Your right in saying its about your reaction, but if someone likes you, they don't really have any reason to start shit. And I'm not counting just general fucking around with eachother, I'm referring to real shit stirring and shit flinging.Religion is something you'll get shit for anywhere on the Internet. And much like people mess with you about the whole mod thing. But it's just messing around. No one has really gone after you and launched a shit storm (as far as I've seen).Obviously if your not liked, your at the mercy of everyoneUm. Literally anyone who is of any notice gets shat on. Psy gets called a cripple but he dabbles in a bit of occasional banter himself. It all depends on how well you take things and if you let things bother you.

Quote from: XNUKA Has Left on November 24, 2015, 02:34:55 AMI mean literally all people were doing was calling him a furry, which he was pretty open about for quite a while. He openly admitted it many times in the past that he was a furry, until fairly recently when he suddenly decided to become super closeted about it and act like it never happened. If you act spergy about it, which he did, people are going to poke at it.That's just how it is. No one would've really cared in the slightest otherwise. Big fucking whoop you were a furry, who cares.I believe that's half of the story. You of all people cannot defend Sep7agon's same old bullshit any longer. It's catching on. If he decides to deny it later on, it's probably because he was tired of getting shit for it.One interesting thing about you is you never bother to look at both sides of the coin, you're pretty much one sided. Sep7agon's side is always right, everyone else is just spegring with their problems, and hence, look at your username now. You're part of the crowd that's making fun of him. Two wrongs don't make a right, and it takes two to tango.Users can change sure, but the community itself needs to change in order for the user to accept himself/herself and put it behind him, sadly that's not how Sep7agon works. You can never be yourself.Spoiler"What's that? You're a furry? Hahaha faggot, kill yourself."Spoiler"What's that? You're autistic? Shut the fuck up you aspie!"Spoiler"What's that? You're a tranny? You're a disgusting worthless repugnant pile of shit."The last one no one really says, but you get the idea. My point is this is what will eventually kill the website, so if you truly give a shit, now would be a very good time to attempt change. Starting with the username. Everyone really, but alas. I know it won't happen. I'm betting my money on it that it won't happen.Quote from: XNUKA Has Left on November 24, 2015, 02:41:23 AMQuote from: Flood on November 24, 2015, 02:28:37 AMQuote from: XNUKA Has Left on November 24, 2015, 02:23:10 AMBeing able to handle banter is kind of a prerequisite for being a member here.

This site falls under full retard. If that's what you want to be, by all means. Have fun.I still blame how moderation was handled in the first year for how this community turned out. It's what happens in the beginning stages that sets the tone later on. People will always test the limits, and if you allow them then they'll keep doing it. The rest just adapt to it or leave/die off.But sure, this community used to be better and a bit more welcoming overall (though only by a little).Perhaps if you idiots didn't vote Kyio in you all would have been fine, but there is a first time for everything I suppose.

If one thing that people use doesn't get to you (like me being christian), they'll wait for something new and try again.Everyone gets shit on at some point. The amount depends on a person's reaction. Being well liked doesn't mean nobody tries to get to you anymore, they just know you don't care.
