We get it. I practically coined Cody Was Right. He, Cody, turned it into a hashtag. You don't get anything that's going on here. I wasn't going to post this, but you're just way too dense to get it. People here know each other. Many of us have known each other for years. Yet here you are, seeing people replying to Cody disagreeing with him with things, and you have these stupid gifs like you're sitting back waiting to see some mega thread pop up of hate when in reality you're the one who has been the primary source of drama via personal attacks on the community and individuals within the community. Yeah, you apologized, etc., but you're still posting gifs, egging people on, and acting like because someone replied to Cody disagreeing with him that somehow his opinions are being disregarded because they're "negative".

Trust me, there are plenty of negative opinions here that have been disregarded and trolled and people who have been treated with disrespect when they shouldn't have been. Your case is not even close to those. You don't know what you're witnessing or who half of anyone here is or if they've known each other or the rapport or anything. Sit back, read, enjoy. Otherwise expect more of the same from people who are responding to you. And this is where I bow out from replying to you before I get myself into trouble. I hope you figure it out homie.

Did it cross your mind that the GIFs and "egging people on" were just jokes? I'm not seriously expecting a massive confrontation. I was being glib. I wasn't trying to rile anyone up.

So for the sake of clarity, I will refrain from being glib or sarcastic for the duration of this post. Everything I say here should be taken at face value.

1) I did not think Vagueness was disregarding Cody's opinion at all. I was just being glib.

2) It did seem like Ragashingo was being a little rude, though, calling Cody a "psychic know-it-all". But hey. They've known each other for years and maybe he's just teasing. That's fine, but how should I be expected to know that?

Maybe I should reconsider Car's Corner. A large part of the reason why I blew up at the community before was because it's not a very welcoming place. Oh, sure, it's great if you've all known each other for years. I haven't. I don't know my way around and apparently I just have to sit back, read, and enjoy if I want to find out. That's a pretty big barrier to entry. It's also part of the reason for my frustration with the community that led to my big tantrum a few days ago. Didn't anyone anticipate new people joining up because of Bungie's big bad brand-new IP?

I've been to other (and far worse) forum communities with this exact same problem. You're too much of a "clubhouse" for my taste.

Maybe I should reconsider Car's Corner... or just leave altogether...

EDIT: That's all I'm going to say on the subject. There is no way in hell we're going down this road again.
