You know, I was just playing Battlefield Heroes a moment ago. And I realized just how rude people can be these days. Now I'm not person to ruin the fun of playing around, but some people just take things way too far. They aren't messing around. They are intentionally intimidating you. And for what? Their amusement? It's real bullshit, and even though he eventually shut his damn mouth and left, I still have a problem with people like that. They are just bitching bitches that do nothing but bitch, and it really pisses me off. This blog post isn't just me whining to you, but it's... ok, you decide what it is. OTHER than whining. Please. Seriously.

So I was just playing Battlefield Heroes like I normally do. It was a few of my National friends playing around. All of a sudden, a Royal shows up. Which wasn't a problem, but he started causing problems. He kills me, so I leave for a minute to get some stuff to play serious. And then I start killing him a bunch, and he starts whining. He's saying how it's not fair because I was stealthed (I was playing as a Commando, as usual). So I politely explained how he could of prevented his death. And I killed him again. And twice more. Now, I didn't say anything annoying or offending that would've made him mad, but he starts going off. He calls me a noob, even though he's the noob getting killed over and over again. And then starts talking about how I can't run a clan (because I recently started, and ended one). And he says I don't have a life because I couldn't run it. I tell him that I have more important things in life than video games and running a clan, but he just won't stop bitching. Eventually, I tell him off and he leaves, but he just didn't seem to get it.

And this is one of many times I've come across people like this, both online and offline. People like this just really annoy me. They bitch at you and try to degrade you, and all just to make you feel bad. Or in this case, make them feel better about themselves. While I certainly don't mind joking around, stuff like this just goes too far. It's inentional, it's offensive, and it's just crap. Crap that I get tired of every day. Just go to my school for a day, and see everybody trying to pick on the nerds and people who can't defend themselves, intentionally. No mercy. (Which is not me, by the way.) It's very far that we've come this far and are like this. Once again, joking around is ok and fine with me, but when you intentionally try to degrade someone like that, it's not funny, and it's bullshit.

I don't know why people do this. Why do they want to pick on people? What do they gain from it? In the end, they gain nothing, but someone could lose everything. I've just gotten tired of it, and I wanted to get it off my back and share it with some people. It might not change, but it needs to stop to some point. That's what I think.
 
EDIT: Can we get this locked up? It was someone's brilliant idea to bring this back, and it's... well it's so old and irrelevant, I guess you could say.
