Why would I hate the easiest people to troll on the internet? It is kind of funny listening to some kid rage because I'm tea bagging him and saying "I'm MLG PROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

You say tomato; I say potato.

Because they're different.

Only the ones who think they're superior are bad. I hate getting cussed out in a lobby after my team of casual friends destroy their "super MLG Pro" team.

OP - You're a dumbass with the reading comprehension skills of a second grader.


Can someone tell me what's wrong with these two, this made me LOL hard.

I don't hate the players. I hate that they use video gaming to prove how "awesome" they are compared to other players. It's like they have a superiority complex or something.

My poorly-named friend, you are misreading.

We do not hate MLG gamers.

We hate tryhards who fancy themselves "MLG gamers".

MLG is fine, but like others said, the game shouldn't cater to them and they shouldn't expect it to.
The beef we really have is with the ones that do.

The ones who thing MLG is the ONLY way to play a game and that games should listen to only the MLG community when designing a game, doing anything different just makes the designers "idiots".


THOSE GUYS we hate, in fact I think everyone hates those guys.

You imply a level of control over Halo: Reach matchmaking that we no longer have. Or, in your vernacular, it isn't our shiznit anymore.

I don't hate MLG players, I majority of the ones I have communicated with are overly competitive people that I do not like though.

I think of MLG guys as the rappers of the gaming world. No real skill outside of the one piece of entertainment that they devoted their life to. I'm a little bit of an academic, so I just feel like their lives are pointless.

But that's not a stereotype, that's a side effect from being part of a hated group of people.

"Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind." - Albert Einstien

Most hate MLG players because of how they have been represented on the forums (by real and/or fake MLG members). A majority of those claiming to be MLG in the past have been stubborn, dismissing of other's opinions and downright rude. They usually believe their solution is the end all be all and that games should be more about your statistical performance rather than just mechanically enjoyable.

They also assume their prowess at playing the game makes their opinions on mechanics and game design more valid when in reality such players are good at finding exploits/bugs rather than balancing them out.

So if I am a brony that means I am automatically socially akward, along with many other things?

Its a stereotype, and there are tons of them here on Bungie.net.

I don't hate MLG, but I hate how it has become such an ego filled cesspool of arrogance and competitiveness that leads to people believing sportsmanship is a thing of the past and that nowadays you must hate your opponent.

That's my impression of the impact MLG has had on gaming. I cannot play a game and be in a public lobby without being insult, and cursed at just for beating people.

That

The thing is, I see MLG kiDz (real or wannabe's - don't know, just GT's & clantags proclaiming it) all the time in other game(s), and they typically suck at them. Badly.

But as Kick stated, it's the whole over blown ego mindset that makes many who claim 'I'm MLG Proz' hated because of their unwillingness to just let it go, and PLAY. There is no need of trying to intimidate others in a game. If you're going to beat me/my friends, shut up and prove it.

Post game lobbies of them after they have been wrecked are very gratifying.
This is true of any loud mouth arrogant people, not just MLG specifically.

I heard someone say once (paraphrasing here) "Multiflag on Blood Gulch with your friends is what makes Halo, Halo." I GUARANTEE that more people agree with that sentiment than "Getting a 50 in MLG is what makes Halo, Halo." - Oboewan42

Because posts like this made up 85% of the Halo 2 forum.

And because stomping out MLG kiddies stopped being funny after the 50th hate spam message

That's what a stereotype is, doesn't mean seeing someone as an inferior being is a stereotype.

Also stop stereotyping everyone who isn't a brony.
