On my soap box.

Recommended Posts

You guys that think this is about my rep or whining either didn't read it or don't get what I'm trying to say.

It's about attitude.

I'm on many forums and they all have their badasses. The difference is that those forums consist of members from all over the world that will likely never meet. This place is different. I have met or will meet every respondent in this thread so far. Will those of you saying malicious things do so in person? No, probably not. If we meet, you'll probably be like, "hahaha dood i was jus jokin on that thread hahaha!" Why? What's the point?

I try to remember that many people have much different online personas than their meat space selves. I just don't understand treatin people like shit when you're likely gonna be riding with them later in the season. Or when you might need their help on the side of the road.

I'm a sarcastic asshole and I know I've said things that have rubbed people the wrong way, but I can say with certainty the things I say online I will tell to someone's face.

Understandable in a "let bygones be bygones" kinda way.

This may have happened when you met me last week. "Ohh, that's that asshole that was bitchin about my friends bike price, what a dick!"

:)

Ha! I forgot we met last week, didn't talk much unfortunately so I can't weigh in on all this stuff.

Oh and about the bike? She's crazy to ask for that (I can say that in this thread, might be watching the other one), but I said I'd post it for her as a favor. I also went after her for buying that as a first bike for oh so many reasons. So if you were wondering I really don't have any hard feelings. I'm also extreeeemely laid back in person. ;)

Not me. I'm the same in real life as I am on here. Most people don't like me. Who gives a fuck?

I'm guessing I'd feel the same way about your "meat space" as your "online perosna".

Boo-fucking-hoo....

If you knew which homos were giving you neg rep or whatever then you'd be even more ashamed of this thread. Peer pressure is a bitch and some of those fuckers are online way too much for their own 12-sided dice excuse for a life.

I've got 1 hand down my pants and 1 hand on my keyboard - everything is better now.

Those are kind of contradictory statements.

Zach is an alright guy though.

The first being a lie to justify online words.

The second being willing to say what you mean face to face.

and 2 e-beers for you. :D

This IS and WAS a VERY successful forum, even before you joined and got neg repped.

Just suck it up and deal. A little negative rep isnt the end of you eworld.

It blows my mind how much everyone has been bitching about rep lately. Quit yer cryin people. It doesnt mean anything. It just shows you if people agree with you or if they dont. Thats it. It doesnt mean you get less cookies.

Well, shit... I didn't get ANY cookies.... :(

Although I doubt it'll ever happen, I'd be more than happy to introduce myself to you should we ever meet.

If you REALLY think I'm hating, you're already taking this shit way too seriously. Personally, I'll call a spade a spade but I just dont have time for the hate.

You were crying. Whining too - not just in this thread, but in a couple others as well.

No, not really. I was remarking at how immature people are when faced with an opposing viewpoint on an internet forum.

I don't care about rep points.

you said you didn't read my whole post, why should I care about your assessment of me?

If you can't handle the internet, cancel it and go back to life w/out it, because it's still there. Most people enjoy having fun on the internet and lots of times at others expense. Why, because it's just a box connected to other boxes around the world. It's nothing to take so seriously. Some even use the net for blogging or diaries, some for getting stress out by fighting with strangers, some for porn, some for dating, etc..etc..

You get the point yet?

Who gives a shit.

Clam down now. I turned you green again then jagr added to it! But really the logs are checked and any bullsh*% neg reg is taken care of. Besides people with little or neg rep can't do much to your rep anyways!

So you guys DO let people off the hook & de-Neg what the membership has done?

With all my rep and $1, I might be able to buy a Pepsi.

LMAO! :lol::lol:

I read it all and that's what I got out of it. :dunno:

The whole time reading I was thinking that this guy is new to the internet. Me, I first logged on in 1999.

I can name 3 off the top of my head.......

1) Eric's about the Gap, where you even admitted HunterST took the heat off you

2) Lunatic's about DJjizzle

3) Now this one

BTW...... Your comment about this could be a successful board if we essentially follow your recommendations??? You might wanna check the membership #'s....... This place has been exploding for the last 6-12 months, so I think it's already hit that point.

Unfortunately, that has brought a lot of less than desirable "newbies" along with it

You don't think this place is different?

I do. I wasn't here when this place was started but I have to imagine the original purpose was to gather like minded individuals and facilitate riding and interacting in real life.

Well then, your remarks were whiny, and you come of like a nancy-boy.

I too am wondering why you seem to care so much. Maybe your shrink can clear that up for you? I'm certainly not qualified.
