Title: What do I say to that?
Post by: darkknight on February 07, 2014, 06:42:34 pm
(http://static3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130801110808/dragonball/images/6/6a/You-dont-say.jpg)

Ever had that one statement or topic you've found yourself asking, "Gee, what do I say to that?" or "Do I say anything at all?" On the forum, you can sometimes have that topic where you want to be involved in the conversation, but don't exactly know what to say. Or you're in-game, you're talking to someone and they suddenly bring up some news you don't how to react to.

Sometimes, I'll go around on the forum and often times, I'll find myself in a position where I want to say something, but do not know how to put it. Vise versa, I wouldn't want to repeat something being said by someone else to make it seem like I'm just talking with the crowd or being a parrot. Added, there are times I'm in the game and chatting with various people and they change the subject to something personal or regarding sensitivity.

Anybody else feel like that sometimes or had an experience with it?

Dude, that happens ALL the time to me. And I'm like "Oh gee, why can't I ever respond to anything?!" Seriously. I hate it. Though, I'm glad I'm not the only one here who can't think of a response very quickly! Or at all.

I do sometimes find myself typing away before erasing it or just stare at the other replies and comments while keeping quiet. It's usually when someone, like you said, changes the subject to a more private matter. Other times, I find myself thinking that what I would reply with wouldn't make any sense/be offensive in some way. So yea, happens to me a lot.

Oh, yes. I feel that way many time in RPs. I took a break from FeralHeart RP for about 3 months, and now that I sort of lost my RP skills I have to look up a few words just to refresh my memory on what that certain word means. :P A few times on the forums as well.

I have this issue quite often in role plays (in-game) where one of the other players is sitting a distance away from everyone else making posts such as: posts about how sad they are, or how they sit there thinking to themselves, doing nothing at all that could attract the attention of any of the other characters.
Whom, of which this players character is usually not acquaintanced with any of the other characters, whom are likely already having a conversation of sorts.

And just sad things in general give me a hard time. I've never known what to say, let alone where to start, to be of any comfort. Unless, perhaps I witnessed just what the other is sad about.

Same thing happens to me on the forum and in-game all the time. I dislike in-game when I'm having a fun conversation with someone then they start asking things like, "Can I add you on Facebook/Skype?" ...No thanks, I don't ask for personal information so I'm obviously not going to give mine out. Most people understand, if not, then those aren't the ones I should be chatting with. I came here to pass time and goof off. Sometimes It's hard not to give in when you've known them for awhile and start to trust them.

Now, on the forum.
Usually the reason why I resign my comments is either, someone else already proved my point, or I feel like someone might respond badly. If only I would have gotten there first...

@Vacio; I have that problem all the time too, and then the ones who purposely put their characters into situations where their lives are in danger. Dumb things like drowning just to get yours' to recuse theirs. Forced character development much? Aggh. I just sit there and do something dumb like eating vegetation.

Oh, I'm all too familiar with this. Being a newbie here on the forums, I'm still in that "want to post, but don't want to seem weird, obnoxious, etc..." phase. Then, of course, there's always that person who starts casually chit-chatting with you and suddenly spills out all their problems to you. You don't know if they really need your comfort or they're just being attention hogs. Yup. Happens to me all the time.

It'll pass. :)

Good to know that I wasn't the only one who had that problem.

I think these two hit the nail spot on, this is exactly what happens to me. I try to be a reasonable and helpful member on the forums, but at times I sit there all like: "What do I say to that...?" Or if it's a topic in which I have no expertise.

Happens to me too every now and then. If I can't find the words to type when responding to a topic, I think to myself, "Eh... I'll probably answer it later" and move on to another topic.

It's such a sad thing when you go blank when you're role-playing, it makes you feel uninspired or lazy in the mind. Especially, when you really feel like, "No responsiblities for me! I'm going to rp all day, today!" Then, several minutes later, you don't know what to post for your entry. Much sadness...!

It gets like that at times where I think, "oh, it'll still be there, I'll answer later." Then, when I come back, I've completely forgotten either what the topic was or what I was going to say. Rage!
