People in online games are crazy

So here's my story: I can't play games online, the people are just too insane for me.  First I though "Gee, I like RPGs maybe I should try an MMORPG."  So I did, and it was pretty cool at first, I found some neat people to group with and all was well.  I come back after maybe a day and a half break and I notice Dude is online so I send a message asking to try that quest we were having trouble with the other day.  Ignored.  Well I later find out I was not ignored, he was not only 15-20 levels ahead of me now but also running a macro to repeatedly kill a certain creature a certain way to maximize his percent drop of a specific item he was looking for.  I am just here to have fun.  This happened (or a similar faximilie thereof) over and over.

So then I thought "Gee, I like RTS maybe I should play some of those online."  Mistake, not one match lasted over 5 min. where I had a unit and a building and was attacked with a fully teched up entire battalian of top tier units (exagertation, but the point is made).  That didn't bother me so much but what did is everyone, ever last person (not an exageration) did the same attack, in the same way.

Next I was thinking "Well, maybe I could try FPS."  That also didn't go well.  It seems that no matter which game, or class I choose I am 'supposed' to preform a specific task such as throwing gernades down a hallway for the whole round (I kid you not I was told to do that so that no one could come down it) or else I would just be kicked.

Is it just my bad luck that finds these people?

Is it just the nature of online games that make people completly insane, or insane people just drawn to them?

Is there any place for a sane person who has a full time job and just wants to have fun, not maximize his score or loot or ladder rank, to play games online?

Play the Wii online.

Not only is it not serious at all, but you don't have to worry about people going crazy over such trivial things. The only down side to it is the whole Friend Code thing, that and the lack of being able to really talk to anyone, unless you have Wiispeak that is.

If you get good at online games, you can hold your own.

MMORPG's are more fun with people you know in real life. Online RTS's are only for insane people. FPS's, on the other hand, can be good. I dunno what FPS you were playing, but it sounds like it sucks. in order to keep spamming nades for the whole match you must have had unlimited nades, which totally breaks a game.

PSN players arent bad at all,at least from the games Iv played.Besides not many people on there have mics.
