As to the M rated game, agreed. You and Tina (the beloved Mrs. Occhi) are apparently doing a mind meld. :)
As to the 'acting like kids' for the allegedly mature, yes, they are begging to be flamed. But that takes effort.
In the pubbies I have played in, it takes a certain catalyst to get me started on typing a zinger rather than killing a Moon Lord or dodging yet another set of LEB eruptions. Something about the Hostile button that makes such a diversion easy. With a beggar, I find it easier to use squelch, and to once again thank Blizzard for remembering to make that feature work very effectively. :)
Between Squelch and Town Portal, two features work absolutely perfectly in Diablo II.
It's a start . . . :)
EDIT: Oh crap, Town Portal is not really perfect. I usually gets you to town, but the common problem of Portal stacking, where there is one blue portal when multiple folks have on up, and your own is not 'selectable' refutes my 'works perfectly.' So, we are down to one perfect feature: Squelch.
It's a modest start.
