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

[Ryujin]

Everything, O Parmandur, is burning.

The threads are burning, all the comments are burning, your thoughts are burning. They are burning with the fire of the reply. There is anger, and there is ignorance, there is hatred, and as long as the fire finds flammable comments of others upon which it can feed, so long will it burn, and there will be birth of new threads and the death of thread locks, decay of topics, griefers, lamentations, suffering, despair, and ragequits.

You must divest yourself of passion and become free of the need to comment and to explain to people why they are wrong. Only then will you be delivered from the tyranny of the reply and attain the blessed state of Nirvana.

Otherwise, you are doomed to return again and again. Remember- all new commenters are just old commenters reborn. Such is the eternal wheel.

We are all mere warriors of the flame.

Also I'm certain that some folks around here must type at 500 WPM. Or they're bots.

Not me. I'm 3 AIs in an overcoat.

I have a terrible habit of going back and editing my posts long after people have read them. I sure wish my ADHD brain would get all the words out at once, and in the correct order, the first time around.

I relate to this so much it hurts. I have both ADHD and Autism, so I have a hard time explaining what I want to say, and I have a hard time doing it in a way that is coherent and together.

I always feel the need to edit my posts to make them say what I wanted to say better than I wrote it the first time, but I avoid doing it that often for things besides small typos and wording choices because otherwise it would feel like I'm changing my viewpoint and purposefully deceiving/confusing people about what I was saying (or trying to say), even if I'm just trying to clarify my position.

It's hard to balance trying to properly communicate with others and saying what I wanted to say and having to damage-control how much I edit my posts to avoid looking like I'm posting in bad-faith. And it sucks to know that it's often not other people's fault for miscommunications between me and them, it's just almost impossible for me to say exactly what I want to say the first time I say it.

Ugh, even this post about how hard it is to post what I want to say is coming out wrong. If I had more time, I would have written a smaller post.

A look at the preview of this product leads me to believe it will be filled with stereotypes and fanservice (despite the pastors endorsing it) and not historically-interesting character options and perspectives.

I didn't want to post that in the thread because I don't think anybody cared to hear that. That said, this is a thread for dumping exactly those thoughts, right...

Sounds like Theros.
(but without the pastor endorsements)

There are a few posters on this site (one in particular that I have in mind) that post huge paragraphs of text, with no breaks or emphases in them (like how people bolden or italicize certain parts their posts to express the most important/key parts of it).

I don't want to be rude and call them out, but it's very hard for my ADHD brain to concentrate on reading those posts. My brain just automatically disengages and refuses to try and read long, meandering, monotonous posts like that.

Sometimes it's just easy to avoid posts/threads with a lot of that style of post, but when people are responding directly to me in that style (especially in my own threads), it's especially frustrating. It's not really anyone's fault, but my brain just can't easily engage with posts like that.

You could be right about that... I saw the comments about the Spartans. Didn't bother to look at the KS myself, but it's definitely one of those projects that's just not going to be able to please anyone in the end.

Aw jeez... What did NuTSR do this time??

Wait wut?

 

[Mad_Jack]

Well, there are a few things that can't be blamed on nuTSR - global warming, Kanye West, condiments as pizza toppings, etc... Admittedly, not many but still... lol.

You know.... Has anyone ever actually seen Kanye West and Justin LaNasa in the same place, at the same time?
