    the i assume now-banned

    No, it's not banned, it came across as a troll at first but it appears to be a genuine user. The mods said

    In addition, we would like to reiterate that Hexbear is a space for all our comrades, even if you may not understand their experience, please refrain from labeling a fellow user a wrecker or troll. Using conditions as a pejorative is not allowed, please engage in good-faith and remember the human!

    I'm not sure where the line is with "narcissistic" tho.

      i meant i assumed the dork in the screenshot is gone, not it,

      and i stand by what i said in the other thread about plain narcissism not being the same as NPD in a way analogous to anxiety not implying an anxiety disorder before it made some unreasonable comparisons and I said ppb.

        I think using a term like "self-absorbed" or "egotistical" or even "main character syndrome" could work well to separate someone being self-obsessed from someone with actual NPD.

          What are you really changing about what you're communicating when you do that though?

            you're pulling out a medicalized term and replacing it with something more accurate
