    Default Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me.

    Hi all

    There have been many recent threads about rude/abnoxious things people have said.

    I feel that the PL community (in game) has changed alot, people are no longer as nice... Now I'm not talking about everyone, but the general attitude of the average player is.... Eh.

    Either that or I am lucky enough to (each time) join a towne where I report someone for terrible language... (sarcastic)

    So I just wanted to tell all the new people (and old) out there who are having bad experiences with other players the old saying "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me."

    In otherwords, If someone says something nasty/rude/abnoxious, you can report them if it's really bad, but otherwise just ignore them, their what I like to call N00bS who won't survive long.

    I know alot of people who have gotten all worked up about something someone said about them and quit. Don't quit, report (if nessecary) and ignore them

    It's been like that since PL went more commercial lol. It happens in every young adult-adult oriented games and there's no way to escape it. Just gotta deal with it and utilize the ignore button to it's full capabilities lol

    What a coincidence, I just read an FB link with the same line.

    Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me. Until I threw a dictionary at him. LOL!

    Funny thing is that the majority of the rude comments are completely empty. Like random people will walk up and say "You're ugly". Haha ok...

    Seriously, people do that all the time. Or if you don't give them free stuff they start cussing you out...
