    A Discussion: Being "Kind" when Responding in Second Life (and Forums)

    in General Discussion Forum

    Posted

    Disclaimer - not read replies.

    Personally I don't think its possible to be kind in responses here on the boards to certain people cos...

    1 - I end up getting reported and sent into time out because people can't just suck it up and move on, they HAVE to tattle cos their "widdle internet feelings got hurt cos someone disagrees with them".

    2 - It ends up wandering into "not on topic" territory and is therefore deleted.

    3 - Some people just don't deserve kindness.

    That being said, my biggest kindness here on the boards is just to block you or just ignore your posts altogether!

    As for inworld - I simply say "thank you" if complimented on my avatar.  All other kindnesses from me include just ignoring, stopping replying or just logging out.  Cos if you ain't got anything nice to say...

    We've  been doing something recently that we used to do the other way around.. We used to always watch an original version of a move before watching the newer versions..

    Now we're finding it really enjoyable watching the newer versions before seeing the originals..

    Last week it was these two which are both just amazing well made movies.. I can't imagine how hard it had to be  to have made the original as it seems like it would have been so far ahead of anything else in it's time.. There was so much detail that went into the making of it and it still just looks so well made today.. It has held up the test of time I guess is what I mean. I was amazed by the sets and the wardrob and details and the size of everything..

    The newer one having  a feeling of more , I don't know really, maybe more detail in story and more realism  in a way, but still very well made as well.. I liked the newer way they did it where they seemed more human than like reading from books with the language, although I do enjoy that as well from the first movie..

    Anyways enough gabbing about these two..

    Here is the newer and then the older trailer, in the order that we watched them..

    Exodus: Gods and Kings

     

    The 10 Commandments

     

     

    Omg I did that last week too...exact same movies!!!

    Just the last couple of pages the way you explain "winning" and mansplaining in your heart menders group, and this post specifically, I highly suspect that you have had ANY real training in psychology. 

    The way you gaslight, can't see others points of view, only your own and the way you throw a tantrum when you don't get your way tells volumes that you are just pulling stuff out of your butt. 

    I would warn anyone to stay far away because you do WAY more harm than good.

    You get it now!!!

    You called someone here a "s o i  b o y"  and must have hurt someone's feelings.

    I had to google it, I'm not up on the latest variations of humans.

    I did not call anyone here that, cos I don't stoop to name calling when I disagree with a person.  It was a generalisation of some men that you can find out in the wilds these days.

    Why is it so hard to make friends now a days?!

    I think the problem is that people have forgotten how to communicate, hold conversations, know its okay to disagree and still like each other.  Mobile phones and the pandemic really have done a number on how people interact with each other and its quite sad.  I enjoy a good conversation or debate, but these days conversations inworld are like pulling teeth - painful and a challenge to get through, so I tend to tap out and not bother with them.  As for disagreements or debates?  You're labelled a "-phobe" or an "-ist" if you disagree with certain opinions or viewpoints, so again, what's the point?

    And yet I am still hopeful one day I will find interesting conversations and healthy debates.

    Anybody still use Catwa heads?

    I never thought I would give up my Catwa head cos I just loved how I looked with it, even though it was 6 yrs old and "outdated", I still loved it.  I switched to a Lelutka head back in December when I did the whole "new name, new me" thing and no regrets.  I love how I look now too!

    I am going through a whole boxing stuff I no longer use phase and a few weeks ago boxed up my Catwa stuff.  I went down over 5,000 items just from my skins/makeups alone!
