!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

What does "overcompetitive" mean here? Is it a player silently trying their best or those toxic players that try to tell you how you should be playing?
The second one
This post is talking about the second one but I have definitely been called try hard just because I'm quietly and politely trying my best in a non-ranked game and the other team doesn't like losing.
I think you answered your own question!
Just because it seems obvious to me, I don't assume I'm right, hence my question. However thank you for your answer that seems to confirm what I thought its the "telling" folks being called out here.
