I genuinely think

There is a huge cognitive disconnect between those who stayed on tengaged and orgs and such during their mid-teens and later, and those who fell off of it or are just finding this sort of thing later on. The people who have been constant for the most part, obviously there are outliers, seem to be kind of void of critical thinking about their actions. While yes this is a website and “everything online is fake”, there are actual people behind the character and sometimes the behavior I see is astonishing. If half of the things that happened on here were done in public or outside of the context of the website there would be major repercussions. Things like death threats and threatening people with basically blackmail is considered harassment. You can genuinely get restraining orders and possibly sue people for the type and level of emotional damage caused, never mind the fact that physical threats are made. There are some of you who clearly do not regularly interact with the actual outside world and to be honest it’s scary. There’s a point I’m trying to make here but at this point I’m just rambling so I’ll stop

This has hit the nail directly on the head, my friend

This articulates what I have been saying to some recently. There is a big difference is reacting to an unfavorable result in a game by being rightfully upset, VS attacking people's intelligence, personal life, body, etc for the sole purpose of making them feel bad. I can't take anything said to me on this website seriously, but as you pointed out I didn't grow up on these sites I found them much later in life when I was already much more established in my life. Had I found this community when I was younger still figuring out who I was, some of these types of comments would have been very impactful to me.
