the Christmas Pudding? No, it doesn’t ferment.. the alcohol preserves the fruit in it is all and it takes time to develop a good flavour. Yes, only a month.
You said you were losing friends.. I’ve told you what you need to do to address that. What about your personal integrity? Is it ok for you to be a troll? Is that what you want people to remember you for? Go onto some posts as you.. start helping others and feel the positive energy that that can bring you. Trolling is just plain negative.
You don’t understand what I’m saying. You are ALREADY anonymous, here in my shout box. There is no profile, no helping going on, no fixed name to go by.. so replying “anonymously” on people’s posts just makes you more mysterious to people. None of it helps you maintain friendships now does it? As for making a troll post when you want to leave.. that’s kicking sand in the faces of people here who want to help others. So don’t.
It doesn’t. I simply always reply anonymously. So I don’t become well known, and so that once I want to leave, I can make a troll post and be wiped without second thoughts on the mod’s side.
Yes and no.
I do have an alternative identity. Which is revealed to them. Have you seen the amount of shouts on my profile? I attempt to reply as honestly as I can to each one.
My advice still stands.. because being so anonymous and mysterious makes people fear you could be a troll.. so when you hit people’s “soft spots” they may easily assume it is deliberate. Do you see what I’m saying?
It wasn’t because they got confused, it’s because I accidentally hit a soft spot.
It seems like I always find those and hit them accidentally, eventually.
ok. If you’re worried about losing friends on help.com, then let me give you a little advice in the spirit of friendship… first, people get confused easily when you change your name a lot. It doesn’t help maintain a relationship. Second, you need to fill in your profile so that people can understand more about the person they are talking to - you don’t have to give details about your real life, but it helps to have some ideas of the sort of person you are. Third, start helping. Unless you have an alternative identity, I don’t see you doing that? You’ll find it easier to get to know people and engage in conversation. The shoutboxes are clumsy and not ideal for chatting to new friends.. I hope this makes sense to you? Sometimes it’s very difficult to understand what you are trying to say here. That makes it hard work trying to chat with you. Maybe these are reasons people are not engaging with you fully? Now, don’t take any of that the wrong way. It’s positive advice, not criticism.
I’m fine.
This last week has been pretty terrible, and is going to get worse still, as I’ve been granted only 2 out of the 7 days in the week to stay home. That is an unhealthy ratio.
