I don't think you get it. We are not going "ohhh sooo many entitled carebears, we must gank!". We are ganking for fun, just the target rich environment happens to contain a lot of entitled carebears who cry a lot about it, which we find amusing, which further encourages us to return to the same location next time around. You are the one that is turning it into some diabolical hate campaign, we are just playing a game, where spaceships blow up. Get over it.

So watching someone else in distress is amusing to you?

That's good to know, about your personalities and stuff.

Most of the people that play this game are idiots....complete and total sociopaths as Dinsdale put it. These people likely have to be upstanding citizens in real life and go to work and do a good job but as soon as get get home, they get to be who they really are inside.

People who have no power in their lives, will try to exert power over others in a video game. None of them are kings in real life, so wearing the king douche hat in a video game will have to suffice for them. Its the only way they can manage their meek and cowardly existence.

Terms such as "HTFU" and "Carebear" or the most popular "Butthurt" perhaps weren't coined by, but certainly enjoyed by the meek and cowardly population of EVE/Dust in order to make themselves feel better about things they know are doing wrong. They must assume a fake sense of bravado and puff out their internet chests and tell you to HARDEN THE F!_!CK UP if you don't like it.

No, playing a PVP game where you blow up other ships is amusing to me. Someone flipping out because they can't separate a game from their emotions is just a bonus.

if you're in distress when some one blows up your internet spaceship i advise you seek professional help for the myriad of mental issues you quite clearly have.

I would suggest that to the person who is in distress as well, but also to the person who is deriving enjoyment about being the cause of it, and actively seeking an opportunity to cause it again.

So yes.

OK thanks for clarifying.

lol, if that's how you want to take that, go right ahead. I'm perfectly happy with my mental stability. I would however question yours if you are in the aforementioned group of people unable to separate a video game from their real life emotional state.

TIL: if you enjoy playing video games, you should seek a mental health specialist.

Well while you're free to come up with whatever knowledge you wish to extract based on your own misconceptions, it wasn't the intention of my post which should be easily discernible considering the issue I'm clearly addressing is the desire to recreate the feeling of distress that potentially mentally ill person is exhibiting.

How is it that you can go harvesting tears, and enjoy that, and it's all good and worthy and HTFU or something, but when someone gets buttmad, they are wrong, bad for the game, should quit, and are deemed "unstable" for being unable to "separate a game from their emotions"

But that emotion you feel when you gank some "entitled carebear" is real. Why bother in a game to get these "tears"? You can use a game to achieve certain emotions but your victim is not allowed? And then at the same time, if you do tee someone off, you will use it as an excuse and blame the victim for not "separating a game from their emotions" when you are the one enjoying it (an emotion) and seeking an emotion?

While you might be inclined to think that people who "can't HTFU" will be the ones leaving the game, it's really going to be the people who just don't want any association with people having that kind of twisted thought process. It's bad enough we have to put up with such personalities running the real world.

In all honesty, I can't see how there is anyway that you aren't laughed at by anyone you fly with.
I bet they all cringe at your whiney voice and endless empty self-justification over voice comm.

I mean seriously, AWOXing you would be worth it, just for the unbelievable butthurt and bleed it would result in here and everywhere as you run around like a headless chicken trying to make heads or tails of why nobody likes you.

What emotion? I find it entraining, sure, but no more than any other game. I'm not collapsing on the floor in hysterics screaming "oh god look at the entitlement! MUA HA HA HA HA!".

Let me put it this way. I play a game for fun. They play a game for fun. The game is competetive. If they get legitimately upset with losing in a video game, maybe they need to find a new source of entertainment. We certainly shouldn't just close off the sandbox because some people want to shoot red crosses and never get interrupted, and when people get as riled up about it as some of them do, they need serious professional help.

I quite literally couldn't care any less about who leaves the game and who doesn't. It's a game, it's played for enjoyment. If you don't get enjoyment, stop playing. Simple.

and when people get as riled up about it as some of them do, they need serious professional help.

So if you honestly feel that these people who get upset need "serious professional help", what type of person are you who laughs at them, people who you feel need "professional serious help"?

Idk man I never paused to reflect on the emotional state of my opposing team in LOL or DOTA2. Or thought twice about that guy I just scored a sweet 360 No Scope on in BF4.

If people get emotionally distressed over video games they probably ought to unplug and do something else.
