Ever been killed by a player and watch the chat erupt with, "gg10 eZ rekt" messages? I am pretty sure that many players have had this occur to them, and while it is definitely annoying, there are other ways of going about the situation then making a status complaining. Below are just some personal thoughts and ideas regarding the subject..

My first note would be relating to 'unfair deaths'. I'm sure everyone has had a 'cheap' death, whether it be a cleanup, or a huge team. First and foremost, you have to remember that as you play more and more, your ratio, points, and other statistics are slowly going to dissipate; nobody can ever have 'perfect statistics' without some unfair means (i.e, boosting, hacking, etc.) If you do end up dying to teams, or anything of the sort, just accept it and move on. Even if you die to a five player hacking team, just move on! What good are you doing yourself by thinking, "wow dis gaem suks, 2 meny hckrs, am quitin!11!!" Just say 'gg' and leave the game; even if it wasn't you aren't doing anyone any favours by whining about it.

Now onto the actual body of this thread. Have you ever died, and got instantly bombarded with a wall of text amongst the lines of, "eZ l2p nab 10"? If you have, you should be proud of that fact. He/she/they just want your attention, and if you are willing to give them the satisfaction of knowing you got pissed at them, then you are only succumbing to what they originally wanted. Just leave the game, rather then wait for him/her/them to die and flood them with "lel nab fgt bich 1v1 meh". If you don't give them that satisfaction, then they just essentially wasted their time trying to aggravate you, and you don't have to stoop to their level.

Lastly, don't rage. It's a virtual game for God's sake, people! Why would you get mad at a computer screen because a blob of pixels killed you? It definitely isn't the super bowl, and there is absolutely no reason for you to whine over any of your deaths. If you are just continually getting pissed off because this game irritates you, just leave Minecraft for awhile. It's a game, and people need to realize that. Obviously everyone rages (myself included), which is perfectly fine because we need to vent out every once in awhile, but if you are raging every time you die, then I think you may been to find a new game or server to play, because if you don't take care of it now, it will soon escalate to something uncontrollable.

Those were just my thoughts on the whole situation. Again, just don't let any of it bother you. As aforementioned, it is just a virtual game bundled with a few kids who want to see others lose their patience and rage. Don't stoop to their level, folks. Just play the game as it should be played - you may be surprised how much more fun it is.

I finally found a new one today. I did /kill in DM when I had full leather on Avaricia and the other two were a full iron team. Both teammates said "gg n00b." In a swift motion of rage, I kicked the wall. SCREW that. How the HELL does that justify saying gg/gf? I did your work for you because I was a little chicken. If anything, they should've left it at bf/bg or just "n00b". But good game? Specifically directed at me? ARE YOU *HIGH*?

This is the kind of folk MCGamer seems to be attracting these days. A Tekkit server would definitely do some good in this mosh pit. -_-

Some people are nice and somepeople have no respect at all
.eg people like you guys are awesome and some try harders say that to a noobie team gg12 get eggrolled. Even though this is a game there are two types of people everywhere nothing can't be perfect but those try harders annoy the sh•• out of me.

Yep, it is usually best to just shake it off. Every once in a while though, I let someone know they are not cool, and it usually backfires. Just yesterday I was playing on Icarus and I fought a guy on the northern island. I chased him around for a while when he was extremely low then his teammate popped out of nowhere and knocked me off the edge. I was about to leave when some guy I didn't even know said "gg 2ez." He said he didn't even play, but apparently he still had the right to brag about my death. I told him to just stop but he wouldn't listen and starting calling me a Christian like it was the biggest insult ever, then he started bragging about his own statistics for some odd reason.

People are just... stupid. I try not to understand why they could have such messed up mental processes. It's nothing to get upset over, but it was pretty funny.

Lastly, don't rage. It's a virtual game for God's sake, people! Why would you get mad at a computer screen because a blob of pixels killed you?

I'm gonna have to disagree with you here. I argue that Minecraft may be a game, but games are part of real life just like the NBA and presidential elections are. You could also argue that life is just a game with really good graphics.

Many of us have spent weeks playing this game, so if we want to get angry about something every once in a while, that's okay. Getting mad every game probably isn't healthy, though. The most ironic thing is how in the community corner everyone gets all chummy like they are just best buddies for life. Then when there are disagreements everyone starts talking about MCSG like it's a pointless thing with no lasting value meanwhile trying to impress people they will never meet. I think interactions online are just as valid as real life interactions. I do want to be seen here as a decent person, though I will never meet any of you. Ever cried in a movie, or gotten angry cause a book had a bad ending? This isn't much different. It's all part of reality.

Besides leaving the game, you could press F1, if for some reason you wanted to stay on.

What do you mean? If you press F1, you won't be able to see the chat. It's not a command.
He means you wouldn't be able to see commands and information in chat, although that might not matter if you only want to watch.
