    I said I've only seen maybe two episodes of Avatar ;__; And I've never seen Korra.

    It's... Probably a big time investment.

    Yup, school's definitely more important, I agree! For the people that loathe school, whether it's elementary, middle, high, or college, I think it's more down to if they don't enjoy it, then it's just going to feel like it goes on forever. However, if they enjoy it, then things like homework are actually fun.

    Yay!

    I dunno, I love college and homework can still be overwhelming and miserable.
    The semesters feel like they go by quicker though.

    This couldn't just be a private conversation? Like, do you want other people to pressure her into watching this?

    Hayabusa has a point. Think about the outcomes.

    Worst case, you incite a peer pressuring mob, which is very rude.
    Best case, it just clutters the forum, which is slightly rude (more so when you call out a moderator whose job is to keep the forum clean).

    You should reconsider publicly prodding people you are not close to.

    The staff doesn't really mind, and these threads aren't that often from me.

    If you think people letting something slide turns it into good behavior... I don't know what to say.

    Just like any other person, if my behavior is a problem, I'll be contacted privately by the staff, and they have never contacted me about these types of threads.

    Let's just drop it.

    If you only acknowledge reprimands from figures who punish you tangibly... Then you will stretch your bad behavior to the limits of the rules, and once you know what you can get away with, you will behave as you wish with impunity regardless of the feelings of others. That is a dangerous way to think.

    Your behavior may be rude whether that particular type of rudeness is punishable under the rules or not. Dropping it here doesn't change the effects of your original act.

    I'm not stretching the limits. However, I don't wish to further continue discussing this.

    Yes, you are. You are not breaking the rules, but you are touching them. These threads are borderline breaking these rules:
    Pay attention to this line: "Please be considerate to all posters here and realize that not everyone shares your points of view or likes the same things you do. Do not incite fights, flame members or harass people."

    Threads like this are harassment (as in "aggressive pressure or intimidation"), and they have the potential to incite mob peer pressure, which can result in fighting and feelings of alienation for the target. Furthermore, this is a call out thread, plain and simple. You think it is okay to do these things because 'you don't mean harm' and 'you don't get warned', but they are pretty close to what is described here.

    That is just where you are extending your behavior to the edge of the rules. When it comes to non-staff, you are even more subversive. Your behavior in this area has been reprimanded as rude and harassing multiple times, such as when you pressured people in public and private alike to become Premium members.

    You should learn from these course corrections. I wonder why you don't?[DOUBLEPOST=1415433233][/DOUBLEPOST]Happy Birthday, Amaury.

    If you don't understand why this keeps happening: Things like this wouldn't happen if you could just admit you might have done something inappropriate, instead of blatantly blowing people off.

    This thread isn't that bad, but your reaction to being questioned about it was. When someone questioned whether it was necessary and if it was rude, you completely shrugged it off. You could have said, 'I don't believe so, but thank you for your concern.' Bonus points for giving your reasons? But you consistently choose not to take people seriously. You mocked their earnest attempts to help you make a prudent decision. When I came in and tried to explain why the question was sensible and should be treated as more than a joke, you said you wanted me to drop it.

    Your attitude towards non-staff is, simply put, arrogant and self-righteous. You are nearly completely unreceptive to critical analysis of your behavior (also known as criticism). You only respond to the stick. Even the smallest questions get turned aside with a 'Because' instead actual introspection. What you don't go 'whatever' or 'because' to, you just plain ignore. If they don't stop after these initial sidesteps, then you try to cast blame on the people critiquing you for the crime of not giving up on making you into a more functional human being.

    It's inevitable that people will get irritated when talking to you is the same as talking to a wall, even if the issue is small.
