> Indies can do whatever they want because they're their own agents, but when you're part of a group your actions reflect on all of them. A shitter with a bad attitude can wreck the image of a small company single-handedly as it shows they tolerate utterly sub-par people and sets the bottom of the barrel.
> It's easy to be an edgy stupid asshole online, to say and act in ways more amplified than you are in-person - everyone can do that, fuck basically everyone does that in fact - but, it's harder to uphold a good ideal image of yourself successfully, indefinitely, and do it in an authentic/genuine-feeling way. This is why the latter is more valued to people here. Children and casuals who either are new to the internet or don't use it that much still find the former "lol she's edgy wow!" attitude appealing but when you've been using the internet for 10-20+ years and have seen it all, you know it's nothing special.
