Dunno about you but one in every four BGs I get an alliance player saying (or gesturing) weird things like "you are the child of a motherless ogre" or "shoo, go away pest" and I am pretty sure I have never met these people in my life. Even on my faction (horde), I get players calling me stuff like "masochist" and "scrub" , and I am also sure I never met these people in my life as well. So anyways why do people act so negatively with me when they do not know who I am? Are they like this to everyone?

So many nasty and toxic people on BGs

Keyboard warriors, that's all
But I have to say, been playing league recently, and started ranked.
it makes wow look well like, a friendly environment to game in with people
Although Ive picked up some cracking insults for banter from it.

Standard PvP idiot who often forgets he was a freshly dinged toon once upon a time too.
Ignore and do your best, that's all you can do. Don't let them spoil/ruin your game.

Thats pretty much all about bravado and boasting.

XD. Wow is Leagues community that bad? Ive run into a few nasty people in League but i never thought it was that bad. Maybe its because I hav'nt played ranked yet. Originally Posted by Falrach

I don't think it's quite as bad as people make out. Sure you get a lot of people f'ing and blinding when things go wrong, but muting obvious flamers is the way to go. I've had some incredibly pleasant games in League where both teams were incredibly merry and bantered a lot. Last time I played a WoW BG no one spoke at all. Originally Posted by Fuji47

We had some nice discussion in my only BG last night. This formed a nice bond between us, which I'm sure helped in our trouncing of the Alliance.

It is internet mate, imagine an immature child (who prob gets bullied in RLF), who has no life but his video game, with no chance of facing any type of liabilities, ofc he will talk crap to you. You can either turn off BG chat, or dont let it get to you (aka don't go down to their level) and just make fun of those kids with a smug expression on ur face )
