Tension that doesn't even need to exist when we're playing a game that other people invest their time into with no compensation expected from it. Instead they have to take this kind of crap? I understand feeling so strongly about the game that you only want the best for it, but is it really so bad that it merits the kind of things that have been said?**
You'd think the way some people talk that the game is their car they're letting somebody else drive, and the somebody else never bothers to give it an oil change or put water in it... instead we're driving somebody else's car, the owner of the car else changes the oil and puts gas into it at their expense, but people are complaining because the owner doesn't take it RIGHT WHEN we complain and vacuum our dirt out of it, or give a paint job because we don't like the color.
A sense of ownership is good up to a point, but it can go too far.
Incidentally, getting back to topic, anybody else notice somebody developing an unhealthy obsession with a certain other person?
**Not referring to you on that point Elseenas, sorry.
