    Being in and amongst that community for a year of my life .... I can totally believe the threats. It's one of the most petty, vicious and hostile communities out there. Best part is when you see the little turds in real life and make him and his whole 'tough guy' clan cry to mommy

    This is exactly why I like single-player games. I don't have to put up with these sorts of people in them.

    Its funny how a lot of the trolls in this community are snotnose kids. I've heard them on their headsets on some sessions and pretty sure they are too young to play games like COD.
    Bad parenting is to blame.
    Nothing is permitted, everything is true.

    Death threats because they made your gun fire .2 of a second slower.... wow. Just wow.

    This is really ridiculous, I mean, death threats over something trivial like gun changes?

    Wonder if they'll even notice the difference without the patch note.
    Should try a ninja update and see if there is an outcry.
    Just don't change the crouch speed, else they'll complain about the delay time between teabagging each other.

    More seriously, please don't release these players into society.

    This is why COD is such an important part of modern society. It keeps people like these (that made the threats) out of public places where somebody would probably have to keep an eye on them.

    Thank you, Activision, for making our streets a little less retarded.
    One day, I'll grow up and become responsible.
    Probably not today.

    I am pretty sure they can trace the people who made the threats?
