    I prefer modern toxic over 2008-era XBL lobbies though.

    Maybe that’s just me. But I get a lot less annoyed by a “GG ez” than I do by an 8-year-old shouting seven consecutive minutes of racial slurs into his mic at the top of his lungs.

      I get a lot less annoyed at the opposite, I sorta like hearing all that, its really funny to see, as its both super stupid, and also a telltale sign that theyre actually mad. I usually have a good laugh at/with the guys who do it.

      “gg ez” only means they are either trolling, or just plain thought it was a nice easy game. no fun laughs or anything, just boring “oh I’m so good zomg” stuff. I get annoyed not due to the “they thought it was easy” but just because its such low effort that you couldn’t spend more than half a second typing a message to talk to the other team. put some more effort into communication for crying out loud. its not hard, you literally just have to talk.
