accident I'm sorry was trying to close a DM on mobile
sparx I have left for precisely that reason. People don't like me and seek any opportunity to undermine what I'm trying to do. and with handling stress? you have no idea how stressful my life really is. This is a game and I want it to be an escape, not even more of what I hate
this isn't just about handling criticism. this is constantly trying to persuade people to join my side, only for them not to, run me down, and lose something.
SparxToday at 22:40
As a leader you need to deal with that and not let it get to you.
WrenoToday at 22:41
i wont be coming back since you all have such negative opinions of me now, and although have done for a while, it's now far worse
in honesty I've been a shit leader anyway. I've just happened to get active and clever people into my faction who have made it great
SparxToday at 22:42
Don't you see how pathetic this seems? Shutting down all criticism and being unable to take any constructively. You can't be perfect all the time, nobody expects you to. Likewise, you can't always make the right decisions. That's why there's so many of us, so we can guarantee we make an informed decision.
Running away when it get's difficult make you seem weak.
WrenoToday at 22:43
well then maybe I am
SparxToday at 22:43
However, I understand you feel pressure and we won't be expecting you back.
Thanks for everything you've done for The Empire, we shan't forget your sacrifices.
WrenoToday at 22:43
you mean others
SparxToday at 22:44
I'm serious, you were monumental in assisting it's growth.
WrenoToday at 22:44
how have I been shutting down criticism btw
SparxToday at 22:44
It's a shame you can't handle criticism
WrenoToday at 22:44
that too
SparxToday at 22:44
You can't handle it
WrenoToday at 22:44
well then I shouldn't be a leader
it really is hurting me to have to do this
SparxToday at 22:45
I'm afraid I agree
WrenoToday at 22:45
this community means too much to me
but I can't
SparxToday at 22:45
Then stay as a member/officer
WrenoToday at 22:45
what happened last time I did that?
we lost a faction and they tried to declare war
SparxToday at 22:45
People like you, just because you're criticised doesn't mean your dislikes
Then don't hold positions of power
If you aren't up to it
WrenoToday at 22:46
I was a member in new Zealand
within 2 days it had collapsed
SparxToday at 22:46
new Zealand suffers leadership problems
Smudger was toxic
and couldn't structure leadership well
WrenoToday at 22:47
im sorry for this
it's just been getting to me
i look like a fool
SparxToday at 22:47
I'll be honest and straight, you do
WrenoToday at 22:47
maybe i am if im so incompetent at this
SparxToday at 22:47
Stop blaming yourself
It's pathetic
Accept responsibility and move on
You can't always be right
That's not a problem
Like I said
" you can't always make the right decisions. That's why there's so many of us, so we can guarantee we make an informed decision.
Running away when it get's difficult make you seem weak."
WrenoToday at 22:48
nobody will want me back
i don't even know why I'm still discussing this
SparxToday at 22:49
Everyone wants you back, you're well liked
and you're too stubborn to see it
because you keep blaming yourself
You're not perfect
We don't expect you to be
But you've got to deal with pressure better
If you have exams, focus on them
It's a fucking Minecraft server
It makes fuck all difference in your life
It shouldn't take priority
But as a past-time you should be able to enjoy it
WrenoToday at 22:50
how am I meant to enjoy it when im breaking under the pressure
i just want to build a cool country with other countries in the world, not have to constantly be fighting for the factions survival
SparxToday at 22:51
Then don't be on all the time
It should be obvious
WrenoToday at 22:51
i can't anyway
SparxToday at 22:51
Manage your priorities
You aren't a sole leader
WrenoToday at 22:52
and if I go inactive or semi inactive people would just hate me even more
SparxToday at 22:52
There's like 10 of us
WrenoToday at 22:52
"why is this guy leading? he never comes on"
SparxToday at 22:52
People won't hate you for being inactive if you do well while on
WrenoToday at 22:52
etc etc
SparxToday at 22:52
You need well trusted officers
which help you lead
WrenoToday at 22:52
i only trust harify
SparxToday at 22:52
You can just be a figure head if you want
You can be the guy that settles the disputes of officers
WrenoToday at 22:53
epic is a wild card and bob is dangerous with his computing skills and hacked client
SparxToday at 22:53
It shouldn't be a big deal to lead
WrenoToday at 22:53
harify is the only one I trust
anyway why do you care?
SparxToday at 22:54
Because I'm mixed on whether you're good for the Empire
and if you're putting up so much resistance, what's the point?
You are well liked
stop being a stubborn cunt
WrenoToday at 22:54
well I'm clearly just being a detriment though
SparxToday at 22:54
Making mistakes won't make people hate you
WrenoToday at 22:54
people don't agree with what I'm saying and don't listen to it
SparxToday at 22:55
What people? Officers, other leaders?
We have a leadership structure for a reason
WrenoToday at 22:55
why does that matter if people are going to leave the faction anyway
and by the looks of things bat will be disbanded and I'll be the only one left
