Don't know if I said this on here or on another unrelated account, but I'm going to say it anyway:
Anti-elitism is incredibly elitist.
Anti-elitism is incredibly elitist.
Like I'll use two examples of what I mean. With tabletop roleplaying games, seeing someone enjoying engaging with the mechanics and optimising a character, then going: "Um actually it's about roleplaying that's all you should be focusing on or you're not playing right" is just as
bad as someone who completely neglects the roleplaying element to focus entirely on the mechanics.
Example 2: If you're someone who sees a post where someone asks something like "hey, so, I don't want to waste resources that I'd have to grind on a sub-optimal build. Can I get suggestions if I'm doing the right thing here" and your response is
"Actually sweaty there's no correct way to play a game ((((((((:" and keep spamming that shit then fuck you. You're not helping. You're a cunt.
For those wondering the thing that prompted me to make this thread was something on reddit. So yeah, I did kinda have it coming when I went to "getting a grenade thrown in your face central" and was all "boy, I sure hope someone doesn't throw a grenade in my face."
