I guess it's because I've had a temper problem all of my life, but... To me, anything that involves a large amount of people is going to make someone upset. Being angry on someone else's behalf or upset that they're unhappy is all well and good, but it's not a reason for you to pull yourself out. At least, that's my view on things.
God knows I'm not her and that I don't fully understand all of the factors going into her decision. God knows that applying my personal standards to other people has landed me in hot water before.
But, y'know, bringing issues up (to people who aren't already furiously angry at the time) can actually do a lot to help them get resolved. Just... limping along in silence doesn't help in the long run.
I guess the question is, do you care enough about the game to want to resolve things, or do you just hurt too much and want to get the fuck out? There's ways to handle both situations gracefully, and they both require communication.
