Great post. btw, you've done nothing that offended me or that i had to defend myself or call you names about

As long as it is the ideas that are being questioned, I have no problem with people asking questions or challenging my ideas.
The written word can often be misconstrued as we can't pick up the non-verbal communication that most of us rely on to get a feel for what is being said.

I've had some fairly robust discussions with others on here, but have so far been fortunate that it has been the ideas that have been discussed and things have not got personal. (I don't know if I've been blocked though!).

Keep questioning - it's the only way we learn.

I'm pretty much the same buy have a great game I count the blocks 5 so far lol

Not being one of those people that you have offended (at least if you did I can't remember it) I can't really address that issue. However, I think that in a digital world, there are times when text does not translate as well as a face to face interaction, which would be accompanied by body language and more wriggle room for explanation. Just a thought. Having said that, there is always going to be someone who is upset at something done by someone.

Unfortunately, on this site and everywhere else there are no shortage of assholes, you just have to take it with a grain of salt. I've been through it myself. I'm sorry you've had that experience

The downside of a public forum on the internet is that many people with many different opinions, moods, and backgrounds are able to respond. This can result in responses that are less than favorable - or friendly even . You'll never please everyone, no matter what you say - or how you say it.

I do not remember a response on your part that bothered me. What I will say, is sometimes when I am in some specific mind frame, I take things oddly! Sometimes, I write things, that are not ‘spot on,’ ‘cause my mind just responded from somewhere else! My emotions effect what I write, so I must be prepared to get some (adverse) feedback! Which does hurt sometimes...especially if I am needing approval!

Shake it off...move forward. It's the Internet. Someone, somewhere is going to get offended.

Or you could just let them wallow in their self-imposed butt-hurt.
You are not responsible for how others perceive what you say.
Their perceptions are borne of their own agendas.

Ignore those assholes, you asshole ! You can say and think what you like !!
