Help
Alright, I'm obviosly doing something wrong. Avatara is pissed at me, Slug is pissed at me, my galaxy in Planetarion is pissed at me, and none of them are telling me exactly why. What am I missing? How am I making everyone miserable? Is anyone else harbouring some massive animousity that I don't know about? If so, who and why? Throw me a frickin' bone here and maybe I can do something about it.

And please, try to keep this as constructive criticism. We don't want too serious of a flame-fest.

I wish I could help here, Sarg, but I'm as in the dark as you are. If it helps any, I'm not P.O.ed at you.

I'm off my medication now (pain killer, I had surgery Thursday) but I can't really remember anything that happened since mid-Thursday. Judging from my e-mail, it seems I somehow managed to get everyone (except Laguna, Cotton, and SA) angry at me. Oh dear, I feared something like this would happen, but not to this extent.
Seeing as I now fear for my life, this may very well be my last post on the Ares boards. Well, it was fun while it lasted.

Ah. That answers a few questions. I still don't think you should leave though.

Gimme a prefs file and I can and maybe will.
As for Slug, he's mad at me and Laguna too, so I think its just that he's too quick to anger. If he was subtle, I'd be scared. [j/k, get the refrence?]

No, you had a list of people that weren't pissed at you, and I wasn't on it.

I'm not in the bst of moods right now because I'm having a lousy christmas.
My dear Great Grandma just died, my pet cat has a serious infection, my dad's company is nearly broke, I'm moving to another house in january, my favorite pet rat has a tumor, and you're complaining because I'm not treating you like royalty?!

If our military is so much better than theirs, then why don't we ever use it?

A highly inappropriate post has just been erased. So inapporpriate in fact, that it even exceeds my usually lax standards. For anyone who was unfortunate enough to see it, I apologize. I'll do my best to make sure that it doesn't happen again.

Sorry to hear that, Slug. You have my sympathy.
My great aunt just died as well. I wasn't very close to her, though, so it dosn't hurt me as much as you must be hurt.

Well I suppose that will make a person very upset, but it's never a good Idea to take out your aggressions on others, because it will always come back to bite you in the ass, from my experiance anyway, and it certinly doesn't help others to be angry at them, but you are having a tough period in your life right now, and I hope it gets better.

Sarg, before you post, I say you have an unfair advantage and so please don't post.
My grampa died this morning. But I don't mind, because he was happy when he was alive, and he was on morphine, so I don't think he minded much when he was going.

OK, I don't like this topic one bit, so I'm shutting it down now.
Sargatanus, you are not being persecuted. I don't know about off the boards, but on the boards nobody seems to be pissed off at you. I think you're overreacting.
Slug, you definitely overreacted there. You've got a lot of stress at the moment, but how is Sarg meant to know that? You've only just told that.
Furthermore, I can see this topic degenerating into a place for bitching about the problems you've got at the moment. We've all got problems, and there's no point magnifying them by trying to make them seem bigger than everyone else's.
I'm locking this topic now. If you want to discuss this in a productive manner, start a new topic.
