Message: <blockquote data-quote="Jardel_Karabella" data-source="post: 2560937">Well said Nic, well said.However I am a firm believer that we will always judge and always be judged, and that judgement itself is part of how we have fun.  Indeed to say we're not here to judge is to pass judgement on those who judge. (Arean't paradoxes great?)  To be realistic, there's not a person having fun here who doesn't judge.With the rare exception of folks who seem to love all kinds of company each of us will judge some people to be fun to roleplay with and some who arean't.  The most important thing to remember is that we are, infact, here to have fun, and so are the other people. Even those you judge not to be fun to roleplay with, and they are just as entitled to their fun as you.I think that in reality the problem is sometimes we lose sight of what we're here for and instead of chasing fun we start stewing on our grievances.The reality is we can't have everything all the time, sometimes things go wrong, people get upset, people are rude, etc.  When this happens the important thing is pick up and get back to having fun, rather than focusing on what's stopping us from having fun.We can't change what happened yesterday, we can't change other people.  All we can change is ourselves.  We will always make mistakes, we all always make mistakes and not realise them until it's too late. We will always have pleasent surpises and great disappointments.  We will always have bad ideas we think are good, and good ideas we mistake for bad.Roleplaying is a social thing. Social means people, and where there are people there will always be people who are rude, people who bully and people we plain just don't like.None of these things should get in the way of having fun. All you have to do is learn from the mistakes, move on from the disappointments and onto the fun people and moments when you find them.So learn from your msitakes, move on your disappointments, hang on to the good times and the good people. Have fun and let have fun.Don't do it because I wrote a long diatribe about it, don't do it because Nic wrote a poem about it, don't do it to be cool, don't do it because it's a "community", don't do it because the Code of Conduct says to.Do it because you want to have fun.</blockquote>
