@masquerade thx and I agree with you

I sm not telling you to get a social life I am just saying that sometimes you shouldn't trust people online more than you do people in RL.

@Hedwig68

Yeah. Okay. Sure. Fine. Whatever.

What more do we have to say? We support our opinions, you support yours. And obviously you don't agree with us.

Keep in mind though that it's ignorant for some other users to assume we don't have a social life and to tell us to get off here. It's not that simple. It's NEVER that simple.

It's not even being insecure. Maybe we just know more people and are friendly with more people on EggCave, maybe we have the guts to express are feelings, with the knowledge that anyone can see it. It's trusting these people you know. Even if we meet online, we're all still human beings behind a computer screen. It's all the same to me.

I support everything I believe in this case. I'm not stupid. As a matter of fact, I'm plenty intelligent.

But I'm done arguing. EggCave is a wreck with people acting so ignorant towards something they know nothing about. So I'm not wasting my energy on it. There's no use trying to convince you.

I'm just done.

@hedwig68
Please respect other people's opinions and decisions. This applies to both what has been said in this thread and the initial topic.

Yes, we don't always like to read these things, but sometimes all someone needs is a listening ear. And sure, we might not always agree with how trusting someone is of someone else over the Internet, but there could be a good reason behind it.

While I agree that an abundance of topics that are downers tends to brings someone's mood down, that doesn't mean you need to attack them for it. In fact, most of the topics on the livepulse are positive. (At least, when I look.) Plus, if you read the threads, they can turn out positive.

As for social lives, it's not your place to judge someone. Some people I know online have a difficult time with a social life outside of the Internet due to medical issues.

And I'd rather this topic was closed. This will probably get out of hand if it goes any further. |:

Actually, there is.

You need to learn people's situations first.

Me? I don't even go to a school: im schooled online. Due to health issues. I have stomach spasms that restrict me when they act up. I'm having one right now. Because of this, and the fact I just had ankle surgery a year ago and just got released, AND has OA, I can't have a normal social life. Some days I feel so horrid I can't get out of bed.

If I randomly quit eggcave to work on real life, I'd be worst off. Because I'd have days where I can't do anything but text someone, which is basically what Im doing right here in this topic. Typing on my iPod.

I can't randomly go to the mall with my "girl friends", my ankle would tire out. It would have to be something like sitting around just doing nothing.

Sorry, I choose an online social life

@cafe I understand but when I talk about not having a social life I mean the ones who choose not to have friends.

@hedwig68 I rant because I have no one else to rant to, apart from my step-sister. I can't complain or I'll be punished. Badly.

If you don't think you're interested or you'll like a topic, don't read or post in it. You don't have to complain about other complaints. Not everyone's life is perfect. And you can just ignore it rather than read it because you can rant about it.

And Ian doesn't *usually* respond to pings given the massive amount he gets, so it's best to report the topic.
