Be warned. What you have received before in rep points may quickly become warnings and temporary bans. This is directed toward everyone who enjoys being hostile. We suggest that you start curbing that behavior quickly, because we are going to start cracking down on it.Â
It's great to be open and honest. You don't have to be an ass hole to others to get your point across, however.
There seem to be a lot of thin-skinned people on this forum who view everything as a personal attack. Someone says they do not think their character is lore breaking, I reply I think it is. They counter, I counter, they counter, I counter, but yet somehow, I have now become an inconsiderate asshole who is not open to others opinions, when in fact that same attitude is implied towards me.
So question: Was I really an asshole, or was that person just overly sensitive and needs to thicken up a bit?
If everyone would stop being so sensitive over EVER. LITTLE. THING. We wouldn't even have this problem.
So I don't agree with someone, so they don't agree with me, I certainly do not care. I recognize that people are different from me, hence different opinions, thoughts etc, but last I checked, I'm permitted to announce my displeasure over a certain topic, the same as someone is allowed to announce their acceptance of it.
And I have a feeling this is what is considered an asshole post, because unlike a lot of people, I say what needs to be said, and people hate the truth. But I should not be considered an asshole over it.
