Re: y'all need some barney and friends in your lives

Oof tbh most of my interactions with new players are in MP, I'd have a hard time remembering the usernames sorry. Also, reason why you might see such a pattern is because when newbs get trashed it grabs attention, otherwise it's usually "hi, welcome" and other small talk for questions. When a new person comes here like they own the place, it gets quite annoying. QueenAshy posted in every Osu!mania thread she could find and her content was far from intellectual to say the least. While this may not be a problem to you, which is totally ok, it is one to me. Look, she was just told to not abuse to new thread button, and then she kept at it saying it's on other subforums so it's ok. That kind of behavior is just silly; asking a mod "does it apply to all the forum" would've been a way to do it, you know.

Yeah okay that's fair. I agree that QueenAshy was doing and saying some things that are meh, and it totally makes sense that you're annoyed. I still think there's nicer ways to tell QueenAshy to quit it, though. Some people were doing that, and you were nice to QueenAshy at first yourself, but some people are just plain mean.

An issue I have with the "be nice to new players" mentality is that it can be largely hypocritical at times.

See:

You should attain more gameplay experience before attempting to map

I think it's fair to say they've earned criticism and it's fair for people to dislike them at this point, and its unreasonable to always expect kindness when it's not reciprocated in an even manner.

I apologized to her on her profile for my choice of words in some of my replies. If you were new to a place, and a few old members got mad at you, wouldn't you do your best to try and rectify the situation instead of basically doing nothing ?

EDIT: The post Celery quoted got me too. It's just terrible.

Yeah that most recent post of hers wasn't the best, but I think that can be read in a way that's not mean (?). Apparently those two friended each other or something.

unnecessarily?

im sorry what

If I were in QueenAshy's shoes, yeah, I would. I'm not saying she didn't do anything wrong.

I heard that between January and December; the magic words are "please" and "thank you".

I believe this may help my life at some point.

Thanks Barney for giving me the opportunity to become a better person.

I think people should post more so they get a better feel of how others around them also post and slowly try to push the conversation in a meaningful way.

At same time, attempting to assign expectations to others has never really been helpful unless both sides have the same intention.

At best, you get lucky and create a topic where many people care about the outcome because it's either controversial or legitimately interesting.

So, really, I don't see the problem with watching new threads happen. It gives something to talk about and honestly; that's good enough by itself.

You may think we need only A+ God Tier quality threads, but the truth is that it doesn't really matter. You can take a terrible thread and turn it into a legendary one depending on how you approach it.

You just have to find the right way to do so.

I'm sure you'll read THIS though ;D

Sick White Wall Part 2 and T6 hunt. Just keep the anime north cancer roadtrip music in mind for this. Maybe it's not the best, but it was something different.

Gotta take the opportunities when you can.

Yes, I know, I didn't respond to your quote, but it's because I didn't read it. I've seen the words, but I did not imprint them in my memory.

What do you mean ?

Re: y'all need some barney and friends in your lives

What do you mean ?

I should have said time, but I guess if you saturate your mind with reading a ton of random facebook stuff, watching anime/movies/etc. you eventually reach a point where you need to take a break and reevaluate what you should care about.

I mostly only care about posting here if I feel like it may contribute in some way, but that's because I want to value time and yet I don't have the commitment to go a few levels deeper.

So, I usually end up making "mid level" posts that could need just a bit more development.

Makes me wonder about asking others "why" and "how" they post the way they do.

I'm sorry my post was just b8 to make sure you'd read it so I made it short and seemingly serious.

However, I get what you mean and I agree
