Stop hating on us potatoes :( (a psychoanalysis)

[Grand_Commander_LuXun]

I'm really bored, so......

I don't understand why you guys hate us bad players so much!!!!! You can check my stats, I have an orange WTR and I'm averaging 10k damage after 4000 battles. Yes, I am a bad players. So what????? I play so I can have fun!!!!!! It's just a game!!!!! I have work and school you know!!!!!! Not like you low-lifes that just mash buttons and blow up stuff in front of a screen all day. I just want to sail my ship around and see where it takes me, is that not alright with you guys???? Who cares if I go down the central channel on Two Brothers in a battleship???? Who cares if I snipe at the back of the map??? It's a game and we can all choose how to play it!!!!! I don't care about winning or losing, as long as I have fun suckas. I just want to drive my cool ships around and let off some steam at the end of a week. During the week I have med school. I have a job, I get drunk, I get high and I take girls to bed. Who the eff cares so much about DOING WELL in the game????? YOu losers get a life and stop hating on us "potatoes", as you like to call us. I don't have 24/7 to devote to this game so as long as i get enjoyment out of it I don't care about whether I'm getting big damage numbers on the screen, I don't care if I am sinking enough ships, I don't care!!!! i do what I WANT.

 

-A pretty good psychoanalysis of the red and orange players, IMO.

-My response to this: If WG ever decided to host an inter-server tournament for this game, let's feed these players to the opponents first. We'll give the other servers the impression that we suck, so they'll let down their guard. Then the greens, blues, and purples move in. I mean, come on. As long as the reds and oranges HAVE THEIR FUN, everyone's happy, eh?

 

 

I currently have a light blue WTR, average WR, and 34k average damage.

[pewpewpew42]

Well.

 

Consider me enlightened.

 

I too have a life to live (although with considerably less alcohol, etc.), but life(data)'s too short to not have fun.

 

Buy a Mikasa next time it's on sale. It should really be advertised as Stress-B-Gone...

[Grand_Commander_LuXun]

^^^ I also have a life outside of the game. We all do, but not all of us suck badly. LOL. I'm referring to those players who use "I have a life" as an excuse to continue sucking and sabotaging teams. AKA wallet warriors, weekend warriors, holiday taters etc.

[suleiman71]

The reason people hate on those who average 900WTR and less are because they simply don't pull their weight in games. Oftentimes they die early and only hurt their teams. I have a life outside of my virtual pixel ships, yet I almost always pull at or above my weight in nearly every match I play.  I have the most fun when I actually do something to help my team win. Doing well means more XP, credits, karma, and most of all, you enjoy those matches.

 

/my two cents

 

(edited to reflect new comment by OP)

[Fuyukaze]

We can't stop players from being bad but we can always hope that they're on the other team instead of ours if it counts for any. 

 

[Grand_Commander_LuXun]

The block of text is my 'psychoanalysis' of those players who consistently perform poorly. I personally have an average WR, 34k average damage, and a light blue WTR.

[awildseaking]

I don't hate potatoes, only wallet warriors. They're like squares and rectangles. When someone grinds a single line or skips ships to play at a tier that they don't understand, they're a disservice to everyone.

I am lucky to get 3-4 games in an evening. I have a life. What I don't like is bad players such as yourself pooping on my play time because you are not competitive. Or have a life. Or it's just a game. Or whatever poor excuse you are using.

 

There is coop. Play there. You doing what you want in randoms, team and ranked play is seriously detracting from my game play.

 

Play coop. That 'it's just a game' play style is one of the reasons coop exists.

 

This selfish attitude of 'I do what I want' has consequences. One is that folks will tell you how bad you suck. How you are affecting their game play because they want to compete.

 

That's why competitive competent players have such problems with players such as yourself. You feel you are entitled. You are not.

 

Co-op. I cannot remind players such as yourself enough about that game mode.

 

Now go have fun in co-op.

How fascinating. Apparently the potato is of the belief that good players don't have a life, a job, don't play to have fun, don't go out to the pub to get drunk, and are losers with no life who play 24/7.

 

...I guess I'm doing something wrong then. I best call up my boss to tell him that I quit, for a life of sailing pixel ships in the basement.

 

Dunno about you guys, but I think I'm seeing some flaws in this little rant.

[Grand_Commander_LuXun]

Pay attention. I'm not a potato. I am trying to get into the mindset of a potato.

I agree. What is truly sad is that the OP is actually a blue himself. +1

 

 

[Canadatron]

4000 battles under ones belt but yes, filthy casual.

 

I can usually understand if someone is new and stinks, it's to be expected. But no real improvement after thousands of battles makes me think those people are the same ones we put safety warnings on everything for.

 

Just how? It's just impossible for me to imagine I guess.

[zapporius]

ah you called me a low life? I am six-figure software developer, yet you hurt my feelings so. Bad person.

[Grand_Commander_LuXun]

I'm trying to get into the mindset of a potato. And describing it.

[Super_Dreadnought]

Pay attention. I'm not a potato. I am trying to get into the mindset of a potato.

 

If so then it appears it flew over my head. Sorry but I'm like a strange blueberry/eggplant hybrid, and sometimes one can lose sense of reality when fairies pay the electricity bill, unicorns bring money to buy premium ships, and one is not quite sure whether one is a fruit or a root vegetable.

"Low life"? Are you effing kidding me? I'm a disabled US Navy vet, child, all I CAN do is stare at the screen and mash buttons all day.

 

And I'm an orange player, too, and none of that describes me, it actually doesn't describe many of us. Your analysis is absurd.

I kinda care about how well I do in the game, that being said, have fun. Your on my team sometimes, and your Red team sometimes. It all works out in the end.

They are entitled to play however they want, you however are not entitled to stat shame them, its against the rules, if you dont like it , go play coop.

I don't see imweasel stat shaming in his post. He's criticizing the OP's argument, not his stats.

[Rhal_]

You hate the players that make it possible for you to play the game for free.  That seems illogical.

[Shnoze_Shmon]

I'm orange, like a sweet potato.  1500+ games but I cant get away from those streaks where I just seem to consistently die in the first five minutes for several games.  But then I got the Arizona in a $3 box a few days ago.  I'm in love.  Ive even had a green day.  I've even had some awesome comments after me and my AZ blast our way onto a cap leaving sinking hulls in our wake.  But her slow loading guns means I probably will have to stick to DDs to get the kraken.

Please, don't send folks like him to Co-Op. We have enough of our own problems with Random players who think they are God's gift to the WoWs world who come to Co-Op and snipe from spawn and do nothing to actually support the battle.

I loved it when some those guys came to Random.  I think I had just started the American DD line.  There I was torping and shelling them from 3k while I took their cap, and they were too busy sniping to bother with me.
