...but the fact of the matter is this: The more I read the posts in my last thread, coupled with certain things going on in my life, the more I was left with no choice but to sound off. I can't sit idly by while people continue to get away with stuff life this without saying my peace, so here goes.
Now, I'm sure that everyone here will agree that there are people here who are annoying. (NMX comes to mind, but only at times) However, there comes a point where n00b-pwning goes beyond putting a n00b in their place, and slandering/libeling someone who may or may not deserve it. Last night, while I was out, such events occured, and imagine my frustration when once I got onto MSN today, and the very friend and person I look to for cheering up at the start of each day is crying to me. TO ME!!!!! I'm a very calm person, unless I am provoked, and this provoked me. At first, I tried to ignore it, but it wouldn't go away from my brain, and finally, I had to say something.
Most here know that it takes a SHITLOAD to piss me off, but it happened excessively today. It's a beautiful thing the internet provides us to slander people anonomously, but when you know the person, then it gets personal, and I come here to get AWAY from personal. That's for real life, and MSN only, not here. I am sick and tired of bullshit like this intruding on my life, attitude, friends and others. Now I'm not so sure I WANT to bring my brother into here because of this crap!
So to cite recent example, Lazlo, I don't care what your personal opinions are of Kas, leave 'em out of here! I don't want to see the flame war of sibling rivalry! For god's sake, this is the very reason that PC took off! I liked that guy, and now he's gone because your interactions around here are starting to become nothing but one big flame against your sister! Man, when you start to get older, you'll begin to appreciate family values more than you do. There were times I wished my brother was never born, but I love that guy to death, and he's turned out great! You ever hear the phrase "Positivity yields a better crop than negativity?" Trust me, it's true.
Now certain people deserve it. (That PokeMon freak and Endtype come to mind now.) But I think we need to keep it to them. I hate coming on here and seeing friends, best friends of mine in flame wars with each other! It makes me upset, angry and pissed off! And when I get that way, it's funtime for NO ONE BUT ME[/b], as I will make someone's life a living hell. I try to contain my anger, and I do it very well, but when stupid shit like this goes onn, it REALLY pisses me off!So, as a favor to me, in the future, keep this kind of shit away from my safe haven of enjoyment and fun, please! I consider ALL of you friends, (yes, even NMX, for some unfathomable reason) and would see this place as a place of fun and escapism. Remember, the best mods and admins are the ones who police themselves.
This also goes for everybody, not just Laz. He was just a recent example I was using, so Laz, don't think I was singling you out, yours was just the straw that broke the camel's back. Now that I've vented, I feel better.
Thanks for listening guys, I really neede to get that out of me.
There, that's out of my system, back to the frivolity!
