Has your outlook on SW changed? If so, in what way?

For me, it's this knee-jerk blocking spree. Some people here use it as a substitute for resolving conflict. And sadly, that's probably why they have so much time available to be here.

I used to give people the benefit of the doubt, that perhaps something I said or did angered them temporarily. That's because I'm a (usually) emotionally mature person. However, I've found this policy to be in vain and out of step with the fact that both my time and friendship have value. Someone who blocks with a hair-trigger has poor impulse control and I don't need a friend like that.

So, a block from someone gets a block from me--no exceptions.

What has changed in the way you look at SW?

@uncalled4 🤔sadly a lot seem too appear to let there sensibilty be offended at a drop of a hat by minor things . i have been saying this for long enough but we have a lot delicate wallflowers on similiar worlds who take offence to easily . do not get me wrong we do our share of obnoxious arseholes on similar worlds and those people should be blocked
