Re: 21
Having read your comments further down the thread, I think I do understand where you're coming from. I've had similar problems -- to a lesser degree than you, but... yes, there are some less-than-pleasant people in the game. There are some people I'm not comfortable playing with anymore. I know what it's like to be scared of jumping new people. I know the game in general is not all sunshine and puppies and rainbows, and I am perfectly okay with acknowledging that, or with other people acknowledging that.
However, if you wanted to solve these problems, or at least not exacerbate them, this was exactly the wrong way to go about it. If you say "You guys are all terrible human beings and I hate you!" of course people are going to get defensive. And it's a self-fulfilling prophecy, because you'll point to all the people reacting (with, admittedly... varying degrees of civility) to what you said and go "See? See? I'm getting dogpiled because CFUDers can't stand when anyone insults their precious game! It's so typical of them!" Which... I guess it is, but only because it's only human to be upset when someone piles insults on a group of people of which you are a part. I'd like to think it's because of this that people are reacting the way they are, not because we can't stand when anyone implies that, omg, CFUD might not be all rainbows and sunshine and puppies!!!
... Then again, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe people will flame me for having said what I did in this comment, and if that's the case, then I'll humbly concede that you're right. But I really do think that how you're saying what you're saying is, at the very least, not improving the situation.
Sorry, I didn't mean to tl;dr there. Next time, I'll try to keep my thoughts more succinct.
