"Ignore" really means it

[Auntie Climax]

I got the feeling he didn't give a rats ass that I was being bullied. It was also unnecessary to call me an asshole just now.

Oh little child, where is this bullying you see, go on then, tell Auntie? Auntie knows a thing or two about dealing with trolls, you know.

You want this forum to be your therapy peer group. Guess what? This is not going to happen. You do need help? That's fine because realizing that you need help is an important step, so start looking for it in your real life.

Aside that you are wielding victimhood as a weapon like Donald Trump does, which as a strategy for sure doesn't make you much likeable, nor a serious partner for discussions, because every time you are going to feel harshly treated, you'll just hide behind it.

Most of your behaviour fits quite well with this archetype of the flame warriors, which is sad:

Fragile Femme is very needy and insecure and regards the discussion forum as her personal support group, and will lash out when her feelings are not “validated” by the others. Fragile Femme will often refer to the forum participants as her “family” and becomes distraught at disharmony of any kind. She regards even minor disagreements with her as devastating personal assaults and will often dissolve into hysteria when confronted. Her hyperactive sense of injury renders her fighting tactics fairly ineffective, but Innocence Abused, Cyber Sisters or Weenie will often spring to her defense.

Get a grip on yourself.

When you think EVERYONE ELSE are the assholes it's time for introspection.

Cristiano isn't the babysitting kind of admin that you'd prefer. He's the kind of admin that does all the "under the hood" work that keeps everything functional, so he gets annoyed when people can't sort things out for themselves and have a go at him for not wanting to referee this madhouse.

Here's an explanation of why I acted the way I did and why I need an ignore/ block feature.

There is a block/ignore feature. Left click on someone's name under their avatar and hit ignore.

Sorry you have issues, but try to have some sort of self-awareness about them. If you start to feel "triggered" it's time to log out and go for a walk or something. And you might get some sympathy but don't expect to be mollycoddled, a *lot* of the other posters here have their various issues, including me, but (usually) manage not to go from Zero to Butthurt in under 20 seconds.

Oh, and what's all this doing in MY squirrel thread, can't you people respect topics without derailing?

I aspire to this one:

Big Cat would rather not fight…he enjoys peacefully observing forum conversations and laconically participates when the moods strikes. He playfully chases interesting threads, and from time to time uses a Newbie or Propeller Head as a convenient scratching post. He enjoys being stroked or petted, and tends to purr loudly.

CAUTION: Don’t be fooled by his fuzzy, playful exterior. When provoked, Big Cat reacts with lightning speed and almost always lands on his feet after an attack. Big Cat often indulges himself by toying with his victim before delivering his lethal blows.

I have plenty of self awareness but it seems this troll site doesn't.

More whinging about how simply godawful this forum is.

I note the lack of squirrel in your post.

And yet you're still here, even after a flounce away.

Admit it....

 

[Casey Pelous]

I have plenty of self awareness ...

No, no. Goodness, no. "Self awareness" does not equal "I'm only aware of myself." They're different.

 

[Clara D.]

No, no. Goodness, no. "Self awareness" does not equal "I'm only aware of myself." They're different.

Perhaps a visual aid is needed.

CC Approves +10 for mentioning the Flame Warriors. Though that version is missing a few.

Rubbish, you have no power here. Now, begone:

Hmm...seems I missed out on some ongoing saga. I saw a phone thread a few days back in which the info was sparse. I assume that is the one being referenced? Soen stated that he was the one who recommended us, so in light of that (as I respect Soen) I had nothing to add in the vein of (why do you not give us more info), however, upon seeing later threads and this flouncety-flounce gone wrong, Imma add my own two cents. Why not?

It's easy to get off on the wrong foot in a forum. It's been explained ad nauseum how this occurred in this case. To give the strong benefit of doubt, I'll say that the person was overly eager to make their presence known, introduce themselves with some fluffy fluff type threads.

The problem here lies more in the reaction to people either a)asking for more information or b) wondering why so many were being created simultaneously or in duplicate. The reaction to people's normal, read, not trolling, responses has been less than desirable and indicates a rather thin skin. Known for having one of those myself, even I must say, "C'mon now, take some responsibility". Don't push it off on PTSD or trolls messing with you. Nothing that has been said to you rises to that level. I know whereof I speak. These folks are not trolls, believe me. We've had a few and we know how to deal with that. You were out of line in writing what you did on Cristiano's page and you are out of line again caling this a troll site. If that is how you truly feel, then why do you keep coming back for more?

Choose to either leave or own up to making some mistakes and suck it up. People here are quite forgiving of a whole lot of social indiscretions, but they are not forgiving of a victim complex in which one doesn't own up to their own part in a conflict,, especially one which chooses to blame everyone else.

Make a decision.

I not only didn't give a rat's ass, I didn't give a flying fuck because you were not being bullied in the slightest (and to claim to be a victim of bullying is an insult to people who suffer actual bullying, you entitled snowflake). I was extremely patient with you even after you contacted me directly to complain more. At this point stay, go, I seriously do not care, but kindly shut the fuck up about how awful we supposedly are and that we are all trolls who hurt your precious feelings.

If you continue to attack people here you will see what actual flaming looks like and will be burnt to the ground. People have explained ad nauseam now why your debut in this forum was not well received, but you choose to not listen to any of it and just play the victim. My tolerance threshold for that is nil.
