I agree it's pointless.

eta: What I'm telling you is not bullshit. It is simply different to the standards you live by.

Yes we have tough love, but it comes from those who actually do love us. Otherwise it's just criticism.

I'm not lecturing you. This is an open forum as you say. I happen to disagree with your stance in this case and I'm telling you why. I do realize you're not the only one who has the same opinion so these words are not just for you. If they were I'd put them in a PM which is where I think it would have been aproppriate for the issue which started this particular shitstorm to have been discussed. Not on an open forum.

If I thought one of my friends IRL was doing something stupid and felt I couldn't just sit by and watch any longer, I wouldn't go and sprout off my opinion in front of a crowd of people. I'd take them aside and say it quietly to them. My opinion in someone else's personal matters is not anyone else's business but that of the person involved unless they turn around and ask in front of everyone.

What right people have to criticize your actions is exactly why I personally do not share the shitty stuff with people online on an open forum. When you feel shitty already, you don't need someone dumping another load on in front of the masses.

That's all I have to say in this thread.
