That was a really nasty and immature jab. What's the harm in discussing ideas? Even if you can't do it exactly you might come up with something more possible out of it.
God the negativity. I feel really down now. Thanks for that.

I am very sorry.
I want to make this crystal clear: THE ADMINS AS A WHOLE did not call anyone stupid. One person made that thread. As far as I know, he did not consult any one before making it.
I have now deleted it. It was very rude and unacceptable.

That thread is deleted.
I don't think you're stupid. I don't think any suggestions are stupid. Yes, some may be a bit less logical than others, but none of them are stupid and none of them will be denied purely because one or two admins disagree with them.
I'll apologize for him. Sorry that he said that.

The thank system has potential... if it's implemented correctly. And yeah, stupid is not a nice word. I sound like Barney.

Thanks  I was stupid to think I could take part in a forum, I'm too sensitive, things like this really really upset me a disproportionate amount. The more positive i start to feel about something the more it is gutting to be crashed down to earth by something like this. I mean I don't mind a debate or a discussion, but an outright "no you're wrong". No reason given, it's just not an encouraging or productive atmosphere. If i hadn't felt like this was a safe place I wouldn't have said anything. I know how ideas work, I know for every 100 ones that won't work you get maybe 1 that will, if you're lucky, but that's the whole fun of it, working with the impossible ones and seeing what you can get out of them and how that will inform your experience with the next failed idea, and the next, until you have a success. I don't know how we're supposed to take part in anything if we get dismissed thoughtlessly by the people who are supposed to be the guides, I'm not sure posts are always even read first. How are we supposed to feel like it's okay to talk about stuff if someone's going to tell us it's outright stupid and not explain why. Conjoin Music I really like Barney! There was someone who knew the power of positivity. He never sat down and said "Look at me, I'm a fecking purple abomination, I shouldn't even be allowed near children, i'm a tyrannosaurus rex for crying out loud." No, he was all positivity and magic and didn't let negativity drag him down. |

Barney was a total freaking bad ass. And rabbit, you're a pretty cool (guy? girl? Your gender isn't displayed...). I totally agree with you. It was immature and wrong that he said that. That's against what this community is built on. People are discussing things all over the place and it's great. To say that someone is downright stupid is very bad.

Thanks but Ah since the thread is deleted i have to try and remember it in the interest of fairness. He didn't directly call me stupid. It was the idea he said was stupid, I can't remember the words, but he basically said that some of the ideas were obviously idiotic and mentioned a few by name or suggested which he was talking about and said from now on they just wouldn't be allowed on the forum. |

if an admin actually said that, he/she should really rethink if he/she should be admin imo..
@rebecca: I've seen some awesome stuff from you here, and I would be sadened deeply if this would stop you from keeping posting.
This person obviously had a bad day or so, as no ideas are stupid an nothing should be dismissed as just being stupid like that.

Rebecca implies that you're a girl. Amirite? If it doesn't, I feel VERY sorry for you.

Is it worth it if every now and then something comes along and upsets me, I could try and be thick skinned, and I can be thick skinned, but not without turning off the parts of my brain that I need to be (what I thought was) useful here. Being positive and expressing raw ideas you really leave yourself exposed. It's actually the reason I quit art. Being negative you can be closed off, you don't have to show any of yourself, it's very safe. ha ha ha! I would too! Thanks you made me laugh gonna go to bed and have a think and a sleep. |

I've always been sensitive. Seeing a guy cry is not as accepted as seeing a girl cry. I eventually just thought to myself that they be more athletic or smarter than me, but I'm more intellectual than they are. I shouldn't let them bring me down. That helped me get through elementary school. Yeah, I was a pretty cool 8 year old.
Fun Fact: Conjoin had to repeat kindergarten because he cried too much for grade school and the adults didn't think he was ready. Srsly.

lol, that last thing is kind of funny, sorry if that offends you Since I'm fat, I've learned how to deal with criticism by experience, and the fact that I'm really easy going and connect with people easily makes that a lot easier for me tbh |

I've learned to accept that my way of expressing emotion is crying. I think it's funny too. I actually had a permanent pass to the Guidance counselor last year because I cried so much. Last year was my transition into public school and it was really overwhelming. I look back at the whole thing and laugh, though.

Right, I'm sorry for what I said.
I'm not going to say anything more, because if I do, i'm going to get in more shite and then you all would make a suggestion saying "Get rid of VampiricPadraig as a admin"
And I would say, that most of you would agree with that suggestion!
Amirite?

When ever we post something we need to think "What tribal level is this?" That should solve most problems.
