Are you an aggressive online gamer?

[Knight Barida]

Playing games online can be energy draining when you join some community where there is less judgement and players who have zero welcoming attitudes. When you join a toxic gaming community, do you match their aggressive attitudes, or do you leave?

There have been a few times I have met with a toxic group of gamers who have been on my team in a video game but I wouldn't say it changes who I am when playing the game, if anything, I am often appalled at some of the things many of them say but it's something to expect in some games online. 

I wouldn't day that I leave, I stick it out and then leave to not be placed with the same people again.

Toxic environments really drain the fun. I usually choose to leave rather than match aggression. Life’s too short for negativity!

Not at all. I'm not sure why but even in Toxic environments, I'm not all that bothered. I just start trolling a lot more to piss off a lot of the players.

 I am fine with leaving and joining a better community. Trying to address those issues will only makes things worst, that is why they must be avoided. Gaming should be fun, not stressful.

An eye for an eye does not solve the problem at all. I will either avoid or block the negative players. I allow only the good vibes because life is short and negativity doesn’t suit anyone online.

If a community is toxic, I won’t be rude, but I will quit. There is no need to be drawn into an argument. Entertainment and fatigue are opposite each other, and gaming must not leave you exhausted emotionally.

I agree. Gaming should be fun and not stressful.

You are right, mate. Gaming shouldn't be toxic or involving a whole of fights. To me, it doesn't make any bit of sense at all.

Same here. Games are meant to be fun and a way to connect with others positively.

In toxic gaming communities, I tend to disengage rather than match aggression. I'd rather seek positive spaces where kindness prevails.
