You're a brave man for admitting this! I hope others can learn and stop being lame as they are now... but one can only dream of that!
Hats off!
EDIT: Maybe you could do something about the utterly distasteful and I dare say (for our younger viewers) shocking avatar of yours as a start to make things better?
Just refuse to care and everything will be fine. Maybe this sounds a bit rude, but once you refuse to care you don't get pissed off yourself you are less likely to piss off people around you.

Good luck
That's what I do. Works wonders.
I don't think I ever held anything against you, but you'll find it easier to cope with Discovery if it's bothering you if you close every forum section except the RP one and the Community one. Ignore the mod stuff, ignore the rules and bitching up in General Discussion... just enjoy the RP and lulz, and everything will be good.
Quote:I've spent a good portion of my time arguing angrily with almost everyone, and gradually becoming distasteful and disliked. Nothing can be accomplished for someone who is disliked by their peers. Both in the real world, and in the world of gaming, it can be a drag when all you have become is a target.
Sure you can. You buy yourself a gun and make them a target. You fight back, looking to oust the people who wronged you. Im the original hated community pariah, I even have a plaque, I dont see yours =P
Quote:I enjoy the community enough to stick around, thanks to a few good friends, but I get irritated when every time I try to post something that's friendly and intelligent, it just gets dragged down. That's also partially my fault for posting in Flood half of the time.
Its not only flood, its just generally some of the people here, who believe their stuff doesnt stink.
If you dont believe like they do, They'll cast you out.
Just like TEXAS!
Just get used to it, I have.

Seems to be a massive string of apologies coming in these days.
This is certainly a well thought-out one. I approve of the amount of cojones it must've taken to post this, and of the person who posted it.
Also, n00bl3t is right. It's rather de-stressing to get in-game and just drop the forums for a bit. Best accompanied, in my opinion, by some Dream Theater and/or Rush.
Happy Discoing,

PS @Cam: That was, in an interesting way, rather profound. Then again, everything's profound in its own way at 3:30 AM. You still have a cleverly-hidden "FIX CRUISE" in your profile pic though:P
