I discussed with my parents about me playing on forums. I said it could help develop my talents and broaden my thinking. My dad ruthlessly said: 'That's nonsense. Posting some meaningless stuff every day, and you call that training? Tell me, how does talking nonsense for a day help you at all?'
At this point, I fell silent.
A person in his forties has experienced far more than I have, so it's normal that my little reasoning doesn't work on him.
However, I still stayed on 7tan (7 Forum).
I have always valued the 'discussion' aspect of the forum, and that is why I have been able to persist here for a long time.
Many veterans, after going through many storms, gradually lose their passion until they lurk or leave. This is why we have a different perspective on forums.
My principle is: don't fight over trivial matters, but discuss important ones.
I don't like using force to attack others or engaging in bottomless insults. On the contrary, I prefer to see people who can have a constructive debate with me, focusing on the matter and not the person.
I won't act arrogantly just because of my experience or status, because in my eyes, those are just clouds. Similarly, I know that in the eyes of many veterans, these are also just clouds. After all, it's just an ID; what so-called interests or real-life concerns have nothing to do with it.
I advocate freedom and thinking. What always excites me about the forum is its vastness and its idealism compared to reality.
Playing on forums for two and a half years, I once bet with a deputy administrator of my previous forum that I would maintain full enthusiasm for at least six months. He originally thought it was a joke, but in fact, I did it, and even before that forum collapsed, I was still active on the front lines. As for sticking to 7tan, I have mentioned it many times before, so I will not repeat it.
The forum is not just clouds to me, and it cannot control my life either. I persist because of my love for it, not for so-called online status. I can accept sharp criticism from others, but I absolutely cannot accept irrational attacks.
Therefore, persuading by reason and managing by virtue is my principle.
To be frank, let's discuss it openly!

Actually, there's no need to overanalyze what Xiao Ji said, nor is it necessary to deliberately translate it. Xiao Ji just wanted to say: '7723 gave me a great starting point and also provided me with an excellent environment for growth. Even when I am no longer young, I hope my youthful years will have 7723, that the companionship of my friends will leave no regrets, and 7723 will go even further, I firmly believe. So I won't give up either, as long as I am allowed, I am willing to always be 7723's ranger, watching over it.'
"I don't like using force to attack others or indulging in endless insults. On the contrary, I prefer to see someone able to engage in healthy debate with me, focusing on issues rather than personal attacks." I really like this sentence. If everyone in the forum could achieve this, it would become incredibly harmonious.
Perhaps one day when I leave, I will not forget everyone and Qiqi 223. 7723 has given me not only games, but also happiness and affection.
I have always been very active; I only leave forums when I get kicked out. According to popular admiration, 'Zuo Shou Tian Tang, this idiot is an active member without a brain.'
There is no feast in the world that does not end, but leaving with blessings and remembrance is a blessing for the 7 Jars as well.
Posts about ashes generally get a high click-through rate. I summed it up and found that most of the posts are of a heavy taste; you can tell at a glance that they come from experienced users.
Actually, participating in forums is not a small matter. At my age, I really need to interact more with adults. It is beneficial for life. After all, my ability to distinguish right from wrong is still insufficient.
