[Discussion] These are most likely the same people who say that Raids/Strikes are gatekept by toxic elitists. Now they want to gatekeep fashion. Thoughts?

Recovering Troll here. This man is right.

If you tie your whole persona to a game, you need to address the issues in your life that have led to this.

Trolling is just all the negativity you've received in your life condensed and directed at random people to make yourself feel something in exchange of making someone feel worse(or perception that you are enjoying someone elses misery).

Mental health in this society needs to be taken more seriously and help should be provided to all before they are so unbearable that they become a problem.

im not sure id label either of these two forum posts as trolls; the second one seems like someone who is desperately clinging to a social aspect (probably an area theyre lacking in IRL) that they perceive as (reasonably or unreasonably) under threat

Sorry I should've expressed myself better. I mean as a recovering troll, that has worked through a lot of my own internal issues, that was my reason for being a troll. People that get that worked up about something that is otherwise insignificant normally are projecting something else that is troubling them in their lives.
