TighTT's ego.

I feel that ego is a thing that people have a huge problem with, unneccesarily. It is one of the first and loudest complaints I get when venturing into a new forum. I find all these complaints boring and uncontributory, detracting from the flow and constructive effort of the forum in general.

More to the point, I find that the people who complain the most about another's ego are those who have the most of it themselves. They feel threatened by the rival ego, and feel the need to deflate him.

This leads to needless flame wars and ruffled feelings, and little constructive effort. I personally see little difference between self-confidence and egoism, and believe there to be no difference at all. I think the proper method to deal with it is to completely ignore the egotistical statements, and focus instead of the merits of what that person has to say, until one can properly appreciate egoism and what it does for people.

I think egoism is a natural and healthy attitude in people, one to be encouraged. If it cannot be encouraged, it should at least be ignored. We all need to have our self-esteems stroked, and giving positive reactions instead of negative ones goes a long way towards building community and trust.

Witness the anime series Naruto, where any degree of egoism is expected and encouraged of the ninjas that populate Konoha. Yet Konoha is one of the most tightly knit communities you can find, bound by idealogy and comaradarie.

Surely you cannot read the writings of Maddox or Tucker Max and not have some sense of awe at their self-proclaimed awesomeness. They are awesome, whether we wish to acknowledge that or not, both having been able to amass a horde of people just waiting for their next piece.

If you have issues with arguments, please feel free to point out where and how you think they are wrong. But keep any purely reactionary arguments in your head for a little while before you air them out, will you? It will mean less wasted time for me and the rest of the group as I won't have to answer your pointless and non-constructive assertions.
