Yeah, I lurk the shit out of the forums. Well OT at least. The truth is I generally don't give a shit what's being discussed. There are just a few members I really enjoy. So yeah, I'm equally lame. It's gotten so bad that my wife knows who most of you are. She's generally amused by leto, ghost and kastere. She says I'm too mean.

Stupid bitch.

What?!?!?! :eek:

Homepage?
Wow, I never even thought of that. Fuck it. I won't make this my home page. I have some dignity left.

I know the feeling. It came up so much in the conversations Nikki and I had over the holidays. More than once was I asked questions like "Who's Nate?" or "What's an OANST?" by those who overheard.

Ugh, yes. It's such a dirty feeling to be addicted to something that sucks.

EDIT: AiN you're just adorable.

This is really weird. Only today i was thinking.

"I go on the Forums way to much, it's like a fucking addiction."

Actually earlier today i went on the internet, went out to get some tea, came back in and there was the forums.

Without even realising it. I really do have a problem.

We all need fucking rehab.

Oddworldforums isn't yet our life is it?

I managed to escape it for a few years, but it's pull was too strong. I'd like to say I'm just a casual poster and I do this for the lulz in my spare time, but I can't. OWF is some serious shit.

I know right, my family and my flatmates know about this site, as do my close online homies who I haven't yet managed to persuade to join. It's ridiculous.

I strongly advise against this.

Yeah well, it was a pretty awesome trolling whilst it lasted <3.

Worst thing is, the only other website I visit when I'm not buying records off Amazon is the one that hosts my e-mail service. This forum is the main fucking website. If the computer's on, this forum is, even if I'm not on it. I'm fucking sad, and I hate to admit that.

But... She's kinda right.


Is it just an online persona you enjoy being, or are you like that irl too?

The stupid bitch thing was a joke. Come on.

This is me. I'm an asshole. That's not to say I'm verbally abusive towards my wife. I just refuse to walk through life, treating every fuck as my buddy. My friendship is earned, not given. Also, friends or no, if something stupid is said, I will probably laugh. Or mock. Which goes back to me going to being an asshole.

Oh.. i knew that. I forgot to remove that bit. I don't think anyone thinks you're a wife beater.


Anyway I was just curious.
I wonder if people have different personas off- and online.

I'd like to think that if I wasn't so self conscious offline I'd be pretty damn similar to how I am on here.

I feel that in real life, I come across as less of a moron, I think due to the fact that during activity in real life I'm not relaxing, but thinking and making myself of some use. When I read what I have posted online, I feel more like I use the internet to relax my brain rather than to stimulate it (unless I'm doing some kind of research, but that tends to be a pain, as I like to learn from a reliable source).

I'm determined to find out. I added you on live for a reason. Because xbox live qualifies as offline, right. Right?

I find myself coming here since I kind of cycle through stuff when I'm online:

(Boot up Firefox)
Type in 'o', OWF pops up automatically, click dat shit.
Lurk or post
Go to youtube or Hotmail.
Go to 4chan.
Go to the Orange Box Forums
Go back to OWF
Etc...

I haven't thought about this place as "Oddworld Forums so much as "Those forums with those people that I know marginally well."

I mean, I joined here in '06. Didn't post much until '07, and BAM, 3000 posts. Shit, dawgs.

Except that 'Dorian' is actually what he calls his wang.




Now go back and reread all DI's recent posts with that in mind. Enjoy!










Also, no more discussion of stuff in this thread. Leave it for the voting.

This has been said before and nobody listened. What makes you think they'll listen now?

I'm starting to suspect that Pilot and Used:) have actually swapped accounts. That was way too much of Used:) snarkiness to have been Justin behind the keyboard.

And in answer to your question, because each time the conversation ended... it just so happens that a new one started again. And because the next non-vote (or not about voting) post will be infracted.

I vote for more votes, plz. :)


EDIT: For Used.

So I guess no more people are voting? :(

I haven't been here very long and I don't know everyone very well so i'll be sitting in the back cheering everyone on this time round.

I never thought being the most annoying could fill someone with so much happiness, you sure showed me Mars.

DAAAAAAMMMMNNNNNNN!!!!!


How can Ackro possibly be more annoying! Do I have to do the unspeakable!?

Don't make me...

Ackro's a furry. There's your answer to how he can possibly be more annoying. You're like Jesus H. Christ himself in comparison to Ackro.

ARE YOU ASKING ME TO DO THE UNSPEAKABLE?

To be nailed to a cross and die?


Yes.

That's an infraction to MarsMudoken for first degree spam. Keep it up, your next one will get you temporarily banned. Make sure to note also that being annoying now will not help you win any awards, since these awards are for last year.

Edit: My mistake, this one gets you banned, but only for a couple of days. After that, a third temporary ban is only one infraction away. Man, the new infractions system is hard work.

So far I've been lenient in just deleting spam from this thread. Nate has too, and deleted so far are 56 posts by 16 authors. So I'll make it explicit. Any further posts not directly related to the awards (including replies to this post) will earn their author an infraction.

i think i was quite annoying since i am vorarephile after all.
but i doesn't matter , a virtual award isn't gonna change my life , but it is gonna make a diff with my status here.
