_Converge has made one jokey post, which was more than a week ago, whereas I made a post with content 2 days ago, so I'm guessing your problem with me is not primarily a lack of posting, but that you didn't like me criticising your posts.John wrote:BTW, Ripley still hasn't posted again. I can't make an accurate analysis if people are lurking/not posting. I can't judge them, and it really holds up the game, even more than my spam posts.
I didn't tell you to stop. I didn't even ask you to stop. It's entirely up to you how you react. I don't really understand why you would get so angry; as far as I can tell you're particularly put out because I hadn't posted much myself. But your own posts were a large part of why I wasn't posting. It all gets a bit circular.John wrote:Maybe I overreacted to being told I was spam posting, but when someone comes in who hasn't really posted at all, and tells me to stop, it angers me, and I hope you see why.
Anger is not helpful in finding scum. When you start attacking a person because you're angry with them, you want them to be scum so much that you can't view them logically. It clouds your judgement. Your OMGUS vote on me sounded like pure anger, and that's almost never a good reason.
