Regarding this spot and the baru saja decrease of fun - a disorganised rant

posted by Quaila

I was typing up an response to iluvtwilight_ for my personal enjoyment when someone reported the pertanyaan and had it removed. I felt much frustration as what was once a very entertaining activity was reduced to pointlessness. This makes an already depressed person like me lebih depressed. Siriusly, I want to committ suicide now...

No, I don't... not yet. But I considered leaving for a brief moment.
But to address this problematic issue. I present: link. O.o What's this? Wikipedia has a specific project devoted to adding humour to the site? OMG, on such a serious site?

Yes, even on such a serious site as Wikipedia, wikipedians are allowed their daily share of fun, whether it is in laughing at a vandal atau musing at the department. Why? Because, very high stress levels daily is quite a problem for most people, including myself. Which is what recently happened at this spot with the youknowit101 affaire. Now, I quote: "Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and a community. At times people suffer from high stress levels, and the most important thing to remember is to have fun."
Similarly, this spot is a serious debating spot, and also a community. The fan on here are not mindless robots with one and one purpose only, they're human beings, with quirks, habits and most importantly, feelings.
They come here to have fun, to enjoy a few menit of lulz before battling real life. Take this away and what do anda have? A bunch of angsty teenagers in some lebih mature fan eyes? Yes.
Whether atau not anda dislike these bunch of angsty immature teenagers, they have chosen oleh their free will to make this spot their fun place of the day. Who are anda then to remove it?

cassie-1-2-3 I reported it. I said something along the lines of "This question can be reported, and eventually deleted for causing too much unnecessary conflict, if you guys don't mind" I did not report it, UNTIL someone else said reporting it was a good idea. I found it necessary to report because there were very few answers actually adressing the question. It was mainly filled with a bunch of people personally attacking and insulting the asker. "The fans on here are not mindless robots with one and one purpose only, they're human beings, with quirks, habits and most importantly, feelings. " That is exactly why I reported it.. The asker was a person with feelings, no matter how she spells. People found it necessary to attack this person because she insulted a book? A book is not a person. It's not as big a deal to insult a book. One of the main purposes of a book is to be criticized. It's not a big deal at all. (All Fanpop users are people, even if Harry Potter isn't their favorite book) If attacking and insulting a person is how you have fun, then I'm glad I'm not you.

Quaila Have you read the question properly? Do you agree that it was insincere? Have you investigated her other posts? Have you as I have that they are perfectly normal?

Quaila I do neither condone or condemn the angsty immature teenagers who went ad hominem, I strived in my response to not attack her.

cassie-1-2-3 Yes I did. There was still no need to insult her. "Two wrongs don't make a right" Something I've been reading quite often around here lately.

Quaila I agree, but I do neither condone or condemn the angsty immature teenagers who went ad hominem, I strived in my response to not attack her. There's no changing the past, so forget about it.

youknowit101 Lmao

Quaila Der Rittmeister von Blücher können sich zum Teufel scheren.

youknowit101 You told her to forget about it like she's the one upset that the questions gone.

cassie-1-2-3 ... Sometimes, I'm okay with people walking away with some pride, so it's fine. But thank you anyways.

youknowit101 Another example where reporting is a good thing

youknowit101 Not quite, kid

cassie-1-2-3 One should not find great joy in degrading a person to no end. you can refer to this in any derogatory tense possibly intended, but I would reverse such claim if I were you.
