User blog:John Breasly/Stop Asking For the Hardball

Okay, guys, I'm really getting sick of all the crap I get. You'll understand what I mean later in the blog. I was talking with a friend of mine here, and he said something that pretty much summed it up. "I am trying to get people to stop expecting **** from you so then you might not give it " is what he said. It's true. I have people on my case 24/7, and for what? Because they provoke me, and I fight back? Is that why? I find it despicable. I have been singled-out by a certain admin several times the past few weeks, when I haven't even broken a rule. He provokes me into arguing, then turns the whole argument against me to make me the bad guy. But the logic that he uses is just mind-boggling, because it would never work in the real world, only through the safety and security of a moniter. What am I implying? That he's afraid of me? No, not at all. I'm saying there's power behind a computer screen, and some people like to abuse that more than others. Every time I speak my opinions, I have like three people jumping on my case, rage-typing so I finish a sentence when they've finished eight. Now, I want to say, where's the idea of "winning the argument" when they won't even let me rebuttle. It's just a little bit silly if you ask me. But then there are people who go straight to my face, looking for a reaction. And then, they moan and whine about me when I give them a reaction. Here's what my blog means "Stop asking for the hardball, if you're going to moan when it hits you." You ask for a fight, and cry when you get one. You all yell "Wait til John gets here, ugh!" and, personally, it PISSES ME OFF. How would you like it if I screamed, "Oh God, here comes that arguing fool Parax!" You wouldn't, because he's your friend. It's the same idea, just at two different spectrums. The Golden Rule of most societies is "do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Why is that unpracticable when I enter the room?
