The 5 worst gaming communities [Video]

[Axel]

and flaming will just prove my point.

True 'dat.

I would agree with your 5 picks, although I would say the gears of war community should be in there too, they're pretty bad for rage quitting, and the usual abusive stuff plus: "omg host noob", "omg active noob". I'd say they'd be either 1st or 2nd on the list.

**** me man, the Gears community is full of very angry people haha. In my experience, the stereotypical Gears player hates Halo because it's 'too childish' and are terrible at COD, so they only play Gears, which we all know is iffy online, so they mature into OTT angry people. I've ran into people that have literally screeched down the mic at me because I've gone around a corner, hit a guy, and panic double B buttoned them, if you play Gears you'll know how frowned down upon. And yeah, like you said about host advantage.

On the actual topic, yeah I pretty much agree, I only ever play L4D with at least one friend so if something wrong happens and the vote to kick buttons comes up, we can always down vote. Like Fez said, with Halo I feel more a part of a community if you run into friendly people, but if you ran into idiots/squeakers, it puts me off playing so much

Sonic the hedgehog Fanbase. i lol'ed at the WoW comment

[Fez]

Fallout fanboys can be harsh sometimes too.

World of Warcraft gets annoying sometimes, most of the time when I ask a more experienced player they either respond or don't but sometimes when I'm just minding my own business, I get hate comments, like "OMG NOOB!!! HAHA!!!". And I agree with the rest too.

Yeah, alot of the people on gears think they're mlg pro lol, and if you do anything remotely not 'pro' you get loaddds of abuse. It was alot worse too when the xbox still had the 'private chat glitch', used to get spammed sooo much. But saying that, gears 1 was amazing, its a shame they ruined it in the sequel's multiplayer, although apparently its not as bad anymore.


Oh yeah, the runescape community is pretty horrible too, full of children who think, because, theyve spent pointless hours on the game getting up levels they're amazing, and ive never met anyone who is willing to help with anything.

Private chat glitch? Never heard of that one, what happens?

[Camy]

Private chat glitch? Never heard of that one, what happens?

Before they patched it, instead of pressing 'invite to private chat' once and it going to private chat, you could press it loads of times rapidly before it went into private chat, making hundreds of the 'blahblah has invited you to private chat' things come up on their screen. If you got 2 or 3 people to do it at the same time you could break their account basically lol, they wouldnt be able to send or receive messages for at least a fortnight.
