Anything less than "tryhard" is negative attitude at best.

Why do people say "tryhard" in chat? Everyone is trying hard unless they have a negative attitude and give up. Even trolls try hard. They just put maximum effort into losing instead of winning. Calling someone a tryhard is akin to saying "I'm not trying to win" which is a reportable offense.

I can understand trying something new or different in normals, but you should still be trying to win in all phases of the game, even when you are down by 10k gold. Until the surrender vote passes you should be doing everything in your power to win.

Its actually nothing but a parthetic attempt to distract from the fact that they DID try, but failed.

Good luck explaining that to a generation who was raised to try instead of do, fail instead of succeed and be a lazy POS as opposed to giving an effort. Most don't understand what winning is. Most don't understand that games are simple for the most part. Most can't succeed at something as simple as a game. Makes you wonder how huge of a failure their real lives are and how willing they are to lie about it over the internet. Human nature says a winner succeeds and a loser don't. At anything they do. Too many can't buy a clue and then game with an apathetic attitude and the need to use the terms, tryhard or I play to have fun and ruin the experience for others who don't have their shitty mindset. They are the problem and a huge reason for so much toxicity but todays society is so pathetic they keep on enabling them.

I wish I had 3 thumbs, so I could give this more thumbs up. An entire generation brought up to believe that it doesn't matter if you actually win or accomplish anything, as long as you TRY. When in reality if you TRY to do 10 different things and fail at every one, you are still going to starve and be homeless. Insanity.

There must be a lot of quitters and negative people who don't contribute to their team's victory with the amount of downvotes coming out.

The persons that call you tryhard when they lose are also the persons that laugh at you for being bad when they win.

Should someone really think that its desirable to not try or play worse on purpose, then technically he is a troll.

It doesn't really matter how you look at it. People that call you "tryhard" should be reported, because they are either trolls or just salty/toxic players.

KInda funny that you get downvoted, gives you a good idea of the type of players that are roaming on the boards.
