Default Re: Actually, you *are* tilting

Just because you haven't used words used in a certain way before doesn't mean you have the definitive definition of them and other people with different definitions are wrong.

For what it's worth -- and since you are basing your correct definition so thoroughly purely on what you personally are familiar with -- the psychology forum here has discussed tilt as encompassing far more behavior than your narrow definition describes. If your experience is limiting your definition compared to those of others, perhaps you should read the psychology forum more so at least a little more experience on your part is something you're willing to hold up against all comers as the ultimate arbiter of what terms like these mean. The people with broader definitions of tilt whom you are arguing against have done just that type of reading to broaden their experience. You're overdue and should catch up instead of just arguing.
