And this is why i love this game, because no matter how many A-holes there are there is also a big population of good high quality players to counter the balance. Take the defenition of "good high quality" as you will.
The problem is that the A-holes are more often louder than anyone, thus hiding the nice players in a dark corner. So far i've had some runs with the bad apples my self but i am adult and patient enough to not have enemies, which is always a nice thing when it comes to MMO's
Everybody has their own way of dealing with annoyance, some become defensive, other aggresive, in which both of those one of the opposing parties will end up with a grudge. Im not saying everyone should do what Trippy did, thats a ridiculous request, however i do suggest that entering a conflict with an open mind, and ultimately a neutral compromise (not aggresive nor defensive in cases like Trippy's), will most often than none, have a positive outcome.
Well done Trippyman.
