Fandom Gruff ┬─┬ノ( º _ ºノ) UNFLIPPED THREAD

Generally self important...

Oh the irony.

Tesbull is right, this has moved into bullying territory. None of you is so quick to lecture more senior members of the forum on how they should or shouldn't conduct themselves, but Tesbull is a soft target so everyone dogpiles him. If you think savaging a 14-year-old is a good use of your time you need to grow the fuck up yourselves. I can assure you that publishing his PMs on the forum and then taking turns humiliating him about it doesn't make him look like an immature cunt.

If he's so annoying you can add him to your Ignore list. God forbid you do the "mature" thing and just take his posts with a pinch of salt and move on.

And for the record, every one of you has swore repeatedly on this forum, so you can all climb down off your high horse about that shit, too.

Have some friggin' empathy.

One, pet hate, that isn't irony, that's hypocrisy in what I'd assume to be the context.

And I've never even cared about Tesbull before now, so saying "Oh you're just choosing him because he's a soft target" is bullshit. If you were even half knowledgeable about me or these forums, you know I have argued with tons of people, without giving a shit whether they're a soft or hard target. And if it's bullying by posting PMs that were sent to -me-, and not to try and end a confrontation but to just vent at me, then your idea of bullying is fucked up and naive. I've recieved PM's by people who were trying to rectify the situation, I never would publish those, because those are in hope of ending a conflict. I've been PMed hate, I don't publish that because all that says is that the person hating me can't find fault with my arguments and instead turns to my person. If posting PM's (And remember, private messages are private only so far as both want to keep it private.) of someone venting at me through an alternate channel because it didn't put them in a good light before is classed as bullying, then fuck me, most of the world is bullies. And as much of a cynic as I am, I don't find that remotely possible, other than the fact some people are just too sensitive.

It was one day of arguing anyway, hardly me picking on him whilst bullying is defined as to use superior strength or influence to intimidate (someone), typically to force them to do something.
I have made no attempts to intimidate him, or to force him to do anything other than hope that he realizes, and he seems to have, that acting pompous, and generally childish, isn't going to help his claims of being mature. Taking turns humiliating him?
It's hardly fucking humiliating him. If you think that his posts are that bad that it's humiliating him, then you're basically agreeing with me and saying that there's a problem with the way he approaches things, that I imagine you would want to fix.

And hell, I'd have liked to have done it quietly, but as you can see FROM that picture, he dismissed everything I said.
Yet you have the gall to try and dress yourself up as the white knight of this situation. You make out that Tesbull has done now wrong, and that every solution in life is to just ignore someone and move on because that will fix everything, right?
If you honestly think that, you're an idiot.
You don't just naturally become mature, you don't just change your personality as you grow for no reason.
Your personality changes because of your interactions with others, your life experiences. Why do you think the rich kids are always stuck up, entitled brats? Because nobody said to them otherwise. You might be content with that but I'm not.

In reality, you're just being a white knight, Paddy, attempting to get an applause by standing up for the innocent child. That's being more of an immature cunt, as you called it, than me confronting someone about their bullshit.
Stop trying to fucking be a hero, sit down, and resume whatever it was you were doing before. You're no fucking good as a hero because heroes should only help those in need, the innocent.
Nobody is innocent in this situation, so take off the bloody cape.

Or.. You could just have realized that you were sort of a cunt for no particular reason other than getting slightly annoyed at Tesbull. Then smudging it in his face, despite him explicitly saying that he doesn't want to fight anymore. You were the one pushing an agenda here, you were the one starting a fight, not Tesbull, he shared a bit of personal insight and you picked up on it and got offensive.

Also, cut the white knight crap.
