I donât really reply much as I donât feel a need to post, but I do check here on a daily basis for updates and stuff.
Oh, I forgot to mention that shitposting and perpetuating off-topic personal attacks and ridicule doesnât help, silly me

I am a habitual lurker, but I am known to comment occasionally when the whim takes me.

Or accusing someone of shit posting when theyâre not also doesnât help. Nor does the constant bickering of devs saying âmy way is better then your wayâ or posting useless uninformative and unhelpfuly pointless posts in development discussion threads whenever someone asks for an explanation of something.

But overall I think RBXDev isnât too hostile of a community, its kinda cozy in here if you donât mind the fact youâre gonna get picked on for not liking magic⌠Yep, cozy community, especially when compared to RT and OT on the normal forums⌠/cringe

Segregation and ganging up on people isnât friendly. If you have beef, keep it private and hopefully you can sort something out that everyone is happy with

A lock isnât really necessary. The thread isnât volatile (it was fine for 40+ posts) â itâs just that a few people made some bad posts. Those posts can be deleted by the posters themselves or a moderator and the topic can remain open in case someone ever has anything valuable to add in the future.

Who do some devs fight each other? Canât we all just be friends? I donât see a reason to get mad on another blender artist or something to that extent.

Okay, letâs test this out haha.
Itâs not because of what people work on haha. People are different, differences can sometimes be opposing, causing conflict.
But when thereâs coflict, it tends to get really nasty a lot of times.
Meh, I havenât seen it get nasty. People just need to take a walk before they smash their keyboard if thatâs the case haha
If I am angry at someone, I usually end up writing 10 different responses while brainstorming the topic. And after each draft I get calmer, then I write a better draft until I am calm enough to write and send a reply that wonât offend. But my first reply is usually a massive roast that I am really tempted to send, just gotta get over that hurdle

People interpret the ways other people treat them differently. And programmers typically donât have many manners, and tend to be very blunt, and are trained to find problems (in arguments, logic, or people). The effect from that training and personality type is to make someone who while they intend no harm, end up hurting peopleâs feelings, and coming across as argumentative.
As for artists, you guys are generally pretty nice socially. Builders I donât know how they fare, but programmers are mostly all jerks. What happens when a Jerk confronts you, and you take it as a personal attack? You reply, refute the attack, they reply back and point out more proof they were right, and it gets ânastyâ. Then people who dislike each other end up hating each other after a few of these conflicts.
Probably why INTJs are such a small percentage of the human population, they are great, but too many in one place == bad

Even in science, programmers/computer scientists have been shown to be hyper-critical compared to their peers from other fields:

Not sure if it came across, but it does highlight the point about misinterpretation, but that post was meant as âhere is the problem in that there was an argument just waiting to happen from the postâ.
I havenât really spoken with ScriptOn, so would be unable to pass judgement.
