I am a firm believer that if you can't stand up for your own self and fight like a man then you are worthless. Also that everyone now a days is a "hypersensitive" and can't handle a little hardship in their life.
Admirable, but beside the point.
The AvA had some vivid experience with this. There was a particular group of players (not going to name names, but Storch comes to mind) who would trash-talk incessantly. Lusche and some of the other oldtimers will remember this. Ultimately the perps drove nearly everyone out of the arena because people simply do not want to fly in a place where others are making fun of them. It may be cowardice, it may be over-sensitivity, or it may be simply that it's unpleasant to sit in a theater that smells like pee, even if the movie is great. The final result is that people leave.
