Editing NoisilyInsane
NoisilyInsane is a state wherein it is known that the person involved is completely and utterly mad. This state is to be avoided at all costs. If at all possible, the state QuietlyInsane should be used to avoid NoisilyInsane. Sadly, many people have entered this state, as demonstrated by the NapalmIncident, and this seems to result in forcible eviction from TheBubble. This is just one of many adverse side-effects. ''Hmm... I disagree that QuietlyInsane is neccessarily better than NoisilyInsane. For one thing, in the state of NoisilyInsane, there's much more likelyhood that people will actually realize that they need to help you out. Mmmn... Proctor Intervention. Yum!'' * I concur. While going NoisilyInsane may be more damaging in the short term, a NoisilyInsane person is much more likely to receive help (wanted or not) than a QuietlyInsane person. A person who stays QuietlyInsane for the long term is very liable to fuck up themselves and others, possibly beyond repair. --RichardGarfinkel * And people who are QuietlyInsane for a long time might suddenly go NoisilyInsane, but because they've been AnyInsane for so long they might be as NoisilyInsane as a person who had been NoisilyInsane for a long time without anyone noticing. Which, we all know, would be bad. ''It can also be useful to appear NoisilyInsane, but in a particularly unconvincing manner, so as to trick people into thinking that you are actually SaNe. In this situation, I guess your actual state would be QuietlyInsane, but it might be better expressed as [[NoisilyInsane|MetaInsane]]. Or maybe [[NoisilyInsane|MetaInsane]] would better be used to describe what happens when you think you're [[SaNe|InSane]], but really aren't. Or something like (or unlike) that.'' * Sounds like some hum1 papers I've seen ;-) ''You're so crazy that you don't know you're so crazy that you don't know you're insane?'' The trouble here is that you are all implying that insanity is necessarily a bad thing. ''I don't suffer from insanity. I enjoy every minute of it!'' *''I should point out there are many kinds of insanity. Some are good, some are fun, and some require immediate outside intervention and you're lying to yourself if you don't concede this point ;P --Prions''
