Oops, I haven't been on here much tonight.

You were gone?

What color are you now?

Man, that is definitely a part time job. I haven't even done one shift here.

STOP BEING SO EMO

STOP MAKING ATTACKS

Seriously, most people have to go to real jobs or school and not have fun for a few hours out of the day. Being bummed when you have to leave something fun for one of these things is normal and certainly not Emo.

Especially when you get free of your job/classes and then enjoy life again.

"Emo" is a stereotype. When somebody thinks emo they think "OMG U CUT URSELF OMG".

But no- emo is a style, and a genre of music. You can have brown hair and still 'look' emo.
The stereotype of emo comes from the term "cutters".

That iz all.

for one thing that is a cute picture and thats what she was saying

#2 stating thats a cute picture means she is sucking up?

#3 he is her boyfriend and peeps got to be there for their S/O even if they aren't making the chocies you would

lighten up peeps 
(this goes for you too patrick)

well sorry everyone.
next time i'll make sure to sound old, pissed and jaded and talk about how everything everyone does sucks.
sorry for TRYING to be positive. I forgot that I'm supposed to hate everything that my boyfriend does. Next time i'll yell and rant and pretend I don't like anything.
hope you all are happy.

not really, at least it wont seem that way to a mod cuz they do not know your personal life or friends, which is why, even if its a friend that you enjoy teasing, or giving a hard time, you must keep it cival,

otherwise it just comes off as mean because we dont know
does that make sence?
Title: Re: LEAVING FOR A WHILE
Post by: NightLotus on February 16, 2009, 04:02:58 pm
eh, i would have said it was cute no matter who posted it... but i guess i'll just keep my opinions to myself. Everyone's been really bitter and rude here and its just kinda not fun... I might just leave for a while... i'm not having any fun being made fun of, and i don't see how you guys are having fun harping on my every little move. I'm sorry for being silly and trying to be cute, and being in love. I'll probably be back in a week or so...
I hope the forums get a little less hot-headed and pissy while I'm gone. I used to come here to relax and enjoy myself, but if I can't be myself without being made fun of i'll just go...

I'm being a bit "OMG! EVERYONE HATES ME EMOEMOEMO!!! LKAJSKLD:HASHKDFHKDFGFA" right now, but it does kinda feel that way. I think maybe everyone should lighten up just a bit and then we can all have civil/fun conversation.
and that picture WAS REALLY CUTE! if anyone had posted it i would have mentioned that. Its not sucking up to say that Something someone posts is cute! yes, he happens to be my boyfriend, but that wasn't at all a factor in me saying what i thought ^^

Yeah, well I don't know anyone personally and I'm not gonna point fingers, but I think there has just been a general influx of overly sentimental, drama-prone people who were drawn in by the most recent Kumoricon and it's respective mini-events.

Lotus: I'm sorry I guess I took it to far I didnt mean to upseat you ) : I'll tone it down.

and yeah the forums are a bit more dramatic now.... i dunno i think some of my favorite people took a brake and things got slow and a few imature things were said and a lotof people got upset. It makesme kinda sad ) : i wish sahara would come back (and now Lotus) and we could have the old group again

im not going to point any fingers cause thats a bit rude but i think one of the newer memebers we got was a bit imature, probally kinda young... not all younger ones can be like this (Dana i think is a fantastic and mature person and shes only 12) but i have seen a few on here that are.

There will always be newbies.  As we got older, the younglings will seem younger and younger.

And, of course 'we were never that young / dramatic / immature'.  ;)

Whenever it was that I first got my account, I kept being scared off by kids and drama and a general sense of WTF?

Me too... but there has been a large influx of people since after con last year... and they are like "the new ones who i don't know"
I don't know how many there actually are, mostly because i don't post outside of the spam forum... i don't even LOOK outside the spam forum ><
New people do sometimes make things a lot more fun though ^^

That was not intentional, but a side-effect of a possible misconfiguration of the SMF forum permissions (we have a somewhat complex setup) involving the permission to post to each forum area. It has happened before by accident when we've added people to the staff group, or changed group memberships, when we've done it slightly wrong.
