I don't really agree with the OP's arguments, but it is interesting how quickly and easily he triggered the nasty in-group/out-group behavior he was talking about.Just to clarify, a 38 year old man (according to his profile) is crying about a harmless nickname over what is a non obligatory hobby, to him?
Yeah, "necro" seems harmless when you're in the group saying it. When you're in the group it's directed at, you see it for what it is: a mean-spirited way to denigrate someone who spends their time on something you no longer think is worth spending time on. Is it worth getting this upset about? No... but that doesn't totally erase the point, does it?
I lecture no one. Play what you like and have fun. But your words do matter--especially if you're in the group others look up to and you help dictate the FGC culture. Trash talking is fun for the talker, not so much fun for the trashed.
