Dude you got to understand that most people don't consider online people "friends" like that of someone who you hung out and grew up with in real life.
There are cool people here and we can BS around but when I'm out there living the dream in real life I don't really think of Getbig.
I feel bad for Avesher getting hung out to dry so that is why I would like to see revenge. I don't want him to get in trouble but he deserves to experience the satisfaction of thrashing the fuck out of AXA. Man...I feel bad for not doubting the authenticity of that email.
So yes I guess you can say I am a better "friend" cuz i want him to get justice and get away with it. You just want him to be a pussy and hide.
I agree with your first point, and I like the way you used the word "most." That's accurate. MOST of the time people don't get so involved with a message board that it influences their happiness in LIFE. Avesher reached this point. His identity on here became part of his self identity, he began to rely on you guys for emotional support, etc.... When that happens, YES, he does consider you a real "friend," believe it or not. The point is,
most of the time it doesn't reach the point of people on forums being considered "friends," but in Avesher's particular case it did. I explained this earlier.
I understand you want him to get "revenge," but you speak of what happens on message boards so lightly, yet you want him to do this, physically, in real life? That is a contradiction, first off. Second, do you really think that is something that will make Avesher proud in the long run, in his life, as time goes on? The time he fought a 19 year old because he didn't like how he came across on a fucking internet message board? NO. He will regret it for the REST OF HIS LIFE, and as someone who considers himself a "friend" to Avesher, THAT SHOULD CONCERN YOU.
