The public building worlds have a rating, I believe, but these newsgroups only have a charter. Maybe we should all go back and read it over...

BTW ... where IS the charter?

Apr 3, 2001, 12:39pm

what good is a charter if there is nothing to enforce it- remember the pacts and treaties in WWII that hitler violated with
content.. who was to stop him? no one was enforcing.. no punishment for breaking them.. so what's the point all together?

And a community has a sense of decency, whether it has a rating, a charter
or none. This newsgroup is rated 'all ages', it does not have a large X at
the door. Not only 'all ages', but 'all people', which means one should
respect others. For sure, from time to time discrepancies and fights will
emerge, like in any community. But this is no place for constantly bashing
people, insulting them, ordering them about as if one were G'd Allmighty,
consistently using foul and deprecatory language. I understand that AWCOM
has no obligation to stop this sort of attitude in here, and possibly also
lacks the means to do so. So for my part, I muted the guy... which won't
stop him. Unfortunately, a few people here actively help this guy to
continue insulting the community, so called because of his input. It is
very difficult to know what to do as an individual in this sort of case but,
frankly, I've had enough (for the second time, the first time I stopped
visiting the newsgroups for a few months).

LOLOL ... c'mon ... its not going to get read THERE, now is it? Perhaps a
link off the activeworlds.com newsgroups page would be an idea ... assuming
its still relevant.

<chuckle> It's funny how the TRUE insecure types feel the need to go around belittling people who actually stand up for what they believe in. Grimble, you don't know me off-line yet you think you can be a wanna-be shrink and psychoanalyse me, eh? Think again, sport. I don't find people off-line that talk about the things I am interested in as much as I find on-line; hence, I'm more passionate about my opinions. <shrug> Don't like it? Filter me--it's that simple. Persist in being lame and I'll simply filter YOU. Dig? Super. Now drive the fuck through, twat.

[View Quote] [View Quote] That's your incorrect assumption. I'm not as...to-the-point off-line because there are many MANY more "social cues" to react/relate to. On-line (at least textually) there are not so I tend to lay off the "fluff social crap" and stick to the point. Unfortunately, most people aren't as...skilled at this and so they tend to rely on the traditional face-to-face crap which gets in the way of the actual topic at hand. <shrug>

And if you want to "survive" in the virtual world you're going to need to pay attention more to what you write if you don't want people taking offense to what you write. Me, I offend PURPOSELY; if you offend and aren't aware of it, you need to stop being so oblivious to what you're actually communicating (textually in this case).

Apr 4, 2001, 4:17am

Actually, if you talk to people who know me (off-line OR on-line), you'll find I DON'T like being the center of attention--in fact, anything but. Unfortunately, it's actually the low self-esteem people who feel the need to talk about me because they are probably impressed by my assertiveness and opinions--of which they wish they could emulate (to a certain degree in most cases). At any rate, it's easy to be more "outgoing" textually for the simple reason of not having to deal with the real-time social crap. <shrug>

So perhaps you and the others so intently analyzing MY actions should actually look into the mirror and analyze YOUR reaction to me...

Still not with you icey ...

I just made some flippant comment regarding a certain's person's belief that
other members in the NG aspire to achieving his advanced level of forming
opinions/being assertive and that social, personal interaction and the
etiquette that goes with it was ... and I quote ... "crap".

When did this become about me? I was just joining in the discussion.
