Illumination said:You know, you were a nice kid- apparently its time for you to spread your testosterone around or beat your chest or something. Maybe you have to act that way to be cool these days, but it sure isn't as appealing as the nice kid I used to remember talking with. Disagree, fine. Point out mistakes- great. Make a positive suggestion to address the same problem-wonderful. I'm tired of all the hostility and sarcasm on the forums though, its chasing anyone with an ounce of maturity away.
Sometimes one idea that is not the answer will spark an idea in someone else that is. But with replies such as these, from the supposed leaders of the Bushtarion community, no one will bother anymore.
Taken from another topic. Tiff hit the right spot, superb post, and I feel the same about it. I think it can be pointed at way too many people these days. Some have been acting like total monkeys to people on the forums, newbies and oldbies alike, in seemingly every thread they post on. Remember when we got these new forums as playground? Azzer himself made a topic asking for useful discussions- we agreed to be nicer, relax, be more open to ideas and welcoming! The forums should be fun to read and not full of negativity.
Think about it; face to face, would you talk to someone the way you're 'talking' here? I highly doubt it. Treat others like you'd want to be treated. It's so easy. Be social, civil, act nice! It's so much more enjoyable for all of us. If you can't, keep out. It's better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.
Thanks for listening.
