"You shouldn't rage because it hurts people's feelings and you don't know how they can handle it"

First let me preference by saying I'm not implying people that are extremely toxic shouldn't be punished.

Why do people use this argument? I see sooo many posts about people getting their feelings hurt because someone said something mean to them (like noob). Other people will then say something like, "It's an online video game, get over it." This is met with the typical response of, "some people have issues and they can't just 'get over it'."

Let's acknowledge that this is completely true. Some people actually do have skin so thin that they flip out over the phrase, "gg ez". I've seen it many of times on this boards. And that some of these people have mental issues that makes them act this way uncontrollably (like ppl with depression). Buuuut, on the same hand, couldn't it be said that people have raging issues that are uncontrollable as well? Why are we discriminating against mental issues that don't align with your view? I'm just saying using the "mental" argument is pretty dumb, because the same thing can be said with ragers. And I know people will say that ragers don't have a place in the game, but then you can simply say that mentally fragile people shouldn't be playing on the internet knowing how people act on it.

Tl;dr: If you're going to respond to a "get over it" comment by saying you have mental issues that prohibit you from doing so, then don't tell people that have mental issues causing them to flame to "just stop".
