Ugh, I hate to indulge a comment as excessively melodramatic as yours, but I feel I cannot allow your dreadful mischaracterisation of what I said to stand.
I was not "baiting" EpicLulz on his question. I mean, seriously, ayase, how ridiculous a claim is that? I asked a geneal question because I wanted a discussion to form and I wanted to hear about the issue from the OP's perspective. Of course I know the semantics of a nervous breakdown, and if I didn't, am I not perfectly capable of using Wikipedia myself?
For me that's the straw that broke the camel's back. I've had enough of you. I know at least two others on this forum who feel the same way, and I suspect there are many more who avoid any thread you touch. And I'm not surprised.[/quote]
I don't see why this is constantly brought up whenever anyone decides to argue with me. I don't care who does, and does not, like me on AUKN. I am not here to be liked; does this make sense yet?
I may have stifled this thread (though you'll notice I did make a short post about my own experience with the subject - all I care to say really, I don't particularly enjoy discussing my mental state, and if you make any comment about this you'll prove conclusively you're not worth anyone's time) but I take comfort in the fact that at least my presence isn't stifling an entire forum.
You're trying to make out like I insulted your history of mental illness even though I didn't even know you had such a history until you attacked me in your post for apparently making a bad comment on it. Sheesh. It's not like there was need of any more proof of how grossly over dramatic you are, but this proves it absolutely.
Learn some respect for others and their opinions, CG, and maybe we can talk again someday.
If you've thought me anything, it's that not everyone is deserving of automatic, unquestioned respect.
Rui said:CG, please keep any problems you have with ayase to PMs - for those of us who don't follow every single flamewar on here it's just confusing to have threads derailed all the time like this. I don't think posting a wikipedia link is particularly singlehandedly stifling a discussion. Being rude seemingly out of nowhere looks bad, and what was said was rude.
It seemed like it was intended to be a rude gesture. I can, of course, use Wikipedia myself, so posting a link to it in order to essentially say "d'uh" did seem like a dig, and did seem likely to stifle any discussion on the matter. Or at least, that's what I took from it. If ayase didn't intend it that way, fair enough, but that's certainly how it looked.
