hmm i'm not sure why you suck. maybe it's been too long. i recall you being oversensitive to some degree in the past, that's about it. lucky you, at least you're going to yale and being more successful than 99.9% of the users here.
unfortunately you owned yourself harder than i ever could by being an obvious, self-destructive cheater at the game of mafia. i mean you really blew that one dude, and it had me giggling. you also really set yourself up for embarrassment with your defensive and self-righteous behavior preceding the "epic failure". at least you have come back and learned to take yourself less seriously, thus saving yourself from permanent unlikeability.
you're all too aware of your major flaw, which is that too often you're a downer. as your friend i never to you about this because i don't want you to think you can't speak your mind to me. it is however depressing that you constantly have all these negative thoughts and how you let it kill your mood and sometimes that of others. at least you have been aware of this and making attempts to be more positive about things.
everyone knows you're a nice person, and you're genuine about it. i think you use it to your advantage though when you have not so nice things to say. when you do, you're amazingly passive aggressive, and that can be an irritating thing to deal with. it showed when you were a mod and faced dissent, and you appeared too dismissive sometimes. at least, well, you really are genuinely nice...most of the time
basically don't over-qualify your opinion. I.E. i have certain political beliefs but i am not super politically educated so i don't talk about them much. but i still have those opinions and i have a basis for them
well i wouldn't completely invalid anyone's beliefs, but all opinions have a certain weight. such a person commenting on what offends someone of a minority is kind of like having steven tyler talk about the nfl.
when you came back to this site after a hiatus awhile ago and you said you were sorry for your past behavior, i wasn't sure what to expect or whether you were being fake. after all you had a history of being extremely mean to other people, and i was high up on that list of people. i often considered if you were "crazy" to say some of the things you did, but you weren't crazy at all, just awfully shallow. frankly i didn't know people could actually be that shallow and believe the things they were saying.
so now you're back, i don't exactly pay a ton of attention but you seem benign, if not just simply bland. still not sure if you are actually apologetic and/or regret some of the things you said and believed. at least you are/were funny on occasion.

I think it's complete BS to invalidate someone's beliefs because they're a "straight cis-gendered white male"., js.
conichan, i don't think it would be too surprised to tell you that you've had a history of being polarizing. you are self aware of that and even regret some of it, but the tendency has been to return to it in another form. the swj phase was particularly bad. as someone who can relate to some minority (g-gay), i have a particular disdain for such an attitude as it is embarrassingly patronizing. you were constantly pushing your beliefs onto others when they actual held very little if any water considering you're a straight cis-gendered white male. you cross the line when you try to dictate what is and isn't offensive or oppressive towards minorities you can't understand what it's like to be like. thankfully, at least that seems to be a thing of the past mostly, and in general you're less polarizing than i can ever remember.

That was incredible and weirdly made me smile as I was reading it *evil grin*
unfortunately for you, you're the first person with whom i have particularly unpalatable gripes.
i've heard people say good things about you since you've been and stopped being a mod, but i have noticed that you've become unfetchingly image obsessed. when you stepped down and made that huge complaint post i was mad, not only because you were ignorant enough to tell everyone i blazed my genitals in the mod chat, but because you were self important enough to believe you were basically too good and professional for everyone else on the team. and then you went on to make a martyr of yourself by suspending prevail. the reason i admitted to wanting to do the same was because i was disgusted with the self-glorification at the expense of the entire mod team. it was the peak of your self aggrandizing, and you deserved no respect at all for it.
you may have grown up a bit on this website, everyone does that, but it was tragic to see you take yourself too seriously forum-wise. at least you have toned done on that a lot since you've been done modding.
