Why are we all so negative?:/

about 9 years

So over the past few months that I have been playing Epic Mafia, I have realized that we are all so negative. We constantly try to bring someone down if they mishammer (I myself have done this), instead of trying to help the player grow. We all have had opportunities to bond over a common interest of a game, yet we mock how we each of us looks in picspls. We hate players that are better than us, because we can't stand the fact of losing to someone WHILE we should be trying to learn how to get better we miss an opportunity due to pride. I think this whole website would be much more cohesive, fun, and far less dramatic if we tried to make it more about playing the game and becoming a stronger player than filling it with nonsense gossip left and right. I have been guilty of many of these things, but I feel like it's time for a positive change that will make this website far less stressful and way more fun! Anyways I may sound like an idealist, but I just want to plant the idea in your mind that next time a player makes a really obvious mistake instead of lashing out try to help them learn why what they did was wrong. If you see a picture of someone you don't deem attractive, just keep it to yourself we don't need to all know what you are thinking. If you think the mod team is bad, don't just sit there and complain either apply to be one or try to logically talk it through with some of the mod team THEY AREN'T EVIL.When someone comes to youth gossip, don't spread it end the chain there do not give a reaction as that is that will make the gossip spread even more. Anyways this is just a rant that will probably make no difference BUT atlas I tried! Good luck in yee gaming exploits!

Hmmm interesting point rutab, but don't you think it makes for a negative environment when we use the internet to lash out because we cannot.will not irl? I feel like it is toxic and does not help the player themselves grow as a person/player or those around him/her.

Some people exhibit negative behaviors as a retaliation for the anger and frustration they're having in their real life. There's less of an effect and less repercussions on an online environment than their ever will be in a real-life environment.
