This term is so fucking stupid. If you play like shit expect to be told you are playing like shit.

If you act like an ass, be prepared to be punished for being an ass.

"Stating facts" is the fucking stupid term.

Try "stating facts" about clients to their face, see if you get any business. Try "stating facts" about your classmates, see how they treat you. "State facts" about your coworkers, and act all surprised when you're sent to HR or similar. "State facts" about your teammates in physical sports and see how long you get to stay on the team.

Fact is, the shit you say to your teammates when they fuck up is stuff that you're only saying because you're on the other side of a computer screen. You're saying shit, behind the shield of anonymity, with the explicit purpose of upsetting your fellow players. That's textbook toxicity.

That attitude is really stupid. You know how people react to being told they are playing like shit, and you know that it usually results in more arguing and more worse plays.

You should find a better way to make them listen, especially if you know what they need to do to play better.

Taking anger out on them won't help anything, and while you will get the catharsis of telling them off, it will make you a lot more likely to lose the match.

If you want to know my tips and tricks for manipulating bad teammates I'm more than willing to share, but I'm not going to waste time typing about them if you aren't interested in learning them.

I wish I could find that graphic. But being brutally honest is more about making you feel better than actually caring about the other person.
