About the troll thing. I would have sworn, when I first started reading the thread, that he was just somebody's alt account and was just making this all up and that someone would be all like "nice try alt account of blahblahblah." But when no one did, I began to think he was just messing around and wasn't really serious. I gave him a serious response, but I am still not entirely sure if he was being genuine in his post, because it seems a tad on the silly side, but you know, whatever.

Oh, and that is for the last 2 pages btw...

Anyways - Then I guess you could do that specifically (eg. in this thread) rather than to be generally hostile! The latter won't teach anyone anything good, will it?? I get the frustration, though.

As for liking people, should you have to [pretend to] like someone in order to be courteous or respectful??

Not saying this in criticism of you guys, or exclusively wrt this specific case... just generally curious

I've a hard time figuring out what flies and what doesn't, in this the most actively moderated forum I've ever joined.

EDIT: Man, none of our experiences seem to match at all... my experiences with dealing with customers (and seeing others do the same!) have been almost exclusively positive!

Bummer about your crappy day, though. I saw there was a tea-party taking place nearby, that might help peace

[bbqrocks]

but when he is fourteen, posting useless things and generally acting like a person of his age

Should I take offense?

[Aimless]

Why is respectful treatment something that has to be earned?

[Dissy]

Shit.  Guys, I got a girl pregnant and she doesn't want to abort.  What should I do?

[Scrambled Egg Machine]

Must we do this?

[J-cob9000]

he came into some other thread a few weeks ago, i believe, and immediately said something like "i'm fourteen. i'm awesome" and everyon was kind of like "...okay. whatever." and then he started acting like a jerk because...i don't know...we didn't instantly approve of him? it was ridiculous, anways.

er.. I wouldn't do that. link please?
I want full-blown proof of this.


Okay, i need to say something.
You've all got a mom right?
Or at least foster parents or something?
Have you never heard her say, "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all."?
Same thing applies on the internet. There's a reason your browser has a back button.
Seriously, if you don't like a thread or something in it, leave. You don't have to.. up your rep or something by insulting the OP, in fact, most people would probably like you more if you just left.
I'm sure you will all find some "omg epic phail" in this but seriously, you tell me to grow up but I'm at least six years younger than most of you. I think that the rest of you need to first.

And yeah, i got pretty..
douchey?
But let's say that you're fourteen and are being verbally fucking gang raped. What would you do?
I'm sure most of you would say that you would just 'be cool' or something. But you'd want to defend yourself.

And yeah, sorry for calling Pokemon 'gay'. I don't usually say that, but it's not like I'm talking about somebody that way. It's not like I don't like gay people, I do in fact have three friends who are openly gay. So yeah.

And you can't say that I'm acting like a douche when the rest of you are acting the way you are.
Also, how is calling some gay much different than calling someone a bag used for vaginal cleaning?
You people are messed up.

[Jimmy the Squid]

Must we do this?

Yes.

If the point is not belaboured to an astounding degree, how will he learn?

Edit: Oh mate, not a strong move on your part. Especially the bit about having gay friends how we should all grow up ALL OF IT!

[Gemmwah]

Dear God please just stop.

I would like you a lot more if you would just leave.

[Scrambled Egg Machine]

Dude, just give up, cut your losses, and leave. You're just embarrassing yourself. Stop.

[bbqrocks]

If we all stay very still, maybe it will go away. (I typed this before your response, and it is directed at the thread as the general entity in question, not you)

Also, how is calling some gay much different than calling someone a bag used for vaginal cleaning?

Well, y'see..Objectifying somebody as a bag used for vaginal cleaning is obviously a falsehood, and whilst psychologically damaging, it's not exactly changing or putting down their way of life. Using the term gay in a derogatory fashion, however, is putting down somebody's way of life.

You've all got a mom right?

Have you never heard her say, "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all."?

Yes, but c'mon...What percentage of human reaction would be wiped out if it was a cardinal sin to break? Hell, more than 60% is my estimate.

Fuck it, I update my post every time I get a 'this posted whilst ur writtin lulz', and this must be the 5th time on this message.

[sean]

I think its time, no? Enough has been said.

[ledhendrix]

I'm trying to take you seriously Umbreon, but the way your write out your posts just offends my eyes. It would be far easier for people to take you seriously if you didn't write in such a childish way.

[Dissy]

Wait, what about MY situation.  This thread is perfect for it.  I need halp!

[Leinad]

I would say rob a bank so you can pay for child support.

EDIT: That would be the first ever amputation with a flame thrower!

[bbqrocks]

I'd say your situation is closer to 'haelp'.

Seriously, can we just let this die? Y'know, amputate before the infection spreads?

[J-cob9000]

Childish way?
And how is that? Sure, I use too many new lines. It's just a habit of mine.
I IM too much.
But yeah, someone close this.
You guys are all such douches.

[pwhodges]

Why is respectful treatment something that has to be earned?

Quite right.

Guys, not being nice to someone - anyone - is a sign of arrogance, lack of confidence, and immaturity.  Can you all say, hand on heart, that you have never in your life been a bit naive or even stupid about something in your turn?  Good-natured ribbing is one thing, but that is not what we seen in parts of this thread.  It is actually easier and less stressful to make a habit of being respectful with people you don't know; and if that doesn't work out, well, just leave it be - there should be plenty else to occupy your minds more fruitfully.

Man please don't let this thread be locked. I love it so much.

SO MUCH!

Nice honesty there.

[Scrambled Egg Machine]

That wasn't sarcasm.
