This is defnitely something for everyone to pay attention to... The reason BGDungeon Forums (and the whole site later, but I don't think that's realted) closed was that the forums just got too unruly, insulting, flame-filled, and generally unpleasant that the moderators couldn't keep up with it, and had to close it because they were getting a huge number of consistent complaints... I wouldn't want to see that happen here. *shudder*

Oh, I think we're QUITE a ways away from that, Encard! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif Even with the events of the past week, we're still one of the calmest forum sites out there. I never went to the BGDungeon forums, but we did get a lot of "refugees" from the aftermath over here, and I have heard quite a few horror stories. That's one reason we try to take care of stuff like this ASAP, so it won't degenerate into that. And by "we" I mean all of us. We're all in this together! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no.../xyxthumbs.gif

Something I learned in an anger management class is the 10 second rule. When ever one feels anger towards another for any reason...count slowly backwards from 10 to 1, breathing deeply and slowly. Let rational sink in and weigh your anger and your response against it. More often than not, its not worth replying too any way. If it is ,you can at least respond with a level head.
I have become a much better person using this technique! I find it similar to a "cooling of period" in a microcosmic sense.

or, if that 10 second rule thing doesnt work, hit something soft like a pillow! if you can charge up your anger in your fist, even better! the harder you hit it the more anger is released!

It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury...What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha, ha, ha. And at the center of that injury, wil be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with the energy of the Planet, I will be come a new life form, a new existence. Melding with the Planet, I will cease to exist as I am now. Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every living soul.
