The most humorless gaming community?
I don't mean toxic, but people who are easily offended and take everything deathly serious.

Two stand out for me: Resident Evil fans and controller-only people.

I've really only been harrassed and stalked online once...and, yeah, RE fans do not take you discussing the narrow FOV or movement speed lightly. lol

Also, I happened to mention something about preferring a kb & mouse to a controller one time, and I had dudes mocking me as if I was bragging about paying 200 bucks for a gaming mouse or something. Naturally, I found this hilarious as I use a cheap mouse that's 15 years old.

I guess I need to spend more time on the Witcher forums (or not), because I've never actually interacted with these people.

You don't mean to be toxic as you put it and yet you brought toxic examples to discuss on this forum instead? an interesting contradiction there. i've got no interest in help you spread your toxicity from one place to another.

what you choose to do and play is your choice, there is nothing to debate in that unless you are asking which this isn't.

Uh...are you being ironic and trying to start a fight? I can't tell anymore. That was sort of my point. Poe's Law strikes again.

Super competitive games with leagues and tournaments are always weird.

I'll disagree. At least if you consider Insurgency to qualify as a "sim." That was always an unusually chill group far as I recall. Only got kicked once, and it was for an accidental team killing.

Insurgency isn't quite a sim. I'd put it in about the same category of shooters as Rising Storm and Red Orchestra.

Doesn't that kind of prove the point? You got kicked for a single accidental team killing? Not a warning. But legit kicked.

I killed the dude capping a point in a close match, even though I knew a guy was there. It's a team-oriented game, and I wiped out my team, so I get it.

Rash, sure, but I've gotten away with far dumber things.

I heard Blizzard is pretty bad on this aspect.

Magic the Gathering and Dungeons and Dragons, too.
