You guys should check out #guiltforge, it's like a zoo; You can watch different sorts of examples of hyper-sensitivity there.

As for myself - No, I don't really mind if someone makes fun of me or tries to make my day a pain. Sure, I could probably get a bit worked up but as soon as I close irc or a forum it goes away in a second. The internet is the only place you could get away with pretty much anything and that's the way I use it.
Guiltforge isn't exactly hyper-sensitive, it's just that they have a strange mixture of claustrophobia and xenophobia, meaning that they are afraid to come out and accept more people in their ranks. They are overall pretty nice folks though.

The only online encounters that really affected me, was anything to do with Legion. I still carry around that annoyed hatred. Nowadays, since the left GW, I've put the whole Legion thing on a funny-retrospectively platter.
I'm high-fiving this one, Dudesoft. Legion was pretty much my arch-nemesis back in the day but nowadays I'm having a whale of a time.

I feel the usual anger, etc. about people online as far as stupidity and BEING HORRIBLE PEOPLE goes or whatever, but it's rare that I get sad or anything over the internet.  I mean, when I read something that makes me mad, I usually share it with one of my friends and we just sort of laugh at it at that point.  The only time I can really say the internet makes me FEEL DEPRESSED or anything like that would be if I was already in that mood and it just makes it worse.  The internet's never really made me that way though, I don't see how people are so uptight that it does make them that way!  Of course sometimes people really are legitimately bullied or harassed and should feel sad I guess, but a lot of times this isn't what is happening.

dont link xkcd in your posts guys. thats dumb and stupid.

Actually, I found the "effect" link quite awesome.

Either way, I rarely let anything that is said on the internet bother me. Exceptions are when
I'm mizundaztood. This is especially so when in an argument.

Meh. I think internet madness isn't really worth getting heated over.
The only thing dumber than an argument on the Internet is the same argument in real life.

 few years ago I used to be a bit sensitive over trivial shit. I mean not really over randomirc comments or whatever but with e-friends. I don't really give a shit anymore, got more important things to worry about than whether some e-person thinks I'm cool or thinks I'm jewish or something. If someone says something stupid I won;t get angry at them, I'll just think they're stupid, I mean yah I'm only human so I guess some stupid things can get me angry, but only if they're really offensively stupid like "pedophiles are like homosexuals and should be accepted" or "war on drugs is a successful strategy", but then some people are just harmless idiots and I don't care enough to let it get to me.

I get annoyed and often a little angry at idiots I meet on the internet, particularly in forums and online games. However, once I turn off my computer, I've pretty much forgotten about it. I've never let anyone's words on the internet ruin my day, because I guess I'm just used to being surrounded by idiots and just shrug it off after a while.

I think the only time I got a little sad was when a good e-friend of mine had this terrible mood-change that lasted a month, and they basically told me that they don't care about talking to me because I'm just a guy on the internet and our friendship is pointless. At the time, I was kind of young and found it shocking how people don't take the time to realise that there are OTHER PEOPLE on the other side of the internet. But hey, after settling in more, I realised that most people are basically like that and you can't really treat conversations here like conversations in real life.

I do appreciate one thing of this aspect, and that is the lack of hypocrisy. On the internet, people are more likely to tell you that they hate you or your work, as opposed to most people who couldn't tell you that in real life. I guess, despite the lack of consideration for human feelings, I also like honesty.
The only thing that concerns me is the need to be nasty just because you visualize a person as nothing more than a size 8 font on your screen. But, I've learned to care less about it.

I think I remember being around when that post was made, though I didn't know who legion was I thought it was brilliant.  Oh, and that's who TFT is?  <3333 he's like my idol.  Sort of.

As for sensitivity on the internet, I don't really get it, I mean it is the internet.  Although certain people on #gamingw are so retarded it's kind of cute.

I think TFT got every GWer banned from Ghostlight/Township for that post. It's not even bad but Legion exploded

I never got banned.  (Yes I joined Ghostlight - Legion and others that left GW really liked Hero's Realm.  I followed my internet fans.) 

Now I'm an admin at RMN.

One time Brickroad was really mean to me on IRC and I broke down in tears and my girlfriend had to console me until I cried myself to sleep.  This actually happened and when I told him about it later he teased me and told me to go and cry about it some more.

Curiously Brickroad left the internet on about the same day he got his first serious girlfriend!

Otherwise no I don't usually get too worked up about the internet because jesus christ people are dicks online :(​  You just have to ignore it I guess.  I don't really understand why people need to be so rude though!

I didn't get banned either! (I did get my mod status removed but mainly for POSTING LEGION COSPLAY PICTURES)

Also the Ghostlight guys are still around sans Legion (huge rift between them) and they're actually pretty great.

its also pretty dumb/stupid to impose your arbitrary standards for shit on other people!!!!!  its not a very good comic but i hardly think it's the same as like... a ebaum's world image or something.

I'm interested in knowing what happened there. Legion's a pretty shitty person but I still fucking want backstage II.

maladroithim, what did he say to you? i have to know!!!!!!

Also most of the time stuff doesn't bother me, but when some guy posted a video about mkkmypet recently, I got really, really mad. Most of the time I blow this stuff off or think it's funny, but this is disgusting and horrible and this guy is a real piece of shit. Everything is wrong with this person. He's sexualizing a twelve year old. He's a sexist and is targeting her because she's a girl. He thinks this is funny. haoeirthaoerithaoierthoa most of these gamesmasterjasper guys I just find kind of dumb, but I think this guy is garbage.
