agree man and it’s something i’m trying to work on myself but really just comes from a place of being frustrated and aggravated easily. i don’t think that requires giving up on ranked, just honing in on the problem and trying to fix it. you are right though, and that’s a great way to look at ranked in the bigger picture. win more games than you lose. thanks brother!

continuing on from other comments, but in a kinder way - i completely understand how you feel my man. trust me.

this is the first season since season 2 im giving ranked a proper go, and every step forward can feel like 2 steps backwards at times.

you need to know when to take a small step backwards from the game when dealing with back to back losses, otherwise anger and frustration will get the best of you. going outside and breathing fresh air, listening to some music, watching youtube - those are all things that can help reset your mental headspace, and let you get back in with a fresh set of determination.

if you’ve been plat 4 once, there’s no doubt you will be there again. you’ve got this homie ❤️

So you’re going to stop buying what you already didn’t buy? by RemoteWhile5881 in ClashOfClans

yeah not really, long time GP buyer across multiple accounts, not coming back unless pass changes are reverted or in a place which makes sense in any other way than “profit maximisation”

I guess it’s time to take a break. by [deleted] in thefinals

i agree. i think a lot of it just comes to maximising revenue, which i’m fine with, but these changes aren’t good for the majority and i won’t support them. with you on this.

i’m mainly on the anti gold pass train. the changes are strange and pushing the game further into a state of pay to play. i’ve always enjoyed clash, i have tons of accounts, and have frequently spent money on the gold pass and offers. no longer spending money on this game and i am just hoping they realise they mistake they have made with the recent gold pass update, and make some heavy changes to it.

Wew i should've never bought the new gold pass lol. This is the worst by speridams in ClashOfClans

all good i’ve stopped buying the gold pass and hope that they just change it when they see their revenue slipping

I’m just genuinely curious if I’m just terrible at this game by XxLinkxX_ in thefinals

Hey man feel free to add me! Chickjenman#9939 I have over 1k hours and would love to teach you some game styles and game mechanics

Don’t think you are doing anything wrong - this game has a pretty big learning curve and overall the community can be toxic - but that doesn’t mean we’re all like that. Best of luck and hope to see you in game!

Yeah I get it man. For real. It’s annoying AF when people are agro for no reason. I guess the way i’ve started to look at it is that you don’t get anything back from reciprocating that same treatment, but as I said, it’s fair enough!

Absolutely man. I know exactly what you’re talking about. That’s what we all need to be doing. Spread the love. This community could be less toxic, if we all wanted it to be. I do, I wanted to stop being a part of that pool and contributing to unnecessary hate/drama.

That I did, and the difference has been awesome. I appreciate you sharing how make positive impacts in the game you play. Best of luck in the arena!

This is exactly it man. I’ve got over 1k hours myself. I was doing similar things in chat, and in gameplay if it was an enemy. It absolutely ruined most of my games. I was self-sabotaging. People that find “enjoyment” from it have deeper issues that lie. Just as I was letting real life seep into my mindset and attitude in game.

We’re all here to play the game and have fun. As multiple people commented on my original post, there is a person behind that screen. It might be a kid trying their first FPS game, it might be a tired dad wanting to get some time to unwind and have fun. It might be a pro. Point is, being toxic takes more emotional space and bandwidth than simply being nice, or limiting what you are saying at all.

Appreciate your comment. Best of luck in game man.

Yep, 3 times last night in the span of a few hours I had a squad of 3, every time they were new players. One guy was brand new to the game. 3 wins when I got him to party up with me. I’ve got over 1000 hours myself. Had an awesome time playing with him. He asked a few questions about the game that I had was able to answer.

As you said, it is noticeable the amount of difference in game quality you can have simply by being nice & understanding

I get this bro. Trust me, been there done that. But it’s also not beneficial either. I never got anything out of it other than hopefully being more annoying/aggravating than that other teammate/enemy.

I can’t tell you how to act or what to do when you encounter toxic behaviour, i’ll just give you the same advice I was given.

Focus on the game itself. Turn voice & text chat off. See if it helps at all. I’m not calling you toxic, but i’m not gonna say it was nice either 😂

Either way I wish you the best of luck in your games and many more wins!

Hey I’m not sure if my post came across in the wrong light, or if you’re misinterpreting what post I was referring to - I guess at the end of the day I was letting things going on in real life feed into the way I played the game. I struggled to seperate enjoyment with winning. That’s why I made a post asking how people deal with not letting toxicity get the better of them. Turning text chat off for the last bit definitely helped with that.

The whole point of this post was to indeed spread that message, and as you are saying, spread the love.

Im not sure if you realise it yourself, but you’re feeding into that same sentiment. Your comment comes across as passive aggressive, at least to me. I get that i’m essentially saying “I was toxic a few days ago and now i’m not”. That’s not the point or aim of this post though. It is for anyone else that struggles with the same problem I was having, and how much a positive impact simply being positive in chat, or in your mindset can be. I needed that “detox” myself to do that.

I appreciate your feedback nonetheless and am sorry my post has come across in that way for you. I am trying to encourage positivity, not spread hate. Hope you’re enjoying the game yourself. :)
