its all about anonymity - you dont know where that person lives, that person doesn't know where you live and that anonymity gives these people 'power' and they say whatever they want because 99% of the time they won't or can't be held accountable for their actions unless they were using the gaming platform as a means to 'stalk' or harass you.
A good example is CoD - CHILDREN call each other names, ADULTS tend to be racist if they think youre black and ive seen so many cases of this from videos on youtube, namely a guy called 'ELPresador' -- If he never showed his face on his channel, everyone would think he's black, Ive seen in so many of his videos back in the day when he used to play CoD a lot where other players above the age of 18 just start getting all racist because they are losing. Some were racist even when they werent losing. Im sure the same behaviour is exhibited in other MP games...
Back when i was a heavy player of PvP in Guild Wars, I would regularly get other players whispering me abusive comments because they got out played and got their ass beat. People take games too seriously and get really salty about getting their ass beat.
To a lot of these idiot players -- they think their behaviour is acceptable because its the internet.
However if i ever caught my child behaving the same way then i would sure as fuck smack him in the mouth and let him know such behaviour isnt acceptable in my house... Of course he will be allowed to shit talk other players -- sometimes its all apart of the game. but when he takes it too far then I will be there to make sure he gets back on the right track.
