I first started this account when I was quite young and had a desire to be an Imagineer, mostly relegating myself to that portion of this site. Not long after, my attention shifted (like so many young people's brains do), and stopped posting here mostly lurking. In the past month or so I decided to come back to this site and I quickly picked up on a problem that seems to be spanning many different sections of these Forums: Sarcasm and Misunderstanding. From the couple weeks or so I have been back engaging and posting, and have already seen countless instances of seemingly harmless jokes being taken as insults/attacks.
I am making this thread simply to discuss this problem, and the possible solutions to it! I hate seeing people making good jokes to lighten the mood in threads, only for someone to become agitated and lash out over a misunderstanding.
