hmm..perhaps he is on point with the whole lacking self-restraint thing..maybe i have some serious issues but i see no difference in him telling me to go get pissed and slit my wrists and me telling him to go shoot up
I normally adopt a professional attitude. I usually tell Luna to let it go and try to ignore the trolls. I end up sounding reasonable. To be honest, though, I wish I could lose that attitude and wade in yelling. I'm glad you made this post. It's an opportunity for me to express myself to a certain extent and still seem rational.
Luna's my sister and I'm quite fond of her. She's many things, and impulsive is one of them. The actions she's taken I'm not proud of, but I'm even less proud of the egging on that's been happening. Ultimately, I'd like everyone who's done her wrong - yes I'm biased - to go to hell. So go to hell.
Despite my emotions, I'm able to refrain from doing something unethical. I'm more mature and, by virtue of my age, have greater responsibility placed on me by society. Luna still has time to grow into that. She is, in my opinion, a regular teenage girl trying to tackle responsibilities too early for her years. For that, I find her to be very courageous. Yet, I could compare it to watching someone playing with dynamite before the prequisite training to do so safely.
I hate watching that, but I don't want to discourage her either. So I'm left with damage control where I can manage to patch things up. The one fortunate thing about this forum is it appears drama is unwritten the rule here, and so these sequence of events aren't entirely too out of place. That, and sociopaths.

Heh. Well put. And I agree.
Oh, and Hitler. Don't forget Hitler.
Just the other day Edvard titled a post that asked why his avatar was changed to yours and you saw it as a direct assault. Today all this shit spawns off a "Happy 9/11!!!!" titled thread and you don't say a word. I don't get it. How could that not have been an attempt to start drama and problems?
I wanted you to say something because you have a way with words that escapes me. I want her to succeed, or whoever she is. There were genuine posts made to give constructive criticism. Not everyone called her names or relentlessly attacked her. In fact many constructive posts have been made recently but were dismissed, ignored or taken poorly. There are lessons to be learned from this and you could have really helped. (And still can of course.)
I wouldn't want to pressure her with high expectations or anything, but I have high expectations of her. I knew she had potential from the time she surfaced. She's hard business, and she has the resources to make it happen.
It's funny too, it's as though the Universe put her in place, cause the timing for her arrival, what she said she wanted to do, and what they have done is all so timely. Just how the old form went tits up and Luna was there at the right time. It looks as though she'll be very hard working and well off when she's older, and damn smart.
You too Cain. Not like Luna, but you seem to be on the road to flourishing, and you won't just be wise, you'll play out your wisdom and get yours.
