Now imagine that actually happening. Mmmhmm. You better start thinking. If my girlfriend being in labour was something that happened, and you came and said "you didn't reply to my thread so maybe you don't want a character in Clash Of Cubes huehuehuehue", then what if I told you my GF was giving birth? (even though none of what I mentioned about pregancy never happened, oh well)
If I had told you my GF was in labour, then I would've made you look stupid. You're obligated to look at my Online/Offline status, which you didn't. I'm allowed to have a life. You don't control it.
I use my time well and carefully. I didn't need to reply to a thread for a character because maybe I had a life, which, I should ask; did you ever think about the fact that has a life?
What if I saved for responding to your thread for later because maybe I was celebrating somebody's birthday? Celebrating my girlfriend's birthday, achievement, milestone, etc?
You have no good reason to say "Funnybone should reply to the thread I made".
Think about this for a bit; imagine if I had mentioned I had a girlfriend, she was pregnant, and she went into labour the next day. If I went to the hospital with her, and I was offline from Alice Forums, and while I was offline, you came around to my page and said "Oh hey, you didn't reply to my thread. Don't want a character in Clash Of Cubes?"
My response to that would be "Do you see I'm offline? My girlfriend was about to give birth, and then you instantly think that I don't want a character in Clash Of Cubes?! What kind of person are you?"
"I mean I asked the community like 2 weeks... and you didn't reply..."
"Um... you replyed to his like the next day... you had 2 weeks to reply to that..."
I have a life, and I am free to have one. The fact that you said I hadn't replyed to your thread was like... just wow.
I'm wasting your time? No, you're wasting your own time, waiting for me to respond to something which by saying that I hadn't replyed to your thread, you made this turn into a problem.
I use my time well and carefully. I didn't need to reply to a thread for a character because maybe I had a life, which, I should ask; did you ever think about the fact that EVERYBODY has a life?
