That's where it becomes a problem for me, cuz I take the piss, in general, in life, online, everywhere.. and if people take it all to heart and take it seriously then I look like a dick, and they go all 'victim' and look for sympathy.

I totally agree. We used to be able to play elimination esque games without any worry of petty fighting.. as we knew if was all just for a laugh. A lot of members however tend to take the forum a bit too seriously to be quite frank and that is where the problem starts. I go to school, have a nice day with mates, go to work and have a nice time with my work colleagues and talk about everything. I then go to my nans' sometimes and go and see how she is. I get home, might do a bit of coursework if I have any and then check my facebook before coming onto TiBB for half an hour or so. It seems like some people are getting up, going to school, coming home and then going straight onto TiBB from 4 o clock until 10 o clock. Fair enough if you do that a few nights a fortnight if you have nothing better to do.. but a big surge of members seem to just do it every night and it's probably quite bad for their social life to be quite honest. These are the people that are constantly creating these petty arguments because they start to see the forum as their lives and that everything people say about them is a personal insult. Hopefully these people will soon realise that their lives are being centred around TiBB and give the forum a little bit of a rest before some of the less obsessive members (I think that's what I mean?) start to get annoyed and leave.
