That's what it came off to me, I can't help but feel that way that someone who's been here for as long as you have and contributed in long and detailed discussions about particular hive things in posts all around would act the way you did to a simple misunderstanding at best and a potential diss of your post/threat with downvotes at worst.
You told me to "let it go" after you'd already left several long comments about nothing I was pointing at while saying shit like "if this is what this place is turning into then I'll leave right now" and insinuating all kinds of shit about my persona and activity while you kept ignoring my simple explanation for the community to defend itself to outright spam/low effort garbage.
I was hoping the "chill out" would make you give this a couple days like you just did when you apologized but instead you decided to take it as an aggressive statement and continue rambling about things that didn't occur nor were the intentions ever to be translated that way.
If you read my comments there it's literally going in circles explaining what I meant so you would understand what I meant but you kept choosing to focus on what I didn't mean.
So no, I wasn't being disrespectful, I simply left a quick reply to one of your commenters AFTER leaving a reply to you on your post. My activity wasn't meant to be malicious but to engage in your post's comments and end up informing a somewhat inactive user why this post itself wouldn't get downvoted but others that seem like it would by other authors.
The problem I have now is that I don't know if you're just off lately and that's why this happened or if you're on your way out and looking for a scapegoat, but I hope it's the former. That's just me stating what I think cause the alternative that you think I'd be against people experimenting/being creative here is quite absurd.
Either way, my time is better spent somewhere else and I'll make sure I don't accidentally end up being social in your posts any longer.
I was hoping to clear things up and move forward.
Okay, but I wouldn't forgive others doing this, whether accidental or not. Reputation is everything as they say.
Hope you continue posting and being creative.
As stated, it's a simple communication breakdown. I'd prefer not to talk in circles once again but rather step away and move past this. You've said multiple times I'm a waste of time. You're jumping to conclusions that aren't mine. These things don't need to be said, but I'm not giving you shit.
It's true I haven't been feeling well, for quite awhile.
I'll see you around, dude.
Mate, you already gave me shit.
We could've had a good conversation about anything else rather than a misunderstanding that you started and continued for a few comments instead of reacting to my explanation I tried to give too many times and ending it there. It is a waste of time for both you and me, unless what you wanted out of it was that misunderstanding and drama to continue then it's probably just a waste of time for me as you're getting what you wanted.
Apologize for jumping to these conclusions, but that makes more sense to me now than the misunderstanding that occurred here and what transpired afterward. I respect you so I'm okay to waste that time, if it had been someone else I would've ignored them comment trees ago.
I'm not trying to continue this, I usually become the defacto loser in such arguments cause english isn't my native language and I may focus on the wrong things when writing out comments. I just don't appreciate it when people purposely waste someone's time when I give them the benefit of the doubt that they're not trying to do that so I hope that's not the case here else that'd be quite disappointing.
Hope you feel better soon
I'm not trying to waste time. I'm trying to use time to clear things up so I can feel comfortable moving forward. I understand these things can be challenging sometimes.
Acid. We're both better than this. Boiled down, it's a petty disagreement caused by miscommunications on both sides. Nothing we do or say at this point can change that. Time to move on.
You're not my superior. I'm not your superior.
I've worked on my patience a lot but still slip up sometimes. Doesn't matter who it is, I'll feel bad if I lose my cool on them.
I'm not interested in burning this place down or alienating anyone. I'm a human, I have flaws. Just like everyone. When it comes to the things I care about, I can be quite passionate. What's hidden behind that is a place of respect. I won't change my ways. I'll just get better at them.
Seriously dude. Starting now, we're both walking away from this, better people. And I will not be holding a grudge.
Both of you guys are outstanding members of the Hive community, I think (I'm sure), if you guys were in a face to face encounter, instead of online, this wouldn't have gone down like this. Without that ability to read the others facial expressions and smiles, miscommunication can happen. Anyways have a great weekend guys!!
Your timing was good with this message. Uplifting. Thanks.
I'll still be around. Posting is out though and I want to make it clear, again, it's not because of this conversation. If I post and everything goes well, a huge part of the full experience is the comment section. I might reconsider in the future but I know at this point it's hard to keep up. Wouldn't be able to maintain a high level on energy throughout on a good day. The focus is on other things and needs to stay that way.
You're another one I want to thank for all the good times over the years. So many laughs. Thanks for being a part of that. So many good memories.
