(and a bit off topic, people on this site don't like me, back then i was starting out in mugen and i just got hate, i tried to have a different persona, but people want me to be like chuchoryu, small people give me feedback and i use them and update my stuff but it's not enough, people just like crapping on me for some reason instead of trying out my work and giving feedback for me to improve. i can't be the best out of no where and i know people have their favorite creators, i just like for people to just relax and be respectful with me, unlike chuchoryu i use feedback and don't steal peoples work, i always credit people when i make something and never ran away from feedback, it's been 10 years and I'm still not at the level i want to be but i always keep trying, i don't really care if people don't like my stuff, but there is a difference between not liking someones stuff and being disrespectful, like people would rather be ignorant to me instead of giving feedback, there might be stuff i don't catch but that don't mean that if one thing is bad then everything is.)

like i am helping someone and he is not paying me, just because we are cool together and he never disrespects me, I'm helping him with his games and he is helping me with my game with testing things out.

and also i did notice that no one will play a game if the game is not pots style.

wonder what would happen if I wrote the schizopost about Jin being poorly written. I really fucking do. If I wrote all of that, y'all would've jumped on it like the pack of rabid dogs you are.

Well, if you insist...

I would really recommend you to take a second and try and view this whole situation as an impartial observer. Because these last two posts (and the associated profile changes) really ain't it, chief.

This all began with an extremely benign post by Mgbenz, wherein he lamented what he perceived to be the derailing of Jin's character arc and his apprehension about the direction Tekken 8 seems to be taking him, given past events. This is not, in any sense of the (made-up) word, a "schizopost". It is an utterly benign personal opinion that one is free to agree or disagree with. It certainly doesn't warrant a reply filled with outsized bile and demands that Mgbenz should abandon his investment in a story that has been built up for nearly 3 decades—a reply that doesn't even at all engage with the content of the post or the arguments made therein, but takes offense at the very notion that one could have feelings about this kind of thing at all. Beyond the sheer incoherence and misplaced outrage this reply contains, it simply does not add anything useful in the context of the wider conversation about this game—and is, as such, a genuinely puzzling reply.

Everyone's reaction to such a reply were therefore pretty much about as one could expect: confusion, mixed with criticism over the misplaced anger. Some of the people responding even have personal experience with getting too heated in discussions about fighting games on this very forum, and have suffered lengthy bans for incidents where things got out of hand. So they know a thing or two about what is and isn't normal, polite conversation, and what is an outsized reaction based on the most mild of discussions.

There is no grand conspiracy of turncoats ready to pounce on you with knives out—and, in assuming there is one, you are giving yourself undue importance and attention as the center of the universe of this little community. Again, try to take a look at this situation out of context: this is not a situation where someone is getting special treatment and someone else isn't. The context of what has been posted matters, and everything follows from that.

Trying to make a martyr of yourself won't lead to anything pleasant, I assure you of that.
