Sociopath Community

No, it's a trait. Not a cause.

Yes, and then I tangented onto discussing risk taking from a question that was asked.

Seriously, with how off topic this place tends to go (with you being a common reason for it), I'm surprised you'd not be able to keep up with that this time around. It's not even that far off from the current discussion, it's just looking at Risk Taking generally, then seeing how it manifests in Psychopathy afterwards.

It's not that they take risks that's a bad thing, it's the risks they take that are bad. By identifying what Risk Taking itself is, it's easier to explain how irresponsibility is separate, something that modifies the trait itself.

 You're seriously blaming me. Are you fucking kidding me?

There are lot of other members who make threads go off-topic too. I'm hardly the reason for most of it.

I'm not blaming you, I'm simply saying it's surprising that you'd not be able to follow the discussion, with how common topic shifts are here.

Many of the topic shifts are people mocking you, which makes you the reason, even if you're not the one doing it. I can't really blame you for what they do. With it happening so commonly around you, I figured you'd be more adept at following changes of topic.

I guess I was wrong.

We were discussing risk taking behavior in psychopaths. You're the one who changed to "anyone who takes risks". You lost track of the conversation. Not me.

Many people have been mocked on this site, mostly by me. So, of course they get pissy and decide to retaliate. Yet, you make it sound like I'm simply the target and never the bully, when I'm the one who actually does most of the taunting. I do it more in chat than on the forum itself.

He asked a general question, so I gave it a general answer. You don't have to get all hot under the collar over a simple oversight. We all make them from time to time.

Starting to sound a little like Dex. At least yours lacks the victim mentality.

The title of this thread is Causes of Sociopathy. Duh.

...do you really need me to go through the search function to find every time you've left an original topic? That sounds incredibly time consuming.

Why don't make an entire thread about it. Then you can whine all you want about me.

Sounds like a waste of time. All it'd do is make you look hypocritical, something you've already admitted to and others already see, while making myself out to be blatantly petty by wasting my time looking through 6129 posts over a minor topic. A post count that size would need a more entertaining conclusion than just "topic shift likelihood".
