I wasn’t intending for this post to become about me, but ok…
This happens 90% of the time. Too many people bash on me and I dont have the time, patience, or right thought of mind to reply to all of them. I’m just a human.
I try to take it as a joke, but some of the content is… I dont wanna bother
If someone ever feels that they’re personally being harassed they should have every right as an individual to report/block/flag their content.
This is why I’m very upset on Discourse’s (The website we’re using) decision to have the “block” option only last a certain amount of time, as some people have time and time again throughout the years done nothing but shit on me anywhere I go or speak me mind.
I read almost all responses given to me, even the people I’ve blocked just in case they have a sliver of something positive to say - constructive feedback. Otherwise… like most people… if they dont think it’s constructive to the topic, they will ignore it.
I think that in most cases, your opinion on a subject will boil down to your political views, since politics is about power, how its used, and who has it. Talking about things like birds and hunting clearly wouldn’t have any political implications.
However, things like Official Servers abuse (abuse derived from power), or if a EULA should be put in place to stop capitalists from exploiting the game (because they have the power to) is most definitely going to be common place for political discussion, and peoples opinion on the topic will 100% be driven by their political views. I dont particularly like to bring up politics, but when I think its necessary, it should.
I really dont mean to be passive aggressive. A lot of people say I am, but I dont mean to. People keep telling me to say “thanks” or “your welcome” and stuff to counter this, but really thats the entire point of the like button, and saying those things through text sounds very… weird.
Again, yes. Especially on posts I create that I know will be controversial like EULA and then a bunch of people storm the post, uniting together to shit on my ideas faster than I could possibly take the time to make a long, good reply.
EDIT: AND when I DO make a good, long reply people post comments before I even make it, harassing me about shit like “oh here he comes!” “inb4 long ass reply” “lmao its gonna be huge”
I mean, I have meaningful discussion with people when they’re respecting me and not insulting me or when they come into the post starting a bad-faith argument and I change my mind on lots of things, especially on politics. I didn’t magically become the guy that yells at you to “read the bread book” overnight.
Thanks @Aj_Gaming because that was 100% a trashy insult on my character, whether he thought it was or not. Then he had the audacity to defend his “joke” by exclaiming its censorship. Which goes to show how much he respects my feelings. If someone thinks its not a joke, dont make it out to be one. I should have the freedom to post on the forums without “”“jokes”“” like this one popping up.
back to not arguing over a user on the internet.
