[QUOTE="Rechan, post: 3959303, member: 54846"] I didn't say he couldn't. The source of my question is "Why [i]drag on[/i] letting everyone know you're not going?" If it was about connecting with people of like minded, hey, that's easy - there's threads like "Not going to 4e". If it's "To voice your opinion", sure. Several people have . But that doesn't explain why they do it at every opportunity in every thread they come to. The 'I decided three months ago to not go with 4e, and yet I'm still here...' is IMHO, silly. It comes off as saying "That's it, I'm out of this party. I'm leaving. I am gone. See me leaving? I'm walking to the door. I'm moving towards the door. You guys are going to miss me. I am so gone. Later everybody. See you. Bye. Here, I'm AT THE DOOR. Totally going to leave. Don't want to stay here anymore. Can you guys see me? Because here I am, my hand on the doorknob. I'm totally turning it. Going to leave here in just a second. Yep, outta here." So you don't think that people should act on their opinions? If I hate pickles, yet I continue to stay in the room for pickle eaters and, continue to eat pickles, and continue to [i]complain[/i] about pickle-eating, eventually someone is going to turn to me and say "Well if you hate them WHY ARE YOU EATING THEM?" After a while, it comes off as either the individual being masochistic, or just liking to complain. The person with the opinion has the right to say it - and the next person has the right to express their opinion of what the first person said. I'm not questioning the right to say it. I'm questioning why they continue to remain to say it long after the decision has been made. [/QUOTE]
