How has the TSR affected you?

Did you meet someone here, learn something here, or become inspired by TSR?

Personally I have learned to be a lot less hot headed in my replies to people. When a post annoyed me because it seemed stupid, I used to respond in a negative way. TSR (especially the rep system) has helped me to be more considerate.

Edit: But maybe I should just be an a-hole on here, because I got 3 negs for this thread. wtf? dicks!

Its ok to be bigoted, as long as its not bigoted...

Also; anon-posters, without a shadow of a doubt, be trollin'...

A poster said to me that "rep is a matter of life and death" and I said "it's more important than that".

TSR has actually kept me sane during the past couple of weeks, odd as that may sound! I've been feeling pretty ill (just beginning to fade, some people on here know why) and this is literally the only place where there's always something to reply to!

Made loads of friends on here, plus always feel happy when can help someone out!

Especially over past month feel like I've become more a part of the community and that I'm really part of something special :smile:

It's made me realize how awesome I am.

So I stay on here to help out the less awesome.

In the hope to spread the awesomeness, and one day, they too, can be as awesome, if not more.

I love you all.

The others are right. I go and cry in my room when a level 5 negative rep's me.

Ditto. And it's nice having some people to talk to who actually have an interest in education. And not think it's "uncool".

I made a thread about how **** the snow is and my rep has gone through the floor. I'm going in my room and slitting my wrist. :frown:

Really interesting Thread :biggrin:

I think, if I'm honest, TSR hasn't affected me a lot, however, I have found the advice of good, non-trolling TSR users very inciteful, and it's nice to know there's always @ least one person decent enough to talk to on here :tongue:

I also like to help people and join in on discussions I may not have a say in when with my real life Friends, mostly as such issues would never come up, even though it's obvious they affect lots of people :smile:

And it's amusing to see the trolls make such fools of themselves, even if they are just a bunch of idiots who could use an injection of manners :tongue:

lol!!

YOU CARE ABOUT REP!!!

Wow... it seems most people one here are loosers.
