The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

[trappedslider]

Dude. Read the room and don't post that here. After 16k posts, it would be nice if this didn't get shut down by you.

I realized before going to sleep last night that I didn't read the room in the other thread and now i'm just going to actually back out of it.

I have posted nothing that would cause the mods to shut down the thread. I haven’t directly named other threads or companies (besides WotC), and I’m not engaging in bickering with other posters here in this thread.

To be sure, here's the aim of this thread according to the OP:

So feel free, if at any time you want to post something negative in another thread, maybe just come here and post something else?​

Emphasis mine. See, the point is not to just dump complaints from other threads into this one, but rather to let go of that complaint and say something else here instead. Hence all the pineapple.

I think we all forget that more often than not, but it's good to remember that the true intent is to diffuse negativity, not just bury it somewhere else. And that's the last I'll say on that.

Me trying to figure out if this is a response to someone I have blocked or it is response to my comment above, which seemed fairly innocuous to me (but admittedly, I don't always get that estimation right).

Speaking of the Pizza-tons, how egregious do I have to find someone else's topping choices before I can call them on that offender? Pineapple, onion and anchovies bad enough, or do I have to wait until they add dolphin, stem cells, and waste? Those Pizza-tons are probably getting itchy just thinking about all the non-Pepperoni eaters!

To answer your question, know that I never "reply" to a comment without ... you know, replying to the comment.

(I don't understand the people who think that just typing stuff will be assumed to be a response to the comment above them, given that other people will often post something before they finish. Besides, the reply function is the only way to be able to follow conversations!)

I'll occasionally do it if there are a string of replies along the same lines, above, and I want to make a sort of blanket response instead of replying to a single poster.

Yes.
