This exchange happened in messages after a close BTB Heavy game on Rasu which we barely won by one point even though I got 46 kills with the Scorpion...


Guy who was on my team and went -14: damn you just stole everyones kills you f_cking tank whore

Me: You idiots would have lost if not for me.

Gwwomtaw-14: well first of all thats bullsh_t considering you STOLE everyones kills. we didnt need your help with getting them. and second we werent idiots we actually did sh_t while you were just whoring around with the tank

Me: I was busy winning the game while you were busy betraying people who took "your" Sniper and driving a Hog around without a gunner, you brain dead. It's a team game and I didn't "steal" sh_t.

Anyone who claims the AR takes skill ought to shoot himself in the head. Preferably with the AR because they'll most likely miss with any other weapon.

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

That's what happens when the game is casualized.

I don't need a specialized burger; I stack BKs on my own.

Um ya. You understand this game is populated by scrandoms who call you a cheater when you roflstomp their faces into the cement.

Two makes there more than speakers.

One game I used Active Camo, and someone on the other team just used Armor Lock. After the game he complained that I was using the Active Camo.

"Above average" in what regard, exactly? Based on your conversation, it appears that you operate on a similar level as the players you imply are somehow unintelligent. Now, I readily acknowledge that my judgement on the situation is based entirely on heresay, but for that being said, I am willing to make a ruling that your part in the interchange could have potentially been markedly more intelligent and mature. Specifically, the repeated name-calling and slights against your teammates' skill or mental functioning, as well as an attitude of blatant elitism.

But, I digress. If you you feel that you are indeed "above average," I will not tell you that you are wrong, because I do not know you. However, forgive me for not recognizing your profound intelligence based on the small glance into your mind that you have afforded me.

Maybe I wasn't exactly above average in my maturity level as far as letting this guy provoke me to respond, but when people perform so poorly that they might as well be working for the enemy team and then they insult me, I can lose my cool.

My overall stats clearly show I am an above average player, and I was certainly the MVP in that game.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

...46 kills?
That seems too high of a number, even for the average vehicle hog.
I am disappoint.

I'm not here to argue about whether you're a good player; frankly, I don't care, and neither should anyone else. That aspect is irrelevant. When the thread's title calls a player's intelligence into question, it ceases to be about skill and becomes a personal attack. My point to you is that you are effectively insinuating that other players are somehow less intelligent or mature than you, then showing yourself to be at their level or below.

And don't think that you can use their words or actions to justify how you react. To be smart and mature, even in the face of video-game idiocy, you have to recognize that you are independently responsible for your own actions, and behave accordingly.

Basically, if you intend on looking down your nose at players you meet on XBox Live, make sure you don't make yourself look like a fool in the process. (And this goes to everyone else, too.)

I responded to him really only because I thought it was so ridiculous that someone would attack a player on their own team for doing too well. It's not like I was on the enemy team and I stomped all over him.

It's not a personal attack, because as you can see, I never called the guy out by name and I won't.

I simply pasted a conversation with an extremely immature player who I think represents a large proportion of the Xbox Live population, a sore loser who has no regard for teamwork who accused me of stat-whoring and kill stealing when I was just trying to win the damn game.

He was rude, his logic is incoherent, and his in-game behavior was selfish and unintelligent.

While you didn't necessarily divulge names, you still (apparently) used words like "idiot" and "brain-dead" in reference to their behavior or words. Whether you were provoked or not, as I said, is irrelevant. While he may have acted immature (which I agree that he did) that does not vindicate your reciprocating immaturity.

I understand that there are players like this on Live, as I have met my own fair share. Instead of antagonizing or trolling them, I leave negative feedback and move on to a new match. Calling him names and responding to his childishness is not going to make him behave better; it makes you look just as bad as him.

XBox Live (and the rest of the internet) is full of children, many of them looking like adults. If you find their behavior so reprehensible, don't mimic it. This whole situation, which started with your initial argument with the player(s) and culminated into a thread-borne discussion on behavior could all have been avoided if you gave them the attention they initially deserved. Which is none.
