade, the rude ones get a failing grade. So it seems this site has its pros and cons as well, though the cons far outweigh the pros.
The words "idiot and scrub" and other obscenities were directed at me for no reason and were highly unnecessary. It seems any opinion is met with aggressive and vulgar comments, which i highly detest. But even after i told them it wasn't my real feelings about it, they took to a negative attitude towards me and kept going with such disrespect.
______________
And this is what i get as a response for my criticism:
"I'd go with highly opinionated and emotional, instead of rude and obscene, personally. The difference being that this is the internets, and in the internets where there is little to no chance of repercussion people write exactly how they want to in order to make themselves feel superior. They also very rarely apply any logic to what they are saying, merely spewing forth whatever happens to be crossing their minds upon first reading something.
With that in mind, you should realize that the majority of the people who really comment on these forums regularly find it much easier to criticize negatively instead of actually taking the time to think through a response which might further the conversation.
The summation of the above is that you're an idiot."
Final Grade: D-
