foscor77 169 Posted September 23, 2019 Whats the mentality of someone calling you 'Trash' in world chat while being the mvp and rekting you repeatedly? i thought people get mad when they get rekt or lose but these days im seeing more and more of these 'pro' players getting mad after winning lol. So what exactly is happening? Not a rant or anything, just have a lot of time on my hands so thought of being curious ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's people looking for validation in their actions and since they don't get enough validation IRL, they seek it in games... Except APB is sweaty and nobody ever wants to admit if anyone's good, bad, right or wrong. Those people just start self-validating, since no one else would do it for them. Don't worry though, if they have to value themselves all the time, it means they simply don't have friends. You can have a pity laugh, but that won't stop them from being irritating. 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CookiePuss 5378 Posted September 23, 2019 Reminder that you can turn off any and all chat channels. You'd be surprised how much more enjoyable the game is with no chat at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bambola 379 Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) It's a common sight, a person who has been tormented and harassed in the real life, neglected or simply caves under peer pressure, comes online where anonymity provides reprisal protection, targets and bullies someone whom they perceive to be weaker or more vulnerable than them. It's sad because they just need a little love, yet they get none. Edited September 23, 2019 by Bambola Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BrandonBranderson 672 Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) Whenever someone calls me trash (very often because it's true) I just say the same phrase as a reply to everything they say to me afterwards. "I'm sorry for being inadequate, teach me master." Usually gets them a little worked up because it's not the response they were expecting and crosses a few of their wires.
