guess what sluts part II: the new batch

[johnny]

eh, i don't really get why you only seem to be annoyed with jep, rad. i post stupid off-topic things too, but it's no big deal. just put jep on your ignore list and quit being such a suck.

[Stormy]

The Internet doesn't mean anarchy, Jep. If we all went around posting whatever the hell we wanted, we'd all get shit for being annoying.

i think jep is a baby who wants attention and ever since you've been to this board, it's made me and several others not care to post anymore.

I would say it's more his more attention-hungry sidekick, and her acceptance, which has made me stop posting.

have you ever been to something awful forums? or the friend society forums, or the penny arcade forums, or and game spot or game faq forums? it is frikkin anarchy, and people dont get shit because everyone else is doing it too, and they're having fun. Believe or not, we're all allowed to have fun, with mild bouts of seriousness in between, not the otherway around, thats not really how the internet appears to work.

she doesnt post here anymore anyway, shes off in europe for the summer and she didnt post more than 10 times a month when she was here.
I would have guess it was a lack of anything to relate to in the content or something like that, but I could be wrong. If you feel you want to start adding content relevant, you can most certainly do so, and we'd prolly follow suit.

figures when we decide to stop, you show up. we gave you a chance, and for some unknown reason you were even made a mod of the general forum.

actually, you didnt stop, I was even banned arbitrarily by seph. but gt got mad cuz him and lild were acting a foo' for rizzle. I stuck around anyway, cuz I thought maybe I could learn something, and I did, from the level headed people like bigs, gt, cid, raub, peesexguy, and even mike on occasion, and I also learned that the only way to keep you guys from being dicks is call you on it. Being called an attention whore was an unfortunate side effect.

before jep was here, the bored wasn't the best thing since sliced bread, but we had conversations and posts that were interesting.

bullshit, we had posts like what drugs are you taking, with interesting posts, with some high and mighty people, and some cool headed non druggies who were occasionally flamed for being close minded. We had the famous religion thread which always broke down into flame wars, and was repeatedly revived and reposted. we had posts on how someone injected windex into his cat to kill it cuz it had diabetes and actually put it in a trashbag while it was frightened for its life, i dont even remember if they said it was real, but it was memorable. there were the yearly topics from metalistar about how much he missed dex. When we had the main page up before TTB deleted it, and bigs gave up on it. We didnt have half the readership we do now. its mostly 20 reads, 18 reads, 30 reads, top one was 79 reads, our content now gets 80+ reads (some up to 150+) usually and for good reason, we usually post like college kids instead of stupid high school kids. And while we arent getting many forum members, thats not surprising at our development, when its only a few of us advertising ourselves.

since jep's been here, you try to post one serious topic and the very first response is soemthing completely retarded and off the subject. the top 5 posts always have to be started by jep, jep has to have the last post on every thread.

creeper has more posts than me, retarded responses are something you should anticipate with a group like ours, not abhor. It should be a source of humor, not inner drama. I said this in the other topic but I'll say it again here, it seems like the most level headed person among us is sharkz.



and I didnt ask for your opinions on my gender, you fucks just seem to give it regardless, and to be honest I dont even want it nor do I care. I mentioned them in the other topics cuz they illistrate a point, that creeper acted a fool' just like any one of us in the past, he has rectified the situation amicably and I will now drop the topic and go back to being fun loving, chai drinking, and adding arbitrary fucks to conversations, adding relevent content, and forgetting to remove my signiture cuz I suck at life.

"before jep was here" and then he rambles about the stupid stuff that followed him to the board... nice argument pal

I've known countless people to have been banned from SA forums, thanks--and I've posted and lurked (more). SA only feels like anarchy because of its massive following; I haven't been to the others, but I imagine it's the same way there.

With only, what, fifteen regular forumers, one would expect more order here than there. I still say, if you consider making stupid posts fun, that we create a "stupid posts subforum [name pending]" to separate the asinine from the "serious." I've seen it work before, as long as there is a healthy balance where people are posting. I would contribute to that forum joyfully.

she doesnt post here anymore anyway, shes off in europe for the summer and she didnt post more than 10 times a month when she was here.

It's more that it was all merk-centric content. I'm not going to come online and babble about the great things I've got going for me or the nightmarish tragedy that has just happened to me; and if I do, it won't be every post I make. While I was once that way, I've since matured, and realize how fucking, not just annoying, but inane that stuff can get. I am not annoyed by her because she was raped by her father, or because she's really good at fencing, I'm annoyed at her because she expects all of us to fucking care about it. The way she spoke about herself, no matter the cirucmstances, had a certain element of bragging, or attention whoring--which takes it up a notch. And while I understand that a degree of the Internets' backbone is socialization on the level of talking about oneself and one's going-abouts offline, I also think that there should be a parallel amount of subject-centric content: thorough discussion of music, films, sports, food, insects, look at this flash game Ztolk made it's great, et cetera, in which the subject is not the self or derived from personal offline experience. I don't recall her using TTT as much more than a personal, open "hay guys guess what happened."

and I didnt ask for your opinions on my gender, you fucks just seem to give it regardless, and to be honest I dont even want it nor do I care

While I know you're addressing all forumers, I don't think I've ever mentioned your gender in any derogatory way.

[Plain Old Jane]

rad, the stuff i mentioned was in the month I joined the forum on the way back machine, it was all TTT-like before I got here.

you're not a fuck, stormy.

couldn't agree more... basically drove off Cid and you, and annoys the fuck out of me most of the time.

[Jesse]

She really annoys me too. She'll post just about anything that happened in her day. I remember that big long post she had about moving into her basement, or some such jazz.

TTT isn't your blog.

This drama as of late has made for good reading. Got some decent threads going.

they made they're own desicions to leave. we have an ignore function.

and in response to creepers post, I'll just point to his inbox and post this as my official response.

But it really sucks to lose some good senior members on account of her mind-numbing posts.

[Plain Old Jane]

i agree but they obviously werent that attached if they didnt bother looking for the ignore button.

[Mr Biglesworth]

oh give me a break, i'm so sorry that all of your time and brain processes are so goddamn precious that you can't stand to be bothered by, heaven forbid, what's going on in a members life. Get off your high horses and recall the sniveling brats that you all were when this thing started. Now we're just stuck up and righteous people who don't even get along. chill, stop making issues, please

I personally don't use the ignore function, unless someone is harassing me--which I haven't had a problem with.

1) I'm fine hearing about some parts of a person's life--if you had read my post, you'd understand that I know talking about offline experience is part of--but it shouldn't be the focus of 100% of their posts. Jesse said it perfectly: she treats TTB like her blog.
2) I'm the first one to admit that I was a sniveling brat, but that doesn't mean the last five years haven't changed me.
3) Taste does not a righteous person make.

She was an annoying bitch. No way in fuck am I going to let her use the victim card to get my sympathy or defense. We all have shit happen to us--even to the traumatic level of her shit.

she could end up pulling a Jesse if she decides to reassess what this board and its members expect of people who post here

I think she'll improve if she uses the Internet while she matures offline, too. God only knows I was worse, and I'm pretty tolerable now.

And I think she's 17 or something.

[heX]

i personnally would want cid, rad and stormy 100 times over jep and sidekick
