9 Ways Video Games Humiliated You For Being Bad At Them
4. GTA Online Labels You A "Bad Sport" And Gives You A Dunce Hat
At one point or another, anyone who's played GTA Online has been a little bit naughty. The game just makes it so easy to take the utter p*ss out of other players and your friends alike, giving you a ridiculous arsenal of weapons and flying cars to dick over other people with.
However, there is a key difference between successful griefing and being a major dick who's bad at the game. For instance, it's not funny to quit a job early because it's not going your way, as it punishes the other people in your party who would have stuck it out to the very end. Likewise, blowing up other people's cars benefits nobody; the perpetrator has to pay for a replacement, and the victim has to wait around for it to be delivered.
Thankfully, Rockstar did implement a system that punishes players who don't play properly, labelling them "bad sports" and hitting them with a bunch of limitations.
However, to rub it in and humiliate them in front of their fellow players, the devs also force these bad sports to wear a dunce hat for a certain amount of time, letting everyone know that they're not to be trusted.
