I have the right to rant against your rant just as much as you have the right to rant in the first place. As you said, this is a "discussion forum...wtf else do you expect to see posted?" Whenever anyone posts anything on the internet there will always be those that disagree. You are also tossing words in my mouth here regrading things such as lawsuits which I never mentioned, but that really doesn't need to be discussed beyond pointing it out.
Its not so much that you disagree, its just in the ridiculously self-satisfied way you do it. Youre going as far as to ask yourself rhetorical questions, so you can reply with how much better you are than everyone else. Its revolting.
That was an attempt to point out that things are not nearly as bad as they seem and most of this rant is making a mountain out of a mole hill. Top that off with me concluding that I have found life to be much much better if you discipline yourself to not let the little things bother you. It's just text book stuff written in a colorful way. I was not trying to make myself look better than anyone. This is the internet. How could I possibly know if I am actually better than anyone here or vice versa? That makes no sense. I think you are misinterpreting my posts which is fueling a lot of anger.
I think you're misinterpreting the point of the entire thread and even the entire forum. This thread doesnt sit between threads such as "My child has leukemia" or "My parents are getting divorced". It sits amidst threads about dying 360s, rock band and gamertag lists. Yes, we all get it, there are much more important things in life. There is no mountain. It's a mole hill amongst mole hills.
I know someone as magnanimous as you just can't sleep at night, while I'm so obviously spiraling down to an early death by cerebral hemorrhage from the intense hatred I harbor in my depths of my soul. I know you're just trying to help, but without xbox live, I have nothing but tears and rage.
My smug meter can handle only so many narcissistic rhetorical questions and life lessons before it crumbles under the pressure.
In all seriousness:
Me and about 10 of my friends went out and spent good money on this console, game and service. If we can't even reliably get our party together, or keep our party together when joining a game, its just plain broken, and serves no purpose to me. I dont have the time to hang out with my friends and/or play video games as I used to, and it's not nearly as fun to play without your friends. So when it doesnt work right, its really, really frustrating, more so than any other "toy" breaking down.
