    Sorry for not liking the content you post on a platform designed to comment on posts.

    Ok? Nothing about a platform being for communication means you HAD to go out of your way to make a point of your displeasure.

    You asked for specifics, I gave them.

    No I didn’t. I stated things, and asked nothing until I directly asked about how and why you choose your words. I tried to nicely inform you that you made no sense and no one cares.

    To claim this post doesn’t belong still makes no sense.

    I post when I find content I like.

    Cool. I actively look for it on a daily basis. You should try doing that instead of leaving comments that effectively do little more than ask me to find it for you.

    Is it your art? If not do you realize how overreacting you are?

    Obviously not. I credit the original creator and link to their accounts.

    And again, your “feedback” is pointless. I will not heed it.

    I do not like that you commented. You did not have a nice thought to share, and you should have kept it to yourself. There was no “kind” way to comment what you have commented.

    If I can say more to make sure you do not do it again, I will. You may call that “reaction” as oversized as you like.

      I am saying that lovingly and without sarcasm: you are very clearly overreacting. Maybe show that conversation with people you trust and like and get their opinion but you are having an abnormal tantrum.

      Are you having a bad time in life?

        Are you having a bad time in life?

        You’re doing it again, and this one is a lot worse.

        I really, really want you to start considering this stuff as you put your thoughts into words.

        You can’t just suddenly flip to “genuine concern” in an adverserial exchange without it coming off as condescending. In this case it’s even worse because you actually asked about my life.

        You can’t do that in this context without the potential subtext suggesting that you think there’s something fundamentally wrong with someone’s life, mind, or both, and that that allows you to dismiss what they are saying out of hand.

        If you want me to see how I’m going overboard, explain it. Don’t start pretending at being a therapist.

        Why is doing my utmost to modify behaviours I don’t want the people around me to exhibit, “too much”?

          Well yeah, I think I was clear that I disagree with your opinion. Of course I am dismissing it, especially with you giving no other argument than saying it is rude to state my opinion. Disagreeing I do all the time with other people without assuming they have mental issues. We have different tastes in art. What is more natural than that?

          The concern is genuine. You are getting abnormally défensive, angry and paranoid about a post on an image board. Why do you care that much?

            I would like to ask you to note that I’m not asking you to change your opinion.

            But how, where, and whether, you express it.

            I don’t care you that you don’t like what I like.

            I do care that you carry a level of entitlement that makes you think anyone wanted to hear about it.

            You’re not going to change what I or anyone else likes. As you know, that’s subjective.

            The only outcome your comment can possibly have is to publically express your displeasure at something, with entirely subjective grounds. You’re not expressing a concern for some actual rule being violated, but simply whining about how other people don’t like what you like.

            Why is that worth doing?

            It’s like telling someone you don’t like how they breathe. Like, ok? I’m not gonna stop but I guess now I know a thing I do displeases you in some tiny way. Thanks?

              You are worried over people expressing their opinion on a platform designed for it?

              What is the comment section about, in your opinion?

                Yes. You aren’t? We can always be more considerate and thoughtful in how we engage in communication.

                I know people like to express their opinions just for the sake of it.

                But sometimes, an opinion isn’t worth sharing. Or can even be a net-negative, to share.

                This is one of those cases.

                You had a thought, no-one wanted to know about. You served solely yourself by voicing it.

                I said before, that it wasn’t a nice thought. That there was no kind way to express it.

                So you could have just not. This is the stuff I want to you to think about.

                If the only person who benefits or enjoys hearing about a thought you’re having, is you, then it doesn’t need to leave your head. It has already reached the target audience.

                  Why do you post images here then?

                  This is not danbooru, this is a discussion board. You don’t want any discussion? We are only allowed to post praises?

                  But sometimes, an opinion isn’t worth sharing.

                  Likewise for images.

                  If the only person who likes hearing about a thought you’re having, is you, then it doesn’t need to leave your head.

                  You were not the target audience. The community at large was. And it was a failure because no one really chime in in support, but I had no way of knowing before posting.

                    Because I like looking at them, and other people do, too. I don’t think you can put either of these up to debate.

                    You’re allowed to post whatever you like, and so am I. What I am I asking you to do, is think more deeply about what you should post.

                    You were not the target audience. The community at large was.

                    Fine. I’m the target. But there was almost no overlap between your target audience and the receptive audience. That’s my point. Some thoughts aren’t welcome outside your own mind.

                    I had no way of knowing before posting.

                    We really didn’t need to trade words for you to figure this out.
