What do you do face to face in person when you are mad?
I do find it amusing when they come right back tho.
Im starting to recognize the personalities and it's fun to try to figure out if I "know" them!
When I did it it wasn't just mfp and it wasn't anything at all to do with the forums. I'd gotten sick of all "social media" and internet life in general. It wasn't until a few days later I was like "yeah I actually needed mfp to log.." and I felt bad for leaving without saying bye to some people so I came back.. literally within a matter of days. It was pretty stupid If I feel the same in the future I'll just uninstall the app for a while then come back when I feel like it. Makes more sense and it was a hassle having to make a new account and add everyone back for no real reason.
Also, alcohol might have played a tiny little part in my tantrum..
There's a few users who keep making new accounts but have pictures of themselves as their pp so they can't be "hiding". I've never really understood that because I always found it such a hassle to make a new account. But I guess they just felt like a fesh start like some have already said in this thread. Seems like a waste of time and email addresses to me though.
Sorry everyone caught a creeper and had to create a new account. Going to use my same profile picture and go right back to the smash or pass threads. I'm sure things will be different this time around.2 -

The ones I'm talking about seem to create a new account every month. I'm gonna start to call them period mfpers because of the new account monthly cycle.6 -

I'm guilty of this too, so I get it. Now I'll just go on "hiatus" and stay away if I need to but I'll think long and hard before ever deactivating again. Especially if I know I'm bound to return in a matter of weeks.1 -

100%. It was sort of embarrassing too because when I was adding people back everyone wanted to know what had happened so I had to explain that actually, nothing HAD happened..I'd just gotten drunk and over reacted.

I created this account (my 2nd one) almost a year ago. The other account I had for at least 5 years. I was making a fresh start so I wanted a fresh account to go with it. I have never rage quit or left for any reason. I've always been here. I barely posted in the forums with my old account.1

I kind of want to make someone 'rage quit.' I've never seen it. I think the people in Chit Chat and Fun & Games are probably too chill. The people in the more serious forums take themselves WAY too seriously.
ETA - of course, I'd never actually do that. Even hard-headed self-proclaimed experts should feel welcome.2
