Compared to what I was replying to I am. Why aren't you hassling him as
well?

I only think something is valid if it fits my definition of something
that is valid? Well, duh. To repeat myself, I only think complaints are
valid if people describe what's wrong with something rather than just
saying "this is bad" and "this is worse."

So you're angry because of ascii art?

So you're angry because I don't like roleplaying? This is a pretty good
example of a complaint that I don't consider valid.

Why exactly are you so angry?
