It's cool man. Trash talk to me is both private and public. I watch a lot of NFL Football and some NBA Basketball as well, and I know there is a ton of trash talked out on the field and court, a lot of that isn't meant for the public or general viewing audience, but is still trash talk.

I just think this whole particular thing is one giant non-issue that is being argued about for the sake of arguing lol

Keyboard warriors probably dont want to hear it but the vast majority of the people complaining have not spent very much time watching sports to make an accurate comparison between the two. Unfortunately for you, we need these players because exciting games dont make sports popular, in fact most games are dreadfully boring, the storylines make the game and we should relish this.


I get you, my point is:
- Trash talk is public.
- Harassing/disrespecting people may be public and/or private.

While both categories are able to use the same words and expressions, one is made exclusively public for the sake of fame/rating/publicity/ego-centrism/etc, and the other is just one person being a dick to another whatever the reasons (ego-centrism for instance).

The public one is usually mutual and "accepted" or tolerated. On the other hand the private one is usually condemned because ethics and moral are in the way.

Trash talk isn't public. Hell the worst of it is never public because the shit athletes say on the field or court is stuff sponsors don't like to hear. Michael Jordan is probably the greatest trash talker of all time. He would mentally destroy people on the court. And we never hear what he actually said. Only players memories of it. None of it was public. But it was still trash talk.

I don't know where in the real world you live, but it must be very violent if getting punched is a common reaction to something like that.

From my experience, a common reaction would be casually trash talking back, or laughing it off if you have a more passive personality.


Most people who say "all trash talk gets you punched" gets most of their social interaction by watching movies or TV and has no idea how actual conflict is resolved between adults.

Been watching ppd's stream recently. I've noticed that he hates it, and I mean really hates it, when people are constantly talking over the mic. Even if they're explaining things game related. Seems he preferred communication via typing.

I can really see why he didn't want to play with Aui anymore, their styles were just too different. He'd probably hate playing with me lol.

Probably just hates pub players pretending like they know what they should be doing lol. I don't think you should draw too many conclusions from his livestream pubs.

That could be it. One of his games, there was an AM, even after realizing that it was ppd playing and after they'd already won, who was telling him to not leave the carry as a support. It was pretty ridiculous.

He still in general seemed annoyed at people using the mic every 5 seconds though.

I dont think it bothered him that much, if it actually did he would have just muted them...
