One thing that is a shame is that once a person hits the “ignore” button, they close off communication. While this is certainly justified for stalkers and mean-spirited people, it eliminates the chance for newbies to apologize and explain, not to mention learn why the person was accidentally offended. Maybe for the first few days you could issue an emoticon to those of us who are learning. Not sure how to draw the face, “I am new, harmless and stupid. Teach me please.” Thanks again.
With all due respect West69 it doesn't take much to realise whether you have been insulting or not it requires you to think “How could this be interpreted?” before actually typing it. If it has the potential to offend people then don't.
Personally i have very little patience for people that are insulting. I will usually say whether I am offended however. When it comes to the point where my tolerance is gone is where i press ignore on someone.
Being new is NEVER an excuse in my opinion we are all new at one point but that doesn't mean we are too stupid to think anyone with a little experience in chatting realises that things they can say can and will be misinterpreted. So do not try it.
Ultimately for me though if i barely know the person it comes down to this …
1. They dont know me, I know me.
2. If they want to judge thats their issue not mine.
3. I dont have to tolerate anything if i dont have to.
4. This is supposed to be fun if its not I can log off or ignore the person.
5. Text on the screen is just that. Nothing more.I think you might have misinterpreted my questions. I have NEVER been in a chat room like this. My problem was not knowing the mechanics of the game. I would never intentionally break a “standard of practice” out of insensitivity or to offend someone. Never-the-less, your comments are well-founded and helpful. Thank you.
text on screen just isnt text words can :
