>>716083482 (OP)I want to be real with not just you, OP, but to everyone ITT. I played in lobbies of old, I remember finding games with built in mute buttons or vote mutes, and I remember when you didn't have that and yet still were annoyed I would just server hop. Sometimes, once in a blue moon, I'd either try to rise to the challenge of my bully or just ignore it. Does it make me weak for DCing out of the game? Nah, I don't think so. But that was because back then that level of shitflinging wasn't acted on by bans or reports, you'd just be howling to the void.
We live in a day and age where you don't have to put up with that shit. You were strong for not buckling back then because you got to keep playing the game you wanted to, but now you can and you can make the annoying faggots go away. Sure I like banter but there's a clear line between bantz and actual verbal abuse, and if a motherfucker wants to mouth off and bother me in 2025 when this shit is a bannable offense, I don't think I'm a bitch for doing it. If someone on /v/ derails a thread with Spiderman or falseflag spamming I won't just pack up and leave, I'll report their asses to get it to stop. Why should the actual video games be any different?
