There's nowhere to go from the bottom but up I always say.
And that's the thing about videogames and the people that play them. They're there with benchmarks, goals, and challenges to face but then the goals change and a new challenge occurs, sometimes clearing the scoreboard of your old accomplishment. The real pride comes in knowing that you've done a good job, which further exemplifies why the points (in emotional meta) make some and break others. A toxic behavior to those who are scrupulous and not nonrepentant douchazi.
