Mindfulness isn't defenseless. He knows how to come back with memes full blast and has pwned DWV without all of you treating him like a pet.

Maybe you're being intentionally obtuse.

Dude was talking about getting prescription drugs to help with anxiety, along with everybody else, and DWV's response was to single him out and say quit searching for new things to put in your body. As much as he claims it was, it wasn't just him making an observation because it at no point matches the context of the conversation. It was him being mean spirited and a dick. Unless he's just tone deaf.

We did the same thing when he started saying that **** to Elph comparing Elph's melt downs and alcoholism to the abuse of his father. I don't think he's actually that tone deaf.

Edit: And you're the last one to talk when it comes to kiddy gloves. Mods have treated you like a harmless child just having fun while going HAM on others for the same **** DWV was guilty of.

You just find the petty **** entertaining, quit fronting.

Yes. But I don't find it worthy of descending on him in defense of mindfulness. Being obnoxious and toxic is half of Music Banter's charm and has been for as long I've been here. You're just treating mindfulness like an invalid when he is not. Just **** off and let him fight his own battles. It's not like DWV is going to go full psycho and obsess over running mindfulness off the site. That's not his style at all. He's just kind of an autistic blowhard at times.

No I think that's exactly what DWV was doing. Mindfulness does a lot of posting about fads and whatnot and I think it's totally normal for someone like DWV who's been busting his balls over that kind of stuff to post what he did without really thinking twice about it. I don't think it was an attack. I think he just saw mindfulness' post, posted a quick reaction, and then moved on to whatever else he was doing.

His **** with elph I absolutely thought was **** and gave him the finger over it, but I don't think that's really what he was doing with mindfulness. DWV can totes be a prick but I don't think criticizing someone over looking for random pills is something he would have thought was anything else but casual criticism.

Totally misses the context of the convo. He has to be really really ****ing dumb for that to be a legit mistake.

He acted just as clueless as he did with the elph situation back pedaling and all. The back pedaling is also very very see through. I don't buy it.

I agree that it's not malicious. We owe it to DWV to point out when he's just being a boring, unconstructive reactionary because sometimes he doesn't realize it. He's claimed to know that he can approach things better (albeit during breathless insisting that there's nothing wrong with his behaviour), so it's for the good of mankind or something.

He might look like a soft giant teddy bear, but I assure you he's just a slightly less soft giant teddy bear.

We can definitely agree that I don't think he's being malicious. But tbh he's a boring unconstructive reactionary in general so if it has to be mindfulness he's talking about for it to be pointed out then I have an issue.

Nah, you're just being an idiot as a person who gets the most special treatment.
