Is it me or are forums filled with bitter people?

[Nest]

Because people are not allowed to like things others dont like.

[Airwaves]

Why are people bitter on forums? Cause they have a monitor in front of them instead of the actual person.

You haven't meet someone like me IRL then.

Afaik there's still that MLP spamthread going on, you can go tehre to get your daily dose of fake happyness and general circlejerking.

[Airwaves]

You can always tell who is a basement dweller with little life experience by the tone of their opinions.

You do realise 99% of the world doesn't even have basements? I don't know a single aussie or even an aussie house that has one.

The edgy/too cool for school types like you make me laugh every time.

After seeing a poll here about friendship, where a substantial amount of the votes went to "I have no friends", I wouldn't be surprised if someone proved that this place is a less than average joyous forum.

Being rational is what kids call "too cool for school" today? Alrighty then...

Sometimes that statement comes from their own experiences.

People with friends already have people to discuss with it seems.

It's not just you OP. Why these bitter people continue to post nothing but negative comments, clinging to a game that they clearly hate baffles me. It's like the guy who can't get over his ex. It's weird and quite frankly seems unhealthy.

[yjmark]

Well, I think a lot of it is that people use forums as a place where they can easily vocally discuss their frustrations with many others. If you think about it, there were no venues like that before. So, they come here to vent. When they find they are getting support and others agree, they continue. So, here we are.

[Stonecloak]

Compared to the huge amount of blind Blizzard fanboys, there aren't all that many bitter people.

Or wait, hold on... You probably mean that everyone who doesn't jump with joy at every fart Blizzard poots comes across as bitter?

Yes, because liking a decision made by Blizz means your a fanboy. What of the people who hate the game and still play? Or don't play the game at all, and still spew hate every chance they get? Who sounds like the crazy one here, but talking sense to you seems futile. I already regret posting it.

Way of the World

At the end of the day we are just nerds who think wasting there time bitching about a video game matters

Trust me im guilty as charged and would spend hours and hours debating shitty written lore and slapdash instances

but hey ho

The world is filled with bitter people, listening and reading about bitter people creates more bitter people. It's an endless cycle.

Same goes for being happy, but it's harder to be happy then to be bitter.

Its not that hard, just find joy in the small things.

Thats how you manage to be happy.

In forums and outside :P

I find it worrying that you stalk the MLP thread.

You've been a source of nothing positive these last few days, and you keep coming despite having jumped on the ESO train.

the argument of "if you are complaining about the game then just quit" is stupid. some people have been playing this game for years and its become a part of their life, so if they are unhappy with something changing in the game then they are going to complain and voice their opinion on the matter on the forums. it doesn't mean they are "bitter people who should leave the game"

the real annoying people are people like OP.

[Haven2011]

I think it's best to over look so ppl

I see that not many people voted at all, so it might not be representative for the community, but still depressing

[Auggers]

It's because it doesn't matter what you say or what you do there is always going to be somebody that gets offended or doesn't agree and they are going to voice their opinion about that disagreement. On the internet, it's easier to complain than to say thank you. In the case of any changes that somebody does like that Blizzard make then they aren't going to come to the internet and complain, they are going to agree and keep playing, while a person that disagrees will make a point of going and making sure that there are other like minded people, like them, that will start to complain and hope that the change does not happen.
