LadyCrimson Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 On another useless topic of my day, it's almost 3pm, where is my Amazon Fresh order? I'm hungry! I want my salads and munchies! Also, I'm still in brain-knots over how much I should give for the tip section when I order from them. It's not it's like full dining service but hey the driver uses their own car and saves me physical labor. 5%? 10%? I waffle. “Things are as they are.

SonicMage117 Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Right now I have a few minutes to play some RDR2. Will probably play it for a good 45 minutes, picking off some of you sub-quests. This year is almost over and it was a year that made me proud to own PS4. Ahhh, yes RDR2 standard edition comes with a map but if you get special education, you get a different map - you might get something else to. I just got the normal one (special is not normal). Just what do you think you're doing?! You dare to come between me and my prey? Is it a habit of yours to scurry about, getting in the way and causing bother? What are you still bothering me for? I'm a Knight. I'm not interested in your childish games. I need my rest. Begone! Lest I draw my nail... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurlshort Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I've been thinking about leaving the forum. That SonicMage guy pretty much spams every thread with his negative garbage. I think he's accounting for about 30 percent of all activity lately. I reported him over the gay bashing stuff and it didn't seem to matter, so maybe it's time I take a break. I find myself typing posts and then deleting them because I don't want to engage with the troll, which just seems like a big waste of time. I'm sure I'll lurk around every now and then, take care folks. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonicMage117 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I wasn't bashing any gays? What makes you say that? I have nothing against gays as I have a few friends that are. If I'm really that much of a thorn in your side then you could just block me, sorry to hear that though. I actually thought about leaving the forum a couple times but for the people that fund me annoying, that would make things for too easy for them I think. I never thought I was being too negative though lol I think what bothers people is that I continue when there's really no need but it's strange to me because I have the right to post as everyone else. So people saying "You shouldn't post like this because we dont" or replying/trolling me and acting as if I'm the one trolling for responding in the same manner never made much sense tbh.

I didn't block him or leave the forum. I just stopped engaging him. There is still plenty of interesting discussion to be had. Besides, the WoT board accounts for what? 10 minutes of your day? I look at it about 3-5 times a day unless I'm really talking to someone. We lost Wals because he was tired of Oby, other trolls have run off other posters. Don't let it bug you.

Tbh, maybe I should stay away from the Way Off Topic and Computer and Console sections. I've learned that no matter what I say, feels like most people will disagree with me on them, while people agree with me on the Pillars/Deadfire dedicated sections which I used to be more active so can't help think that the cult of people here are just different minded or expect differently. Maybe I should stick to those sections and let people have their peace, it's only the same 20-25 members anyway so... Edited November 19, 2018 by SonicMage117 Just what do you think you're doing?!

I haven't figured you out yet TBH. There have been times I'll come here and post something just to provoke a discussion. Stir the pot a little. But for the most part what I say here is pretty much what you'd get from me over drinks in a bar somewhere. You have posted some pretty far out statements then argued about them. So I'm curious. Do you really believe everything you are selling or are you stirring the pot? You've posted links and videos that make some indefensible statements and refer to them as some kind of authority on the matter. If you want to be taken seriously that is where you are going wrong. If you are just stirring things up I'd suggest dialing it down a bit. A little bit is fine, too much is too much.

Serrano Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I'm working on a web design course and wondering why I can't get a couple of buttons to scroll down to different sections. I'm comparing my code with the code in the tutorial video and I'm not seeing anything different. My best guess so far is that there is a mistake elsewhere that is causing problems but I don't think I'm good enough at html or java yet to spot it. Frustraiting.

Regardless, you are welcome to post in any thread you like in accordance with the forum rules. Other posters will engage you, or not, as the schtick runs its course. Thank you. I didn't ever want to resort to the style of defensive/pre-defensive posting but even if I don't and I happen to say something of opinion that others don't like, I'm assumed a troll. Ad I mean, it doesn't have anything to do with "the reputation you've built up and now you deal with the consequences" but rather just how members are generally treated when they "step out of line". For example, I was called a troll earlier for stating my preference if video card manufacturer due to my past experiences ad the fact that I still owned a working 9800 Pro. I can't figure out why a couple members would call that trolling but that wasn't even me using defensive posts so, that has pushed me into expecting this type of reactions as the norm. It's a bad mentality but generally I respect as I am respected. I asked why I am/was viewed as a troll for the posting and am awaiting an answer because I'm not sure if I was somehow misunderstood or what happened there. It doesn't really bother me but I am just curious for the sake of it Hell, this comment may annoy people, Idk anymore lol I like this forum alot though, I'm just happy to be here and write my socks off, even if my comments are meaningless.
