Not too long ago there was this story about a game called Flappy Bird that was free to download for mobile devices.\u00a0 It became extremely popular to the point where the creator was apparently making about $50,000 a day on it.\u00a0 However, a lot of people found the game challenging to the point of frustration.\u00a0 As a result, they would direct hateful comments to the creator.\u00a0 The person then took the game down the app stores and was expressing how this game has affected his life in a bad way as a result of all the negative comments.<\/p>\n
$50,000 a day is a lot to walk out from for what was essentially anonymous critics that feel they can harass others behind a computer huh?\u00a0 I know the main advice is to usually just ignore comments like those.\u00a0 Makes sense in many cases.\u00a0 Maybe I am in the minority, but I always find it interesting to use it back in a humorous way if possible kind of like how late shows poke fun at people who send celebrities spiteful Twitter replies.<\/p>\n
I was reading today too that the original creator of this game was launching a new version too.\u00a0 Will be kind of interesting what his new outlook in dealing with social media is this time around.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
