    I don't think that's the point.

    I never said it was. >_>

    the point is that we're not being any better by...you know...doing this. This whole thing, where we whine and complain about other users, fight constantly and bicker about random shit and immediately turn anything into a possible shitstorm. 

    You supposedly complain every day about how this place needs independency and how you're much better than the judgement you get from outsiders, but you come up with shit like this...and tell me...how are we supposed to think you're better than that?

    It took me a time to get used to this place, admittedly, and it might have helped that I didn't have much expectations as the place was...well...lacking, to be honest, but so are the other forums I visit, so eh. 

    Point is, that is not just the people who are banned right now who need to check their attitudes, in my opinion. 

    ...Sorry?

    Y'know what, I'll just go ahead and take a break from this site for about a week, or a month, or whenever.

    And I know (er, hope) that's not directed at just me.

    With Bob on this one. And I'm kind of worried that I'm a large part of the problem if I can't see it to the extent the rest of you guys can.

    You can change. You can.
    It wasn't directed at you, Bob. It was a general you.

    @Alex: I don't think you're so much of a hassle. although your attitude with Soti wasn't the best. Mine neither.
  • I know. Still, the site's in pretty bad shape right now. Plus,

  • Why don't we all do a general mood lightening drive where we all go out and hug puppies?
  • You can change. You can.
    I don't think it is that big of an issue myself, but it's something that had been boiling over for quite a while. Especially as Soti Coto is a rather...divisive user, as we just saw.

    ^^^ Dude, I initially suggested we all come 'round to mine and have a smoke up, but instead we got this thread. T_T

    It's not you. Although we were supposed to send you a warning due to your behaviour concerning Soti Coto. Consider this post your official warning to cool down regarding him.

    We have messaged most of the people involved. The problem is the people who shitpost outside the WP category, and the people who snipe at each other/swear a lot/stuff like that.

    ^^Well, I'll most likely have a smoke up anyway, just with a different crowd. :P

    Hopefully when I come back, everyone will be happy and calm and gleeful and all that jazz. ^_^

    Not you either. I think. Not so sure here.
  • Honestly, when it starts happening, I simply leave. Then I come back when calm heads have returned.
  • You can change. You can.
    Right now, in my opinion, none of the posters so far are a particular issue.

    They do need however, to post more carefully. Goes to me more than the others, really.

    I wish I could do that.
  • You can change. You can.
    My general boredom and bad timing don't allow me to.
  • My go out and hug puppies plan is still on the table. Just sayin'
  • You can change. You can.
    Yes, and i think that most of us are in the "nobody cares" and "you're not funny" camp when it comes to it. At least, I know I am. 
  • I'm not trying to be funny. I'm just trying to ease the tension. 
  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    Ignoring a problem and/or making jokes about it doesn't cause it to go away.
  • You can change. You can.
    Yup. If there's anything we can learn from this, is that, really.

    I'm aware. I'm just trying to calm everyone down so we can discuss this better later on. 

    EDIT: It's hard to stay worked up when listening to this:

  • You can change. You can.
    by now, it seems that the people who were particularly affected by this are taking a break from their computers.

    @Bob: The swearing a lot and shitposting outside Wonderful Posts isn't actually the issue. It's really just the sniping. Really. And I'm not directing that solely at you. But you're overestimating your level of nuisance.

    Whatever. She's probably on her break now anyway.

    The shitposting is a problem, just a different one that isn't really as huge a problem.

    The major problem is the sniping and personal attacks going on.

    Cygan: It sounds like people can't even agree on what everyone is mad about.
  • Because everyone is mad about something, that in itself is a problem.

    I'm not mad. <_<

    The mods know, at least.

    Problem 1- Sniping and personal attacks.

    Problem 2- Users who don't cross the line, but are very disruptive all the same.

    Problem 3- People not learning when to stay out of threads that aggravate them, leading to Problem 1.

    Problem 4- Shitposting and general stupidity outside the WP category.
