I want to add it's telling that we have this discussion at a time when everyone here talks about these tron-related gossip blogs, but the one everyone of us seems to dislike is, from what I conclude, itself a result of that gossip (sorry if that's redundant, but I just saw Phytotron's post when I clicked the "submit"-button).

I don't feel like he's being overdramatic, rather expressing his past experiences metaphorically. I really don't see how you can overdramatize something that is already a serious issue.
From an artistic standpoint, it's way over the top. This is one of those cases where the message get's lost in the medium. My comment is about the video's artistic merits, not the content.

Maybe this whole topic isn't familiar enough to me. Where I come from I've never seen any cyber-bullying. I do have seen people (good friends too) getting bullied in school and afterwards, and that still bothers me.
I've always kept the internet separated from my feelings as well as my life. I probably underestimate this whole topic due to my lacking experience with it, so I won't start discussing anything. I will handle this topic more carefully in the future. Maybe it'll make more sense to me one day.
Nice, but I never said you did. :)

I assume you're referring to me because of the reoccurring grudge you have against me. I have no problem admitting I'm not perfect, Phytotron. I joke around a lot, and to most people who actually know me on a personal level, know that I usually have good intentions. Yes, I've said things in the past that can be considered "cyber bullying". Learning from my mistakes does not make me a hypocrite, though.

Well, an artistic standpoint is very subjective. Just knowing your personality from over the years, I thought you would elaborate more on the topic.

I think this is the part where I keep talking myself deeper into the shit. Next thing would be an apology-topic in a week's time.

All this doesn't bother me that much 'cause I never treated anyone badly, nor did I create that gossip-site. I'll live a silent Arma-life from now on, I'm not made for discussions like these.
Edit: Wait, who are you referring to Phyto?

You know you've done a damn hell lot more than that. You've engaged in outright malicious activities, against not only myself, but several others, others' forums, and this forum. And your little act now of only ever posting on these forums in the middle of "drama" threads and pretending to be some kind of righteous, compassionate, mature, above-it-all, reasonable mediator does nothing to erase those past actions. In the past three-plus years you have failed to own up, take responsibility, express regret, or do anything to make amends for said behavior and actions. That is not "learning from [your] mistakes." Indeed, I believe this current act of yours is not only insincere but itself just another form of "trolling."

That's weird, because I've made amends with most of the people that I've hurt. If you can name someone other than yourself who still has a grudge against me, please do. When I think about it, you're the only one I know still harboring major ill feelings towards me. I've actually tried talking to your privately in PM to resolve your issues with me. In your mind, you see me as this evil viscous person with no conscience. Unfortunately Phytotron, you don't know me nor do you deserve to get to know me. Until you can talk to me with a clear and neutral mind, I don't see how your grudge against me will ever stop. I also want you to remember that you've not been Mr.Innocent yourself, so please do take that into consideration before you continue your prolonged grudge with me. If you choose to reply, I hope it's sincere and not wrapped with your self-evident hatred towards me.

Predictable response still refusing to own up to your actions, deflecting, and making false accusations. Insincerity and dishonesty are all you know, and likely all you'll ever know. You're irredeemable.

I'm sure most would disagree, but you're entitled to your own opinion. Could you please tell me what I haven't owned up to? I really would like to settle this so we can stop having these recurring discussions. If you feel your personal vendetta against me is that problematic, may I recommend you stop acknowledging me in your post. I think that's a perfect way to deal with your situation based on what you've told me.

In case he does tell you that here, remember you mustn't call it cyber-bullying afterwards, since you asked for it. :twisted:

You still never made amends with me, im still really really sad about our confrontation.

Yes Taz is a horrible person, and should be removed from the Tron forums, he instigates way to much stuff, and frankly, im done with it.
