You annoy me.

Big_Bro_Slig222 · #62 06-25-2003, 11:33 PM

We haven't been doin' to well on new members have we lately?

Disgruntled Intern · #63 06-26-2003, 02:23 AM

Oh me oh my, Mr.Concept certainly does have me in a metaphorical head lock, doesn't he?

Just as you claimed no one would care about you constantly bitching at me, I'm sure no one cares about abe babe claiming I have a "track history of doing strange things".

Don't contradict yourself. It makes you look oh so silly.

Indeed. They either start arguments or have terrible spelling and punctuation.
Whatever did happen to lindsay?

Jacob · #65 06-26-2003, 06:00 PM

I don't think Kristen is in any position to state about peoples "strange goings-on" due to her track record with Justin...

:

because I can handle people like you.

I am soooo moist right now, how about you show me abit of handling, eh? Eh?

Well, she did. Now that I know that DI has a habit of doing that sort of stuff, I can accept that he did not mean anything by it, and am therefore no longer at odds with him.

I am not contradicting myself. I stated what Kristen said because I felt it was important. I said that I didn't feel that people cared about the fact that I bitched at you, because I did not feel that was important. It may seem contradictory, but it actually isn't when you think about it - my reason for contacting Kristen was to resolve this, not to try and prove some silly point that I am great and your an asshole (which is of course, NOT true, your the one who is running things around here.). (I do think about these things before I post you know.)

I don't beleive in arguments, I think open minded discussion, where all the comments are mutually beneficial to all the parties are much better. Not to sound hippyish (probably too late there), but we really shouldn't be treating each other like we are here only to be on bad terms with all the other forumers - or in competition with them.

Now let us not waste our articulate and observant talent in an argument, that just contradicts our own intelligence - we should be using all this energy to make this a better place.

Here is my opinion: Your forum is a happytown; its general purpose seeks to enforce positive opinion, or only allow the expression of it. Negative opinions are shunned here.

See I'm not as all sure what you were talking about here but, wasn't it along the lines of letting us talk badly about things?

Disgruntled Intern · #68 06-27-2003, 03:49 AM

You dislike arugements, and prefer open minded discussion...yet you barrage me with PM's in which you call me vulgar names.

Most contradictory, Mr.Concept.

No, I mean't negative opinions, not arguing. If you don't like me, at least tell me why and I will endevour to put a stop to it (Unless of course it is something stupid like "Your being gay" or whatever). I can see why negative opinions are pretty much banned here, because all of the people that are most likely to use them, use them at other peoples expense. Perhaps if you made any attempt to do something constructive in this thread, rather than accuse, and disrespect, perhaps I would allow you that credit from my part.

Firstly, I will point out that the difference between a PM and a forum discussion is most different. And "vulgar"? What are you, 80 years old? Now I made an attempt to make it up to you, and clear the whole thing up, yet you go ahead and make things worse again, when you had the chance to accept our differences with some dignity - I am sorry, but you can't possibly expect me to show you any kind of respect when you do something like that can you?

Your right, I do prefer a good, constructive and open minded discussion, but it doesn't mean I can't resort to anger when I am provoked - Which is what you did and what I did aswell.

I do not see why I should dignify any of your unwanted and disrespectful questions with such a well thought out response, but to be honest, your ignorance really does strike a nerve. I can't begin to understand how much it will take for you to understand that no argument will lead to the glory most people make out it will. Arguments occur in the presence of ignorance, surely that is not the image any of us want to portray here?

Lets just drop it.

4ourth.

Disgruntled Intern · #70 06-28-2003, 01:03 AM

Don't you understand? I'm playing the ignorance card with you because I'm stuck at work. I have no one else to talk to, and my laptop is my only source of amusement.

I know you weren't contradicting yourself. I was just providing myself with some immature entertainment.

That's all.

I'm really not as ignorant as I've made myself out to be. But's it sure is fun to be misleading.

Majic · #71 06-28-2003, 01:35 AM

Whoop de doo, I just spent a weak with my only technology correspondence beings fans and lights. And what do I spy? A new member, many long posts, and bitching. SInce I'm a lazy bum (a tired one at that) I'll just leave it simple:

Hi Fourth Concept (if your still here, I haven't read all the later posts)

***Alcar*** · #72 06-29-2003, 05:27 AM

Actually Fourth Concept, PMs here are treated the same as threads/posts. Anything we wouldn't allow on threads/posts aren't allowed through PMs.

Facsimile · #74 06-29-2003, 08:11 AM

Not meaning anyone to think I am talking about anyone here, but wouldn't it be damn cool to be able to put customisable people in GTA3? Then I could mow down all my friends and foes alike!

***Cloverfield*** · #75 07-01-2003, 03:36 AM

Hmmm, I can't recall calling DI strange. I did say he was a good moderator, but he does close topics sometimes without letting people know the reason. Although I've seen other mods do that at other forums too, so it's not quite strange.

And Jacob, do not mention the name Justin to me again ... I wish to forget his very existance. Strange, he certainly was.

Abe Babe...

Fourth Concept has been exaggerating... Now that's no way to make yourself look better.

Abe Babe...

This post, though not particularly offensive, is the reason I left. I am back now to tell you all this because I think it is important to know.

Abe Babe contacted me after I complained of DI. She responded by saying that DI has a track history of closing threads for no reason, and often in an uncalled for bout of strangeness that gives an air of confusion afterwards.

Later she completely denies doing it. I have the email in my "read mail" folder, and I will forward it to anyone who asks for it.

DI has actually admitted to doing this sort of thing because he is bored, but she still denies it? Yep, bye bye, I'm outta here.

Disgruntled Intern · #78 07-03-2003, 12:03 AM

Right.

I close threads because I'm bored.

***Alcar*** · #80 07-03-2003, 04:33 AM

I agree with you Fourth Concept that DI is absolutely shocking and will endeavour to serve you for the rest of my life. I mean, you've left us with proof that we all suck, therefore to make sure I don't suck I'll leave with you.

Jesus! Get a grip, Abe Babe was most likely talking about me. I used to close a few unneccessary threads, and DI had complained about it. She must just have got it mixed up.

DI's a fine Moderator, though I think he's a little harsh on some of the members. They eventually turn out to be whackos anyway. Whether or not they were like that before DI pounced upon them is still confusing me

We have done nothing wrong by you, you've given your opinions of the forum. And the people that inhabit the forum have given you, their opinions of you.

Internet mercenarys are getting reallllllllly annoying now.

Canned Gabbiar · #81 07-03-2003, 07:08 AM

Oh my god... what a way to return. I'm gone for a couple of weeks because of my other commitments and I return to find a thread of pointless bickering.

Jacob and the other people (not necessarily DI since he always does things like this) who were having a go(seriously having a go at him) at The Fourth Concept, way to give others a bad impression about the forums. And to the Fourth Concept, I know the others were harsh on you but they wouldn't have done so if you had not retaliated against Jacob. With that said, I'll just say what I usually say to new members(i'm assuming that 4thConcept is still here and that his 'bye bye' comment was not serious):

Hello! Welcome to Oddworldforums and don't flame or spam. This has been a Canned Gabbiar message. Have a nice day!

Facsimile · #82 07-03-2003, 07:32 AM

He... came... back... ... again?

Canned Gabbiar · #83 07-03-2003, 07:35 AM

Fax, are you talking about me or are you talking about 4th Concept? I never said I'd leave the forums. I never do (except with that anime-forums... that got boring)

.

***Cloverfield*** · #84 07-03-2003, 08:08 AM

Maybe you should leave. Go and run your own forums instead of telling us how to run ours. I'm sick of all you big heads that are coming on here lately telling us what to do. If you don't like it, don't come here. Simple. Honestly, I'd prefer a spamming n00b.

I don't care if you call me a liar. I have the original email in my sent items. On looking at it, I did word it rather vaguely, so maybe you're interpreting it differently to I am, but it still does't call anyone strange. I do not deny that I said DI closed threads, I said I did not call him strange. That's the only thing I said I didn't do ... that I didn't use those words. If anything, you were the one saying I said something I didn't. And where as calling someone strange isn't an insult in itself, I didn't like the idea of someone going and re-wording what I said in an email. I wasn't even going to respond to your email as the post had been re-opened by the time I saw it, but I thought I'd respond out of courtesy.

As for all of the closing of threads, a lot of that happened when I was going through some serious personal problems, so really I wasn't really sure who was closing the threads. So yeah, maybe I messed up in thinking it was DI. But at least I admitt to making a mistake of judgement. But even if it was, who cares. Mods at all forums close threads all the time for no given reason, it's fairly standard. And unlike some people, I had to get my life sorted out rather than worry about an internet forum where some of the problems started in the first place.

Anyone who's a regular on here, will know that this kind of tone is not my usual. But people like you really piss me off. Acting like you're all high and mighty and better than anyone else. As I said before, if you don't like it here, leave. There are lots of other places on the web you can go. Maybe they'd like your instructions on how to run things better than we do. It seems other members would be glad to see you go anyway.

I don't think it's a case of us not letting people have their say here, as we do, but it's more a case of people like you being not liked here, by both staff and members alike.

Abe Babe...

Jacob · #85 07-03-2003, 01:36 PM

If anybody actually cared to notice...i stopped posting in this forum a while back...people who want to point the finger at me please insert it in my anus beforehand...thankyou

Abe Babe...

Wow, you go! Stating your right to a freedom of speech every time you make an opinion! Yadda yadda, dont like it dont come back, yeah yeah heard it before. Ever heard of improvement through trial and error? That is why companies use complaints systems you know. Half your problem here is because you are such a "Great webmaster" you think you know everything and think that the world will shape to work for you. MAKE A COMPLAINTS AREA YOU IDIOT, THEN MAYBE YOU CAN CHANGE WHAT IS BAD ABOUT THE SITE, RATHER THAN PRETEND YOU GOT IT PERFECT ALREADY CAUSE YOU CAN'T TAKE THE CRITISM.

Screw you! So I admit I didn't memorise that email either, but your email was towards the implication that DI does close threads without giving reason from time to time. The fact that DI did do this, without giving a reason, and in strange circumstances, adds up to alot of circ evidence pointing the finger at you knowing he does strange things like this for no reason when you replied like you did.

I am now officially pushing your buttons to piss you off and annoy you. AND I am Reese Charles, AND I ****ed all your moms, AND any other irritating thing I could possibly annoy you with.

(Well, okay maybe I am not Reese Charles, and maybe I didn't make sweet love to your mom, but still this must be pissing you off right? Oh come on! Smash a few plates, just for me!)

Jacob, take me.

Hey, we have one of those. It's called forums suggestions & Feedback, you dumb putz.

Facsimile · #89 07-18-2003, 08:10 AM

Wow. It's so incredibly obvious that you are Reece.
Firstly, you keep saying that you have left, but you still come back.
And second, just now you said 'Reece Charles', but since you came before him, you had to hear about him from us, and we only ever mentioned 'Reece'. And if we did mention 'Charles' it would have been once or twice and you would not have remembered it.

And DI made my other point.
Not that I know what a 'putz' is.

Disgruntled Intern · #90 07-18-2003, 12:34 PM

Though I checked the IP addresses...it wouldn't surprise me if fourth was jacob.

The way they 'feed off eachother' is almost too obvious. Jacob is never that nice to somewhat newbies, and newbies never really get the chance to say anything to jacob.

How strange.
