That wasn't bait. That was observation on y'alls little teehees as responses to Modding and that people have confided that they've started blocking you guys.
This forum does NOT work like WotC. You guys are sticking out like an unwelcome third thumb. And really, that's a shame.
If you think I was baiting you, then you guys might want to consider that you are interpreting things differently than the regular forum people.
I don't know how you guys should be. I just feel that the current style of posting seems to be escalating things. And it takes two sides to make a conversation get worse. I'd rather the sides to a discussion not be drawn along new guys vs. old guys.
Good luck. Honestly.
Sorry to barge in but your post here brought a couple of things to mind:
First, telling people you're reporting or ignoring them
is baiting. You think you
won't get a negative response when you tell someone you're purposefully treating them badly? Additionally all you did in the post RH called bait was tell us how awful others think we are. That's bait.
Second, I find it incredibly interesting that you decided to take RH's appraisal and tell him he's wrong because he interpreted things differently than other people do. That's interesting because from what I've seen here that's pretty much exactly what ya'all are doing. I don't know if you guys can't understand written sarcasm well or whatever but I've seen very, very obvious jokes taken dead serious by ya'all - whether out of ignorance or on purpose as an excuse to report, I don't know.
Anyhoo, this is a learning experience for everyone - we're learning your rules and you're learning our personality. Trust me, we've been behaving. If you think we're trying to be disruptive you know even less about us than you think. We're very happy that Morrus and some others let us come here after WotC did what they did - I mean that. Give it some time and you'll get used to us and we'll get used to you.
Where we came from was, admittedly, a strange, strange place. So strange, in fact, that I wrote a rather long introductory thread that was stickied and, likely, still is. In it I explained the customs of the forum we frequented most and our habits. I sometimes forget that we don't have that sort of thing to point to here - and we shouldn't because we
are new. Anyhoo, we're oddballs and we do act differently. If that's something you can't handle the best thing probably would be to ignore us. I really couldn't care less. But if you give us a chance I think you'll see we're really harmless and quite a lot of fun to have around.
