Thanks, I appreciate it. The gaslighting, as you can see, is bad.

[_Gaslighting - Wikipedia_](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaslighting)  
_Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation in which a person or a group covertly sows seeds of doubt in a targeted individual, making them question their own memory, perception, or judgment, often evoking in them cognitive dissonance and other changes such as low self-esteem._

Here are a few gems from the old BF5 thread:

> Exactly. Like I mentioned in another QQ thread the other day, if you go onto the hacker’s forums there are countless ppl whining about being banned by FF. Yeah, you might come across hackers(i think I have once or twice but hard to tell without spectating)but I have faith they’re not lasting more than a game or two. My suggestion to ppl who aren’t used to online fps gaming yet, instead of blowing a gasket and getting high blood pressure, report and move to another server. It’s not like there are a bunch of hackers in BF5 atm. Nothing like CS used to be for eg. And know guys, there ARE many ppl much better than you, better hardware, internet etc. Plus the code is a bit wonky and lag/packet loss makes fps games do weird things sometimes. Also, people just don’t want to hear the freaking out and QQing all the time. Just know, most of us roll our eyes when we hear HACKER!!!OMG!!!1111
