Way to prove that all your posturing about the amount of fuck you give about this thread, and my responses, is total bullshit.

You give fucks.

You're also wrong. Those dudes were plenty hardcore. You're just bound up by your limited view (and understanding) of the concept.

Anyways, if we keep bitching at each other like this we're gonna get in shit. There's plenty of cartoons made for tweenagers out there for you to watch, get on it.

I would say so. I have gotten some useful, non dirty, information from there lately.

That may be true, but then they obviously don't care. Why do you?

Urban Dictionary has been awfully disappointing lately.

<- Guilty as charged. I do play with people that DO have good stats though.

I'm just going to play and enjoy the company of my friends and outfit mates.

Why would you do that when you could sit in forums and argue with people over the meaning of your statement?

EDIT: Some obvious satire

On topic, I'll probably play casually, but try to play with capturing and securing objective in mind instead of killing stuff like mad.

My limited view can be attributed to me been that hardcore.

hard-core also hard·core (härdkôr, -kr)
adj.
1. Intensely loyal; die-hard: a hard-core secessionist; a hard-core golfer.
2. Stubbornly resistant to improvement or change: hard-core poverty.
3. Extremely graphic or explicit: hard-core pornography.

You're right, i do care, this is sort of a sport for me.

Yes, it matters, because SkyeXile's are higher. Duh.

There are some things that have become accepted over the years. Do a lil Google search and there's loads of articles on this subject. Having an opinion on something is fine. People are entitled to their opinion.

The problem is when people start trying to defend an opinion that is wrong, or very close to wrong. Contrary to what we are all taught in the second grade, opinions can be wrong.

Except there's misconceptions being placed around here about being hardcore, being competitive, and being an all star player who gets paid to play.(I don't see any way of the latter being possible in PS2)

I'm not defending anything, i'm saying be realistic about others having the idea that being a "hardcore gamer" can be interpreted very differently which you seem to understand so I don't get why we're arguing about it. Also i have to say this, hardcore/=/excessive playtime *ALL the time, for some players yeah, but not everyone. Also depends on the game, i've played plenty of games over the years at different levels of "fucks given" to understand the difference.
