Title: Dear Geekhackers,
Post by: demik on Wed, 24 July 2013, 23:19:24
If I've been an ******* to you, I am sorry.

I know I can be negative most of the time, I don't know why. It's part of my nature for some reason, and I'm trying to change it. I tend to have a short fuse and I don't like it.

I don't want to name people specifically, because that's between me and them. But if you have any problems with me because I've been a **** to you in the past, do let me know. I'm not a bad guy, I promise.


I sometimes forget we are a community and we need to get along. Regardless of our interests, we share one which is what brought us here.


Again, I'm sorry.

We still love you demik.

Sometimes your cynicism in a thread is good - it breaks up the bitter and petty squabbling that there seems to have been more of lately.

Hmm... it seems none of the people who have posted thus far have bumped heads with you.

Personally, I don't let many things affect me on a personal level. I just gauge the situation. For the most part, I choose to ignore when you start your little outbursts of negativity.

It does seem to me, however, that that is your calling. You seem to post more about the "drama" than anything else.

We all know this places gets extremely boring when 'some' people STOP posting, so please everyone

Partially off-topic, but whatever. Not about demik anyway, my single transaction with him was straight-up.

These "warm and fuzzy" threads are nice, and all that, but where does all this personal stuff come in, anyway?

It is interesting to "get to know" the members of the community, and I particularly like seeing what you all actually look like in real life (should have put quotes around that phrase, too).

But while merely expressing opinions is usually acceptable, endless arguments and bickering are usually destructive to the community (ie dozens of increasingly lengthy and hostile posts from both sides on race relations - that is something not likely to be resolved on a keyboard forum!). At least keep the fisticuffs to squabbles over the virtues of various types of I/O hardware.

Look at Ripster as an example, once one of the most generous and prestigious members of this community, who abruptly descended into particularly ugly and venomous personal attacks and senseless trolling.

Everyone should have the right to express opinions, particularly contrasting ones, but say your piece and let it go.

Just my opinion, of course.
