11 Types Of Players Everyone HATES In Multiplayer Video Games
11. The Reptile
This first entry should be further to number one on the list. But because it has more to do with deliberately awful conduct, it should be addressed first and foremost.
The Reptile is a problem the gaming community has been fighting to clear up for some time. They sense a player online is a woman, and uncomfortably and shamelessly "flirt" with them despite receiving zero reciprocation. If they lose a game, their first instinct is to hurl insults at the winner.
Playing video games with opponents on the other side of the world is supposed to bring people together through shared interests - but these people see it as nothing more than a vague excuse to explore varying levels of misogyny and hate-speech. Every slur and derogatory remark has been uttered out their lips at some point - probably, quite recently.
To them, gaming is a sacred society and it's being invaded. Anyone who isn't in their narrow periphery is an offensive invasion of that society. They give gaming more than a bad name; they're the loudest voice, and sadly the world is under the belief that they speak for the community.
Hate is a strong word, but this entry couldn't be more true.
