I'M borderline trolling? I'm not FEELING like i'm being picked on and insulted I definitely am. And it shouldn't be happening in the first place, I thought thats what moderators were for, to put a stop to THAT
XB, it was mentioned numerous times in the official thread and i am fairly certain sporadically through the subsequent ones, that the deathmatches would be moderated loosely as trash talking and insults are the nature of the game. as long as no one is using profanity, inappropriate images etc, then trash talking and banter is encouraged.
a lot of people didn't like the campaigning route from years past, where the threads were dead and people resorted to Private Messaging strangers en masse. this year i said i'd let it go a little more loosely to promote involvement in the games and to make it a little more fun for everyone. this has even ended up in cases where people pick sides, like political parties of a sort and "campaign" even if the posters in the matches are unaware (or aware :evil

if you feel you are being picked on, despite the fact that those who are doing it have stated they are clearly not, and just going on with the nature of the game, then my best suggestion would be to remove yourself from the discussion and they will move on to other posters.
however, i would like to say that i think if you relaxed a little, and took everything said with a grain of salt and even starting dishing it back a little, you may find yourself enjoying your time more and hopefully will get involved in the other matches. perhaps one day, we'll even find you participating
