It isn't spiteful on a personal level.
It's part of the intended, supported ethos of New Eden, in which DUST 514 is set, alongside EVE Online. CCP themselves wrote a song about it (check the video out on YouTube). It's how their universe works, and when you're here, you're a part of that environment.
Yes, there are valid reasons for you to take offense to impolite behaviour, but within the setting of an official forum for a game which promotes "HTFU" as one of the core values instilled into their playerbase, there isn't a valid reason to call it immature and impolite.
The "problem" this thread is describing is something which everyone deals with equally, and for which there are in-built counters already in the game. It's also a problem which has been acknowledged by CCP, has been worked on and improved, and is continuing to be improved. If you aren't using the tools provided, that isn't the game's fault. If you're using the proper tools, but the enemy are still spawn camping your team, then you got outplayed. Either they found your Uplink and are camping that too, or they destroyed it to camp the other spawn locations (fixed or random) Pulled the words right out of my head. +1 |

So... it's not a problem, but CCP has acknowledged it's a problem and has constantly been improving the problem... that isn't a problem. You seem to be playing both sides of the fence here. Either it is a problem, criticism is valid, but it's getting better... or it isn't a problem, and they need to HTFU. But the two are pretty mutually exclusive. Otherwise it's pretty silly to tell someone to HTFU for pointing out an acknowledged issue. I don't like HTFU on the principle that it's a spiteful thing to say - the assumption is that the target of the comment is soft and "unworthy". I don't think anyone needs to "HTFU", but rather the people who feel the need to use such hasty and degrading terms need to "GTFU". G = Grow You can argue that it's not all you like, the bottom line is that people are going to be offended by saying such a thing, and if you don't know that or can't understand why, well I'm afraid ignorance is no defence for ignorance or general dickiness. I think we should all settle down and stay on topic :D this isn't constructive at all |

The spawn system needs some work but you are making it worse with your gameplay.
Stop dieing. You will need to spawn much less.
Look around and move constantly especially when you spawn in. The number of people I shoot in the side/back of the head because of their poor mobility and tactical sense is comedic.
Stop filling the forums with crying. There are only some many bits on the internets and you have used yours up. Of course, so easy to say when your corp gets a **** load of ISK from you EVE acct before it could be stopped, giving you the option and ability to purchse those skillbooks that cost 1M isk + while the rest of us go through match by match earning ours. Personally you shouldn't open your mouth or type about others not dieing or needing to spawn less with the ISK you got. That alone is truly comedic as you so eloquently state! The point is there are too many panties in a twist right now and V is right in the fact that in many ambush matches most of us are spawned right in front of others and barely get the chance to move anywhere. The bully **** that's flying around is pathetic. We were once all rookies at some point and we all needed guidence as well. V- I understand your situation and would like to invite you to join my corp 30D (3dge of D4rkness). We will work with you and support you in anyway that we can. Mics are required and your situation will be taken into consideration. I hope you think about it and look to us as your friends hun. Spoken like a true warrior. Those who insult thy enemy are only looked to as mindless savages. We need more people like you on this planet :P |

Tell me. How does one counter a post if they DO NOT READ IT? Or have you not a clue what TLDR means? |
