Why can't people accept things?

[Railgun88]

I ask you, "Why can't people accept things?". For example, I was playing an online game of Need For Speed Shift when in a race a player using a Lamborghini Murcielago tried to rear end me to wreck me. Anyways after multiple tries with the result of my car ending up on top of his, my car rolling off the front of his on 4 wheels and being able to drive away, and his car wrecking. After the race was over he had called me a cheater along with a couple others, while not cheating and racing cleanly, he couldn't accept that it was his fault and left.

So my question is, "Why can't people accept things like this?".

Any similar stories??

Because they want to feel superior without deserving it. Denial is the easiest way to achieve such a feeling.

Accepting things we disagree with means we're wrong.

Humans DO NOT like to be wrong.

End of.

Street Fighter IV: I, playing Gen, super combo'd the other guy and ultra combo'd him before he hit the floor. It's a very simple move, but he immediately disconnected and kept entering and exiting my challenge screen, making it hard for me to connect to someone else. Idiot.

Because we're humans. That's why.
And one of my friends won't accept the fact that EA isn't heartless compared to Bobby Kotick.

A:because they're an obnoxious brat who can't even except and piece of wheat toast or
B:because they strongly believe in said situation and is still probably a bit obnoxious
or C: They just think that they are the awesomest thing in the world and anything that goes against, blames cause for cheating,hacking, lag or bullsh*tt.

Many people are sore losers. This just seems to be a fact of life. No one likes losing, especially when they think of themselves as "skilled" in the game. And no, no similar stories. Whenever I play multiplayer games it is in split-screen and it is pretty obvious when other people cheat.

Answer: immaturity, entitlement issues, and the concept of karma being too difficult for them.

Anyways, I've had plenty of people try to accuse me of cheating (more often than not, on an FPS lobby after they lost the game), but for the most part, I couldn't care less about them. In the end, I'll more than likely never see them again, and they'll just keep losing more games since obviously they're the only ones not cheating.

BEcuase PEOPLE are dumb stupid pig like beasts, that only look out for themselves, like to find others who beleive what they beleive so they can feel they are in the right, and will are retardedly ignorant enough to fight to the death to prove someone wrong. THey only reason 2+2=4 is cause more peopel believed that then 2+2=5.

Now, a PERSON can be reasoned with, and can be made, if not to agree, to tolerate and accept someone has a different view then them.

Its basically crowd mentality. The more in a group, the less reason their is individually among them, becuase people like to belong.

And again I'm losing more hope in humanity. Wait, I don't have any more faith to lose.
