Hey everyone,
I’m writing this because I’ve decided to officially leave Filmboards. This isn’t a "see you later" or a temporary break—I am leaving the site for good.
To be honest, real life has become incredibly busy. I’m at a point where I have too many important responsibilities on my plate, and I simply don't have the time or energy to dedicate to the boards anymore. I need to focus all my attention on what’s happening off-screen.
I also wanted to take a moment to address my trolling. I know I’ve pushed some buttons and stirred the pot quite a bit during my time here. I want to sincerely apologise for that; there are no hard feelings on my end toward anyone, and I hope you can feel the same.
I’m going to miss this community and the many conversations we’ve had, but it’s time for me to move on. Thank you for the memories.
Wishing you all the best,
~Aph -

the main part of dunning kruger that people miss is that the person suffering from it generally has a support system that leads them to believe they have ability.
but the fools narcissism never lets them see it, so they bring everyone down. they're usually the emotional center of the group. a strange sort of cult led by sad emotional vampires who claim they are always the victim in some smoke-filled conspiracy.
they even get so deluded to the point where they come to online message boards to confirm their bias by twisting a bunch of randos hatred of them into some sort of validating role of importance to the greater ecosystem.
