I've never been a great chat-person, I'm socially a bit awkward and tend to not have much confidence when it comes to social gatherings. I feel easily lost in a crowd, even on line. So there are periods where I don't interact with anyone on this wiki for weeks. I'm not avoiding everyone, I just am very shy. There are several reasons why I lack confidence, dyslexia is one of the main reasons. I feel like if I mess up, everyone may pick on me for it. Its happened to me so much in the past that the OP wikia is basically the only place on the net my mess ups lead to me laughing along at my error instead of feeling sorry for myself because someone has mistaken what I wrote.

Also, long "essay" posts in the Vocaloid fandom, which I'm currently a fan of and part of the fandom, are not enjoyed by the vast members. To the point where I get told off if I don't spoiler long posts on one forum, and will be criticized for it to great lengths. There are two people on there who constantly now are just picking on my mistakes. When you consider this sort of thing has been going on for years... Yeah... Its always been a issue with that site, but recently I've gotten it more and I feel like when you pick on someone who is openly saying their Dyslexic, please excuse the writing, that you are dealing a person a low-blow. You are picking on them for something they can't help. Also, long posts are regarded as signs of a "know it all", which only the know it alls are allowed to be. If you appear to be a know it all and your not with the "know-it all crowd", your hated for it, as I am. :-/

Recently though, loneliness is resulting in the shyness sub-siding for a while and the folks picking on my writing for its errors are getting to me to the point a few days ago I was left crying at one persons comments. I'm 29 years old so its embarrassing that this is happening, but everyone has a point and I had been trying so hard throughout Jan to control the issues with dyslexia as all but a handful of days were bad for me.

At the moment, the OP wikia site is acting like a pressure relief valve. For all this sites faults, the vast majority of editors are nice guys. I am more trusting of everyone here then back to the Vocaloid wikia because of it. And the Vocaloid fandom tends to be a rather prude-like fandom which, when its not being bias, is being stupid... Sometimes both.

So yeah... With everything going on, this wikia is one of the more balanced places I visit. There are times when there are arguments, but everyone has their opinions and POV, so egos do clash and heads are banged together. But all this has lead to the wikia being what it is. :-/
