Shit talking, how do you react to it

cosign. i’ve never experienced shit talk from a stranger but my friends do it all the time. it’s always a riot.

From my experience, there are a lot of emotianally disturbed people who play games. I’ve been hit on two occasion and made to feel threatened on another. I was a kid at the time mind you not. It’s hilarious how mad some people get when they lose, I actually like gettin beat because it’s always a challenge to return the favor.

At fighting games that I’m decent at, I pretty much ignore most of it.

But at other games (ie. poker), I tend to turn the shit-talking back on the person and make them look stupid for shit-talking in the first place.

“Yo, Imma kick your ass in poker and take your money!”
“Let’s see here. You play every other night, and I never play. If I beat you, I’ll buy you a rope so you can hang yourself for looking stupid.”

i laugh

Unfortunately, this is not true. Yes, some people do it for fun, and I don’t have anything against them… but some people are just stupid, rude and unrespectful.

My brother offered this guy a quarter to play with him CvSNK2. The guy looked like a pretty cool guy but when my brother started stomping him he got really pissed and started talking like a madman. Some people just can’t control their temperment so it’s best to keep the fighting in the game.

Since theres no ignore section to vote at least theres the “puch him in the face” :bgrin:
But best option is to ignore and once you beat him at the game dont say a word because silence some times hurts a lot more than shit talking when your opponent loses and even more if hes a shit talker.

WTF? I talk mad shit back and then we go and have some drinks and talk mad shit to everyone.

SMACK TALK IS THE SHIT.

I look at them and start yelling “WHATCHA GONNNA DO??? WHATCHA GONNA DO, BROTHER???” If they still talk I ask them “How about we go outside and we can play some insert game here on your face?”

That usually shuts them up.

Whenever ive encountered strangers that shit talk, they suck.

Usually its only regulars who get mad and arent really tryin to beef, or friends doin it for comedy or just ribbing.

Well, first of all, I BEAT them if they do that…

Second of all, it depends. I’m usually a good judge of whether or not someone is just joking around or really being a dick. If I win, I’ll just throw it back at them if they’re kidding around, cos they can probably handle it if they’re dishing it out (And they shouldn’t shit talk if they can’t). If the shit talking is malicious and intended to piss me off, I just beat em a few times and then walk off, saying something subtle like “You can play on my quarter, if you want” or something like that.

4th choice

i’d just beat them back and talk mad shit right to their face

it depends on the individual, if the guy was talking shit behind SRK for a long range of time, i’d punch him right in the face

Third for “ignore” option.
These aren’t my friends, and I most likely don’t want to be with these arcade regulars anyway. When I’m at arcades I just want to waste some time, nothing more. If they want to talk shit on strangers, I just find it rude and odd but won’t react to it.

I guess you’ve never been to a East Coast tourney at the Break or Philly then. Shit talking is godlike, I love it! It always amps up the scene and it makes it more entertaining for everyone involved…granted, if it’s done properly, and not tasteless. Personally, I love talking shit at tourneys given the right place and time.

But then again you play GGXX. XX scene knows nothing of trash talking…they’re all polite with golf claps and shit everytime someone wins. I invite you to watch a video of Nagata Lock II or Bryheem Keyes in it the next time it floats around, practically everyone who sees EC trashtalking gets a kick out of it

Generally I talk shit back but only to friends of mine. I don’t talk shit to people I don’t know because you never know how they’re gonna react to it. and I agree with Sabin shit talk makes things alot more fun and intersting as long as it stays fun and doesn’t get out of hand.

You’re right, GG is sunshine and lollipops but CvS2 is the gritty underbelly of the nerd shittalking universe

shit talking ruins the fun for me shrug… one of the reasons I stopped playing games shrug

True. I’ve never been to the East.

And I like GG. And I like golf, too! :sad:

hahahaha

GET HYPE BITCHES ASJKLDJKLASDJKLDJKLADJKLASDNM@(#@()#&*()

Actually, nothing beats East Coast Marvel shittalking. :tup:

The only person in the XX scene that I’ve seen that do MAD shittalk are Marneto and FlashMetroid…but Flash just talks shit just to talk, and it’s kinda tasteless, and Marn gets clowned by everyone even though he backs up his shittalk (sometimes) :confused:

Step your shit talking game up batches…actually, I’m not too good at it myself…i need a bryheem assist to help me
