Is the community split half and half on this issue?
« on: October 12, 2013, 12:31:15 PM »
Been many threads lately where the same argument comes up and I'm not trying to debate that situation but what side of the fence are you on?

1.This is the internet and it can't be taken seriously

2. The manner of which you conduct yourself online is the same as how you act in person.

Personally I'm a 1, wouldn't mind seeing who's the majority and who says one thing but does the other.

Even on line, you are still communicating with people.
Even when you play, you play with another person.

It is all about communication.

If a person has a bad attitude in real life he'll show it on-line as well.

I treat everyone the way I'd want to be treated. That's in person or online or in a old fashion snail mail.

I make banter and joking insults with my friends in real life as well. We know it's all in fun and games and we don't mean it. Same with the internet. Don't take things seriously, we're here to have fun.

I don't see how the medium in which I'm interacting with another person has any bearing on how I should talk to or treat them.

you are who you are. Its just that in real life you have to live with consequences of what you say or do where on the internet you can hide.

I would suggest that you stop these threads accusing others of being hypocrites and show us how brave you are. Post what said here and let HT and the community decide who is a hypocrite and if it is ok because its the internet.  I dont think you have the balls to do it.

I have two daughters. If you said that to them and I was there, you can imagine what would happen. So, man up and say it again in a place where you cannot hide behind the internet excuse or let it go.

Agreed.   Also ask anyone who have had actually met me in person and they will tell you that I treat them how I am treated.

Thought that was elephantitis...   :eek:  (kidding)
Alcohol has caused some issues in the game.  I regret some things I've said in the past.  Live and learn though I've been taught.
I've been away from the game for a while, but I still enjoy visiting the forums.  I have taught myself not to post anything on here, when I've had too much.
