Strengthen my belief in people doing things for a form of self benefit only. :)

It's to easily to think people are narrow minded, thus making it hard to try and be more opened minded.

I second this, but replace "good" with "annoying".

So I guess I'm not really seconding this at all.

Also, Dr. Who is fuckin' awesome.

That nobody bothers to read links but if you post a thread without a link you get tarred and feathered.

it's that nobody how opinionated you are, there's always somebody worse.
LOL my first thought was very similar, literally "no matter how reasonable, someone will oppose you."

Not quite the same, but down the line of opinions.

That if Valve comes up negatively in a conversation, it's best to turn the other way in fear of an upcoming flame war.

No matter how much a forum/thread says they are fair, civil, and reasonable if they are on the internet...they are not.

it's that a lot of the people on here are idiots disguised as geniuses, who think that they're right because they can type entire paragraphs of shit that equals nothing because it's a bunch of huge "look at me I'm smart" words that tend to have little relevance to the conversation at hand, and then go on a mod rage (reporting you, then telling their friends to report you) because you point out everything that they said is wrong, and then say that what they said is full of shit.

How to type a little better than before.

Honestly, before I joined the Escapist I never really bothered to punctuate.

No matter how much the escapist, my blog, and my friends tell me that gamers are intelligent, polite, cultured people (and no matter how much I want to believe it), one match of Halo 3 or Black Ops reminds me of the majority... sad face

Hippies learned how to work computers, but don't learn anything while operating them.

The ReCAPTCHA thing can be a ***** at times. Also, there can never be enough zombie or pony threads on a forum.

It's taught me that sometimes I don't have anything to say about a subject. I usually always chip in my two cents, but I've left threads without writing a letter because sometimes I just don't want to even get involved in what's being discussed even if the topic seemed interesting at first.
