@Shoryu Magami The longer standing members of the site tend to have an over inflated ego. Now, I'm not saying that about all of them, as there are some super cool ones such as Gowi and Lady A, just to name a few, but some of the others just come across as... well, I don't know how to put it really. Perhaps as if they are better than most? Once again, don't get me wrong, I've learned a ton from these guys, but the way the act at times... makes me think they need a reality check. It just really messes with me a bit as well, because, like you say they ARE the senior members of the site and you figure they would be the ones trying to make people feel welcome.
The post with Oliver, for me, anyway, was the first time I actually realized that your advice was good. Even though you are/were sleep deprived when writing those posts, your advice seemed genuine as where in -not that thread particularly- but some others that I have seen are just like 'Oh hey, here's a clichΓ© answer now shut-up and leave us alone.' And honestly, it means quite a bit to know that I'm one of the ones that keep you around this place, but if it ever becomes to much for you, just let us know and I'm sure we'll all understand.
Sure thing. Maybe I will. We'll see.
