Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
Ok folks. Some members of the forums have decided to call it a day in recent weeks.

I can completely understand their decision. GD has become a place in which posters think they are popular columnists working for a top newspaper.

They are mistaken.

I have been around here for a while now, under a number of guises as some of you know. I have been at either end of the spectrum - with much negative rep, and despised to the point of banning.... to where I am today - attaining loads of rep in 200 posts.

I no longer feel the need to type this URL into my browser.

I am going to join the ranks of Flavius and the other jokers and make my leave from this place. If you can't have a laugh any more - it isn't worth it.

Someone gets banned for posting a few news articles, yet people are allowed to post facist comments such as this: http://pirate.planetarion.com/showpo...9&postcount=10 and this: http://pirate.planetarion.com/showpo...3&postcount=40 and this: http://pirate.planetarion.com/showpo...5&postcount=91 and more.

This place has been tarred by the likes of an apparent circle jerk crew which has formed around Yahwe and is pumping at full pelt.

Anyway, screw this. I'm outta here. Please delete this account. Thanks, and good luck!

All of those comments are terrible examples of "fascist comments" since they're all intended as humour.

In order to get deleted as quickly as possible follow these three easy steps:

1. Post 10 Threads with the title 'EASY FREE SCAT PORN' with a link to scatbabes in the thread (I wont provide the link because I do not want to be deleted).
2. Create a Gimmick account called 'SCATBABE'
3. Using the the new gimmick account repeat step 1.

You should now be deleted and I.P. banned.

No, I'm the one who registers members with Yahwe's circle. It's totally out of the control of anyone else, and it's by my own arbitrary executive powers that I include or exclude people from APOS.

Re: Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
It's always a tragedy for the community to lose someone who posts threads of this calibre.

Tomkat 7 Nov 2005 08:26

Re: Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
You guys can be real twats sometimes :(

I like Arachnidman. I think he's a good poster. I think he fits in well here.

It's unfortunate he doesn't like some of the more controversial humour (I noticed you didn't care about rape or pedophilia jokes though?), but apart from that I think he slots in nicely :(

I don't want him to leave.

Deepflow 7 Nov 2005 08:28

Re: Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
I don't particularly want him to leave either, but on the other hand, posting an "I'm going to leave" thread and not leaving is probably the worst thing anyone can do ever.

Weeks 7 Nov 2005 08:48

Re: Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
I'm quite fond of Arachnidman.

I still like the forums and quite a few of its memebers but recently the forums have become polarised which reduces my enjoyment to such an extent where the enjoyable posts don't outweight the shit-throwing posts (a few are humorous but recently there's been an influx of i'm-in-a-bad-mood-and-damnit-i'm-going-to-bring-it-on-the-internet-and-call-everyone-****s-****-you). I'd also like to spend my time not being inflicted to the aforementioned shit-throwing (not that it's aimed at me i'm just sick of reading it) and doing something more productive. One is waiting for Jonny to ban/delete me and ban my IP address so I'm not tempted to spend more time here.

Peace.

p.s. how happy does 'hello nasty' make you feel at 7.50 in the morning?! Oh yeah.

[edit] i just looked at those links and they're not the reason i'm leaving. just to clarify.

Ps: I don't think you should leave.

SilverSmoke 7 Nov 2005 09:33

Re: Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
Actually there have been some times I thought about quitting GD as well, because, it's not all untrue what the quitters are whining about, there is a great sense of unequality over here, and saying there is by no means any form of circle jerking over here wouldn't sound very credible.

Ste 7 Nov 2005 09:46

Re: Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
So, Except for Flavius, Who else is leaving?

Weeks shouldn't leave (please!), Arachnidman is going OTT and Flav will be back at some point anyway ;)

madi 7 Nov 2005 10:01

Re: Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
i am pretty sure you dont need to have your account deleted to not post here anymore, having one does not force you to type nor does having one deleted prevent you from ever posting again

if you want to leave just bugger off and be done with it.

Weeks 7 Nov 2005 10:13

Re: Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
In non-deviant circumstances you're right madi. At this moment in time I could be doing all kind of worthwhile things, but instead I'm replying to your post explaining that I need my account to be deleted in order for me not to post anymore otherwise i'll just come back and explain to you why I need my account deleted whist making sure I drag this sentence out as long as I can without.... blar blar blar fill the rest in yourselves.

Flavius was banned for signing up a gimmick account and posting shit copies of news stories on the boards in what can only be described as deliberate trolling or spamming. If people complain about texan doing that then what do you expect if you sign up an entire account for that sort of shit? I will miss flavius and weeks (possibly even spiderman). Only JJ has the ability to delete accounts so I guess I'll just sit around here waiting for him.

Re: Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
I dont want to delete your account :-((((

Flavius was only temp banned by jonny because we had been going on and on and on to texan about the whole issue of posting news threads for no reason. Plus the fact he had been actually discussing 'lols im going to make a gimmick account and spam up GD' on IRC. Reconsider before you leave us. Most people here quite like you. :/






p.s. This isnt a yahwe wankathon forum.

Re: Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
I'm torn between the loss of a couple of posters who made occasionally amusing posts and the absolute faggotry of asking for their accounts to be deleted (not including Weeks, who seems to have some sort of genuine reason for leaving) like they just couldn't stay away.

Agreed, i suspect ill be using it in the future, its a lovely phrase.

Also, if pig thinks its charming, it almost certainly is :)

Re: Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
Arachnidman, as I've said before, is a good poster. I hope he doesn't leave (but in future avoids 'rebel without a clue' threads like this one and his rep renounciation). I honestly don't see newspaper columnist style posts or a circle around Yahwe. He's more than capable of 'doing his thing' unsupported and has achieved the 'poster you love to hate' status that Arachnidman couldn't manage.

I'm all in favour of the funny, and it is sometimes in short supply, but what Flavius was doing shat on the good name of comedy. A newsbot posting news, and a parody of Texan weeks after it was topical - and we're supposed to wail "oh no a 'joker' is being oppressed?".

If there is a core these days, it's a circle of reasonableness, a growing group of good-natured posters whose maturity outweighs the diminishing and juvenile negativity that occasionally abounds.

The third and final threatened departure is one of these people, and thus one most here will hope comes to nothing... Weeks. Requesting deletion (because of temptation to revisit) implies you don't really want to leave. The best way to leave GD is through gradual disaffection, increasingly infrequent visits where you find nothing of value to read and cba to contribute until you fade away.

Anyway, Flavius will return tonight with a jovial 'sup like nothing ever happened.

Probably.

GD, more addictive than heroin.

You need to find a lesser forum (maybe RP) to wean you off, like methadone. Hopefully ou won't get addicted there otherwise you're lost forever!

Re: Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
i'm not sure it's worth me posting anything here, because it's all been said pretty well already by most people in this thread. to summarize: arachnidman: not shit. this thread: shit (but good title). yahwe: 'hurtful' (but not as much as he used to be). but: so what. weeks leaving: wtf? flavius: rightfully temp banned. racist jokes: can be funny.

oh, and as dante once noted, there is a tendency among some posters to get angry and go on a bizarre downward spiral, alienating people with an increasing level of shitness. 'don't be that guy'

Re: Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
 
These masses of people who are saying that Spiderman is/was a good poster are either criminally insane or criminally ignorant of the reams of shit which he has posted and for which he has been banned for on multiple occassions. Either that or they are just being sentimental over the fact that someone has announced they are leaving.
