I'd say this is a bad call and stereotyping people.
It's easier to just step down and chill, I really have to say we all have to respect everyone's choice of life.
There's no high and lows for whatever each one choose to do with their life, and definitely not you or me to judge them, unless they're committing crimes.
Of course there will be sides when it comes to a winner loser conflict, so people do have to take it in when it comes to losing.
And I assume everyone are sure in heart that NMLA will lose, but what we're debating here is:
"Is 20% of max contribution set as tier 1 reasonable?"
Whether the top 10s, 10% 25% 50% 75% gets what, and the remaining 25% gets nothing, are the game rules where everyone is told before the game starts, and we have total no information on how the tier bars are set until the game actually proceeds while players start to fill up the bar, so, as long as the bars are reasonable, people are fine with it.
The problem is, after a day or 2 into current CG, people took a step back and said:
"Hey, is this a nomal situation for CGs? Is this reasonable?"
Thus the debate on whether the situation is normal or not, it has nothing to do with "Hey, suck it up, losers."
The thing you might think of "Whining" is a very democratic practice on minorities, where most of the tax goes to while tax payers think "Why the hell should I pay tax for ****?" When those tax are exactly a big move on community goals in real life.
There are games when it's all about git gud totally kills the game, and there are those where everyone gets a candy ruins the game, the whole political struggle on how much git gud and how many candies should be given is a forever struggle for game makers, at least we have a choice of open / private / solo, it would be total git gud if it's open only and much griefing would be done, then the PvE player base will be gone, leaving it PvP only, the game might still survive with pure PvP base, or not, it will only be known when the game is played, just like how we know how the tier bars are set when CG starts.
Out of that, I just have to say, if it's logical and reasonable, by fair rules and law, people will obey, but if over favored, over handicapped, people will say it's unfair, by people here I mean the conscious majority.
Though whatever I said whether it's objective or not, whiners whine, and such is life, but we still have to respect their rights to speak out.
[Edit]
Oh, such is also a political ideology, whether it's the democratic Feds, though they love voting, after all it's still hierarchy dominated by capitalism.
Or Emps, people need to be divided into different classes, some are just born to rule and above all else, while you can still play a little of democracy with your senators, but when they say no, your democracy don't exist.
