No, I do not except patronising comments from you, McJ. I am perfectly able to make my own decisions. Besides, why should I listen to other people's opinions if they will not consider mine. Some people here are so stuck in their ways they make George Bush and bloody Osama Bin Laden seem like liberals. And how dare you bring up incidents from my past. You know nothing, absolutely nothing.
And nor do I take advice from wannabe paedophiles. Fuck you, Pete. And God help those kids you are wanking over.
This may be an arena, but I am not a gladiator. Nor am I here for people like Lucifer's entertainment. So long...
Well I wasn't going to comment on this since I'd assumed you'd already left, but since I saw you logged in this morning maybe I misunderstood the 'so long' comment. How you can make of this what you will Robert, but my intentions are positive (its up to you whether or not you read them that way) and I'm speaking from experience. Basically, it seems to me that you've gotten yourself in a frame of mind where you read every commment made to you on here in a negative light, its easily done since all you have to go on is text on screen- no tone of voice, no body language,etc. I agree that recently you've faced some confrontation but I agree with McJ that you asked for it by slagging off several people at once-you must realise that those people have the right to answer the accusations you levelled against them, just as you have the right to make them.
I didn't read any hint of McJ patronising you in his post, but since you obviously did ask yourself this question- if someone you considered to be a friend made that post what would you have thought their intentions were then? In other words, would you have read it to be patronising?
People make piss-taking comments to each other on here all the time, but it seems to me that for a while you've taken the ones made to you incredibly seriously. You seem to think that certain members hold some kind of grudge against you and I think it colours how you react to their posts- I've been in situations like that in the past and it took me a long time to realise that most people don't take the stuff that goes on on a message board seriously and whilst they may make nasty comments it doesn't necessarily mean that they hate me or that they are bullying me. For most people message boards are just a form of entertainment and they don't think that anyone might be hurt by their comments- and really, most of the time, there is no need for anyone to be hurt. In fact, some of the comments you have made could be considered to be hurtful if people took things as seriously as you seem to do (for example, the times you've told people they should get a job, not being able to hold down a job because of the stresses it places on you is disheartening enough without having someone throw it back at you as an insult).
Now its up to you to decide whether or not you can lighten up and take the piss taking in the nature it is intended. And its up to you to decide where you spend your online time, but please stop making yourself out to be a victim of the villains of intensity because it just isn't true. Whilst this might seem harsh I can see that you're putting yourself though unnecessary pain and I think that if you even consider what I've said it might just lessen this in the future.
