a) because they can, and b) because you continue to acknowledge it upsets you.

I ignore it most of the time. on the other hand, it feels wrong to just let someone tell me to get the fuck off the board and just not say anything. - loosilu Nov 5, 12:07 22
- Speaking as someone who has had multiple experiences of spats with you... - Trish Nov 5, 12:27 2
  - thanks. all of this being said, there's a difference between fights (which I am not interested in any more) and people - loosilu Nov 5, 12:32 1
    - Well you know the saying about winning arguments on the internet... -- nm - Shaun of the Dead Nov 5, 12:34
- To your IM: Not when you know that's exactly what they want. You know who your main antagonists are. Ignore them. -- nm - TWuG Nov 5, 12:08 18
  - I feel like I'm letting them get away with it, then. I honestly don't know what is right. - loosilu Nov 5, 12:09 17
    - To put it another way, if someone talked to a friend of mine that way, I'd rip them a new one. That's the right thing to do. -- nm - loosilu Nov 5, 12:10 16
      - Except here you know it just feeds the pattern of abuse. They abuse you *because* you react. Stop reacting. -- nm - TWuG Nov 5, 12:12 15
        
        they do it regardless of how i react. In spite of what some people claim, I hardly ever respond. -- nm - loosilu Nov 5, 12:13 13
        
        plus, this implies that it is all my fault, which is bullshit. -- nm - loosilu Nov 5, 12:14 12
        
        I think it implies it's in your control, not that it's your fault. -- nm - mara Nov 5, 12:15 11
        
        *ding* -- nm - TWuG Nov 5, 12:18 1
        
        You know, I step up - loosilu Nov 5, 12:19
        
        It's equally in control of the antagonists. I would *love* it - loosilu Nov 5, 12:17 8
        
        you can't control other people, you can control yourself. -- nm - Andie Nov 5, 12:18 7
        
        not the point. *sigh* -- nm - loosilu Nov 5, 12:20 6
        
        yes. it is. don't perpetuate it. -- nm - Andie Nov 5, 12:20 5
        
        what I am trying to understand - loosilu Nov 5, 12:22 3
        
        Some do, some don't. TT isn't a BS-proof. For example: Vermin still posts. - musubi Nov 5, 12:24 2

        small size test. - Andie Nov 5, 12:32
        
        I'm shriiiiinkiiiiiing! (nm) - musubi Nov 5, 12:22
