Guest DT Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Due to the current unsettled state of the forum, I have decided to take a posting hiatus until after the tournament so you all can focus on the games and the players themselves and not be distracted by non game related discussion. I will be here, reading only. Enjoy the post season DT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eschnur66 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 (edited) Imagine if you @DT were not seen as the thin skinned one, and rather, all of the people whose feelings get hurt just read your commentary for what it is. I do not agree with a lot of what you post, but that is actually a good thing. We need more positive disagreements in our society, rather than the, "You are wrong, you suck, so shut up and go away!" mentality that has infiltrated so many areas of our lives. Imagine where our game would be today if there were never any dissenters and everyone was ok with just going with the flow. Kuddos to you and your unpopular opinions Mr. @DT!

Ive been doing this for 17 years. If I were thin skinned I would have been gone long ago. Too many snowflakes have infiltrated our forum. They want a kinder, more peaceful GID with a kumbaya mentality. They shall have it. I have no skin in the game. People here seem to only want to focus on "facts." Without opinion and commentary, the site is basically unreadable, at least in my view Good Day😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with disagreement. But DT chose to take his ball and go home. Not any of our faults he can't handle it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duke of Denham Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Wait are we supposed to let everyone know when we stop trolling a forum? If so, I have to go back to a WWE forum from 1999 and let everyone know that I won’t be trolling them anytime soon. What was my login? Oh yeah!

However, it seems that as time passes, people whose opinions do not fit the narrative of the masses are not engaged with in discussion. Rather, they are attacked for being a dissenter. Do you want me to apologize for feeling different? I like that he posts things that drive discussion. I wish that I had more time to engage in banter about these topics, but I do not. I just enjoy reading his take, but honestly when all of the responses are that you suck, you are wrong, or OMG, I cannot believe that you think that, it gets really boring. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
