we all know everyone hates me so....

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

so you'll all be pleased that my web connection will be terminated in eight days. apperently verizon my carrier had so contract stipulations that they never sent me and i violated them. aparently a wireless network card is for email and web browsing exclusively. i figured that if they said "unlimited access" they meant unlimited acccess, but i come to find out that anything from downloadind to streaming to playing games to talking in forums isn't covered in my plan. unlimited, huh? unlimited indeed. well since this card is my only access point for at least the next 3 months to a year i won't be bothering you guys anymore. but thats okay because you don't like me anyways.

I kind of remember him, but I don't remember him saying anything of enough consequence to merit our hate.


Oh yeah, I forgot.

Yeah, if you check out his posts, it seems he mainly hung out in toys and Cyber/Arm/Energon/whatever, talking about Cybertron. And he likes PSP, apparently.

what the **** is it with the internet?

there should be some kind of test before you are allowed on it:

If you post on a message board and no one responds do you:
a) think nothing of it and move on to other things that interest you
or
b) assume everyone hates you?

If you are new to a message board and you are acting like a bit of a dick and someone calls you on it do you:
a) apologise and get to know the locals
or
b) assume every hates you?

If someone on the internet doesn't respond the exact way you hoped they would because they are not ****ing psyhcic do you:
a) accept that that's perfectly understandable
or
b) assume everyone hates you?

Answers:
If mostly a)'s - you probably preffered the cominc
If mostly b)'s - do not pass Go, do not collect £200.

Hah! I knew it! I knew we had a comic bias! Take that, Autobot 420!


I guess everyone must hate you.



if you're too high to understand, that was a joke.

yeah I get it just beacuse I'm high dosen't mean I don't undrestand, and I never said I thought anyone on this site hated me. and I don't care that this site has a comic bias I enjoy posting on this forum and I like reading everyone's opinion even if I don't agree with it. In fact even though most people's opnion's on this fourm differ from mine I think for the most part you guys are a pritty cool bunch.

oh yeah to continue with the overall theam of this thread WHO ARE YOU???
Autobots transform and........... wait what was I saying again? Dude Roddimus I'm so baked right now.

Umm... if someone locks your topic because it's identical to an already-existing topic, that doesn't mean they hate you.


There are currently over 200 topics without replies. Just browsing through the first couple of pages of topics, we find:

Many are by Obfleur, Predabot and Aaron Hong.

Some* are by Best First, myself and impactor returns.

A grand total of 4 are by dexom.

From this, we can clearly deduce that the number of unanswered topics bears no relation whatsoever to how well-liked/disliked a member is.

Or, in other words, you don't see Obby, Aaron, Pred, Besty, impy or myself moaning about how we're so hated by the rest of the TransFans due to the unrepresentative unpopularity of our choices of topics.


*There are around 50 members with unanswered topics, but 7 is a much more manageable number to deal with. Plus, who knows who half of those obscure members were? They're all hated by us, anyway...

I disagree with that, to some extent, but that's for a different topic.

Anyway...

Maybe his most replied-to topic to date, even.

No, no it isn't.

Do what I do. When you start feeling like you've killed one too many topics, start a religion thread.

THAT'S where I remember him from! Starting identical topic guy!

I'm serious.

Given his number of total posts, 4 is a pretty high number, IMO.

No, we just suspect that certain members are running PM campaigns to boycott our threads but we keep quiet about it because that's apparently civilised behavior...
