It really bothers me that people think so highly of their stats, but it is a stat based game, after all. Everything you do is going to affect your stats, and caring about them takes the fun out of the game.
I care about my K/D, and when I go negative I get pissed and turn off the game. All because of a stupid stat, I get mad at the game. Mainly because if your stats are good, people think highly of you. It's pathetic to be proud of being good at a game, but for some reason having the stat makes you feel accomplished.
I need to stop caring, but I don't know how.
