People on these forums care WAY too much. Sometimes over larger things like constant spamming or what have you which I can understand getting a wee bit annoyed it but sometimes over some REALLY trivial things too. For example I have been browsing the forums on and off today and I'd say that 1 in every 4 posts consists of people trying to convince somebody else that they aren't as stupid as someone is calling them. These often include words like "Actually","If" and "Bothered". People are picking up on pety technicalities and twisting what other people say to begin these insane little fights between people who I bet off of the forums they couldn't care less about.

These fights are ALWAYS started over people reading one thing and taking words too literaly. Often these are just mistakes or aren't even vital to the sentence but they make a huge deal over it for no reason. Why is it that these people bother? I mean in all seriousness can't they just let the little things drop without pointing them out and starting pety fights over it that end up disproportionately large compared to the original problem. It just bothers me ever so slightly that some people actually have the time in their lives to make such a fuss of something so small.

I know what you mean.
A cynical type could point out irony, but I'm not going to bother, because that in itself would be ironic, ad infinitum.

But you're right, y'know.
Which makes a pleasant change, I s'ppose.

I am just posing a question mate. I find it pitiable that somepeople do care about the things I have mentioned and if that makes me a hypocrite then that's what I am but that doesn't mean that my post isn't valid.
