I'll put it bluntly Nomaken - it gets fucking boring, when people bring whining and negativity to Intensity, and people start feeling obliged to tiptoe around folk and watch their mouths. It just fucks things up and kills the fun, and can make people feel stifled.

But when Intensity has a private forum here which implies that it is safe to expose your vulnerabilities within this community, you can't blame that person for seeming a tad too sensitive online.

I felt that Intensity was easy for me to handle when I did not establish bonds with some people here; I happily acted like a prick with no conscience at all. However, once I've made friends here, I guess I was becoming far more reluctant to challenge those who I consider as friends -- loyalty and all that jazz.

What does that have to do with my feeling that too much whining drags the whole site down, and that if that was what we wanted why did anyone bother leaving WP? There's a middle ground between acting like a tool for the sake of it, and tiptoeing round people in case you hurt their delicate feelings. The forum for real problems was created so that there was an appropriate venue for getting stuff off people's chests, and reasonably enough responding cuntishly is frowned upon in there. Its existence should not be taken as an indication that people will treat you gently if you post elsewhere. Trying to guess where peoples boundaries and sore spots are is tiring and fucking tedious, which is why sensitive souls are encouraged to think carefully before joining us - because Intensity is a haven from having to mind your Ps and Qs.

I'm glad you grew out of randomly flaming people just because you could - but why should developing respect for people stop you challenging them? You're challenging me now, so I'm returning it - join the site again and we'll debate it properly instead of sniping from the outside. Are you up for it Pea?

*sigh* It seems that no matter how hard I try to forget, this place is still like a second-home to me.

Sorry for the unnecessary drama on my part.

Heya Bear. Okay, since it's Intensity tradition, I'm making use of the Main Event thread, seeing as it's not been used for quite a while.

I can't say I am too thrilled about you joining up again, but I guess it won't hurt too much.

Let's see how long it takes before the whole cycle repeats again.

I was wrong about it being a job. It's more of a course, if anything.
