    Self centered is another term for it, very prevalent in society today.

    yeh .. because modern society is rich enough so that we can afford to be self-centered (as opposed to ancient times when humans need to ban together to survive).

    isn't it liberating that I do really have to care about anyone else when I play video games. If i am in a good mood, i may even help someone. But the important point is that I do not have to. I can choose to treat other players as NPCs. 
    You can help other players because you want to.  Nothing like the days when your trade window popped up and a stranger gave you a really nice weapon or gear, out of the blue, asking nothing in return, they just saw you needed it.  :smile:
    I still experience this.
    I fucking hate that shit.

    1. I dont want my game experience completely trumped by basically giving me OP 
    2. I dont like being randomly interupted by my screen going up with a fucking trade from someone I dont know. great now I have to either get in conversation with this asshole or I have to worry about him thinking me an asshole if I dont.
    This is a TEST right?

    no I do not like it when people do that.

    I play game because I wan to experience the challenge as the game is intented. 1. giving me an OP item kills that. 2. I am in the middle of doing something, namely focused on how the game works then BAM uninvinted someone basically gives me god mode. 3. now I have to talk to you...great...I dont want to but now if I dont you will go around telling people I am an asshole. How do i explain to you that I dont want your OP sword exactly?

    idiotic statements like that are also why I hate random ass hats.

    what do you think the very first they will think when I hit decline and dont respond? well I will tell you...they will call me an asshole or a bot. you know how I know? because they have.

    Or I can just vote-kick or rage-quit whenever i like. It is as much fun. The point is .. we have freedom to do anything we want in a game. If i am not in the mood, i don't help anyone.

    Every little thing to you is a huge inconvenience, isn't it?

    I decline trades all the time and no one has ever called me names. I have accepted trades and either responded with 'thx' or nothing and have never been called names, except for one time.

    If players are calling you names in-game, it sounds like a different problem. Maybe it's the type of games you play. Maybe it's you.

    Also, most modern games have an 'auto-decline trades' option. You may want to consider providing feedback to those "amazing" early-access game developers you constantly support and request they add that option, if it's not already there.

    All simple problems have simple answers, except to you apparently.

    Right, because in your world if it happens to you, it happens to everyone. In your world, you don't trust people therefore everyone is untrustworthy.

    because I dont believe in special snowflakes. I think we might have talked about this.
    yes its true, I dont think I am so unique and special that there are somethings that only happen to me and nobody else in the universe. 

    crazy I know

    No aside from our debate over being called an Asshole game or not explain to me exactly what is awesome about spamming people with gifts so that they decline?

    Dude, you are the very definition of a special snowflake.

    But aside from that fact, what the hell are you doing that causes you to get "spammed with gifts"? You are playing smaller indie games (your own admission). I play larger AAA games and never get excessive trade requests.

    You have to be exaggerating.

    you consistently suggest that I am the only person in the universe who has certain experiences.
    I have consistently suggested that is not possible.

    why? it is not like there are consequences to behavior (aside from being kicked) in a game.

    Doesn't matter. Our little anti-social friend is the one claiming he gets abuse beause he turns down trades. 

    My guess is that it's the WAY he turns down trades that causes people respond in the manner they do.

    I think I am a balance between extrovert and introvert. My daily work consist of asking personal questions to strangers all day and getting intimate details of their lives (pediatrician). This is to the point where when I go home, I don't need or want to interact with people. But I know if I don't work for awhile, I'll get bored and want to leave the house to interact with people or friends. 

    When I play games, I'm not very social at first, but I have to warm up and then I'm a chatterbox.
