    Nerdrage

    I am bored and just wondering who here actually gets angry or annoyed when losing battles on WoW, whether it is duels or raid bosses.
    Be honest, do you nerdrage?
    please, share your stories/opinions etc

    Personally, i tend to be calm until i lose an arena match only due to the fault of somebody else on my team, or somebody disconects before a match.

    I get agitated when I wipe on a boss for the 1000th time :P
    I nerd rage on League of Legends, however... I have a broken U key, (the button has gone and it's just the little rubbery bit underneath left) and a battered touchpad ( although i don't know 100% how that happened.... )

    I nerd rage on LoL too, and then I stop playing for the day. Get back on the next day, rinse and repeat.

    I don't nerd rage much on WoW though.

    As wg15 said. Especially with the very long BG queues, and people running around like headless chickens.

    I also get a bit annoyed when I kill bosses a lot of times, and no loot I need drops. Then, the one day I don't raid, all that loot gets DE'd. Damn the RNG gods !

    I rage during raiding, if I am having issues. I normally want to just have zero learning curve, but that doesn't always happen so I get really mad at myself.

    After wiping on nef Phase 3 38 times I threw my headphones so hard they broke my window.

    I usually rage in battlegrounds for obvious reasons. When it requires 10 alliance players to kill 3 horde players, or when EOTS is lost for the 56 time because people think capping the flag once will turn the battle instead of going for the bases.

    But yeah, arena can piss me off too. It happens with random partners who claim to be 2k+ rated, but can't play worth 1500. I once falcon punched a keyboard into nothing, because the shut down button was right next to the shift button. It was a 40 minute match which we were about to win. Luckily I didn't care about that keyboard, because of that exact problem I had bought another previously.

    But I also nerdrage on myself if I fuck up in arena.

    And PVE has never, EVER bothered me. Not even after wiping 1203912039012 time on M'uru or LK HC. It's all good in the hood.

    It's odd, because I NEVER get pissed off when playing any other game.

    I nerdrage when I DC in the middle of a boss fight or in an arena match that's otherwise going well. And with my unstable net that happens quite a lot. I'm surprised that my headset hasn't given up yet after the frequent encounters with the wall.

    Never.. It doesn't get to me irl.. When i raidlead, i can yell and call people retards, but it's just how i raidlead.. Works much better in the heat of battle than asking people politely. It's more of an act than actual rage, so no, i dont rage over wow.

    I nerd rage if we're winning a BG by a large amount, mostly to relieve built up tension and get some laughs going. :P
