QotD/Rules Of The Internet
"It's one thing to try to solicit constructive criticism to improve things, but if your first reaction to feedback you don't like is to say 'stop taking things so seriously', then you shouldn't act surprised when people stop taking you seriously. Watch what you wish for, and all that."

Some people take not taking things seriously too seriously.

Everyone takes their part of the internet seriously, especially the people who tell you not to take the internet seriously.

I think really they don't mean not to take the INTERNET seriously. I think really they mean not to take other people's feelings seriously.

This is the Internet I signed up for, and the Internet we should fight to protect.

As the Lady of the Manners has said over at Gothic Charm School:
1. The Internet is not real life.
2. But those are real people on the other side of the monitor, so behave appropriately.

Very true. And it's a big internet (must be hard to vacuum), so if people in one forum don't behave themselves, one can always find another forum where the people do.

The nicer ones tend to be the ones worth hanging out in anyway, IMHO, but that's a subject for another entry.
