I’d point out your own comment:
“…play the same games or even be interested it is, I mean I dislike 40K as the rules suck…”
Such a statement is childish, disrespectful and arrogant.
It insults those people who have worked on the game, the players who enjoy it and contradicts your own post, where you think the fora have become more hostile places. You’re ‘part of the problem’ with that sort of attitude.
Whenever some oaf pops their ‘That’s crap’ or the putrid ‘drekmarines’,
or ‘Well they shouldn’t have bothered’
or ‘showed him up with a hat that’s just as silly as the skelepope… into a romper suit…’
or ‘…abysmal model that is completely overpowered to encourage sales as even the designer knows its down there with the razor gor in the list of bad models that should have seen the designer sacked…’
or ‘r looks so unbelievable Stupid…’
or… I could go on citing example after pathetic, I’m 14 and think I matter; example
Leaving aside the illiteracy, their cry of ‘I’m entitled to an opinion, and I’ll say what I like’ attitude is the problem. When corrected, the reflexive attack – because, as always, it’s easier to hit back to protect yourself when you’re told you’re wrong than accept you are – few can distinguish between ‘I did a bad thing and *I* am bad, so ego rules everything. The injured child takes over because the injured child has needed recognition. I know for a fact most of the people who spew such retorts on the comments wouldn’t dare say so in real life because they are, at heart, cowards who know they’re wrong.
The truth is that you *don’t* have the right to insult other people’s work, that you *don’t* have the automatic ability to deride and decry publicly just to urinate your own ill-thought out nonsense just to ensure you, great and glorious you are acknowleged as existing!
Where’s this going? You started off complaining about the hostility on the interweb. I’m trying to show you – in your own post – that you’re the cause. We’re – everytime we run down other people’s efforts – the cause.
No doubt someone will complain this is a ‘wall’ of text, because apparently reading is hard now. As usual, what that person means is ‘I am too lazy to read and think, so I will blame someone else.’ You see? Ego. Sadly, this refusal of responsibility and common decency can be seen everywhere.
