Quoted from srmonte:Just tell the tools you will take a knee for them
Stupid snowflakes
.....on both sides....both sides......"
Quoted from AtariRoots:But more and more the type who get easily upset and angry at every little thing and less and less of the type that just enjoy the silver ball.
Its everywhere, right now.
Im sorry, I dont see it this way.
I have spent now 8 months at a new "job" since I retired, and it has been in social media analysis, from the sociological and political perspective.
This forum, and Pinball has been about the best there is in focus and civility.
The events of the world do creep in, sometimes in mood or attitude, and indeed their are a few bumps.
But Id rather be here, than any other board because of all the great people, not the few that might
not agree.
Sorry that you feel this way, maybe its time to tune out and play some pinball!
Quoted from AtariRoots:BTW it's kinda condescending to suggest that "well, if you don't like it, perhaps you should do something else"
A friendly suggestion was all it was...you know clear your head if your upset.
If you find it condescending arent you exhibiting what you are complaining about?
Or am I missing your point...? Im not disagreeing with you, or trying to shut you up. Im just wondering what you expect to happen?
Quoted from AtariRoots:Do you want discussion or do you want an echo chamber?
Im capable of both, but no thank you, Ill pass on it here.
Appreciate the effort. Good Luck as a New Person to Pinside!
Forceflow is one of a kind, and is a rare Gentleman, in today's world.
His disposition is something I look up to and his words are those I have respect for.
Pinside is lucky to have his wisdom and input.
Quoted from Crash:Yeah it would be nice if we could sort posts by rating. Would make it easy to spot trends and weed out trolls.
Wouldnt that make the flow and dialogue incomprehensive?
