You can talk about that show all you want there, and talk about everything else here just like before. And since I'm no longer in that forum (I left a long time ago), there is no chance of offending me there.
TBH I too am a little upset over Iwata's death- I'm just trying to use mechanisms (that is justifying why I shouldn't feel sad for Nintendo has wronged me) to prevent me from going off the deep end of depression.
And TBH after you made the post, I honestly really feel awful now. I didn't meant to anger you like that. I'm very sorry. Nobody should leave the forum, you're the one keeping the forum alive this time around. So don't leave.
Well, you didn't really anger me. I just got irked by the apathetic response to Iwata's death. You did explain why you felt that way, which I appreciate. What did happen though was a flood of emotions and frustrations, which I outlined last night.
I don't want to leave the forums, but if I go, perhaps you will be able to talk about things more and keep the forum alive along with Sandy and Blake. I also don't want to hurt your feelings in any way. I have already done that countless times, and It's likely that it will happen again.
I'll admit, I wanted to just call it quits right then and there last night just to see what kind of response I would get. That is horrible to think about, even though I never followed through with that, knowing intentionally stirring up drama is not good at all. I now fear that my long rant last night may have been just my emotions attempting to get a response. I don't know if that is the case or not. All in all, it did allow me to vent a bit without being too confrontational, but...
It's just that I get very frustrated dealing with you. I'm not saying that out of hate, but out of concern. I want to get along with you despite having opinions I will never agree with, but at times I find it impossible. This is a reason why I trimmed my Facebook friends list last month. A few of my former "friends" there followed right wing politics and some of the worst of conservative propaganda. One of them even posted debunked stories or even satire as fact. I also feared they would take one of my political comments, send it off to some right-wing website and I would get shamed for my opinion. They followed such sites. Thus, I removed myself from those situations. Ever since then, social media has been more enjoyable.
Hence why I'm thinking of leaving. I can't promise that I won't stop talking about ponies every now and then, and I also feel we will get into yet another conflict. Blake says he hates it when we both get into arguments. I don't like to either, but I just don't see a way forward free of conflict. It's best that I remove myself before anything happens, like what I did with Facebook.
I still haven't decided for sure.
I love foxes, especially the one in my avatar.
