Now, I'll agree with you on one thing. Hexx was way out of line with the "I have a degree...blah blah" spiel. It was uncalled-for, and insinuates that you might not have the education that he might, etc. etc.
The point here is that you don't know what kind of a life this guy has outside of game, anymore than I have any idea of what kind of life he or you or jamal or anyone has. Honestly? I couldn't give a shit less.
Saying "hey man, fuck you, I don't have adequate gear for my job because I have a Real Life, how about you fucking go and get one yourself, you need to get laid" is wrong, pure and simple. Saying "I don't do certain endgame events because of my life responsibilities", which is in effect what Hexx was saying, is legit in my book. Yes, he took it a step too far with the degrees-and-whatnot post.
