All good points. o-o
The ranting does help, even if you just delete it. I often rant with friend. =D
It really is amazing how people can be so lazy (and I call it lazy because the main excuse I get is; "You're thread was too long! I shouldn't have to read all that." Maybe but you could at least read the numbered rules if nothing else...) is that when you call them out on it, even if politely, they get mad at YOU, as if YOU did something wrong...
It's like; "I'm sorry I wrote a thread questing for something and you didn't have the ability to read the rules, but instead message me showing a blatant disregard to the work I put into my thread to find a partner who likes what I like. I am SO sorry to have you waste my time by ignoring the rules and trying to get me to do stuff I CLEARLY stated I didn't want to do! MY APOLOGIES!"
