Actually.. there is a pun with "paella" (pa'ella) meaning "for her" when written with apostropheMy immediate assumption was that "paella" must be Spanish slang for "pussy"...but then the image of all sorts of small chewy bits down theremade me think "I sure hope it isn't slang for pussy."
All good. You seem like someone who says and does things deliberately so I'm sure you had the best intentions for the community at heart. Just thought I'd bring an outside perspective on this altercation and the community as a whole.In general I agree with your view that I may have been too aggressive on the first response.
He rubbed me wrong, not exactly for critiquing the game, he hadn't even played it, but, by his attitude towards everything, like it was made to annoy him.
I could have been the bigger person and let it fly by, sure. The thing is:
1- If I had, we would have to deal with that attitude anyway and for longer. That 1st post was a test. He was trying to see, maybe even without noticing, what the limits were and with how much he could get away with.
2- I am not a confrontational person, but, I also hate bullies. He entered here as if the whole point of this thread was to serve him, expecting everyone to be polite to his rudeness, as he is undoubtedly used to. He barks, everyone cowers to not make a scene.
3- Because I value the community we created here, I have to be intolerant of the intolerants. I can't see any polite and respectful way to face up a bully that is effective, they don't respect or even understand that language.
So, sorry if I caused an incident, but the intention and the deliberate way it was done is, to me, more important. No bullies, never again.
Again I say, I am a pacifist, but I am not Pacific.
Peace
Feedback is good. After all, how can someone improve if nobody points out what could potentially be better?
I just liked his post because if I put the "Satou" meme my post gets deletedWrong 665...
This is a pity because it is nice to hear different opinions. As long as we don't end up arguing. I hope you change your mind
I think FatGiant's answer only had a problem. He quoted the guy's second post instead of the first one, when he was really rude.
Having people disagreeing with things (in a civil manner, like you did) is a great way to grow as a community. So, you are invited to abandon your lurking and be more active on the thread.
Because the tone of the scene changed a lot. While in bed, it's romantic and loving. In the bathroom, it's more wild and kinky. So, being a scene so long, I thought people who wanted to replay the wildest part (or see what the different outcomes in the watersports choices would be) didn't need to go through the bed part.
The Marks wayI think we need more ex-lurkers.
and sexually satisfied. And so far he does not spend his days in bed satisfying 10 a day. That could become a problem. And when he returns from Aruba having left them in abstinence for months???? How will he get out alive?While I realize that they do have both an inground swimming pool and a hot tub thing, really, the MC doesn't have time to add playing water sports to his activities list.....he's trying to help run a business and keep like 20 women happy and protected
Look, I am from the south too. I am Italian. And in my opinion you did nothing wrong
Kim is beautiful. I just can't understand the Vitiligo hate, but maybe its because here in Detroit we have news anchor Lee Thomas who has talked about the condition and written a book about his experiences.I try to accept any constructive criticism (if exposed politely). If someone enters the thread with a sentence like "The game went downhill the moment a fat student, a student without boobs, and a student who looks like someone threw acid on her face", I will defend my design choices (politely in the first answer most of the time), but I understand people who are fans of those students won't be happy (and not only because of the rudeness that sentence means for fat girls, girls with A-cups, or girls with vitiligo).
I think we need more ex-lurkers.
This is gonna be him
Boh. I remember Detroit never made it to a Super Bowl. I also remember Barry Sanders. Of course I remember him. What a running back. But news anchor with vitiligo... mmm... no I don't remember.
