Starting Over

im sorry but really? you just think you have the worst life ever but your really pathetic i have tons of problems too so if you wanna sit here and compare problems and see whos is worst be my guest. it just pisses me off when you say you have a life nobody could survive. also if i get banned for this im sorry but i can have my opinions too

 

Bad idea c: This is better handled in Message if you ask me. Besides, it feels like you are trying to start a flame war. Just ignore ----> Move on.

 

i have never hated you i always thought of you as a friend i always reconized your name and not 1 bad thought came to mind +1 dosent hate you =D

 

There are other people with very hard lives who have never even had access to the Internet. I'm not going to pity you, but I never hated you either.

 

Yes, but you HAVE ACCESS. Some kids don't even know what "an Internet" is and worry whether they will live to tomorrow instead of if Internet people accept them.

 

I’m sorry to hear about your problems.
While I can’t claim to lead a hard life, some friends I have in school can claim and do lead a hard life. I have found that the best way to help my friends is simply to be there for them. This is what I will offer you. If you’re having a bad day and need to rant, rant to me. If you have a problem and want to talk about it, talk to me. If a player or mod is pissing you off, talk and complain to me about it. (You should also wright up a formal complaint if there being rude or breaking another rule.) I promise to hear you out and never get mad, I’ll be there for you if you need someone. I also promise that whatever you tell me is confidential. I will only ever tell someone about a private chat between us if you permit it first. I leave this offer up to you to take advantage of or ignore at your discretion. (For longer conversations please use forum pm. It’s easier to have longer conversations using that instead of in-game pms.)

 

Now this is how you handle a post like this. Thank you for acting very rational and problem-solving....ish.....
I applaud you c:

 

im sorry im not trying to start a flame war it makes me me mad when he says he has the worst life ever. you may have money proplems but i have major medical problems and believe me i rather have money problems than medical problems. im only 14 but if you ever wanna talk just shoot me a pm being young and haveing problems SUCKS know idk ur religion/race but im here if you need me

 

It's a valid offer whenever you need it.

 

Itsa. I really mean this, and at the same time mean no disrespect, nor hatred, or anger, or any of that to you. I simply want to offer you some advice. More of a story, really. I hope that it helps in any way it can.

This is my second time as Moderator. The first time, although many think otherwise, I don't believe I was ready. I have had many problems in my life, of which I wont get into detail here, and I thought thatI could "escape" from them if I could just get a staff position. Why? Because it meant I had a "job," that I was "important." It meant all the things to me that I ever wanted my parents to see in me. Since that wasn't going to happen, I turned to ECC in the hopes that it could be a replacement. But it wasn't. Sure, I could escape into the world of Minecraft and Friends and Waffles for awhile, but there was always the dreaded end, the return of actual life, and I feared it. I spent more and more time on ECC, keeping away from everything as long as I could. But eventually, things became unberable. I couldn't continue both lives. I had to start living one life, My life. So, I resigned. The next few weeks were hard. I spent almost zero time on ECC and never talked to anyone for long on those rare occasions I did show my face to the "old" world as I called it. But, over the next month, I worked on my issues with my parents. I worked on the problems I had with myself. And I worked on the problems I had with "escaping." After that month, and a month isn't even very long, Things only looked up. I had mostly fixed my issues with he real world. And now, when I returned to ECC in full force, its no longer an escape. I come here to relax, not to get away. I no longer fear the time when I must get off, because I no longer fear the reasons why I must get off. There were, once I looked at it, fairly simple solutions to most of my problems, and thus I implemented them into my daily life. And now, I feel more confident in the real world then ever before, because I finally realized that no matter what problems I had, nor what was wrong with me, there would always be good parts to outweigh the bad. Not to mention I feel just as confident as a Staff member now as I do in real life.
I hope that you can realize that no matter what is wrong with anyone, including you, there will always be something good to outweigh whatever may be wrong, and I hope that instead of an Escape, you can, over time, morph ECC into an addition to your daily life rather than a subtraction. If you need a break, take one, the benifits of relaxation over escape are enormous, and I hope you can find the difference.

Good luck itsa, there's a whole world out there, and a whole world in ECC, don't let anyone or anything get in your way of seeing the good parts of either of them. Hope to see you out there buddy.

I don't know why, but this post made me happy.
We need a new reputation system on here. :|

 

Woah...

May I suggest you start by removing these:




It makes it seem like you are proud of these things... which in turn makes it hard to take your post serious. Just a suggestion.
