Subject: why are member so mean?

Oh hey there

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

Yeah OP, why are members so mean?

Read this thread all the way up to here then laughed out loud. I think you should be able to answer your own question OP.

In memory of those fallen in the defense of Earth and her colonies.

Blame it on the Bungie.

When he was younger, he was the one who always had the jokes and riddles that would keep the spirits of the Spartans high. Over the years however, his lifetime of combat had hardened him, as it had all of the Spartans. Within Will, John thought, something special had been lost.

Oh GAWD.
I have to stop taking any threads these days seriously. Half of the time it's in jest. The other half of the time... the sheer amount of irony incarnate in people is astounding.

  • 12.01.2011 10:03 PM PDT

The tide is turning, brothers! Let us take our kingdom back!

Oh, irony... you so delicious.

Remember Elk

I try to be as helpful as I can, however if the question is inthe wrong forum I will direct them to the right forum without answering their question despite knowing the answer.
If I come out as a jerk in discussions then I'm either venting some of my passive agressivness or have a strong opinion on the subject being discussed and may believe that the other person is a bit slow in the head. (However i will not openly insult someone unless it is as a joke and I know that the person will take it well)

However I have noticed that there are certain individuals in the forums who do not even make an attempt at being nice or helpful, but b.net is not alone with this problem so really there is no need to pay attention to this group of individuals.

I lol'd at the absurd miscommunication that occurs whenever dibbs post something. Perhaps his brain is so highly evolved that he can no longer clearly communicate with lesser life forms, even among his own species.

So as long as people aren't asking a question it's O.K. to be mean. Gotcha.

Anyway, as expected, you're offering a justification for why you behaved in that manner. Why, then, can't you apply that a little further and believe that perhaps the people being "mean" to you had justified their behavior in much the same way you're doing (not saying it's right but it is understandable)?

I certainly haven't been the nicest person here, but then again I didn't make a thread asserting how morally superior I am to everyone else. When I'm a dick I at least try to the best of my ability to make sure it's warranted (which is more then I can say for most people). I have no tolerance for hypocrisy or willful ignorance and I will call out anyone I see engaging in that behavior. It is irrelevant to me whether or not it is my right, duty, or obligation to do so.

yeah i was a dick. I don't think I'm better then you guys. My behavior was immature but so were the topics. One of them was that The Maw was difficult and he couldn't get past it. It's common gaming sense to try a new tactic when things are not working so ill admit i was a dick. But so is everyone else who is saying mean things. i simply wanted to understand why people are mean when it's one of the first posts or when the question hasn't been answered yet.

If you can read this, you are looking at my signature

I lost faith in Bnet as a serious and respectable forum long time ago. groups aren't much better either.

Members here are mean because they have problems like everyone else, and chose to release frustration on a forum, which happen to be Bungie.net forums. get over it, and stop being mean yourself. that's 1 less bully in the forums.

Self reflection is one of the easiest performed types of examination and study. I think the use of it to answer your own OP should have been used rather than making a thread asking why people are the way they are when you are one of those people.

Consider that your OP is much like a firefighter asking how it is people manage to put out fires or a supreme court justice of 15 years inquiring as to how one manages makes judicial decisions.
