... why some people stoop so low and are like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crab_mentality

do any of you know what motivates these kind of people to do such a thing?

"Crab Mentality" should replace "Flush It' as the slogan for LP

PTR definitely is the best example of this and it's saddening that it's such a hit lol

^ yeah. sad how people waste their time pulling other people down instead of actually trying to improve their game.

actually, whamm!, ptr is full of jackals, not crabs. when they see you down the harder they kick your ass.

but yeah, if look at jackals and crabs more closely they both suck in life. that's why they are what they are.

When you pull others down it makes you feel better cause you had power over their emotions.

Plus people are stupid as fuck. Do you think they give a shit?
