lol what a douchbag.

Funny how much stupid behavior Fortnite inspires

Like divorces.  But I'm 46.  Proud of it.  You should see the reactions from kids of friends when they see my collection.  One of the kids asked me, "What is your favorite thing to do in this house?" referring to my game collection.  My answer was, "Spend time with my family."  And then I'd call out a few of my favorite games.  The kid in question and his brother play Fortnite BTW.

Yes people, I povoct, You povoct, He/She/Me povoct, povoct, povocting, povoctology. 

Anyways being "povocted" is not an excuse and that question should not even be in this equation. Dude's fucking 11. 

Tsts... Multiplayers. So typical.

You don’t threaten someone, even if they’re being immature, insulting or even threatening to you (Don’t sink to their level). Might be a ‘heat of the moment’ kind of thing but you need to control yourself as best you can. Report it, ignore them or just leave. If you can’t talk it out, of course. Easier said than done, but that’s what we should strive for.

x10 if its a freaking kid. Bad behavior or not.

Eh, gaming in general seems to attract this kind of behavior for whatever reason. I know of a certain internet "celebrity" who made death threats against a pre-teen girl because she beat him in a Parappa the Rapper contest - and that was a decade or more ago, if memory serves.

I mean look I'm usually the one to hold people accountable to a degree people would consider unreasonable, but really? 

Who cares if an 11 year old "provoked" him? He's a fucking adult. What could he say that provoked him? Cuss words? Slurs? Was he trolling? So what? That's just standard 11 year old online behavior. It's normal and instead of criticizing him for the possibility of that happening all accountability should be put on the party that is mature. 

this why ps4 is the best place to play folks

Yeah, no.  When a child does something wrong, you don't just go, "lol that's normal."  That's how you end up with adults who are assholes.  

Each party is responsible for their own actions.  The actions of one do not negate or dismiss the actions of another.
