Re: MLB 15 The Show Fact Sheet - Gameplay Reveal Scheduled For February 5th on Twitch
Spidey sense is telling me to not even dig this up from several pages ago, but allow me to interpret??
I think what Kehlis (and others) have noticed, aside from you bringing up that you're in your 70s all the time, (and I could be completely wrong about everything to follow so read at your own risk!) is that some people on the boards tend to ask questions (probably in good faith, mind you) and, rather than being grateful that people are taking time to reply to them, they may seem to jump all over the person replying as if the reply was a woefully inadequate effort at a response. I'm not even sure if you (or others) intend it like that, but I think some may see it come off like that. Then the issue is not only does it make the person who replied (in good faith even if they were wrong/had an incomplete answer) feel jilted a bit for even trying to help and other passers-by kinda scoff at the whole situation which can devolve into petty bickering unrelated to the original question that the mods then have to jump in and police. But, again, I could be completely wrong. One thing I might suggest to get a better reaction is to not respond at all to posts that don't quite get at your question or answer the question in exactly the way you'd like--that way it's just less of a hornet's nest so to speak (not that I am trying to censor anyone or that I even care all that much). To quote Michael Scott: "It's a win-win-win situation!"
I think the reason that I even cared to respond (and butt in) is because everyone (well, not everyone really...some people are perpetually good natured and come off that way even on the interwebz) makes a post that they worded it in a way that was harsher than it really needed to be or could easily be misinterpreted intent-wise and so forth. I know I am guilty of toeing that line at times, too (although I really try to add something constructive to each critique and not just be a jerk), so I suppose I identify ever so slightly with the situation.
