"If you don't want to take GD seriously then go somewhere else."
Listen up everyone. This is serious shit. The fate of the whole world depends on it...honest.
"If you don't want to take GD seriously then go somewhere else."
The ratings of Planetarion Publications is going down the pan.
I think some of you forget that you are journalists, writing columns for a highly sucessful broad sheet newspaper.
Do you not know that each post must adhere to an extremely high standard?
I mean, it really takes the p*ss. It's starting to feel as though some of you aren't taking this seriously enough, and are merely thinking of this site as a fun way to pass some time.
How dare you?!!!

GD is more of a tabloid then a respectable newspaper, it would be a mistake to think it is anything 'serious'

Re: "If you don't want to take GD seriously then go somewhere else."
I know my posts will never please all the people all the time, but probably some of my posts will please some of the people some of the time. Also some of the time all of the people will like some of all of some threads, though only if some of all the people some times read some time but not all of the parts of some posts all of the time.*
* some of the time.

In the case of KaneED. Yes.

I hate to say it, but after re-reading it carefully, I actually like Yahwe's response.

Oh Ste, you really do hurt my feelings.
The internet and all its terrible bullies can be quite awful sometimes.
Off I go to slit my wrists, but across, for attention, you don't mean that much to me.

I wouldn't say it's a tabloid, although there are tabloid elements.
Guess what chaps, an internet forum doesn't map completely accurately onto a generic form of newspaper!

Yahwe is like this group of old women working at the debit department at the end of the hall of this office, altough Yahwe's vagina is bigger.

I think he's like more like feminist.
He shouts and makes a lot of noise and generally complains about things, all the while thinking he (she for the feminist) that they are so much better than everyone else.
Everyone knows no one listens to feminists

Re: "If you don't want to take GD seriously then go somewhere else."
You should probably interpret the quote as Yahwe saying "If you dont want to take me seriously then go somewhere else".
Its incredibly ironic and defensive of someone who spends their entire time belittling other posters on minute points. Not really sure what else i expected from an internet fatty though.

Re: "If you don't want to take GD seriously then go somewhere else."
I don't like being put in a position to defend yahwe, but beyond his closing phrase (the title of this thread - which I don't agree with) he was simply saying that it takes effort to make a good post and that KaneED hasn't and while the latter is the standard yahwe criticsm I despise, he was pretty witty about it.
I still considerably dislike yahwe.

If he's what you call a 'decent poster' then I'm not that sad at all that he's one of the last. I hope they go extinct.

A good post to him may be a crap post to me. Actually, since i find all his posts CRAP, that IS probabely the case.
What IS a good post anyways?
According to yahwe, all the post he makes, but according to random GD users?

Eventough I believe he (Yahwe) is a twat most of the time, you are losing all your credibility by saying that all his posts are crap. He's an intelligent poster, hostile perhaps, but intelligent.

Am i still in title to an own opinion or does GD form that for me also nowadays?

I think what makes people loathe to agree with you sigrid is that, you are in fact, basically and clearly, far more annoying and abrasive than yahwe is.

Of course there are several subjective reasons that you can say that all his posts are crap but on the other hand there should be enough objective facts to class a post into 'good' and 'bad'.
For example if the threads are constantly 1 liners, are only a row of insults and usually contain no arguements. Structure and readability of a thread can make it good or bad too.
Of course you can say that you think that all his posts are *CRAP* - but can you say as well that your opinion is objective ?

In general the minimum acceptable level of decent posting is decided upon by the moderators of GD and our beloved Fuhrer JammyJim. If you think all of his posts are crap you are wrong as, by this standard, he would have been banned by now. Everyone is of course entitled to form an opinion, however you are not automatically entitled to express it on a private forum (much like the fact that the Irish Times doesn't publish the daft letters I send in is not a contravention of my right of freedom of expression).

In all honesty, I consider all his post garbage because they either:
-are insulting or denegrading towards others, or
-are clearly written to show how full he is of himself, or
- are totally uninteresting to normal everyday GD browsers, or
-are too long and specific and dont contain any question that would ask for a response.
Just my opinion.

The average random GD user is a nerdy, brainless piece of character spouting, anon negrepping social inaptitude that would not recognise irony if it drove through their bedroom in a city bus wearing full-size side banners saying ´I AM IRONY YOU SHITBRAIN´ whilst playing ´Sounds of Irony´ on high, full-stereo, volume.
Like really.

Private as in not owned by the state. Private as in the property of Jolt. Private as in under the control of Jolt and their designated forum administrators and moderators.
