Before the internet was mainstream, I dreamt that online games would be amazing, civilized activities. Now I want nothing to do with what it became, and this is coming from a guy. It’s like being a gamer became an identity, people take playing games too serious and there’s virtually no punishment for being a dick. I’ve seen more mature 12 year-olds than some of these adults.
I think you hit the nail on the head. There is almost no recourse for anyone being a dick, and some people consider it part of their “strategy” to get under people’s skin.
