Pluses (+) and minuses (−) of this day

[Fifo]

– I fear that Hoodcom will judge me/my answers.
+ I really do appreciate the help though.

Nah no need to fear, but I am impressed with your willingness to respond to this.

Yeah, I thought taking the time to read it and reply to it would be better than ignoring it completely.

Years back you wouldn't have anything to do with things like this, the fact you didn't outright ignore it and are appreciative of any help directed is a nice change. So I am proud of you for it.

I’m honestly ashamed of my asshole behavior back then.

You're never alone, you can easily have friends help.

+ I agree.

[Steo]

Wait, you have ADHD too??

As do I, but I don't let that hold me back either, and it certainly doesn't affect my attitude.

Not everyone likes the same things is what I was trying to say, and I guess we just have to respect their opinions, so long as they're not purposefully telling you that they hate something repeatedly that you like in order to annoy you.

I do know how it feels to be stressed from people asking you to do everything also, I've been there trust me, but I don't think this is a practical solution. A better way to deal with these situations is to have a talk with the person/people you're mad at about how you feel, instead of making it into a public scene time and time again, which clearly has not and will not solve the problem(s). All that's going to do is make people mad at you and make them think you have a bad attitude, which I'm fairly sure is something you don't want.

Seriously though, I have been stressed out running around after everybody many times, but I know that those people appreciate me and would be lost without me. I'm sure it's a similar situation with yourself since you're a sharp individual, they're not just pestering you for no reason, it's because you know things they don't know how to do on their own. I'm not mad or anything, I just feel as if there's a more practical solution instead of ranting about people you're annoyed at, and if you show a little more interest towards other peoples hobbies/interests, then I'm sure they'll have no problem having a chat with you on the subject of your own interests.

I guess that's my 2 cents on the matter, have a nice day.

EDIT: I had you where you're should have been and it just annoyed me.

Understood.

Thanks for the advice.

You’re right.

It’s the same case with me.

[Steo]

Nice! Those are actually really mature responses from you, that's what I like to see.

+ Also, after this problem is solved, can we please go back to being the happy RPC we were where we joke around and have fun? I know, this is a serious topic, but after that, can we please do that? Just like Steo once said, I want a happy Pirate-Community where we can all get along once and like I said before, just be happy and enjoy the forum.

We're just giving Fifo a little advice on what he's doing wrong in case he isn't seeing it is all. Nobody is mad, this great community is as happy as ever.

+ I'm still playing Burnout Paradise Remastered.
+ I got Splinter Cell Chaos Theory for Xbox today, the first of many games I'll be purchasing within the near future.

[The Jonster]

Well I have to say it's quite an improvement to see you handling the criticism much more maturely Fifo.

Having said that I do want to add one thing.

I just get jealous when seeing those who are more successful than me. I keep comparing myself to others.

Don't think of comparing yourself to others, I'd say compare yourself today to how you were yesterday and how you can improve yourself. If you're complaining about how more successful others are than you, it means you feel inferior to them when you really shouldn't think that way.

Now I'm gonna be frank here and give the advice I should have given when you asked me how else to vent. I realise that i made a mistake saying it's not ok to vent, so I apologise for that. What I mean is that while it's fine to vent/complain on occasion if you feel it's absolutely necessary, it's not healthy to be doing it constantly, and especially not on something like a forum such as RPC. I honestly think the best people to talk about this would be someone who's a good listener. I think they could give you some good advice to deal with any stress you might have from anything that's thrown your way, so I'd definitely suggest having a counselor/therapist to help you deal with your anger(?) issues. Ofc it's also ok to talk to your friends who are willing to listen to you when you go through these things!

Having to deal with stress sucks, but we've all been there at some point.

+ While my other laptop isn't working, I'm slowly getting myself used to using my Win10 laptop again. I found a curious discovery today from it: Turns out I can actually go back to Win7, so when I'm ready and all my files are saved, GOODBYE WIN10!

+ Oh, okay then.
CORRECTION: What I meant in my last post where I was talking about the RayWiki thing, I meant people who speak Hungarian, if those people can help by contributing to the Hungarian RayWiki because as I said in that exact post, the Hungarian wiki doesn't have that many articles and as a result also doesn't contain much information at the moment. Because it would be more effective if the people who speak Hungarian got together and contributed to the Hungarian version.

I have been in the same boat When I was younger at my original school. But it is only because of the teacher making the subject not very interesting. I even fell asleep standing up When he was showing us things to Remember. Thank goodness for after school lessons.


+ Using Friday to Stay home and work on something for art.
+ Windy day today.
+ Little sister at school.
- Not for Long though.
+ I do not want to waste this day Since what I will be doing has to take time.

[Aaron]

I had the same problem with my old school's P.E. teacher. He had a really unfriendly nature and I hated P.E. when I was in my old school, but my new school's P.E. teacher is way more friendly and very likeable which is why I now love P.E.

+ Gonna play some games today.

[Steo]

- I'm tired and don't feel great.
+ I got a burnout elite licence in Burnout Paradise yesterday.
- I need to win every single event in the game to get the Elite licence and that's going to take forever.

[Aaron]

+ Huh, great! Glad to hear you're making progress and enjoying the Burnout games!

[Steo]

+ Huh, great! Glad to hear you're making progress and enjoying the Burnout games!

Yeah and I plan to get all the PS2 versions of it, then maybe on Xbox too.

+ I think I also have Burnout Dominator for PSP.

[Fifo]

+ WOO the Rayman survey is at 200 responses!

[Steo]

- Stupidly broke an S8 motherboard when I was drunk the other day by trying to use plastic to dislodge whatever was stuck in the sim tray.

+ I managed to get a good deal on ebay for a replacement.

[Fifo]

+ I’m not even annoyed at how I got exposed in the Something Bothering You thread. I’m not gonna act innocent, for it was all my fault for acting so childishly.

+ I’ve apologized for it.

[R4Y_ANC3L]

+ I am thinking about activating Condition Blue once again.

[Fifo]

– I feel like no amount of apologizing will get me out of this situation.
– I know I’m worthless.

[R4Y_ANC3L]

+ Condition blue is now activated.
+ Might go and continue on work and maybe play some games via dolphin to avoid more hassle.

[Fifo]

+ I’m feeling a lot better now.

[The Jonster]

+ I've set up both nullDC and VirtualJaguar on my computer so I can play the Jaguar R1 and the Dreamcast R2 for myself.
+/- So I ended up housesitting most of the day. In the meantime I started sorting all the files on this computer so I can store the data I want to keep in my USBs.
+ Started working on my online web course again after taking a few days off from it.
