Or maybe no one agrees with you.

Money is made out of paper. Books are made out of paper. Christmas cards, game manuals, receipts, and dozens and dozens of other things. There's nothing wrong with being left with nothing but a piece of paper.
--- Quote ---Ok so if you were on a deserted island would you rather have a video game to play or stare at a losing lottery ticket?

They're both just as useless on a desert island.

Because you didn't create the thread in the spirit of discussion, and you are refusing to even consider the other side.
--- Quote ---Isn't this the guy that registered the same year as oldgamerz yet oldgamerz has 10x as much engagement as you?

Who cares about engagement, other than you? These kinds of judgmental topics are exactly the kind of things that keep people away from our community and stops us from growing.
--- Quote ---Not to mention he has made good posts with tons of worthy debates and you haven't. And probably never will.
--- End quote ---
That is debatable. And I'd rather someone not create a thread rather than create some of the ones I've seen floating around. Again, because, it's probably keep more people away than creating actual community growth.

ok that statement is just plain dumb, people sometimes pay $25USD for that sheet of paper. this forum is as bad as that mod the sims forum where EVERY SINGLE post I make gets 4-8 disagrees by people who don't even contribute to the conversation and it's about SIM's for God sake, I must live in a different world than everyone else, either that or everyone thinks I'm a dick in this world who never even met me, Your insults don't phase me people
I have a HUGE following on Facebook and I don't have a sh!tload of comments telling me how much of a dick I am either or stupid shit like this people actually agree with me on social media unlike in these stupid brain dead forums, where literally the ENTIRE mod the sims forum is against me except for the actual contributors
I rather spend $25 on a N64 box that some lottery ticket that just reminded me how much fun I had losing my money and getting dissipointed, People buy? fuck I lost, People buy Fuck I lost,
oldgamerz:
for those who do not know I'm on your side and I'm trying to give you good advice, that you can actually benefit from, I don't care about your habits I am not trying to control you I only am trying to give you some free financial counseling, stop buying lottery tickets, that is the best advice any Financial counselor can give you.
If you win the lottery more power to you, but, stop running your credit cards up to the max because then you need to pay 1000's in interest and then complain you are in debt, enjoy your life, learn to win, what I am telling you is good advice, when I say stop playing the lottery,
Do I benefit from this thread absolutely not but if you just listen to me YOU WILL :-\
Cartagia:
No one asked for your advice. You don't know us, you don't know our spending habits. Like telly, I don't buy lottery tickets. Get off of your high horse and let people live their lives.
EDIT: If you want to actually discus the pros and cons of spending money on lottery tickets, etc. vs other things, that's fine, but that isn't what you are doing. You came in with a judgmental attitude that you have only doubled down on.

Ive seen plenty of "newbie" badges create an account just to reply to an oldgamerz post. Dozens. His posts that are less controversial garner some of the most replies I've seen. All of which constructive. I have tangibly seen it. But one post you disagree with and now it's lets bully oldgamerz and name call. Disagreeing is fine. "Lunatics" is an attack and has no place here.
