>>12578208The one I first noticed in you and mentioned when we spoke back then. It's to establish yourself over anyone else who comes here. Bigu puts pressure on you, but you're still somewhat of a familiar (or at least you feel that way over any newbies), which gives you an incentive to bully them to prove yourself. Which is exactly what I noticed you do. You could be incredibly nitpicky towards other people in these threads. I thought it was just your mental issues, but I started doubting it because you don't apply your supposed morality equally, i.e. at times saying you can't joke about things people don't have control over, but then doing it yourself when it looks like it's worth some internet points. I don't know, maybe you do see some subtle difference there, but it's quite doubtful. Of course, you'll also take jabs at Bigu when you see it possible to get away with. After all, he's the initial cause of the pressure you experience, so he's worth the most points. There are other approaches, like lowering your guard in hopes that the person will do the same. I've seen Reimu kind of do it in the past days alone. Hoping Bigu will be friendly towards her if she tries to engage honestly (or playfully). Of course, that never works and she just gets shot down and I assume that frustrates her, creating a need to heal this "injury". You know, hate drives engagement like nothing else.
There's also the desire to prove that you understand people at any given opportunity, which aids greatly in appearing as if you're a part of the ingroup. I think you do exhibit this quite often, though so do I, so can't judge here too much, he he.
