#47 - And now for something completely different (Part 2: Electric Boogaloo)

[anonrisingcocomod]

This is a Star Trek anon comm now. Make it so, nonnies.

Just kidding! Since the attitude in the comm has chilled out a little, I'd like to try another post without a Wanker Thread to see how it goes. The Wanker Thread is still present on the comm, but hidden to you (for now) and will be brought back if any big drama occurs that people feel should be contained. You can still make complaints about things that annoy you on Flight Rising, but let's try and keep the vitriol at a minimum. 

Oh, and welcome to The 47 Society, AnonRising!

"because neener" isn't accurate at all. it's more "because i was put off by the needless patronization," as far as i can tell. which is..valid enough? the rest of the post was fine, but it's okay to not want to listen to someone who's being impolite. different people have different levels of tolerance for this stuff.

and the condescending as hell way they responded makes me much less sympathetic than i would be otherwise.

It was literally two words and two punctuation marks at the beginning of a post. If I said that your lack of caps put me off and that I then didn't read the rest of your post because of that reason because you're putting on an air of carelessness that I don't care for, people would rightully call me an ass, because it's completely irrelevant and the polite thing to do is to actually scroll past. The other thing is that the original post actually wasn't just quibbling with word usage, it was saying: Not all the accents are eyes, here are some I personally enjoy! But you know, YMMV, tone and all.

Actually my bad, it was literally three words and four punctuation marks, I forgot to count the quotes. :P

If you're going to be That Person that is so knowledgable about words that you feel the need to correct others, it would help if you would better interpret how they're being used in the first place. For example with above, "literally" wasn't literal, and something that was akin to "Hey I'm really put off by your post" wasn't "neener". Lack of punctuation/caps is pretty common in this era, so everyone would roll their eyes at you if you said you didn't read for that reason, yeah, but correcting others has generally always been considered pretty rude. So, I guess here we have someone being rude for the sake of calling out someone being ruder.

But anyway, now we're devolving into offtopic land, so I'll leave this at that.

Freezing this section because it got into an off-topic argument.
