There has been a lot of trouble in the forums lately, and it's very concerning. I'm not here to express my side, there are just a few things I would like to say. I'm not looking to start a fight, I would just like people to see things from this perspective.
No matter what you do, there is always going to be somebody who does not share your opinion. And eventually you're going to have to accept it, because people have a right to their opinions. There are people who are raised in religions and homes that believe or don't believe in certain things, and sometimes you need to consider that person was raised differently than you were. You are entitled to your opinion. But so are they. No matter what side you are on, you cannot bash or hate other people for the way they were raised, or the religion they believe in. It just isn't fair. You may have your own opinion, but that doesn't mean you can use it to attack others. This is for both sides, no matter which one you support. When somebody feels like their ability to believe what they want is being threatened, it violates their basic personal rights. And sometimes we all need to observe and consider perspectives before we jump to conclusions. The conversations that have been going on here have been making people feel unsafe and personally victimized. I for one believe certain topics should be checked at the door and left unmentioned on the forums, but that is my opinion.
These forums are a place meant to have fun and talk with people like ourselves. They are not meant to be used for attacking each other. We don't need to be angry for something that shouldn't have come up in the first place. Without these forums, there would be no place for us to converse with one another. You can believe whatever you like, but attacking one's beliefs is not okay. People can run their rps the way they want, and there really isn't anything that can be done about it. This has all gotten way out of hand, and it needs to stop. Not just for the sake of one opinion, but the sake of everyone's opinion, which they are rightfully entitled to.
I won't respond to hate I get here. I might not even respond at all. I just needed to get the word out there that this is childish. We are supposed to respect each other, not fight.

Thank you, I'm glad somebody agrees. All this fighting isn't needed, it's only causing stress that shouldn't be here.

Another thing to mention is that some people may have stress in their personal lives and they might snap at the other forumers because they can't handle anything right now yup, I've been there before. But it's best to keep calm and stay away when looking for a fight.

I think everybody is guilty of that. Although sometimes comments are best left unsaid. Sometimes it's best to type the angry message but not press send. It couldn't make you only more angry. Even when people are upset or angry, the feelings of others is something they shouldn't attack just to make themselves feel better.

Yes. Thank you. Hopefully this doesn't spark another conflict, but if it does, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ it won't be your fault

@ glory thank you! I'm glad @ tree if it does, I won't respond to any negativity. I felt like it needed to be said, and I can't control how people react to it. But I'm glad you agree I'm hoping this will be a wake up call and people will be kinder to each other

"When somebody feels like their ability to believe what they want is being threatened, it violates their basic personal rights."
i would just like to point out that sometimes what people believe violates my basic personal rights. and that's just me trying to exist in the world without causing any distress or harm to anybody that isn't myself.
but. okay.

I agree with this so much Thank you I'm so glad so many people agree with it. It's nice to see a lot of us on the same page. I'm hoping that eventually the forums will become a safe, happy place where people don't feel the need to attack each other for their opinions.
