LOL "a real psychologist." Dude, most professionals only maintain professionalism in atmospheres where they feel like they can't get away with being who they really are. The only 10% that don't are the super type-a **** people that are so up-tight they are ashamed of others seeing their bare feet.
Most of my graduating under-grad class cohort went on to become medical doctors. I know exactly which ones I would be confident in during precarious situations and which ones were the ones throwing up on the frat house's carpet at 3 AM twice a month. I also know they were all capable of putting on nice facades.
I used to quote that you can tell a person's character by how they behave when no one is watching. I've since learned that you can tell a person's character by how he treats and acts toward others. That's about all you really have and should work with.
I agree with everything you just said. And I assume you were... defending me? Because I surely am not the one who behaved badly "when no one was watching." Rather, I called out someone for telling me to leave the game forever for having a complaint. Or I suppose you were just making a general comment about the nature of people and the internet?
Just a retort. Not to attack or defend, but relevant from my perspective. Although while I do believe that if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck then indeed it is likely a duck, replacing a duck with psychologist and the walking and talking with rhetoric on the internet is probably pretty fallible.
Internet forums discussions are often just as bad as in person. Sometimes I think I can grow my own brain more by bouncing my ideas off of myself in front of the bathroom mirror. People want to be heard. People want to feel special and superior.
I used to want to be smarter. Now I just want to stop existing. I used to have faith in people. Now I don't.
I hope the HK rework doesn't suck.
