So this has gotten kind of ridiculous, really. I don’t know what happened, or what caused it, but here we are. Now, I’m an accepting, reasonable person who is always trying to see things from other people’s perspectives, so don’t view this as me throwing some kind of “tantrum.” But I feel like the community represented in the general forums has gone from a loving, accepting place where people get along the best I’ve ever seen on any one platform to being a ridiculous mosh pit of attacking other people, attention seeking, and treating sensitive topics with a complete lack of care. I’m not going to go off on anyone specific, but I’m really annoyed with multiple people right now, and honestly I don’t think it’s even worth my time to have to write inevitable paragraphs explaining in detail how obnoxious some of this has become. So if you want to talk to me or anything later, don’t bother finding me on any of the more popular chats, because I won’t be there. And until general gets its crap together, you’re probably only going to see me on this chat. So have a nice life my dudes, because I’m not participating in this.
I hate this too. The "Be The Last Comment Game" and "Artist People Chat" are the only discussions that seem completely drama-free at this point, and it's driving me nuts. Both sides of this argument are acting like jerks and I can't stand it.
I'm sorry for causing all of this.

Right. Those are actually good chats.
There’s also the issue of people antagonizing one another in the current argument. I’m not going to take sides, but I will say that it is fairly irritating to watch people who don’t know some of my irl friends assume things about them and bash them even though I know for a fact that some of them are very hard to make upset like this. What happened to being understanding? What happened to having people explain their reasoning instead of people lashing out for being asked things?
Octane. I know what you're referring to me.
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt anyone.
Octane, I’m sorry if I’m one of the people who you’re annoyed with (since I do have a side in this, too), but if you don’t mind, I think I’m going to do the same thing you are and yeet the fuck out of general chat. I miss the way it was seven months ago, how nice and welcoming it was. I miss the open arms and willingness to help that didn’t seem stale and… wrong.
So… Octane, I really hope we can still be friends. I’m sorry that I played a horrific role in this.
Me too.
I'm sorry you guys.
I'm so sorry.
Actually, I’m referring to multiple people. And yeah, I’m a bit mad at you, shuri, and Emi you haven’t done anything that has upset me, but I’m a bit mad at a lot of people. And if I’m being honest, there are multiple people I could write whole paragraphs about right now, but guess what? I’m not! Because it’s not worth my time :)
OK.
I'm glad you told me straight up.
Thank you.
Can you at least tell me whp I'm hurting.
And how I'm hurting them?
Please?

Ok but I’m starting to feel the exact same way, I’ve been trying to be a happy peacemaker but multiple people are just pissing me off, and I’m trying not to say anything because it’ll make the drama worse
Well, it wasn’t direct at first. And because I still have a bit of trust in you for now, I’m going to tell you straight up. A lot of people have been growing suspicious of your “stories,” as they are becoming oft referred to. Now, it’s the internet, and people stretch the truth often, but I’ve had several people tell me they feel you’re being incredibly attention seeking now. And yes, I fully understand that if you’re going through some shit right now, you have a right to want someone to talk to. But many people , including myself sometimes, feel like you’re somehow trying to guilt trip them. And I personally ignored it because you were always offering to help people, and I believed you to really be a kind person genuinely trying to help others. But now those offers to help others are feeling painfully fake. One person has told me they believe you are pavloving people to associate you with “good things” in order to gain trust and attention. And if this is genuinely false, I am happy and willing to allow you to explain yourself without an army of naive 12 year olds coming to fight for you first. But if I sense bullshit, I will want you my patience with this ongoing “drama” is wearing thin
Yeah.
I didn't want anyone fighting for me.
Nobody is dead, so I can take that.
And I agree with you, my offers to help aren't what they once were. I'm not the person I was. I don't know how I lost it, how I lost the spark I once had. But it's gone. I'm gonna take a break to grieve and get it back.
Sorry, do you mean no one you’ve talked to on notebook is dead, or are you talking about the deaths of certain people in your life? Because it’d be a shame if you caused some big thing for attention by pretending someone in your life died. Because I’ll tell you now, that shit don’t fly
Sorry, do you mean no one you’ve talked to on notebook is dead…
If you think so, I’ll have to respectfully disagree.
I haven't seen drama levels this high since the (faked) suicide on Bakery Story that messed me up for 3 freaking years
Oh shit, has someone on notebook actually died?
Sorry, do you mean no one you’ve talked to on notebook is dead…

Is someone dead?
Sammy H?
Probably Operator?
Sammy H. was the Sammy I'm grieving for.
And Operator did kill himself.
Only Sammy knew why but she's…
Yeah. @Lostboy died too. But it was cancer that killed him, unfortunately.
Oh shit, has someone on notebook actually died?
Yes. But not because of this site.
