Before someone calls me a hypocrite, I know I haven't been innocent in this. I'm not trying to pretend like I'm high and mighty and holier-than-thou because I've gotten caught in up in forum bullstuff before. I hate that I've been a part of it. I'm trying to be better but it's hard not to get caught up in stuff like that. --- Quote from: Masterlegodude on December 15, 2017, 03:33:49 PM ---Wasn't there also a time when Outland Predator tried to slit his wrist, but it didn't kill him and he was hospitalized for a while? I think it was posted about in one of the discussion topics --- End quote --- yeah and a bunch of people called him an attention whore |

INH and Nix or even Outland definitely didn't deserve as much stuff as they get, and there's a stuffty self-fulfilling prophecy where all the vitriol they receive actively makes them act out more. Maybe not them specifically, but you can't deny the strange cycle of the drama-ee kid getting themselves banned because they acted out after pages upon pages of insults and personal attacks, and then everyone joins in hand to kick them while they're down. Don't get me wrong, the act that gets them banned isn't justifiable, it's just that it's hard to pin the blame entirely on the impressionable weird kid. In Sephiroth's case however, I just don't know. Maybe some form of positive feedback loop would have meant the shooting wouldn't have happened, but the guy was deranged. I can't tell you what would have helped him. |

I guess it's a part of getting older to learn that other people have sensitivities and that people are people. While some people don't respect these boundaries, it's still a trait that most learn as we mature. (assuming you're talking about the harassment towards others and insensitivities) --- Quote from: IkeTheGeneric on December 15, 2017, 03:34:16 PM ---In Sephiroth's case however, I just don't know.

You do have a good case on the association with a bad crowd angle, but it gets to a point where there's gotta be something already wrong there in order to reach the conclusions about the world like he did. |
