I thought it was a brilliant way to get people socializing in here, and there were certainly laughs a plenty as people showed off their silliness. It's definitely on one of the reasons I started engaging in the forums in general. I realized there were fun people who cared about the game, and they had some wild and crazy ideas about how to improve it.
~time passed~
Like anything great, it soured over time. People started using these threads to bash their enemies with passive aggressive baiting, which then turned into all out assaults, warnings, and bans. The Ninjas grew weary of it, and judgement was passed - saying Hello is not a Discussion thread and they banned them to irrelevance in the General Discussions where only the odd ducks (my family <3) of the forums hung out.
I miss the days where people would simply be nice and have fun in here, and the hair pulling was few and far between. *sigh* Now people need rhino skin to tolerate the all too frequent nonsense. I'd report it all, but it wears on me to be the nanny. So I try to ignore it now and just share my opinions where I see fit. But I do feel bad for the new mods having to clean up poo every day. It definitely is what it is.

How have you written so much for a thread about nothing?

How have you responded to so many threads given you don't even play the game anymore?
I've left you alone to your ways, but that ends when you start poking at me. I poke back. Hard. You can get away with trolling everyone else, but I'll pin you to the wall with your own words. Fair warning.
Good day.
