I am of the opinion that the players are only as bad as the game and the community. Players only use annoying tactics if they are effective. And I don't think that insulting and flaming would be as common in certain videogames if it wasn't accepted by the community. If complaining got you shunned by most players, barred you from skilled clans, and made the community avoid you for the most part, you wouldn't see as much of it.

I personally have chosen to never insult or flame anyone within a video game. If someone is using a tactic I find annoying, I think of it as a chance to improve my weakness. If I am playing a good player, I respect their skill, and again think of it as a chance to learn. If a player is blatantly hacking, saying anything about it wont do anything, and most hackers are trolling anyway (Don't feed the trolls). If my team is playing badly, I just recognize that everyone has to start somewhere, it takes a while to learn to be good. The only time i get close to crossing the line is when people start insulting me or my friends. I don't get angry or annoyed about it, I just happen to find it fun to try and turn peoples insults against them.
