    I think that mentality is what allowed this to happen in the first place.

    But if you believe that its ok for someone to tell a teenager they should commit suicide and get raped because they’re female and playing a video game, I want no part of your level of comfort with the vitriol of these harassers.

      You seem to obsess over emotions and words. Nobody in this conversation thinks it’s ok to say bad shit like that to somebody. But I also don’t care if they do. Again, it’s pretty easy to block idiots and move on. Why would anybody let some dip shit stranger who probably lives 5000 miles away in his aunt’s basement bother them

        if you don’t care, why comment?

        also, if you’re not able to differentiate between trash talking and going way too far, then you have far more issues than a simple online misunderstanding.

      Where did I say it was ok? It’s obviously not ok, that goes without saying. You seem to be focused on what happened and missing my point. This is the reality of the internet. It’s been that way my whole life. As long as you can remain anonymous people will do horrible shit. They can ban as many players as they want, it’s not going to change shit. Trying to force people to behave will never work.

        I am focused on what your saying. your cynicism doesn’t mean the issue is impossible to fix. it just means you’re cynical. but if people could be less accepting of it, maybe things can change.
