Then when someone gets fed up and is a bit snippy in response, those same people will rush to declare that the snippy statement is one of the worst things ever posted on the forum.

Thankfully more and more posters are becoming aware of such tactics, particularly since they're commonly applied across society in general in the current era.

Oh it's pretty similar? Tell me what happens when you are not happy with a game's development, still stay subbed hoping it gets better and get made fun of by random forumites. Pretty sure you're not at risk of death.

Similar in intent is what they are getting at, I believe, not outcome. Look at the implied reason for the action rather than the result thereof.

Please point to me when I have last told someone to take a break in response to them posting critisicm of the game.

That’s why other people here accused of the point going right over your head.

You said I should admit that telling people to quit when they want change is in poor taste. That's only something for me to admit if I do it or defend it. If you think this is derailing then why are you all hopping onto it like white knights defending the poster I called out.
