Why I'm leaving this forum
 

I’m leaving this forum now. Yesterday I posted a series of five polls about the relative merits of Sonic Youth albums. I got a series of “hilarious” sarcastic comments from EveryNeurotic and HaydenAsche, who seemed to take objection to a SY fan discussing aspects of the band’s music in this way.

EveryNeurotic had the dignity to later apologise.

Then HaydenAsche posted here:

to call me an “Annoying little fucker.”

It was just five polls, for God’s sake! Hardly worth insulting someone over. Why not just read only the threads you find interesting?

Obviously, he feels threatened that his "private club" has been invaded in some way. New members are clearly not welcome. Hayden, if you were a real SY fan you might want to be a bit less elitist and childish about things. But I doubt you even like the music much.

So I’ll say bye now.

And thanks to everyone else, who seem like great people – good luck putting up with these idiotic schoolyard bullies.

I’m off to listen to some Sonic Youth.

don't leave the forum just yet, there are always people around that you won't like... just don't pay attention

dont leave Thurston Hunger, dont leave just cuz you had a bad experiance with 2 boardies, sure there are some very opinionated people on here but at the end of the day it is a message board where people post their opinions. stick around man, sometimes i see people getting all hot and bothered on here, just take a back seat and let em on with it. some people love to drop that "shock" factor on you... just do what i do and take refuge in the sound of it flying over your head.

stick wit us, the friendly boys :)

dont leave, we have all had our fair share of bad comments and arguements with people on here (mostly atari2600 and khchris) (ha ha ha) but we all get over it and forgive each other.

dont leave over this, its so stupid.

hey man, don't leave the board. to be honest i dislike many aggressive and offensive posts by random posters, but anyway, there are still so many people who are worth staying.
this 'private club' is made by (imo) newbie kids, most of them flooded tha old board in it's last days, so prolly they feel like owners and main dudes on this one. i don't want to insult with them at all, so i just ignore posts i dislike or find childish and annoying. and there are tons of such posts. there is also a quite nice features that allow you to make posts by dudes you don't like just dissappear. so, there is future for you around. as slavo said, stick with friendly dudes.

Gooey is one of the funniest goddamn posters on this board. He's brutally, deliciously honest. I value forthrightness far more than gratuitous ass-kissing.

Pardon my potential rudeness, but is this where we're all supposed to cry, "No, Thurston Hunger, don't leave us! Don't let the offensiveness of a select few posters deter from this utopia of Sonic <3 and fabricated sense of community! They're MEANIES, ignore them, be yourself, let's go vegan together!"

Toughen up, boy. What are you going to do, skulk away in bitter indignance every time someone says something you don't agree with? If that's your attitude, then the board is better off without you.

You seem like a nice kid. Don't be a pussy.

harsh but true

so you're basically leaving because two people don't like you?

worst reason i ever heard.

once again Truncated speaks the truth, kinda like you're friend that told you in the shop the cordroy jacket you really really wanted to buy is actually stink and looks like shit. its not nice to hear but sometimes the truth hurts. everyone needs that friend, its combines elements of harshness and truth. you're like my Dad truncated and i dont mean that in a bad way, when all the chips are down and whatever the situation, my Dad puts a whole different slant on a topic that make you think.... i dunno... differently.

come on, look at the bright side. you have a quarter as many posts as i do but more rep than me. so someone likes you at least.

stay or the cat will come back from the dead to haunt you.

wow dude yr a whiney little bitch! get the fuck off this forum!

ignore that sarcastic comment.

I'm with slavo and shentov on this one, you always have the choice of selecting who you want to view and be around. Don't leave because of Everyneurotic and Haydenasche, sure there style take s some getting used to and you learn to not care so much. truncated has some valid points also about said users, and you should take time to think about this decision of yours.

Is this thread going to go on for a while? Shall I make everyone a nice cup of tea for the fun? Biscuits, anyone?

nah, i think i'll just have a beer please.
hurray for internet drama.

fuck you asshole, i don't like you either

Don't leave, Haydenasche just has a way of breaking in new people. If you survive it you come out a better person or something. It is sort of like going through boot camp and then coming out as part of the few, the proud, the incredibly brainwashed, the marines.

HaydenAsche - forever burning a fire of slaps in the face and mischief.

take into accounts something:

thurston hunger comes here, starts 3000 polls in one day, floods the damn board. and what are his polls about? pitting one sy album against the other, i find super stupid. what is this, reality tv? is this survivor or something? i found it really lame, and i made it well known by mocking the threads.

i'm all for discussing sy and sy album, but i mean a real intelligent discussion, not just click on a mouse like some kind of trained parrot.

i apologized to the dude, toughen up man and have some fun while you are here, even though most people seem to have lost their sense of humor here.

where you goin? this is the only place online to commune with the worldwide sonic brotherhood. stay and talk to me about rock music.

I had to do it.

Word. Like I said "Major Overkill".

Oh, I forgot.

Thurston Hunger, if you are leaving the forum you should leave the PM function as well. Your less-entertaining sarcasm and stupid overused comments to my age bore me.

Good day.

LOL! Too funny.

I like peanuts and pecans.

Lol, i wonder what youre like in person ? Are u this well spoken and rude to your mates?

Yes. Next question, please.

hilarious shit. i want to hand everyone a kleenex. for fuck's sakes. hysterical hissy fits. if i lever leave the board is because the melodrama ceases to be ridiculous & becomes just pathetic. fortunately we have a few lucid minds around to save this craphole. yes, you know who you are, im not licking your asses in the asslick thread. now i want to start a poll about the biggest fucking crybaby in this board. ha ha ha.

Start it. This forum is full of a bunch of pussies who can't take honesty. If they weren't fucking twats I wouldn't have to tell them they were twats.

Hahahah, you're leaving for that? I've got insulted plenty for lame-ass sig images and for looking "Scene", and even for my "Do you like Sonic Youth" poll, but I'm not leaving for it. Gimmie some kudos before you leave.

ha hah. the pussy. but i love the pussy. it's a religious matter. we need a new word: short-shitters? panty-creamers? pathetic bitches? mah.... i wont start a poll, i don't think you can have that many options, ha ha ha.

but i have picked my winner already & it's one that doesn't really cry but manipulates & throws raging fits under cover of "having a discussion" & then calls himself persecuted... ha ha hah... what a puddle of human vomit... :D

anyway you start the poll if you want. my gift to you. go and enjoy yourself.

..and Kudos to HaydenAsche for calling him an annoying lil' fucker

i would rep him myself but i have to spread my seed elsewhere first.... :D

Kudos noted.

its all kickin off... shame this didnt happen when i was in work today and had loads of time to see how it pans out. fuck it.. lets all be hippies and love people...
Thurston Hunger - just slag him back if he calls you an annoying little fucker, it hardly merits you leaving the board forever.
Hayden - you are like Truncated said "shamelessly, heartlessly mean" but fuck it "bless you" cuz every message board needs one.. dont they?

Yes. They do. I'm not so much mean as I am blatantly honest. Get over it.

good, i'm glad

ha ha. hippies suck. one day they will make good cattle for carnivores. more blatantly honest people, please. funny, i don't read it as a lack of good manners-- on the contrary, honesty is less irritating than the appeasing contortions of weasels.

DIE HIPPIE DIE!!!

Though I may be some what of a hippie. I find Hayden to be funny, I mean...I think he's called me a loser or something of like before. But damn, its a message board. Who cares?

Pansy.
