Well, honestly, if you treated others well, even in disagreement, then they probably wouldn't crap on you.  People have a hard time being a jerk to somebody who is being nice and civil.  I think you will have a much more enjoyable experience on this site and in life if you think positively about the people you interact with.

just some food for thought, I suppose.  Feel free to act as you will (within the confines of the rules of course).  I just think you would enjoy your time here more if you didn't have "enemies".

Can't really be nice to people who I know are not on my wave length and would rather see me gone. If you put on a mask of niceness others will as well and what you have in the end is a mess of people who talk nice but brood inside. That's not healthy.

I think keeping up a nice mask for people I loathe is far more damaging to my brain than any verbal abuse can be. Also I don't gain anything from having people be nice to me that I have no connection with whatsoever. People I like and want to connect with I'm nice to by default but what do I gain from playing nice to people I will never have any connection to anyway?


Well, people change or they are different people when you get to know them better.  I know I didn't much care for Carl when I first started on here, but now he is one of my favorite users.
