You're a lazy idiot.
Why am I not surprised that you're a DK?

There is a difference between people taking the game to seriously and people calling other people out in bgs for not pulling there weight in the battleground.
If you want people to post there experiences you should really give one of your own not one that shows you are just another battleground honor leecher.
Also going on MoW does not count as going out to meet new people.

I am a PvPer(I have a full PvP set/tree spec and know the strategy) and yet I understand where you are coming from when it comes to complete fools blistering the bg chat with their rage. The difference is I get in their face and tell them to shut the hell up..most time they come to check out my gear to try to give me grief and instead I get whispered why I am not raging like them. It is what it is..some BGs are good some are bad..that's the randomness of the game..otherwise form a pre-made.
The option is to stay and fight or to leave and let someone else in if you don't like what's going on. The rage nut and you did neither. Your both at fault.
On a side note..you say you were farming hp for a mount..which tells me your not a serious pvper which is fine..but at least make a token effort to know the bg strategy and acquire some charity pvp gear..in the end it will help your own cause.
If you do raids..just think what your reaction would be if you saw a member show up in pvp gear and then just stand there doing nothing or worse causing wipes, I'm sure a little rage might come out of you..remember PvPers are trying to acquire gear too.

I suck at PvP too, but at least I try when I need to get some honor.

It's not even about being serious, its about not being a conniving bottom feeder to try and let others do the pvp and get your honour for you. Considering you were hiding out, which means the team was at least -1 more person to make it that much harder to win the match.
Participate and probably win more and you will get more honour and your vanity trophies faster.

I dislike people who take the game too seriously.
I also dislike people who don't try in a battleground, for any reason.
Someone starts raging in PvP? Guess what - ignore works there too. Ignore them and on on trying. Otherwise, in my book, you're just as much of a "vinegar-based feminine hygiene product" as the guy who is raging in battleground chat.
Look at it this way: Essentially what you're saying is, "Because this one person is being a jerk, I'm going to stop playing the game, thus dragging down the other 8/23/38 people in the battleground who are actually trying and not being jerks."

The player who yelled at you was not taking it too seriously, you weren't taking it seriously enough.
I'm not certain I would go that far. I would consider throwing a cursing temper tantrum in a battleground, telling everyone how badly they suck at PvP, either taking the game too seriously, or trolling chat. That doesn't let the OP off the hook for reacting in a manner which was just as jerk-ish, to the other people in the BG who continued fighting.

I'm really surprised the OP lasted for more then a minute; most of the time now a days, anyone seen just staying in a corner and leeching honour get's flagged as AFK and kicked out... and then deals with the cooldown while they wait for the next one, seeing as, in the words of the op, he's not there to fight so he wouldn't know how to remove the tag to stay. Beyond that, yeah, Gof22 is just trolling.

So, you're looking for sympathy for getting yelled at because you are a freeloading scrub who thinks the way to "earn" things is to sit in a corner for 30 mins while you're team is losing and could use you? Yeah, we've all seen players who took the game too seriously, but you're freeloading and possiby ruining the battleground for some people by doing nothing, while they could have a good player who is trying their best to win the battleground. The player who yelled at you was not taking it too seriously, you weren't taking it seriously enough.For the millionth time I am not looking for sympathy. Only an idiot looks for sympathy on the internet.
