The lack of self-awareness is flowing freely today, it seems.

I'm self-aware and can also read. Negativity vastly outweighs positivity here, so care to explain who I am not self-aware?

The victimization part probably. Aren't you one of those who cries "you can't even be positive about the game here" while also countering everything with: "you are in the minohritey!" Well guess what: if YOU are in the Mah-Joh-Ra-Tey than YOU are not the "little victim" or whatever you think you are

What are you talking about? I never said people I disagree with are the minority. The complaining here is the majority of posters. I've been pretty consistent with this point of view.

There is also a distinction between a being a majority here on the forums (complaining and complaining sympathizers who swarm the few people enjoying the game) and the general playerbase not part of these forums.

Quite simple. You have made repeated inferences that this has in fact always been the case, that critics present themselves as victims, etc. Yet, if you look back at the history of these forums, you will rather quickly realize it is only fairly recently the proverbial tide began to turn. Some posters do still go out of their way to ridicule those whose opinions do not align with their own, but the number engaging in that behavior does seem to have decreased. This is something you dismiss as well, instead behaving as if there is some completely one-sided attack on people that are enjoying the game, despite the vast majority of people bringing forward criticisms doing so in a thoughtful, constructive, inoffensive, and well-mannered way.

I'm sorry, but this has nothing to do with your attempt to insult me, which is "self-awareness". You can claim I am not aware of the history of these forums outside the times I'm here, which is true. But that has nothing to do with self-awareness. I also disagree that negativity being widespread is only "fairly recent" unless you consider years of this to be "fairly recent." Also...simply LOL at the majority of people being thoughtful and well-mannered in how they interact here. If you are vocal about enjoying this game, the number of people who ridicule and insult has not decreased whatsoever. I'm insulted every day I post here.

Speaking of actual self-awareness, was it not you who just compalined in the positive thread about being insulted, when that's what you do here? Now THAT is a lack of self-awareness.

It in fact does. You make frequent statements to the effect of "we can't be positive here because we get attacked" while going out of your way to attack and belittle people for bringing forth criticisms. That does speak of a lack of self-awareness. You do the very things you continually accuse others of, which is precisely why I outlined those things.

As I see it, that was a statement of fact. If you choose to take it as an insult, that is your prerogative.

I don't go out of my way to attack or belittle people. Most of my post history is actually polite until I'm attacked first. Which always happens because some people here just simply can't handle people enjoying the game or any disagreement.

I see what I say as statements of fact. If you choose to take it as an insult, that's your prerogative.

Actually not really, as I know what an opinion is versus a fact...something you don't seem to know the difference between. But since you find insulting opinions to be "facts" - going on my block list too. Not the type of person I will engage with further now that you revealed that this is how you think.

EDIT: For Kickwars, who I blocked, but I saw him being quoted - I actually celebrated my 17 year anniversary last month with a glorious trip abroad. Yes I paid for this with the money I made from my business. Thanks for remembering! I'm glad I made such an impact on you that you recall this about me from a one-off comment months ago. I feel quite adored and appreciated from all the attention you want to give me!

HERE. Notice how *I* didn't say "ON THE FORUMS" or something like that.

SUCCESSFUL MULTIMILLION DOLLAR BUSINESS OWNER IN A 16 YEAR MARRIAGE KNOWS WHAT IS OPINION AND WHAT IS FACT. MORE AT 5

I thought you were done here?

How DARE you mock a successful BUSINESS OWNER with SOCIAL SKILLS who has totally NEVER countered others with "you're in the minority!!"

Weird. I am the business owner of a multimillion dollar small business that relies on social skills. I’ve been married for 16 years and am active in my local community.

I think you'd alienate far more people in the MMO genre then the extremely bizarre minority that "needs" this to play the game and isn't willing to mod quietly.

No, at the end of the day they [streamers] are still just the barometer of their own opinions.

Yes, 4 people thinking their “hot take” on a topic that’s already at the top of the forum needs it’s very own thread is nothing new here.
