Seriously, it is shameful and disappointing. And I have the right to condescend to you in this matter, I have earned that right through hard work and fair play.
I await you to do the same.
You don't have the right to condescend to anyone. No one does. If you think you do, you can sod off. I don't care if it's a feedback thread, condescension shouldn't be tolerated as it's inflammatory. I do my best to make sure that we don't break rules, that we're sportsmanlike, and that we don't step on toes.
However, it's hard to get people to be reasonable when you say stuff like the former. IT just pisses people off. My apologies if I get pissed off when you act like I'm worth less than you.
I understand that people in CR mess up. HOWEVER, it's not likely to be a more pleasant experience for you if you act like arrogant whenever you're unhappy with the actions of my friends. In fact, it becomes progressively less likely that my comrades will change if you're condescending. Every action causes an equal and opposite reaction. Saying that you have the RIGHT to condescend to me, to be arrogant, when I myself have done nothing wrong? That kind of holier-than-thou nonsense, no matter how justified, only pisses people off. You don't get stubborn people to change their ways by spitting on them.
I work hard and I play fair. I have multiple characters, successful characters, outside of CR that were more or less built off of my own hard work. You have no right to condescend to me. None.
All I want you to do is to not "condescend" to the feedback thread. Give feedback, and I'll do my best to work with it despite my relative lack of influence in the CR hierarchy. For example, the issue around the 44 hole, I talked to Tabris on Skype along with another CR member and I think that the issue was resolved, at least with him, fairly well.
If you come to the table thinking "I'm better than you. I am condescending to talk to you. You are under me because you're bad people and are hopeless." when giving feedback, then of course it backfires. You'd have to be high on cardamine to think otherwise.
I don't see how you're missing the counter-productivity that is inherent in being a condescending prat. It's preposterous, and you shouldn't be giving feedback if you're going to act like that. I do my best to be reasonable, but again, I don't respond to condescension.
@mwerte and Spazzy, got it, I'll try to work on it with CR. A lot of valid points. Hopefully people will listen. Probably... not. XD
