Ego

I re-read as well but I disagree with patty re the bit that provoked Luka.

I get why this might have sent you off now, which I hadn't really caught before. Cos language in certain contexts means certain things. Fair enough if you got annoyed.

Thing is, the whole thing has escalated probably cos you should have taken the sort of olive branch baboon was holding out in his long post, but you didn't. I know you again apologised for this later, said you didn't want him to go or anything,, but I would like to know why you didn't just accept what he said. Was there something intrinsically wrong or insulting in it. I've not actually reread that post of his, but will do after posting this. That's why the other thing I wrote got deleted!

Yeah to me it sounded disingenuous and condescending. It rubbed me up the wrong way.

Ok that's fair enough as well

 

[luka]

Ultimately I think he did mean well. But that, I thought the tone was insulting so that's why.

 

[catalog]

I disagree with you, I don't think he was being condescending and disingenuous, I think he was trying to resolve it, but if you see it that way, then I understand why you snapped back. But it's different to the first time, where (from my point of view) you had more of a reason to kick off

Patty's more or less bang on. He's proven himself to be quite perceptive about this sort of thing IMO.

Maybe you're right but you know how it is when you're riled up

Fucking hell! You're hilarious!

 

[luka]

Droid we have come to the end of the line I'm afraid. I don't have any wish to try and communicate with you ever again. I'm blocking you. This has got too silly.

Just give him the benefit of the doubt on this occasion and then if it happens again you know for sure. I feel like it was a genuine peace offering.

I feel like I have made peace with baboon. He might not think so but in my head we are at peace.

 

[luka]

In fact, I'm going to block patty too. He's proved himself to be a wrong un. Cancelled. Can't believe I've never blocked anyone before. Feels so liberating.

 

[catalog]

Well that is good to hear. The problem you've got now is that about ten other people are watching you like a hawk. So just don't get in any scrapes for a couple months. Make the dematerialisation pamphlet. Or do a grime 100 where you go all gooey over Kano.

 

[luka]

They're always watching me. This was happening long before you arrived. It's just baked into the forum. It's how it works.

 

[luka]

I'll be good again, don't worry. Just need to feel happy and appreciated like anybody else.

 

[catalog]

I don't mean about blocking patty by the way, I mean about peace with baboon. But blocking is fine, everyone does it, I'm sure someone even suggested it to you about thirdforms posts, if they annoyed you so much. Blockings no thing, you can just unblock. Everyone's at it

 

[luka]

I really really should have blocked third. For his good as well as mine. Crazy not to. But the trouble is that he says brilliant interesting things sometimes so I didn't want to give up. He's a very cool kid.

 

[catalog]

Yeah so I just don't get it how you can say that and then also say some of the really quite nasty stuff you said to him. Which others probably more than him have taken note of

Remarkably sensitive, for a god.

 

[luka]

To third?

 

[mvuent]
