my sig i think says it all for me, but just curious ...... (this is an actual question and not a stab)

Don't you find though that hearing people actually respond in the manner in which they would actually respond gives you the most accurate and all around knowledge on a given subject?

for instance if a topic was brought up in a room of people and you got nothing but negative childish and asinine responses to the topic it may tell you very important things about the room of people and the topic

1. The topic was worth responding too in most peoples opinion in the room, that might tell you that its a topic that even its naysayers deemed worth talking about.

2. The results of the topic drew a mostly negative response from the room, This may tell you that the largest portion of your group found more things negative about the topic rather than positive.

3. you may actually be standing in a room of children and teens while talking about famous poets and philosophers in history (hence the negative response) or in other words the topic may be so polar opposite to the group it was presented too that there may have been no other likely response.

I guess my point is I find that censuring my self from anything that exists in the world I.E. opinions, jokes, movies E.T.C. doesn't make them not exist, but instead it deprives me of the chance to really figure out why people say and act the way they do. And then still make my own judgements using all of the input available to me

I an not a religious person at all and have no belief in a god and such but some of my best friends are the most religious people you would ever meet.

I am just fascinated as to how they could believe in such nonsense (my opinion) and I love to sit and listen to even the most ridiculous things that come out of there mouths to try and figure out how they tic.

plus at any given moment it allows what they say to either bolster my own personal belief or to find unexpected logic in it and change my own view.


just curious as to what you thought

Cheers.

I have a dream; that one day Nearmiss or any other mod will create a misc forum where they put all the...
- Please luthier, a small friday update about progress?
- Waste of money
- Quit complaining.....now
- Ignoring Threads
- Sigh.........
- Devs - No more support?
- Luthier, July 19th Patch

...and such threads.

That way I can have direct shortcuts to the other forums that talk about interesting aspects of this game.

Hello Venge. I thought the main page was the misc forum, with the special sub-forums at the top of the page.

Bryan, I totally agree. I only asked if it was possible for me on my own PC to edit what to read. I'm interested in peoples opinions and love a joke. I also find a lot of the advice very helpful. What I dislike is the same people saying the same thing over and over, insulting other peoples intelligence race or ability. The biggest thing at the moment is harping on about bugs. Sure report a problem then be patent. It will be fixed. Maybe having a page just for complaints will clear the forum back to a more friendly and helpful place.

Yo do realize that whatever is posted here WILL get a negative spin on it at some point down the thread and that will turn into a normal thread that we see daily here...its called a forum and that's what happens especially when the forum is related to dare i say it 'a broken game'..and it is that, how you take the word 'broken' is up to you.

you wont get alot of posters saying how great this game is though you get some because they are generaly content and will only read for the most part the threads that are helpfull, you have to realize that this forum is the ONLY place people who are angry,upset, confused, have a question,need tech help can go so this is why you see such negative posts and threads here..for everyone that posts here unhappy there is another that is happy and content

you can possibly edit posts that go the way you dont want them too or stopdelete threads that you see to be unfit..if you do your miss alot of other info regarding said topics buried in them threads which 'could' be helpfull to you..

How many times have you read a thread that has no interest to you to start of with or generally but someone down the list you find out some useful info, ive done it countless times..

for that reason i never post something like 'here we go again', 'not another one' etc etc cuz i guarantee il take something away from it or have a laugh and probably even add to it..

the whole 'troll' thing... dont really get that, cuz it generally comes from that exact type of person whom have made the word up :\

Just looked it up in the OED, apparently apart from the scandinavian mythical creature, it's also a 'form of fishing by dragging bait along in the water'.

Now I never knew that!
