Forum Overview :: Rants :: The "what are you doing with your life?" line is becoming way to much of a go to

[quote name="Worm"][quote name="worthless shitfuck mod"]People you interact with have not gone anywhere. Everyone can post in the Hangout. The threads you were posting in will return in a few days. If you cannot wait that long, then maybe a moment to reflect on a few things is in order.[/quote] Yeah asshole, you don't want to spend your Christmas in some jumbled mess of a mega-forum to let our autistic mods sit down with their TV dinners? LOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER. It's such a ridiculous idea on every level but the idea that this pissant could comment on when other people need to engage in self reflection, all the while shutting down a message board to get "family time", really takes the cake. I love the implication that these guys won't be up before the crack of dawn on Christmas Day handing out infractions to anyone that objects to the temporary ruining of the forum. As if spending your Christmas on an internet forum isn't enough of a reason for reflection. As if this entire thing isn't just to create the illusion that those moderators put in less time to the forums and are smarter than everyone on it, when certainly the reverse is true. This sentiment is so common nowadays it makes me sick. "I might moderate a forum but I'm not a loser like those posters(who are smarter/funnier than me and spend less time on the forum", "I might play MMOs but I'm not a loser like those assholes who play all day and have all the best gear(even though I <b>do</b> play all day yet find myself unable to succeed in even this virtual world)", "I might play this F2P game but I'm not a loser like those people who spend money on it (Even though my insistence on not spending a cent probably costs me more in the long run)". It's the new fucking paradigm of "nerd culture", everyone is afraid of being a loser. Well I think it's about time everyone face the fucking music, we're all losers. I really don't think there's anything wrong with it, in fact all the issues come from the denial of this fact. People somehow want to reconcile sitting on forums during Christmas with being a "winner", and we end up seeing these stupid acrobatics as a result. This same kind of idea is running games and MMOs as well, it's just a complete fucking shame.[/quote]
