    Hey guys! I hope that you have been enjoying my other forum posts, and of course if you have not seen them, I HIGHLY advise that you do :). This forum post is based around the fact that life is just not fair. I am going to be talking about how nothing is fair unless you make it fair and try and relate it to AEM, as always :)
    Have you ever heard the expression "life in 10% what happens and 90% how you react"? I can agree with this 100% :). Not everyone can control what happens in life, but you can control your reaction to the action. I will guarantee that you never always get what you want and what you expect to happen doesn't happen. Life is just not fair. The only thing that you can now control is how you react. Take for example Christmas (Hanukkah if you are Jewish like me :D). You have asked your parents for a new game and you wake up on the holiday morning and see that you have not received that gift. Now what do you do? All that you can do is react. You can do one of two things... 1- throw a tantrum saying that you are disappointed and wanted something different or 2- say thank you for what you got.
    Now obviously at this current place and time you would chose 2... but is that what you would really chose when you are that person waking up that morning? Most of the time, the answer is no. And I will be honest with you, I have done that as well, and I am sure that a lot of you have done the same thing.
    Now, I am not going to bore you with paragraphs of talk about how to be a better person, but all I am going to say is that you need to think before you do. I am the type of person who hates to get into arguments and I always feel bad leaving the argument upset with the other person, and some of you may be as well. All that you can do is control you own reactions.
    Relating this to AEM, you will NEVER always get what you want. I see players asking for help every time that I enter the server. Does every player get what they want? NO WAY! Is everyone always happy? NO WAY! Is life going to move on? OF COURSE!
    I guess the big picture with this forum post is that I want you guys to not take what you have for granted. I can assure you that you have more than a lot of others have, and you also have all of us :). Remember, AEM is just a big family. No matter how hard things seem to get, staff/players on AEM always seem to cheer me up. I really love this server and the players on it, and I hope that you all do too :).
    That is all for today, I hope that you all enjoyed, and of course, remember to leave you thoughts in the comment section below :).

    Life is unexpected, just as you think things would go left, it goes right.
    Yes things aren't always fair and you may not be able to make it fair, you can't control life and what it throws at you. It's how you handle the situation.
    I agree people would choose 2 until it happens to them, sometimes I question myself.
    "If I can't get what I want then can I please want what I've got"
    We can't want something and get it instantly, Life isn't going to spoon-feed you. Earn it if you want it.

    Players ask for help and staff do their best to provide it but we are only one person, so players have to wait. We're not robots, we can't always have happiness. We need anger, greed, sadness to even us out because we are human. If we didn't have other emotions we can't advance, we wouldn't understand. AEM is indeed a family and family do fight but always make up. Then again not everyone can please one another.

    (Yes it's colorful so It points out some areas and isn't so hard to read)

    Well I have had at least 15-20 people asking for shirts soo... Also, this is a page for constructive criticism... not general rudeness. And how about next time you tell me what you said to me on my youtube channel on here so everyone can see how insensitive you are.

    @riddellian I realize this post was made after we spoke so I won't warn you again, but this is another example of disrespect. You say "no offense" but the post is obviously meant to do just that. Please think more carefully about your words before posting.

    i was asking a general question? just was thinking about doing it myself on my you-tube channel?
    I wanted so see if it actually pays of at a low subscriber channel. Jeez accusations coming of from everywhere where you've got the whole story wrong....
    I wrote no offend so it didn't come across threatening or hurtful but clearly you guys thought otherwise...

    No riddellian it was offensive and it came across to everyone as offensive. Saying no offense is ALWAYS offensive.

    Sorry it came across like the Evan (My bad)
    But can you actually answer my question because I'm really keen on selling t-shirts on my you-tube/twitch channels etc.
    Was it just your subscribers or other fan bases (either IRL or any other social media way)
    Thanks :)
