This is a lesson i learnt on Dota. The game has far to many toxic players, or people giving up way too easily. I just started muting anyone the second they give the slightest hint of insulting a teammate. The vibes are so much better now.
There’s a big difference between a game and the open and free exchange of ideas on social media. If someone is actively harassing you, sure, but if you just keep muting anyone you don’t like or that disagrees with you, then you are definitely part of the problem and might as well just shut the curtains and lock yourself in your apartment and never speak to anyone ever again.
Sushi is not giving people they consider to be toxic the time of day and it improved their life.
You response it to take it out of context and tell them to lock themselves away.
When you are accusing someone of being “the problem” is your face being reflected back to you in the screen.
There is a bit of a difference between shutting out every other opinion on everything and taking some perhaps extreme steps to avoid having to deal with annoying people in a game famous for having a lot of annoying people.
My god did Dota earn its reputation. For a game where matches last 45 mins average, its insane how often people claim its over at 10 mins, even when we’re not losing, just because they had a bad game.
Less so anyone that agrees with me, more once someone starts blaming teammates for a loss that hasn’t happened yet, or really says anything that is exclusively an insult to a teammate. I found once people throw their first insult they almost never recover, its bad for morale and makes the game less fun.
Though yeah, doing it in-game is a bit different than social media. Though its the same idea.
