This really has to do with the roleplayers on gaia, and I'm sure most of you can relate.
I am not a dramatic person. At all. It's very very rare that I'll be the cause of any type of drama, and it's rare that I'll ever be involved in most drama. I believe gaia is a place for fun. A place to relax and get away from your every day troubles in real life, therefore, I don't like conflict. Gaia is how I escape from drama in my life away from the computer, and when the same crap that goes on in my real life starts happening on the internet...yeah, I get a little pissed off. I mean, I just can't understand people. I haven't had this problem with drama in a LONG time. I've been on this new account for about 100 days and through at least 70 or 80 of those days I haven't had any type of problem until now. I don't know what it is. I don't know why people suddenly have it in their heads that I'm such a terrible person. I'm really not. I like being kind to everyone and treating them with respect as they should be. And it should be a mutual thing, but NO. People are so wrapped up in themselves that they want to act like complete assholes to people who truly don't deserve it. And that doesn't just apply to me, I've seen nice people being put down by the low lives on this site and it sickens me. So why? Why do people do it?
I think the main reason why we do have drama on gaia is because people are so immature they just don't know how to deal with the fact that not everyone is gonna like them. And when they see someone who doesn't they automatically have that urge to belittle them and attack them. When someone doesn't like me, I stop and think about why they possible don't and if I come up with an answer that makes sense, I usually address the issue with a sense of maturity. Like actually asking them why instead of just commenting them on their page telling them how much of an a*****e they are for not liking or agreeing with me. But then again in most cases it's almost never a logical reason, and I usually ignore those. Though recently because of what's going on in my real life I have been guilty of snapping at someone finally. I responded in a rather hateful manner instead of just ignoring it. And I'll admit it was wrong, but what else can I say? Drama brings out the worst in people and when being involved in it you to have consider the fact that maybe the person you're attacking has problems in real life that you couldn't even imagine and maybe...just maybe...you should leave them alone. Anyway, this rant is becoming longer than I expected so...thoughts? comments? I'd really like to know your thoughts on the matter.
