Just another peacemaking thread

I know that this will probably just be another failed attempt to throw in some logic here, but guys, why are we fighting? We don't need to.

Regardless of who has a feud with someone or who did what to whom, one thing will always ring true: this is the internet, and at the end of the day, your fights with people here don't matter. I hate being frank like this, but you're really just wasting your time getting upset with people. If someone makes a personal attack on you, sure, defend yourself; but there's no reason to get personal. Please be the bigger person and walk away. Yes, it [i]sucks[/i] doing it, but in the end you'll end up a lot less upset.

I'm not pointing fingers here, because honestly, Maplestory characters don't have fingers. I can't. I've tried. But even if I could, it would defeat the purpose of what I'm saying.

Being a Beginner is about having fun, and this isn't fun. This is tedious, petty, and completely unnecessary. I'm sure you're all good people, and you're above this.

Also, lots of people seem to throw out insults like "nobody likes you here" or "nobody cares about what you say" around this forum. To be honest, I don't know who the object of these insults are (I don't know anyone's names here, really), but I can say with certainty that [i]I care about everything that everyone says on this forum[/i], and I don't dislike any one person. I do, however, dislike it when people are mean.

So yeah. Next time you tell someone that no one likes them or that what they say doesn't matter, remember that it's not true, and please remind yourself that you can be the bigger person and stop the fight right there if you choose. It really displays maturity.

Thanks. I hope no one takes any of this personally, because I'm not saying this about anyone in particular. I truthfully hope you all have a great day.

I still stand by my statement that for the people of this section to be civil we need to be drugged.

Deep down I don't really hate any of you, I do find RJ and a couple of the new guys annoying though but I'm easily annoyed.

I think...deep down...Kyle, Phil, Lilly, Drake and the rest of the people singled out in this forum for being "mean" or "rude" actually say those things because they really like the people to which they are speaking.

The Helga Pataki effect.

[quote=Truculently]It's not as if people randomly attack each other for no reason, there is always some kind of reason behind it. And while it might seem like a waste of time, it can be kind of amusing watching people get proven wrong and such.

Edit: You also seem to be overlooking how a lot of the things that get said aren't 100% serious. There is a whole lot of semi-serious sarcasm.[/quote]

Everyone here takes me very seriously, because I'm a very serious person. Seriously.

[quote=Readers]I imagine that this thread, which is harmless and done with good intentions, will also get turned into an argument.

That is not disappointing. It happens a lot.

Now that I've posted this post, there will now be someone who will quote this post arguing that I am wrong. ARGUMENT GO![/quote]

I dunno. It'd be disappointing to me, anyway.

Also, @PcPls123, I was originally considering calling this thread that.
