Did you ever rage quit a faction, game or Discord?

Rage quitting involves strong emotions. If we don't care about something, we just walk away.

It involves a Display of Emotions, possibly seeking revenge on the group being left.

Rage-quitting is so pervasive in gaming, there's even emoticons for it:

From the archives, we have this historic footage of the first computer game rage-quit:

And rage-quitting predates computer games, as we can see in the ancient game of Go, gone wrong.

What is the most likely reason you would rage-quit your faction or the game?

(This doesn't include normal quitting for reasons like too busy in RL or got bored with the game)

I did. And I seem to recall someone raging on Crusty recently. Getting yourself fedded is a form of rage-quitting.

Maybe I should add "Trying to troll someone and failing" to the poll.

got tired enough of this game a few years ago to leave. let blackjack decide my fate. the house picked my logging out. i did not return for about 6 months.

i was in purgatory i had a decent amount of money but yet not enough money to do anything and it was getting boring. so i said ok bj pay out big or take it all. i almost raged up when i lost but then stepped back i just looked at the screen for a moment calmly said ok and logged out.

it was a boring time in the game and leaving i was able to meet a more boring life of living in a small city surrounded by corn fields. so here i am been back a few years now.

But Torn isn't skill based in that sense - If you have better stats, you'll win. I guess I'd maybe rage quit if my account was hacked, all my items given away, my faction destroyed, and only to somehow gain a scammer reputation after all that.

Either that or if Ched removed Karma.

Edit: Remind me never to play Go against that guy in your pic.

3rd time trying to do Division 2 Hardcore Mode (perma death)... as close as I’ll ever be to rage quitting a game. I have started broadcasting it a few times. If anyone’s interested in spectating hmu.

Not online but I did have to stop playing nintendo with a kid who got too good to beat.
Getting beat by a five year old was too much.

Dark souls is undoubtedly the most difficult game I have ever tried. I never finished. Good on you if you had the patience to.
