Nah, Echo. Don't stress about it. You've always been very welcoming and friendly. I honestly can't imagine you being rude to anyone, tbh.I...I wasn’t welcoming? I thought I tried my best to be welcoming and friendly...

I’m sure you were extremely welcoming to most if not every single person here. But unfortunately that wasn’t the case with the community as a whole.I...I wasn’t welcoming? I thought I tried my best to be welcoming and friendly...
I actually didn't join for mafia, oddly enough. I joined because two to three friends were members.Tbh Echo, it's always been like this. There has always been drama and troublesome people. You can ask the members who have been around for about 10 years that back then it was way more drama filled than now. People don't have to have played Zelda to enjoy the community. People like Exlight and Rubik came here for mafia and enjoyed the community enough to stay and I know Ex has now even played a couple of Zelda games and Rubik recently played Zelda 2 with his girlfriend. If you make a welcoming community people will be incentivized to create discussion and also possibly try out the games themselves. But if you try to shut out others under the idea that this is only a Zelda site, then you're just limiting any potential new chances for discussion.
Echo, I don't think anyone would accuse you of not being welcoming.I...I wasn’t welcoming? I thought I tried my best to be welcoming and friendly...
I’m sorry, I guess my post was a little harsh. I just, I love Spirit so much and I guess I got a little mad that she’s not happy anymore. I wanted this site to stay the same. For her and other members. But by only thinking about those couple members, I shut out the rest. Even if I don’t know them very well, I should still try to think of them too.
What you said makes sense. I guess I wasn’t as open and welcoming as I thought. I need to change that right here and now. I am known to be very kind and welcoming, and I need to live up to that.
So, I’m sorry all MarioBoarders and all the people that I insulted in my last post. I want to be friends with you. I think I just wanted to stay with people that I knew and shared the same interests with. But now that I think about it, that must make you very lonely, maybe even more than Spirit. I want this community to be welcoming and friendly, and if everyone else is just going to leave you guys behind, I’ll have to be the one to do it.
So...let’s start over for a second. Welcome to ZD! Nice to meet you, I’m Echo, I hope you enjoy it here. I’m looking forward to meeting you and getting to know what you’re interests are so we can talk about them and grow our relationship! This place started out as a Zelda site, but now it’s mostly just a way to connect with others and become friends!
Let’s not just force ourselves live with the change in Zelda Dungeon, let’s embrace it! Let’s be friends and enjoy each others company. That’s what matters most, right?
Can you try to meme less on threads that are kinda serious? It comes off as really insensitive sometimes.It's the only forum that tastes like mouthwash.
The point I was trying to make was that ZD has its own identity, compared to other forums which are kinda cut & paste.Can you try to meme less on threads that are kinda serious? It comes off as really insensitive sometimes.
We both know what you're doing here.The point I was trying to make was that ZD has its own identity, compared to other forums which are kinda cut & paste.
I was answering the question in the thread title. I feel very bad for those whose friends are leaving the site. It was never my intention to hurt them. And I think you know that too. I think you're assuming bad faith here. We both know what I'm doing here. I'm trying to use humor to make you guys feel better. I'm sorry I tried to help.We both know what you're doing here.
There are people here really upset with people they considered long term friends leaving, so in this case you dropping random comments like these that add literally nothing to the thread are not only really out of place but kinda disrespectful.
Just apologize and try to keep the memes to threads that won't mind it, ok?
I argued that they should've tried to just talk it out whenever something bothered them, but if you're going to prove their point that it wouldn't matter then I don't even know what you expect to happen other than you being chased out of here sooner or later.
Sometimes people don't want things to be made better. Maybe they just need to grieve lost friendships.I was answering the question in the thread title.

Ah, I understand now. Sorry.Sometimes people don't want things to be made better. Maybe they just need to grieve lost friendships.
Trust me. I've been in your spot plenty of times.Ah, I understand now. Sorry.
take it from me, humor has a time and a place, and in certain moments, it's just best not to risk it and save it for a more appropriate timeI was answering the question in the thread title.
