Point taken. I was trying to be helpful, but clearly I'm not so that's my cue.

That's fair. I only made my comment because I didn't interpret her posts that way. @FairreLilette I think I know what you meant, but for everyone else's benefit, you could apologise for wrongly wording your thoughts? Anyway seriously, I'm not enjoying this anymore so have fun people.

Well there is an apology but it's probably not to the standard of this crowd. Her post was not meant in the way that others interpreted, which she tried to convey. She then tried to correct her wording, but was not good enough. So I'm sure this apology will be nit-picked with faults and how wrongly worded it is. Semantics at this point.

No, my post was to highlight what I think she meant, which was that she was first talking about children and their interactions with their parents. Then she went on a separate thought about people with conditions. They were not one and the same. Her reference to children was not her reference to those with conditions - they were separate and were not meant to be used as comparisons. Unless she said something else offensive that I missed. Anyway, I'm done. You guys fight it out.

She has since corrected herself.

I think the point is that we're all from different backgrounds with different personal and health situations, and that may be something to keep in mind when interacting here. Not everyone's at the same level of eloquence, or way of thinking, so maybe we can be more patient? Or maybe not since this thread is about us being too damn nice.

I'm with you, I do appreciate politeness. But I do sense hesitance from people when it comes to making contact but then again, I could be wrong.

The silence inworld could be because we're not nice at all. People get touchy about getting IMd by strangers or getting bumped accidentally, it's enough to make you want to avoid people altogether. Most of the IMs I've gotten from strangers start off with "sorry to bother you... ", it's sad when people feel they can't approach others and have to start with an apology. Drama wouldn't be good for sl because people would just end up being blocked. Even leaving a product review puts you at risk of that.

Sent a notecard to a creator about their permissions being wrong and them coming back to tell me they're not going to fix it since not enough people complained about it *sigh*

Yeah why do people call regions sims? Is it from The Sims or something?

Not everyone's nice here on the forum which I'm sure you've figured out. But if you want to participate, I guess you'll have to stiffen up that upper lip and take all kinds of people. There have been times I've felt discouraged to participate here too due to.. people, so you're not the only one. The trick IMO is to ignore it. Engaging them and letting them know they're getting to you makes it worse. Don't give people power over you. You can choose to only engage with people who have a positive impact on you.

Wait.. what? Do merchants get told who flagged their listings?

I do see the reasons for merchants blocking customers. I just think that the ability to block should be two way. That's just my opinion anyway *shrug*

Ah sorry I didn't know that function but thanks. True and I know you're right. But what I mean is that the function would be more of a convenience to buyers rather than a necessity. I am really just thinking about the sheer number of gacha resellers that a buyer can't realistically keep track of. I've been burnt by quite a few and I have a list that I peruse before checking out. Sure it's doable but like I said, it'd be more of a convenience.
