Going Overboard! · PACKERSHOME

Alright, so the last 7 or games so I've deliberately been going over board in the chat. I hoped by being the king fool, others would see how stupid it looks and force them to take a better approach. Problem is, that foolish attempt plus a lot of things going on at once has spilled over into the forums ... on my end. It needs to stop because it's not who I am, nor what I want the site to be about.

I often times forget that even half hearted joking comments can sting and bother people too. I need to be more mature in my comments and will be making a conscious effort to do so.

To those whom feel attacked by me or treated unfairly, I sincerely apologize and hope you know and understand it was never anything personal - even if my wording contradicts that. You are all a great group with their own special contributions in one way or another.

Summary ... it appears I've been taking things too seriously and need to lighten up. At least, that's what I see when I read my stuff from 'someone elses shoes'.

STFU - Zero, I have been talked to that way all my life, and nobody on here has ever hurt my feelings, especially our inbreed Viking buddies.

Now, I have been trying to be nicer to everybody - but it is difficult with some of you because of the repoir we have built over the years.

Nobody needs to be nice to me. As Nostraslayer said, I seem to enjoy the abuse.

I know what you mean about the rapport. I still need to do a lot better because it's just not me, not who I am or how I want to be viewed. It's possible the person I'm directing my comments towards knows I'm not serious ... however others who don't know will walk on eggshells in fear of saying something that may cause someone going over board.

I want others, everyone, to feel they can say any opinion without consequence and I have to lead by a better example ... regardless of whom I'm talking to and if they know my comments are fruitless.

I like that I always feel welcome here 🙂 Thanks Z.

I thought this was a given.

As for the chat, I missed last week. No idea what I missed.

There is some serious amounts of ass kissing you must make yourself do over there. I like it here because Zero is more like a little brother than some authority figure, and there are many posters who like to do all the statistal crap that I absolutely loathe. Just stay away from VR, Wade, Gunny Dfoster, WPR. They're a bunch of old hippies that think everyone has to kiss their ass just cause their old. [grin1]
