whether this thread is relevant to you or not, and whether or not you are included when i say "all of you", "boys", or "girls" should be blindingly obvious.

boys: you are all suck-ups to the girls and are now starting to fight each other to be either the "alpha male" or the "nicest guy" or whatever other "genius schemes" you may have. news flash: girls are human beings, just like you. you should treat them as simply "other people", not "a girl".

girls: you should never have thought that it was relevant or necessary to advertise that you are girls to start with, you brought this upon yourselves.

all of you: it is extremely unlikely any of you will ever meet each other, and having an internet girlfriend was never a source of bragging rights. and no, nobody is going to send you pictures of their tits, holy shit. also, stick figures should never be considered art* past the point of a descriptive diagram. that's just lazy.


that is all i have to say, now either hang your heads in shame or get angry at me, i don't care which.


*: i do, however, acknowledge that stick figure animation is a valid art form and stepping stone towards higher forms of animation.



addendum: this thread will likely achieve nothing. however, i am open to discussion on the issue. i feel like an old grandpa telling the kids to behave.

You saved yourself with the acknowledgement of stick art being a relevant stepping stone for advanced artwork. Besides that topic though I agree with your post. Gonna edit it, though, so it's not as offensive but still delivers the same message.

Remember that Australian hermaphrodite girlfriend you told me you had? I never found out how bad you were fucking with me.

I don't want to get another infraction for "start" an argument. But thanks for pointing that out, I don't like to be treated differently because of my gender, when I got here a lot of people knew already about it, and then it just spread all over the forum.

Ok I'm done here. I just needed to post that.

And so, other than showing that people's egos are way too big, and even using yours as an example, what is the point of this hate thread?

Scarecrow, I am amazed at the risk that you are taking when you post this, yet impressed by your bravado.

A lot of famous people who contributed a lot, like scooty, got banned for doing stuff not as bad as this. (which brings up the subject if they deserved to be banned, but that is for another time)

I am just saying that all this will accomplish is to encourage people to enflate their egos even more, in order to defend themselves.


I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt and presume that they will actually consider what I am saying instead of just jumping to the worst possible conclusion.

I appreciate your point though. However, if people do respond in the manner you have predicted, it will really only serve to cause me to believe that they are not worth my effort to improve them as human beings. Their loss, really, as pretentious as that sounds.

It is also worth noting that I stopped fearing bans a very long time ago.

That was a social experiment with a troll pretending to be a gay guy pretending to be a hermaphrodite pretending to be a slutty girl named Sasha on the forums. My goal was to gain an understanding of the psyche of the people who go onto a forum purely to attract attention to themselves. The other mods in the bat cave eventually berated me for taking that experiment a bit too far, so I stopped that. Having said that, I did learn much.

My goal wasn't to "get" anybody, I was just maintaining my act in case somebody decided to go and ruin everything.

i agree that the content of this forum is completely irrelevant in most cases. however i believe people will be better off if they don't waste their time trying to convince a girl on the internet to pay attention to them. hell, maybe i'll even make a difference (pfft)
