there's not many stupid people here but if you want to make a change wear the [KEN] tag its from a machinima director called Ken burton.
He's running a campaign to Keep everything nice or KEN basically just to get people to stop being idiots.

That probably won't even make the slightest change. You'd have to explain what the tag means to everyone, and your average guy probably wouldn't even care.

That's the thing, though. It may be worth a try, but no one is actually trying. The whole thing is just an excuse to be pretentious, so you can say you're better than those two people arguing on MW2.

I don't think we can change what those kind of people say by using a tag which 3/4 of the people playing won't even understand. It's pretty sad because the argument that the ones insulting are teens who get angry is untrue, most of the people I hear raging on others sound like adults in the mid 30's. With that said, those people should give the example knowing that teenagers under 18 are playing those kind of games.

There is no reason for this topic except for me to go all out on this. I have been playing a couple of FPS game in multiplayer and specially Modern Warfare 2 lately and noticed that the IQ level to play this game is very low. Let me explain, I have NOT ONCE joined a game without someone calling people names, talking about their mothers in diminishing ways and and what not. Yesterday I joined a couple of games and the new ongoing insult was my country is better than yours at the Olympics... Each time I play I have to downgrade my intellect to be able to support these moronic acts and it takes away the fun of multiplayer games. Last night I told someone to calm down a bit and be respectfull, the only thing I got for that is him starting to insult me so badly he sounded like he had Down's syndrome.

So in conclusion, when was the point when playing muliplayer games made people regress mentally?

maybe its because multi-player games r a good way too work off the excess energy or to give vent to one's frustration for lack of control out here in the real world. but yes..no need to get abusive.

I am 15, 16 in half an hour though. Yet still, through my game experience it is normally the younger people who argue and swear. It really annoys me, it just furthers my hate of most human people.
