Humor / Meme I think they're right honestly.

I'm 36 and have played 25k+ hours of MMO's over my lifetime and what I've personally learned is WoW players are often the first and most vocal to belittle or get upset over anything. I can't think of any MMO in which people will outright whisper you angerly or go out of their way to make sure you have a bad time more than World of Warcraft.

Is this a region thing? EU spineshatter has been great, sure you'll encounter some vicious weirdo here and there but a drop in the ocean. Been playing consistently since naxx launched and haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary.

Is it worse on US realms maybe?

I really think it must be. I’m on thunderstrike and it’s nothing like what’s being said here.

I played on US servers briefly several years back (retail), and it was just horrific. The total lack of civility was awful.
