Why is it that so many people on 2+2 drive me insane? OT

Ive noticed that lately whenever I post, someone will say something that I believe to be incorrect, while at the same time calling me stupid, weak tight or "absolutely wrong" that I feel forced to lash out at them (just happened in the MTT forum, I think they censored me!). I can't help myself and I'm having trouble being nice about it either and it happens nonstop lately!

I don't remember having this happen when I was more active a few months ago. By this I mean people being so sure of themselves and so antagosnistic with me when I disagree with something. Okay, its fine to disagree but don't throw in insults while doing so. Also people need to stop randomly throwing around the term "weak tight", its really insulting and often used in really inapproriate places in this forum. Say passive or something instead. If one more person accuses me of being weak tight I will explode.

lol, ok I get out of control sometimes when I feel someone is insulting me, or dismissing my idea in a really arrogant way. That's why I wish people would stop [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

from someone who is as esteemed around here as you are, i find this statement very surprising. just let it go. this forum is no different from a game. when someone is talking turkey, think of it as a bad beat and brush it off.

Are you insane? I have to crush them!! Also it doesnt cost me any money to get emotionally involved!

I almost always find "weak tight" is a compliment, even though the person using it is often trying to make some point about how they always believed poker should be played after reading three small stakes posts and watching Rounders.
