Do online forum users deserve your sympathy and affection?

[Bab00n]

Is having feelings for KF users like affection and sympathy considered a good and noble thing or is it unhealthy and a symptom of being terminally online?

You can be civil with other users, but being affectionate is kinda weird

 

[DumbDude43]

yes i deserve all the affection and sympathy

i won't be giving any to you though, cause that would be cringe and gay

 

[SSj_Ness (Yiffed)]

If they deserve it. Things don't change just because you're online.

Things don't change just because you're online.

Reality and virtuality become blurred when you stare at the screen for too long.

It’s ok to react to what you judge as genuine sentiment with genuine sentiment. Why force yourself to be any particular way?

Just have boundaries like you should anyways

I'm loving you without your consent.

If their reaction score is high enough, maybe

 

[Twinkletard]

I love all my racist frens who support this comedy website.

you might just be an homosexual

 

[Not Really Here]

The only people who deserve your sympathy and affection, are your family and close friends, not people you will probably never meet. That said, generally practicing empathy, and friendliness, is both good for your social skills, and adds to site social cohesion.

Affection? Like petting someone?

About half of you fuckers deserved to get petted, but I'm not touching you with a ten foot pole. You'll have to make do with stickers of appreciation.

no but some of you faggots deserve a date with Zyklon-C

We're all children of God. We're all brothers and sisters in the end.

It's perfectly natural for brothers and sisters to beat the shit out of each other when they're being fucking annoying. But do so out of love.

I kind of always assume most of the harshness is like when you first sign up and there’s a bit of a light hazing. It’s not because people hate you they’re mostly being honest. Or the person is a fag and it’s not a reflection of you like most of the wannabe sigma males and super aggressive feminist types.

The cure for this is reading a user's post history, works for me!
