Do you guys feel the same
No. Frankly, if the biggest excitement of my life revolved around a computer game--any computer game--I'd be seriously concerned.

Where do i say it's the biggest excitement of my life???

You might be reading too far into it

You wrote over 4 000 post here and tell me my life revolve around a computer???

It's always easier to blame others than look into yourself.

OK, let me rephrase it then if you can't make the obvious connection: if my life is such that I can't wait for a computer game to be released, then I'd be seriously concerned. Better?

No need to answer, this is my opinion in response to your question and I stand by it.

I think you mean: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...21#post1176621

But at what point does passion become obsession? The line is fine.

BTW, you seem to be taking my opinion personally - you asked if others felt the same as you and I wrote that I would be concerned if I did. Nothing more to read into it. Just a differing opinion, and one every bit as valid as yours.

Méo sees that his light hearted attempt to exagerate his angst about having to wait wasnt seen for what it was meant to be so he learned a valuable lesson not to ask if others share his feelings about something or someone may not resist making a rude comment.

Don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to it too, but I'm not obsessing about it like some here seem to be. That's fine, it's their life, much like it's my life not to obsess about it. Berating me for that is not very cool mate. Reread my post #20.
JScones, you could have resisted the urge to say it the way you did. if you are honest with yourself you will see where there was no need to take the shot, especially when its directed at a new member who just joined the site and is obviously very excited about the game.

i think we can all remember the old saying "if you have nothing nice to say then its sometimes better to say nothing at all"

But do what you like man.
Méo did use the crying smiley but there still was no cause to take that literally, thank you for standing up for a new member


Now that all 3 of you have expressed your opinions on this, lets move on please.

thank you

@JScones.
We can use the phrase "I cant wait" to express anticipation for anything (no matter how beig or small) without it nessecarily translating as being the most exciting prospect in our lives.
He is just saying he is looking forward to SHV it (as many of us are.)

I understand your opinion perfectly, but you could easily have worded it without insinuating that the guy has no life.

Not very cool mate.

Thanks JU, i've always liked your comments (especially those on wolfpacks )

About the crying smiley i didn't know it had to be taken seriously.

they usually arent, they are there to add humor or convey emotion depending on how they are used.
