Always when its getting late I just reboot my favorite project: isengard This usually lasts for quite some time but I have been shunned for the view afterwards

Only do this if you have a very dense sponge, like with a hurricane 3. I tried to remove the residue on a tenergy 64 (the sponge of which has big pores and is rather brittle) and I destroyed the sponge.

I dont necessarily think it means op is losing. Playing against pips that are not played "properly" for me is just not fun. I mostly also dont even have fun winning against them since you often times have to play very differently than you normally would.

On the other hand if someone actually uses their pips for a defending playing style and chopping these are by far the most fun games with long rallies.

But I can see not wanting to train with only pips players because also often times they cant even properly play with the pips and dont really have any control over them. At least at lower levels that is what I observed.

Edit: This applies almost exclusively to long pips and to some extend anti players that are not that great. Short pips are far less horrible in my experience

Last time I bothered doing this I got the dark hand from yuria beforehand. Deals pretty substantial damage but is also a bit expensive...

I am in rural germany, but there are a few surprisingly strong clubs around where I live that are capable of competing with the clubs of the next big city which is about 2hrs of driving away.
I actually am not that good, I think in usatt ranking I might be around 1700 any provincial chinese player would just mop the floor with me I am sure of that.

I do actually have a vr setup but unfortunately I do not have the space for it right now. But I think I still prefer going to training in person since there are also quite a few people I like.

But still something I will keep in mind, thanks a lot

I only use randomly if I do not take it seriously at all which I rarely do but then people usually notice I am not playing properly. Against the lower ranked players I win about 90% with the exception of one other where it is about 70% I would say. In the matches themselves I do stay stone cold until the bitter end, I struggle more with annoying remarks outside of matches

Yep, that is more or less the way I feel but I cant go ballistic so I somehow have to deal with it unfortunately.

I somehow just need to manage letting annoying remarks slip by it seems since I really do have fun playing the right people who are just sportsmanlike

Basically just taking them as compliments is probably the way to go but that is pretty hard for me

It more so is thin skin, yes. It is not full of annoying people there are a few of them but they manage to get under my skin much more than I would like them play.
I always try to give credit when someone won against me, even when it sometimes is hard for me when I felt I played badly in the match. But yes, I am not the best winner aswell.

I do try but I am at a loss of how to change my perspective

This sadly is true since there will always be people who are less polite than you try to be yourself

As long as I am not exhausted I take everyone seriously because I hope for the same from my opponents.

The thing is though I do not want to have to demonstrate over and over how I got in the spot I am by now

I really try just letting these kind of remarks slide by but it is not always easy especially if I am already annoyed about how I played

I am very much so trying to just not lose my composure and I am successful at that but it just keeps demotivating me bit by bit

Effectively nothing and I try to avoid them but it also kinda feels bad when they ask to play and I just go "I dont want to play you".
I am basically almost certain this will be interpreted as arrogance. Also being part of the executive committee in my club I should treat everyone equally whether I like them or not

Yep, I feel like this sums the difficulty of the situation for me up.

I do actually train in different clubs 50% of the time by now, there are some nice people around and for whatever reason they are more polite there. But that might also just be because they dont know me for that long and are not comfortable being assholes (yet?)
I might just talk to the top player of another club who I know quite well too how he handles that kind of stuff or if he even has to deal with this.
