The Flood / Re: isn't it funny how we warmly applaud ex-addicts for being "clean" for a year« on: November 24, 2017, 02:03:27 PM »Unless I'm remembering it wrong (which is possible), that back and forth ended pretty well.It couldn't be any more obvious. I said the same thing years ago, the thread got locked and you responded to me in a PM.you're essentially saying all the same things that everyone else is but he listens to you because you rub him off a little bit before arguing with him.I was going to make a long-winded response, but instead I'll just ask this: is this honestly how you feel about it? This line, specifically. I can understand weird, but how is it sick to be nice to someone? Or masturbatory, for that matter. 635

It's effectiveness. Yes, it's hard to not see things work out, for people to just revert back after you've spent so much energy trying to help them. But your second option-- even in your eyes-- seems to basically just be "not trying". You'll get to be right, but being right doesn't do anything to achieve your goals; specifically, you're not doing anything to prevent or alleviate suffering. If it has that 0% success rate, then you're probably just introducing more suffering by hitting people while they're down. 638

The Flood / Re: isn't it funny how we warmly applaud ex-addicts for being "clean" for a year« on: November 24, 2017, 01:06:40 AM »but for how difficult it is for most people to be sober, maintaining sobriety for perhaps someone as long as i have starts looking more and more like a genuine praiseworthy... attribute (if not achievement or accomplishment), if you ask meAt that point, you're just embodying the idea of total legal normalcy. Not to say that it's being "average" since that would have involved trying a drug at least once or twice, but the kind of person who's in the middle. I say the middle instead of the other side because the opposite of "addict getting clean" would be "the person who helps addicts get clean". The most positive and productive way to be validated for sobriety is to help others make the same choice. It's a weird thing to say, but being sober is something most useful when it's spread rather than upheld by a few. I'm not saying you need to become a registered therapist and go run AA meetings, but simply helping the people you know make the right choice works. It's the people to either side that get noticed, not the ones in the middle; if you want recognition, you can be recognized for helping people get clean. 641

The Flood / Re: If you have to ask for help, you have failed.« on: November 23, 2017, 10:07:53 PM »
Yes, but failure is the natural state. Success requires proper knowledge and ability to attain, and asking for help is the first step towards it. You can't expect to succeed if you don't take the opportunity to do so.

The Flood / Re: isn't it funny how we warmly applaud ex-addicts for being "clean" for a year« on: November 23, 2017, 09:58:24 PM »so of what purpose is forgiveness, especially when nobody actually seems to care anywayForgiveness is earned. There's a reason why being sober for a year is something that gets congratulated, whereas being sober for two days is ignored at best and still scorned at worst. It's because committing to the path of correcting one's mistakes is more certain the longer it's maintained. Everything boils down to habits; if you're in the habit of doing heroin, then a few days not doing it just means that-- even if you're trying-- you could still quite easily relapse without any noticeable difference to the schedule of disappointments. If you go five years without doing heroin, it means the person put in enough effort to stop being a disappointment, and that should be congratulated. Really, the applause isn't for being drug-free, it's for not being a burden anymore (whether it be emotional, financial, physical, etc). And continuing to punish people for things they have either pushed through, or are pushing through, seems pretty counter-productive. I'm not saying give uncle Das $500 for not touching kids for a week, but maybe give him a shoulder pat when he admits that the supermarket giving him back incorrect change wasn't a Zionist conspiracy. Spoiler tbh good job on stirring up activity. Seems like there's been as many posts in this thread since yesterday as there's been on the Flood all week. 645

Gaming / Re: Lootboxes = Gambling« on: November 22, 2017, 07:13:53 PM »Are trading cards comparable to loot boxes/gambling? Should they also be banned for the same reasons?They are gambling, yes. A key difference is that they have rigid payouts (mtg packs have 10 commons, 3 uncommon, 1 rare/mythic, one land/foil) unlike gaming MXTs (the only reason we know anything about Overwatch's payouts are because of Chinese regulations on gambling). There is also a readily available secondhand market in place for people who would rather choose to get the card without going on a pack train. Not saying there shouldn't be regulation, but there are some key difference that make it not as bad as MXTs. 654
