So maybe it's less about treating people they way you want to be treated, and more about treating people they way they want to be treated?

Maybe I could get them to fill out an engagement survey.

I should check with my focus group.

[–] Ajen 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Funny, but don't you think it's worth making the distinction?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I don't know, what is the answer that you would want?

[–] Ajen 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

I think it's important to consider other people's perspectives. What about you, would you agree?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I wouldn’t want to force my answer on anyone that hasn’t filled out my engagement survey yet.

Sharing your opinion isn't the same as "forcing your answer." You can't expect other people to treat you the way you want to be treated if you aren't willing to engage in open conversation.

And if this is just a weak attempt at trolling, I'd suggest spending some time on 4chan. They could teach you a thing or two...

I’m just trying to have a friendly conversation with you, there’s absolutely no need to be throwing baseless accusations my way.

It’s behavior like this that is making the internet a hostile place.

[–] Ajen 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

OK buddy, whatever you say.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Did I do something to offend you?

[–] Ajen 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Not at all. I hope something good happens to you today.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Thanks.

I was just checking because you came across as very condescending even though I tried to defuse the situation with some light humor.

I guess I was misreading it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I saw what you were doing and appreciated it.

[–] Ajen 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That was humor? Must have gone over my head, I thought you were being serious.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I knew I should have workshopped that some more, thank you for your feedback.
