> [@Zaera\_Keena](#): > > I am puzzled though, why do you not like gankers? I don’t hate their playstyle, they’re playing it in their own way and I understand that, but I find they can be rather self adsorbed. Not saying that goes for all gankers, but it’s to the point where I can’t tell if they’re joking or not. ---

> [@TheHound\_OfGreys](#): > > it’s to the point where I can’t tell if they’re joking or not. Hi Hound, being self-absorbed is not a state peculiar to gankers - as any cursory flick through the forums will demonstrate. Your second point is well-observed, and is a problem for some who have not been part of the culture. Being understood is important, but apparently not as important as being entertaining, these days, so you’ll see some anti-gankers try to emulate a ganker’s use of humour as a wrap-around for more serious considerations. Quite often they fail, mainly because they are so incensed by the very existence of gankers and ganking, that humour, eventually, inevitably, evaporates. If you can’t tell whether gankers are joking or not, try stripping away the obvious trappings of humour. If what remains makes sense, then respond to that. If there is nothing beneath the veil - it was just for laughs. Of course, _sometimes_ the ganker is both joking _and_ not joking. It is possible for antithetical notions to co-exist, but this is _Advanced Forum Warfare_. ---

> [@Aiko\_Danuja](#): > > Wow, so you hate an entire race of players First of all, it is not a race of players it is a subset. Semantic assholishness aside, no I do not hate gankers. I hate self adsorbed people, and a decent chunk of gankers happen to fall within that category. I used to hate gankers, but then I got good enough to not blindly stumble into gate camps. And no, I do not lack social skills, I just do not find your brand of humor funny, because you tend to keep it on at all times, making it hard to discern your actual opinions and what is supposed to be funny. Everything in moderation, you should know this by now. ---
