What the fuck happened? From 1998-2010 I played in or ran private servers where everyone had their shit straight. Now everywhere I go it's a complete shitshow.

Every literal kid, retard, autist, third worlder, and manchild has easy internet access and thus access to vidya.
Vidya as we knew it is all but dead. There are still good single player games but there isn't a single multiplayer game that hasn't descended into chaos.

Where do these pics come from?
Social networks bursting out, millenials getting older, you getting older and becomingmature, video games becoming ridiculous widely speaking.

Only rich, intelligent folk had access to the internet and graphics cards required to play those games. That also meant that the average user was older because more work was involved in getting these programs to run.
Now any 10 year old with a chromebook can not only play these games, but stream them too. The democratization of games has made their playerbases all cancer, so you have to find segmented groups with rules and teamspeak.

You sound like one massive faggot, OP. I'm sure people are as thrilled to have you in their games, as you are to have them.
