There are rarely any good reasons to fight over anything on the internet.   It has all been said and argued over before.   Hence the arguing for no reason.

Disagree. What makes fighting with people you know over the internet any different than fighting with people you know IRL? And just because it's been said before doesn't mean it's been said or understood by you. If nobody was to say anything that had already been said before, the world would be an awfully quiet place....

hm. Maybe you have a point.  :P

I disagree.  :laugh:


Take, as an example, arguing
over how a particular site should
be run.

That is extremely pointless.
:P   Internets are super serious.

Not at all. If done correctly, it can sway
the mind of the person ultimately responsible
for the site. About the biggest thing that
you can manage, on a social web site.
Which goes to say, ANYTHING done on
such a site might just be pointless.

It has happened to me on ZOMG. It's upsets me but I toughen up. It sucks when people all gang up on you and cheer each other on.

When are you going to see that no one was picking
on you there? You fired a completely random broadside,
effectively at the entire membership, and then cried
about it, when people responded.

Sounds like a typical AS attitude.  Tear someone a new asshole, and expect to be thanked for your trouble!!   :laugh:  I've done that myself plenty of times IRL, when it's even more uncomfortable.  And yes, you do learn to toughen up and choose your battles (and opponents) more carefully in the future.

i don't like ganging up on people but Soph had a valid reason to be pissed at you and i was sticking up for her. i have no other reason to be mean. maybe that's no reason at all but i have an honor code just as most.

also what you said generally was offensive. this is intensity. we say what we want.

Or just learn to enjoy even negative attention.  :laugh:

if it sucks so much then why do you keep on bringing it up? it's as if you WANT me to reply. you said shit about sophie. i ignored it. then you complained AGAIN. so i responded.

yet again, you come back and i do nothing. so you talk about it again.

i never ganged up on you. you were a bitch about my friend after she died, then carried on complaining about our site. eventually, most people will get pissed off at that.

why can't you understand that disagreeing with someone and therefore arguing with them about it, doesn't constitute bullying or "ganging up on them"?

i am nice to people unless they give me reason to be an asshole to them.

even then, i try to ignore it. but you are obsessed.

 :laugh:

Take it from Dunc, Odeon, or any number of hapless admins/mods/developers, Soph - when you're running a forum, whoever gets pissed off will inevitably claim they are being bullied and ganged up on. It rarely works to try and convince them otherwise.

I don't think that anyone ever felt that I was
bullying or ganging up, on WP.  :laugh:

Here, maybe. I still felt that whatever I
did was with little or no support. I like it
that way.
