Why are there jerks?

After reading Papi's awsome diary on XBL, I had a long thought on why people are such jerks on XBL.  Why spend ur time frustrating people because "you were taking their kills"?  Why bother de-leveling so you can kill some new people.  How is this fun?  I enjoy playing the game just the way it was supposed to be played.  Yet, I still cannot grasp how running around acting like a immature little moron brings excitment to ones life.  So, if anybody has an idea of why people do this, please tell me, maybe it will make me that much less frustrated while I am getting team-killed next time I am playing.

    Is what I call it in the sport that I compete in. People will enter the beginner divsions even though they should be in the advanced or intermedate divion. So they can win trophies and make them look good. Or the are affraid if they played against people their level they would lose.Some people try to police it but when you have so many people on XBL its hard to ploice it.People who do that should be banned and not able to play.But I guess since they are paying customers that all that matters

    People will be people and jerks are always going to be jerks we just can't stop that. I know it can be tenuous but by searching through the jerks (which is no easy feat because you blood pressure will likely sky rocket)you will find people who are decent and play like you.

    I am no jerk so you can hit me up near Emergence day if any of you like my Gamertag will be WreckHavoc then, maybe we can play some games.

    Peace out WreckHavoc
