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

Just because you converted one way, doesn't mean it was to something better. In real life there are converts both ways between political parties and religions. And it feels like the most strident defenders are often the converts.

Did I catch it correctly: "blah blah blah <your 40 years of gaming experience are swept aside by my better spent 40 years - because if they weren't you'd understand why this thing I'm talking about is a very, very, very important distinction> blah blah blah." ?

There is nothing like the zeal of the newly converted.

A newly converted person is changing their self-identity. If you didn't feel strongly about it, you wouldn't do it. And, as it is new, it needs a lot of reinforcement.

Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.

I know, I have played the game, though the hostile 'tudes make me really want to disengage.

I see that I cannot even say that I was going to say something. Maybe we should just stick to gaming then. Did not make me feel better though, but maybe good thread for others.

Maybe we need another thread to say we were going to say something in this thread.... erm this could snowball.

I have often regretted the things that I have posted.

I have never regretted the things I have not.

Really you've never regretted not saying something? Lucky you.

I imagine anxiety, fear of rejection, how something might be taken or just not having the right words at the right time, mean lots of people regretted thing that were not said.
