Enjoy the forum.

@Human Mintts how God wired my brain. The contradictions of content in what people say is where they lie. I do want to understand people, just not the way they want me to understand them. Its probably a trauma response from being raised by narcissists.

I also I never said I dont contradict myself.

Context only matters when you are threatened or cirucmstances change opinion. Since we are on a forum and nothing really changes between interactions context here is meaningless.

I dont talk like this IRL, I talk like this when we must be logical.

The forum feeds my spiritual superiority. Only here I Am God.

From the title I first thought someone is leaving again😂

Taking rests from this adds to the healthy relationship.

I enjoy it - I simply wouldn't be here otherwise.

Arguing is fine, so long as I am not so attached to my ideas 'MY IDEAS'. Just an idea - not mine. This helps remaining objective for me.

I actually enjoy when my ego is prodded. There is always, always, always something to be learned. Biggest growth happens for me there. So, I do not shy away from some crabbiness. I just don't return to the forum for a bit. Mostly I just don't read a users reply if I think it will emotionally compromise me. Replying isn't winning. The person who had the last word isn't the winner. There are no winners.

I do not tolerate anyone speaking down on others. Condescension or sly jabs. Overt insults don't rattle me, especially when out of character, because it is just the user at a bad moment in time. They could just be emptying and it isn't really meant to be directional. I feel a lot of pity and sadness they demean themselves with this language. Most people aren't arseholes. Maybe we just caught them on a bad day. But really insidious, twisted jabs disguised as political correctness, or users who are systematically dickheads are not good. Points to a deepset pathological issue.

I suppose I have a different view of the forum because I am a Moderator. 

I have the added Moderator drama that adds to my experience. People take discipline/corporal punishment very personally, despite the objective nature of a lot of issues. The grey areas and murky decisions are the hardest. Many users will never agree with you. So moderating carries a more inherently loaded emotional experience - usually laced with negativity.

I just take the bad feelings and transmute them into something good. Empty it out. 

I like this place full of all you weirdos! Even when I disagree. 

It is all just experience - why should I judge if it is good or bad? It does me no good. I do discern though. EXPERIENCE!

Yes, this is especially true for mods.
