Here's to more empathy out there in the various nooks and crannies of the online gaming discussion community type thing.

Side note it's clear as day to me as well. And I agree I'd rather have friends than winning. I've made a lot of friends so far and have enjoyed the conversations. If something comes up that bothers me, I try not to get into it. Good post. shanepatrickwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09779728578574223142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-180218908673100357.post-2381111293260543402017-09-27T16:28:37.152-04:002017-09-27T16:28:37.152-04:00My personal opinion is that conflict is so common ...My personal opinion is that conflict is so common when discussing RPGs in particular BECAUSE we have a higher proportion of people with some sort of personality disorder. I know when I began gaming in the 80s, I was an immature teen with undiagnosed ADHD, I lacked self-confidence and self control, but I was imaginative and enthusiastic, and that's why gaming appealed. When I look back at the guys I played with, we were not the 'normal' kids, but that was why we banded together with a common interest. I suspect many of the old-time gamers who now frequently online groups are very similar. Thus, and I know I'm generalising, a lot of us have strong personal views, are unlikely to waver in them, and don't always possess the tools to get them across in the most empathetic of ways.Jon Paytonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06037418962043234320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-180218908673100357.post-63495563223805589302017-09-27T14:20:25.389-04:002017-09-27T14:20:25.389-04:00Clear as day, man, and Amen to 95% of it.Clear as day, man, and Amen to 95% of it.PapierundSpiele.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10583254832663722163noreply@blogger.com
