If you think that, given the choice between spending a whole game staring at a man's butt or a woman's butt, a gay man would most likely choose a woman's butt, I don't think you understand what "gay" means.

I'm a man who plays as an italian who plays as a cat in games.

All my WoW toons are female.

The blame is yours, not the victims. They didn't ask to have you scream vitriol down a mic or post racist slurs. This isn't about making people 'toughen up' or 'play rough'. Its about making people stop being bullies, and if you can't understand that you are part of the problem. You have no right to ruin someone…

No it isn't. Empathy is hard-wired into us unless there's something wrong with you.

Being a jerk to people with your brother was hilarious only BEFORE pop culture came along and ruined it for you?

The funny part is, judging by the responses in this thread, it's obvious how many internet commenters also lack that empathy.

Bingo.

Should we just call it what it is for these types? Psychopathy.

Lose your cool? They win. Block them? They win. Respond to them in any way? They win.

There's two kinds of trolling in my experience: soft trolling and hard trolling. A soft troll would be someone who tells you to jump over a ledge in Halo, which leads to your untimely death, and chuckles for everyone. A hard troll is someone actually harassing other players online (ex. bringing the kid to tears in…

To me that isn't trolling, that's straight up harassment and should be treated as such. From my experience, trolling is harmless messing around. When it crosses the line of 'in good fun' to straight up evil, it isn't trolling.
