Myths of the Realm Rewritten

[Midareyukki]

I'm not interested in the "why" to be honest. Like the dude, don't like him. Agree or disagree. It's irrelevant to me. I'm just making note of what I've seen occurring, and not just in this particular thread.

You too are contributing to it right now. Focusing this hard on this particular conversation than contributing to the thread as it sounds like you intend?

Honestly...

Last message and then I'm done with this discussion. People are tired cause there is no debate to be had. He wants an echo chamber and that's it. So if there isn't going to be a discussion...they will turn it into something else. I don't blame them.

They also have fun with it. They know he won't change and so they know exactly what is going on just by seeing the name. OP has a playbook...so does the rest.

Think of Gambits on FFXIV

1. OP makes a post complaining

2. Few echo chamber

3. The rest are sick of it so they change it.

Rinse and repeat. There is no step 2 or 3 without step 1.

You want a change? Alter step 1. Force a new gambit.

it's this, Absimiliard. People can't have a conversation with people who are so reductive, inflexible and restricted in their views. One thing would be if they'd keep it to themselves in specific threads and so on and so forth. But the fact that he does this so often feels intentional. People have given him an answer months ago. He could have changed, but didn't. And after a while, people just stop caring overall. You'll see people derail, you'll see people turn it into a lighthearted foolish thread. And I'm sorry but I'm sure plenty of the people who do so are doing it end up finding the derail far more pleasant and sometimes even more constructive than answering OP directly.

There's no grand cabal against him. No coordinated movement.

Just a collective sigh from people who read his threads and have become tired of the same-old same-old time and time again and know there will be no discussion if they take it at all seriously.

I agree with Awesome, in a way: just ignore him. He's not worth engaging with, and derailing the threads is just not going to work. It won't change his mind, it won't change his opinions, it won't change his attitude, and it certainly won't change people's outlook toward him.
