*shrug* I gave it my best shot. I never said it was original, and well, as long as we're talking about being passive-aggressive...
I never said my original post was constructive, and I stand by my assessment of these kind of posts.
As for the fact that you think I'm passive-aggressive, rats. I thought I was being outright agressive, but attempting to be polite. But if that's the way you want to label it, go for it. My feelings aren't hurt.
Anyway, you said:
You absolutely have the right to say "I hate it when Y happens in fandom." When Y="someone discussing something boring to me in public when I think they should send it privately to every individual who might benefit from it, or just shut the heck up" and the way you choose to say it is to do so publically in a discussion forum, instead of sending it privately to the person who's annoying you, you rather undercut your own case. ________________________
How does that work? My point was to not have the same people rehash the same old things publicly ad infinitum, and as far as I know, this is the first time I've posted anything about this publicly. If it turns out to be the case that the point I'm making pops up every other week by the same people elsewhere, well, I'll admit your point.
