We say that this site toughens us up. (IIRC). I think we should have a thread for, general advice to help people who don't find it easy to cope with attacks, people disagreeing with them etc. I have come a long way since my immature early days on WP, and I would like to share my own coping tactics, and hear others.
One of mine is just to sit back and realize that all the most intelligent, important people get attacked and disagreed with the most. Al great scientists, world leaders, politicians etc.
Another is just to not post immedialtly, but type it out, then come back to it and think before posting it.
(I don't nessacarily follow these rules )

I find that the proper dedication to
spam makes one nearly immune
to blows landing.

good point , I think if you geniunley think that what you are saying is the gospel truth its bad, but if you have half an idea it may be garbage anyway its ok.

Garbage? Sir, you malign me.
My spam BECOMES gospel
truth, simply by the act of
it's creation.

bollocks. you just figure if you throw enough soggies at the ceiling, a few will stick.

It depends how you interpret the text >:D

We have the forum for people with real problems for when we people want advice, but I don't think its a smart idea having a general emo friendly thread elsewhere, it gives people a false sense of security.
-
Plus it encourages emos to join, which isn't really fair on them considering that we won't enable them in their whiny self-pity.
-
why do emos have hair like hitler?

Hitler commited suicide... hmmm I'm starting to see a connection.

you cope simply by fighting back.
sometimes you must realize that you are wrong. that is when double talk comes in handy. ;)
-

Agreed. So I'm doing ok there.
Another thing is to not answer the insults but the other parts of people's posts (if there are any).

Being emo is fucking great.
You feel so much more.

You feel so much more.

I'll waste it one way or another.
Might as well be feeling.

That's a really good point, but I find it very hard not to defend my point of view when I am challenged.
For example, what if someone said to you, "Renaeden, you are a stalker!" (you are not, of course, this is just an example) what do you say then?
-
another thing for me is just to remember that people who disagree with you will try to goad you into anger, and be ready for it. Not think, "what I'm saying is the gospel truth, so everybody should see sense and agree with me."

I don't usually try to goad to anger, I think I just stick to the hypocritical facts people like to believe about themselves and regurgitate them.
But shoot me down if I'm wrong here.

The passive aggresive player is very easy to play. All you need to do is never bluff and bet all your hands for value. They will let you check all your marginal hands for free. This will destroy them.

That's how I play. But I'm passive agressive.

Then your ideal opponent will be a macho-man with large ego and point to prove. Be a good sport and let him give you all his money.

I would think it funny because I know I am not a stalker. ;D
I must admit, I have not been in the position of fighting off incessant insults.

this is the easiest way to win. but the truth is that we are all hippocritical.

Good point. It helps if the insults are actually funny.
-
Mine are occasionally funny, so it occasionally helps, yeah.

I wear my teflon suit.

Yeah, but I'm not quite that limited.
I DO bluff - occasionally.
