Enforces a hypocritical, oppressive clique based atmosphere in which the user agreement rules are enforced strictly based on his own whims and personal bias of each member. Allows constant flame wars and off topic thread derailment.
Banning and rule enforcement only to those personally disliked.
Shameless lack of professionalism and hypocrisy bolstered by blatant, situational lying.
Obnoxiously enforces rule breaking done by popular members, selectively choosing who has the right to defend themselves or criticize.
Cares more about enforcing status quo and garnering the respect of the high post counters than enforcing rules and doing his job.

Inzaghi told one member he doesn't censor members. Then told him to stop posting in a thread due to the member's criticism of the moderation (or lack there of) Other members continued to berate and flame with no consequence while contradicting themselves by telling those offended to "ignore" (Something they themselves refuse to do)

Video game elitists are impotent, socially retarded fucksticks who honestly believe, with sincerity, that being able to push buttons and make simulated shit happen with any skill, is impressive to anyone over the age of eight and with an I.Q. higher than "drug testing chimp...'s post-flung shit".
In general, elitists of any kind, just standing around, are pathetic. It really should be legal, that if you saw an elitist, out assholing around town (or whatever they do) you could just wallop the bastard out of them for a good free minute, before being arrested and hauled off to court, where, you would receive a slap on the wrist. And by "slap on the wrist", I mean dinner for two at your choice of local, mid-range sit-down eateries.
In fact, the judge should award you a handful of Mrs. Fields cookies and hardy thank you for a job well done.
"You're doing God's work, Elitist basher!!!"
A -video game- elitist is so shitty, that they should, pretty much, be beaten all day long.
They should roll out of bed...directly into someone's fist and, the beating should last from that moment, to about the time they're knocked unconscious at night (after a long, hard day of "owning nubs", "pwning scrubs" and defecating into an official, limited edition, Unreal Tournament 3 Leet Helper "shitting bucket".

Get the Video Game Elitist mug.by Lig Na Baste June 14, 2008
Get the Be excellent to each other mug.(This commentary is written from the view of someone who technically qualifies as a Hardcore Gamer but, absolutely hates the majority of his peers. If you happen to be an HC gamer, that still manages to NOT look down on all those who don't conform to your style or that you are NOT somehow owed something from your hobby, than this does not apply to you. Not all HCG's are like this. The below is however, how the vocal majority wish to be seen. This is for them, and the bad name they give us all.)
Hardcore Gamer:
A very vocal, arrogant minority of gamers that assume that the gaming industry revolves (or should revolve) around them.
Consider their own skills, and preferences and, those of their peers, to be the only acceptable use of a recreational medium.
Often use the term "True Gamer". An arrogant, idiotic term invented by insecure people to justify their own gaming style.
The irony is, the gaming industry was born from the notion, that these are games, pinball dating back as far as the 40's was designed for people to relax and enjoy.
Pong brought it home, followed by other game systems that were designed for fun and recreation.
However, like all hobbies, there will always be those "stop having fun guys" that ruin it for everyone else.
People who feel that the industry belongs to them.
People who fail to realize that there will always be a place for them but really just want it all. If casual players get their way the whole industry will collapse and the world will end.
People who adopted the medium as their own and decided that they were the only ones worthy.
Refuse to accept that, like board games, video games are made to be enjoyed. They aren't made for you to feel good about yourself. there are hardcore boardgamers out there too and, they also miss the point.
Hardcore gamers are no less ridiculous than a "pin the tail on the donkey" elitist, who shows up to a birthday party with their own pins and blindfold, won't shut up about you're "spinning all wrong" then looks shocked, as to why the rest of the guests find them socially repulsive.
Hardcore gamers are generally cliquish, rude, snide and belligerent.
When they aren't attacking casuals, they're attacking each other for the dumbest shit.
"Yeah you beat that boss but, I did it without using half my abilities, blindfolded, with no healing items, on hardcore extreme killer blood-hell mode!"
Don't sell yourself short kid, you also did it with your head up your ass.
This comes from a culture where sarcasm is way more important than ideas.
To be hardcore, a game pretty much needs to be "difficult".
That's all hardcore games really are. Tedious and long, and dragged out and hard.
Because the life of a hardcore gamer generally isn't very taxing, they can turn to games to "challenge" them.
Often times they'll wax on about how casual gamers are gradually killing the market, while ignoring the fact that the market has always had room for both players and, that some people have a life to kick their ass. That, when they sit down to play a video game, it's not so damn important that a player needs to turn it into some perfectionist job you don't get payed for.
That maybe, a person who doesn't piss 90% of their paycheck on games also deserves to enjoy a game.
Me? I qualify as a hardcore gamer, but I hate the term. I'm ashamed of HC gamers and how awful they make gamers look. How ignorant they are. How arrogant and myopic. How they taunt and belittle people simply for failing to take a fucking game too seriously.
Hardcore gamers want the entire medium of electronic games for themselves. They don't care about anyone else. They're selfish, ignorant tools who want to stay in the basement, never getting laid.
There is a big difference, between wanting a challenge and, demanding everyone should. See past your own god damn skills for once in your lives. Learn to accept that not everyone can sit in front of a monitor for hours mastering a game.
If you need to insult a person's gaming preference, you're the one that needs to stop playing.

Hardcore gamers want games to be hard for the sake of compensating for an empty, easy life. They have nothing else to be proud of so they look to gaming for some shred of pride.
If only they displayed that pride with some manner of grace and civility.

Asshole Farm.
Current holders of the
"Largest douchebags in a land of douchebags award for excellence in the field of douchebaggery."
Claim to "fame":
1,000 years ago, "raided" an in-game memorial for a real player who had died of a stroke and then made a lame, grainy video to brag about it and generally made asses of themselves on public boards.
Hid behind PvP to justify something done admittedly for cruelty sake.
Have since gone on to do absolutely nothing of interest or significance.
Today: A sad PvP guild of snarky losers with a message board made up of poorly spelled and primarily locked topics. None of which, are flattering to it's members in the least.

While you were all off fighting fifty foot demi-gods who wipe out entire parties in one swing, Serenity Now was laying waste to a small group of players fondly remembering a friend who will no longer be part of their lives
-who barely fought back.
What's next for these titans of war?
Eliminating the ever-looming sheep threat of Elwynn Forest.....(get it? "looming"?)

Good Customer Service from nexon.
A funny Family Circus cartoon.
Bisexual, Vampire Teen Wizards.
What do these things have in common?
None of them are real. They're all imaginary.
I will explain Nexon's approach to customer service in one sentence and then some more sentences after:
"We have your money, fuck you, we have your money."
Example:
You forgot your password.
You click the link "recover PW" under log in.
You are NOT sent your password. You have your real password reset. You are then sent a temporary password to log in with.
Your only option to check your account info is a reset password option. There is no info on your account for you to review. NOTHING.
When you attempt to change your password to a new one, you'll find that your temporary PW doesn't count toward changing it.
Thus, they've completely blocked you from ever logging back in on that account, as even if you remember your old PW somehow, it's now been reset to a random string of letters and numbers.
So basically, you need to remember your PW to recover your forgotten PW.
To use their customer service to open a ticket, you'll need to log in.
The ticket must consist of your two security questions, the second of which, ISN'T TOLD TO YOU.
Not only that but Nexon has been known to change your security questions without notice!
So if you forgot that question, you can open a separate ticket to recover THAT!
Oh yeah, you can only have one ticket open at a time. It may also takes literally months to get a response.
If you somehow miss the notice of this fact, ALL of your tickets will be deleted.
If your email changes.
...You're fucked. Because they ONLY send your info to your original email. If it was closed for any reason. You're fucked.
Why bother helping you when they can just wait for you to make a new account and spend more money starting over?
If you are a friend of a GM you WILL be allowed to cheat and hack the game without punishment. This has been proven countless times.
One player actually sent a report about themselves hacking and was given a canned response thanking the player for the report. Proving Nexon isn't paying attention, nor do they give a rat's ass.
Nexon is now infamous for having THE worst customer service of all time. Maple Story is the third highest grossing MMORPG (making 100-500 million dollars annually) in the world and despite this, their security, forum/website, staff and policies are not only unprofessional, they are underhanded, deceitful, spiteful and shamelessly evil.

Get the Nexon Customer Service mug.An overpriced, collectible miniatures game concept produced by Wizkids Games. Examples: Hero Clix and Horror Clix.
Characterized by:
The use of piss poor injection molded plastic figures the same quality one finds in supermarket vending machines.
Convoluted rules that require weekly revisions and erratas.
Sets consisting of 3-5 interesting characters, the three lame headliners for each series and a Hefty cinch-sack full of filler no one could possibly want.
Play mats that may, or may not, have silver dollar Mickey Mouse pancake prices printed on the back.
Idiotic, attention grasping sales gimmicks, like having customers wait in line just for the opportunity -to win a raffle -to buy a product at a convention. FUN!
(That's right, you get the fun of waiting in line for the chance to win the chance to buy a product later at the con! AND the fun of waiting for your number to be drawn! FUN!)
Famous for producing no less then 40 Spiderman versions. One of which, may actually be playable. Took at least four versions before the "Super Senses" ability was even used.
Producing limited edition "prizes" the majority of which, are virtually unusable.
Milking idiotic, money-to-burn neckbeards for money most folks drop on samll automobiles.
Community consists mostly of snarky, virginal jerks who spend the day kissing Wizkids' collective ass for ripping them off and wallowing in fact that they will never touch a vagina. (see also: HCRealms)

The latest pile of overpriced, plastic clix crap is the Scarab from the video game series Halo. At $250, you can buy Halo 3 limited edition with the giant helmet thing. Except this is just a big plastic toy. That doesn't do anything. Except remind of you where that 250 dollars went...
