• Cool Off

    From Netsurge@77:77/5 to All on Sun Mar 29 00:34:10 2020
    I think it is time we all take a step back and cool off for a bit.

    I stand by my post with regards to dickwads posting death threats to
    the author of Mystic because he decided to stop participating in a
    message network. He is a grown ass man who can choose to do as he
    wishes and at no time should someone receives abusive emails and death threats. PERIOD.

    Unfortunately this hobby has always and will always be littered with
    trolls and troublemakers. They are everywhere and will continue to be
    there.

    Disagreements are alway encouraged, as long as they are done respectfully.

    Let's all try to be civil. Go and watch this hilarious review of the
    Diskshop, it will make your day:

    I'm cool. I guess this is directed at me?

    Yeah, that's right, but I debate he's a grown ass man. He's a child who
    flings his toys whenever he doesn't get his way or someone disagrees
    with him. I don't give a damn if he's on fsxnet or not (actually I do,
    I'm kind of glad he's gone.) It's not cool to be abusive, but then what
    does gOOrOO turn around and do? He blames Paul for inciting this, which
    would be absolutely laughable except that it's actually quiet nasty.

    Maybe I'm not so cool. This behavior from your friend has been going on
    for years. I don't get angry very often, but yeah I am a little bit
    angry now. This isn't so much about him leaving FSXnet (really who
    cares) but about his behavior. And while death threats and abuse is not
    cool, to a point it's you reap what you sow. You act like a dick you get treated like a dick. Not everyone has mystic shaped stars in there eyes
    and can see what is what.

    Unfortunately this hobby has always and will always be littered
    with trolls and troublemakers. They are everywhere and will
    continue to be there.

    Yep, and I think fsxnet just lost a big one.

    Let's all try to be civil.

    Lets, however, I am going to call shit as I see it. I've had quiet
    enough of ignoring it and hoping it goes away. Besides, I dare say
    friends who don't call out shit as they see it aren't doing anyone any
    favors.

    It wasn't directed at you. It was me standing on a soap box yelling at the room.

    Maybe it's my guilty conscience then. I really don't like being angry.

    You say this and then...

    You got right into this stuff.

    The only thing you guys are doing by showing up here and behaving like this
    is proving to everyone exactly who you are, and exactly why I left. Combined with death threats, your true colors and lack of awareness are shining
    through.

    angry now. This isn't so much about him leaving FSXnet (really who
    cares) but about his behavior. And while death threats and abuse is not cool, to a point it's you reap what you sow. You act like a dick you get

    "And while death threats are not cool, its okay in this case" is basically
    what you're saying.

    Spoken like a true person who sends anonymous death threats!

    This video made my day. The other ones on the channel are pretty good, too.

    Whoever he is, and I have my suspicions, his reviews are awesome. It even identified a few typos I needed to fix.
