I don't like it that you're leaving, but I don't blame you.
It sucks to be attacked by people you thought should be your friends.

OMGWTFBBQFUCKYOU thats why i dropped it.

================================

in a follow up to my original post, i would like to point out that yet again you guys are fucking stupid, with the exception of a few people. i'm not gonna pull a slartibartfast and make a whiny 'look at me' post threatening to quit again, i just need to say this.

In the last two years since i've joined here, the forum has gone from <a small place with just a bit of activity> to an <awesome place for people to talk about ideas and rant and provide sermons> to <a bunch of people posting fluff and fluff and fluff and threadjacking, and maybe a ratio of 1:1000 good:worthless posts>.

What happened? Why are we suddenly full of so many trolls and people trolling under other accounts for stupid and bullshit reasons, and too many people pulling the high-and-mighty act all the time?

What's up?

you're right, i obviously have no right to expect everyone to cater to the boards. lemme rephrase my rant i guess, now that i've cooled down.

Why do you guys enjoy(and or put up with) a forum full of fluff, threadjacking, and trolling? What can you expect to get out of a place full of this? I thought that this board would be a learning experience but all it seems to be is a bunch of shit with a bunch of fighting, flaming, etc (yeah boo hoo for me). i didn't say i was against rants. i don't see the point of all the trolling under other accounts. guess it's my fault for wanting the forums to be something they can't be.

Well then Slarty, your children need to see more boobies.  Stop repressing their natural tendancies.  Just last night I was teach a 7-month-old how to properly feel up store manicans, twas fun.

ANd, Slarty, my friend, how can you expect a board like this to stay the same?  Experiance teaches best, but one cannot gain experiance unless things change.  Change is a requirement for these things to all work out properly.  Or not, I am kinda full of hippy shit.

to be honest we were on teh right track back to a better idea- discussion infested board, and then eric showed back up. i todl him to fuck off, many more tellings of him to fuck off ensued. he went away, we were gettign ont eh track again, he came back, while i was at work, i fucked off for a bit, trolled the best fuckin troll evar, int hat it wasn't a troll, so much, but jsut a text charachter, but it rocked anyway, an dpwned his ass anonymously in intelectual discussion in which i attempted to talk about the subject at hand, only to be handed fatal fallacy after fatal fuckin falacy, while my chrachter continued to request the topic be returned to. no in vtiationw as invited, however, as far as eric goes, i am a stupdi child, because i am the one who goes where he is unwelcome, insults ppl in totally uncool ways, can;t stfu up, adn then beitches how nobody gets it, it's randomicity, like fuck really? randomicity? well fuck me freddy, i could randomize a fuckin pig with a meatgrinder aint no fuckin sweat off my balls, and of coruse, it's been so ridculously done. btu eric is a good guy, really, in a way that totally escapes me.

this is what i was replying to in my post above..

slarti's agreat guy, i'm gonan have to write a thign abotu emo vs emotions. ppl tend to accuse me of being emotionaless, or always grumpy, but i just don't get pissed easily, and don't smiel unless there's reason to. doesn't take much to make me smile or laugh either. as for beign sad,w ell anyone gets saddened, everyone does.

as for rants, i don't liek rants either. th ehugh./roger rants onthis forum contain far too much content and substance for the relatively few paragraphs they take up. everyone knows fringe culture articles are sposed to be longwinded and boring, with any actual(if there is any) content buried so deeply within that one may miss them especially if one falls asleep liek the authors generaly seem to intend.

i already said i was wrong for expecting the board to do what i want. i'm sorry i didn't say i was against rants, i said i think YOU hurt this board. and i still do. You're right, most of my posts are attacks on posters, namely YOU, but they're all pretty weak 'attacks'. I'll post more of this later i guess but i don't have anything to say, so what do you say?

horab you're right, good point, here's a difference between emo and emotional

i think, roger, when i said "you're all fucking stupid", that was misdirected and it should have just been towards you. you're obviously not stupid so just fill in an insult in it's place i guess.

Post by: Slarti on June 02, 2005, 02:07:15 AM
this whole thing stems from my selfishness- i was being whiny because the boards changed from the 'good ol' days' that i remember to what they are now. they used to be enjoyable to come to and read and now i think a lot of the enjoyment is drowned out in hostility and fluff (read: random crap that takes good threads off topic, OR rants written by people that i don't understand and thus deem stupid. go me! rah!).

Yeah.  They were pretty weak attacks.  However, I'm a little confused.  You say that I'm not stupid, so I should have gotten the fact that you meant *I* was stupid.  

SOMEONE here is stupid, or at least doesn't communicate very well when all pissed off.

I eagerly await your next sniping attempt.  Please put more thought into the next one, m'kay?

i can't put any thought into them. let me rephrase. they were all attacks on you, but instead of saying 'you're stupid' i should have said something like 'you're an arrogant asshole' or something similar. but even that's not right. i'm arrogant here too. i guess i can't be coherent when i'm angry?


after we finish up with this thread, i'm done with the sniping attempts on you for good. it'll end here.

Yes, and *I* am solely guilty of that.

Lemme tell you something, Slappy...the reason I stopped posting rants here is because no matter what I wrote, or how much work I put into it, whithin 3 replies the conversation turned to silly shit about face raping bats and "What does this have to do with goats?".  

But why fight it?  I post my serious work elsewhere, and just treat this place as a chat room.  When in Rome...

So, take that and shove it up your ass, Slarti.  There are some people here that I will tolerate when I suddenly am responsible for all that is wrong with PD.  

Your punk ass isn't one of them.

Maybe you could post the Slarti dictionary, so that I can understand exactly what your insults mean.

No, it very well may not.  You thought you could just walk in, take potshots, and then just walk away?

See, what the problem here is, every time I try to settle down and stop the flaming, some kid comes along picking a fight.

Then, they think the fight will just end when they figure out their nasty little attacks didn't do any good.

So, you get what's happening here.  I don't like it any more than anybody else, but I'll be damned if I'm going to put up with a pile of shit about "content" from someone who rarely - if ever- provided any content himself.  Imagine THAT, Slarti?  Turns out I like you even less than you like me.

As for problems with the board, and flamewars, well, YOU have had a little bit to do with that, haven't you, mister ex-moderator?

Something about fucking with people's posts, wasn't it?  Yeah, THAT is condusive to a good forum, right?

Now, I'm going to be nicer than usual, and give you one (1) chance to avert a flamewar.  All you have to do is two things.

1.  After responding to this post, you do not speak to me.

2.  You do not speak about me, especially in the nasty little way you are so fond of.  If I am in doubt, I will assume you ARE talking about me.

Not too hard.  What do you say?

what did i do to Gitmo? He and i had a few angry tells sent back and forth about me doing something and him being mad, but i honestly don't remember what i did.

then i remember giving up my modship because of your posts and because i didn't like what came with the modship. remind me what i did, maybe i DID give up the modship because i felt i had overstepped my bounds. i don't remember.

i don't think i could avoid responding to your posts so i guess my answer to your offer is no.... flame away. i apologized, i acklowdged i'm a stupid punk bitch, i don't know why you want more from me.

You just declined.

So be it.  Don't try to say I didn't offer a chance to avoid what's coming.

As I recall, you altered his messages, and then taunted him when he PMed you about it.

That's all by the wayside, now.  Ancient history.

You and I have a little history writing of our own to do.

i really don't think i did any altering of messages. I would really hate it if someone altered my messages, so i would never do that to someone.

i wouldn't. unless it was something extremely distasteful, in which case i would do what i think the other mods would do- remove the image and link to it instead with a note that said "direct image replaced by a link ~slarti".

Nope.  My bad.  You outed his troll moniker, while NOT doing so to others.

It was someone else ( I think, hell, I wouldn't put it past your hypocritical ass ) that altered his posts.

When he called you on it, you laughed and said that "you hated trolls".  When asked why you didn't apply this standard universally, you said you "did it when you felt like it", and that you only did it to people that annoyed you.

Yep.  You were a fair mod, all right.  About as fair as John Ashcroft, anyway.

ah yeah that. i dropped modship because i reallized i had been hippocritical about the whole thing and wasn't able to keep my feelings about people separate from my responsibility to be an objective mod. that's why i dropped it. I'm pretty sure i apologized to gitmo at one point.

It's weird.  Sometimes I think you all are reading a different forum.

Granted, a thread here and there degenerates into trite fluff, and there are the inevitable flame threads (like this one), But check it out:  

Currently, there are 3-4 stories being created in serial form, There have been intense discussions about the nature of creation/destruction, some pretty good recipies have been passed back and forth, more than a few relevant political/current event conversations, several fairly good O:M missions, and some Discordian Kaballah, to boot.

I skim the trolling session, I glance at the fluff, I laugh at the jokes (and there are some damn good jokes in here), and I think about the "deeper" stuff.

If you ask me, this is one of the more productive and interesting forums out there.  A little something for everyone.

Why can't y'all stop focusing on the shit you don't like, and concentrate & contribute to the stuff you do?

to an

to

3<a bunch of people posting fluff and fluff and fluff and threadjacking, and maybe a ratio of 1:1000 good:worthless posts>.

What happened? Why are we suddenly full of so many trolls and people trolling under other accounts for stupid and bullshit reasons, and too many people pulling the high-and-mighty act all the time?

What's up?
I am Switzerland on this, but I don't think he said he didn't like rants Rog.  He is bitching about fluff without defining it.

Just a thought.  Look through his most recent posts, and see how many are NOT attacks on "certain posters".
Sorry, my dial up can't keep up with your l33t connection and uberl33t typing skills, I saw what you meant after I looked at the post you linked to.  But by then chaos was visiting my house and I had to log off :evil:

Scream! Yell!

Sorry. Just wanted to be like everyone else.

I don't know, Mal. People seem to have hair triggers. Either they
are all pulling our legs, following (you know who) over the cliff, or they
all've got serious problems with their real lives. Maybe some of
everything.
