Player rank double standard

It's seriously sickening, it's basically why the majority of the gameplay board is a cesspool, and why the community itself has been spiralling downhill.

Let me make it just simple to save your time and mine; someone on the boards mentioned something about a hypothetical high ranked player saying something like, "The sky is blue!" People would agree just because they have a high rank, hell they could even say the sky is green and people would agree.

If someone like me, someone who can't give any less of a shit about playing ranked says the sky is blue, people immediately jump out of the woodwork to belittle me and tell me I'm wrong when the proof of what I say is staring them in the face.

It's a disgraceful chest-beating competition that really needs to stop, it's no wonder there aren't as much new players joining without the help of events or friends recommending. Because the loud toxic side of the community just drives them away, overshadowing what is a very fun game.

Please, just stop. Are there any Arbiters here who can back me up on this? I really need some assurance that there still are good people in this community.
