Annals of a Fallen Angel
My madness
"Being Nice"
...

Ok, I admit it.
I'm an a*****e.
Cryllia chides me for it whenever we see each other in RL.
I'm not nearly this viscious RL.
I'm actually somewhat timid, depending on the topic.

I want to teach, not discourage.
I want to build, not destroy.

I am going to try something, and this is going to be REALLY damned hard.

I'm going to try to be nice. No, this doesn't necessarily mean no 'cussing,' but it does mean I will try to be pleasant, even when I think you're a royal ******** pissant idiot from the lower planes of stupid. I'm going to try not to think of you like that, but think of you like a student in need of information you don't have.

Be patient. This is what we call 'a work in progress.'

I'm tired of that. I want them to learn, not flee in terror.

Perhaps you should try by only pointing out a few of the most glaring problems that someone has made and ignore the lesser ones, and thereby ease them into their own realization of their fault?

Good luck!

I was going to add an emoticon to this post but wasn't sure what would be most appropriate. Fill in the blank, i guess.

I think you will be pleased with this change, Ananel. <3

For what it's worth, I've noticed the change in your manner of interaction. I believe it's actually helping some people. All I can really say is I wish you the best of fortune and that I admire your efforts, both to educate people and to keep the temper in check, I understand how difficult an ascendant sanguine humour can be.

How incredibly arrogant you are!

The truly intelligent man realizes that he can learn from everyone even "a royal ******** pissant idiot from the lower planes of stupid."

It's interesting. There is a subtle movement on Gaia. A handful of the more abrasive educated types are actually attempting to "play nice with the other kiddies". Reagun and Myself amongst them.
