[QUOTE="Gallo22, post: 3061564, member: 11325"] It just amazes me at what "we" get offended over now-a-days. I usually don't spend my time responding to threads like this as it makes me just as guilty, but I see it all the time here on EN World (and elsewhere) and quite frankly it makes me sad. Us gamers are always telling those who put us down or make fun of us that we are better that their perception of us, yet we go on rants about something a trivial as unwanted mail, etc., not to mention jumping to conclusions about who may have sent it to us or what laws they broke. Deleting e-mail or throwing away the advertisement probably took up less time than typing in a thread about it. I really don't understand the level of this "tragedy" when we have more important things to put our efforts into. The real problems and horrors of everyday life that happen around our communities yet we complain and worry about the most mundain things. This email is not directed specifically at the writer of this thread but to all the threads that go on about such similar matters. It's one thing to say you dislike something or some product and post here on EN World, asking the "community" how to fix it or get it changed or suggest that we don't buy it, but it's quite another to go on and on about how you hate this, or that company did not do it right or someone is getting over on you, etc. When the time comes to really complain about something important, it won't matter, because we've watered down the real complains by complaining about the trivial ones. The tone of this post should be taken as soft spoken... :( Gallo22 [/QUOTE]
