Yeah... I also loved how he started to storm off then realised that there might be a chance he could win so came back to his seat which just made him more angry when he inevitably lost.

if you're in a clan with someone then i think you should begin to call one-another by real names. it's just a bit more personal, you know.

well on the basis of numbers, i think it is the quake community that are the weird ones with this example

edit: I also think saying Rahul, Jasper, Florian, Mats, and a Finnish name I'm not even sure how to pronounce would be a bit weird, and I'm generally into nerdy shit.

when u meet them in game u use nicks. at what point do u change? using real names feels unnatural to me when u are introduced to someone by their nick. in the same way it feels weird when someone calls me Mr. Surname instead of just my first name.

when you communicate with someone vocally it's a lot more personal than text. just the more you get to know someone the more and more it becomes weird to call them 'lobster'

I can understand his frustration. It's rare to see players in Quake doing something like that, because everything they do in a game is dependent on skill. The worst luck you could have really is just spawns.

In WoW, it's worse. It's essentially just rolling dice. You can have a team that is arguably better than the other one, but yet they can still lose. They could have misses/dodges/resists on their crucial attacks that do the most damage (Like having a resist/doge on an attack from a rogue that just uses all 5 combo points he saved) and that could happen over and over.

I don't know every little detail on it, but from my understanding, that's where the frustration comes from. Think about if our rail shots had a 20% miss chance even if it was a direct hit. If someone is down by 1 frag in the last 10 seconds, and they hit them 3 times with the rail, but that 20% miss was in effect, and ALL THREE missed because of the game, I guarantee you they'd flip out like Swarm from SK or Celex from Gravitas.

Of course, I'm not making excuses for them, but I know a lot of people hate WoW, and don't know a thing about it.
