That really wasn't directed at you specifically.

And actually, I'm not "of the goth sub culture" by any stretch of the imagination.

not to be mean honestly, but if your not a goth "by any stretch of the imagination" then why are you a member of the Gothic.net community? I'm sure there is a reason I just don't know what it is

James, I think you've stood in the hailfire here long enough (through 10 pages of this thread) that you've earned my respect. And while I could sense your frustration with having some stereotypes applied to you that weren't appropriate (and this community should know a little something about that) you've never played the "I'm so misunderstood" card.

POS didn't read enough or was speaking about other people in the subculture that do spend too much time saying that kind of thing.

Option #2.

I like the conversation here.

Why the fuck else would you join a forum?

Cadaver · 01-11-2010, 06:39 PM

Come to think of it, the Furs that generally play that card are usually...well let's just say...the ones that are...Understood.

That or they are so new to the fandom that they probably shouldn't even be playing the card.

PortraitOfSanity · 01-11-2010, 06:41 PM

I can see the logic there, actually.

paleghost · 01-11-2010, 06:42 PM

Understandably so. I just don't understand what would draw you here in the first place. Understand that I like to understand people, I came here to Gothic.net because I am Gothic, I'm honestly not trying to be mean. I just want to know

Originally? I think one of Godslayer Jillian's posts on anarchy showed up in a google search for one of my papers, and I came in and had a big discussion with him and JCC, and ended up staying.

paleghost · 01-11-2010, 06:49 PM

See that makes sense. Like don't get me wrong it's cool. The world needs more goth-friendly people.

PortraitOfSanity · 01-11-2010, 06:51 PM

I'd actually say the majority of the people on here aren't really goth...

So you might be in for a shocker, lol.

paleghost · 01-11-2010, 07:00 PM

That would be actually quite hilarious, I'm so Gothic I'm one of the only goths on Gothic.net. That's great

Solumina · 01-11-2010, 07:18 PM

This site didn't get its name from the subculture, it got its name from the literary genre, just so you know.

paleghost · 01-11-2010, 07:20 PM

O.O...huh...you know I never noticed that little thing under the name until you mentioned it. Ah well, it still cool

Yea, and that.

paleghost · 01-11-2010, 07:39 PM

weren't we talking about furries? when did the conversation become about me?

Solumina · 01-11-2010, 07:40 PM

I miss the literary contributions *tear* ah well the past is the past and we all must move on.

PortraitOfSanity · 01-11-2010, 07:44 PM

Duckman's diahrea poem was pretty spectacular...

werewolffan98 · 01-11-2010, 08:47 PM

Well i'm a furry as well,and my fursona is a fox.

PortraitOfSanity · 01-11-2010, 08:49 PM

Yea, that's not completely obvious at all.

paleghost · 01-12-2010, 05:12 AM

I'm not a furry, but If I was I think my "Fursona"(I've never heard that term before, and I don't like it) would be a fox as well. I don't know, just one of those things I think about when I'm left alone off my medication.

james"bloody tears" · 01-12-2010, 05:08 PM

You didn't really think I meant it took me ten pages, did you?

james"bloody tears" · 01-12-2010, 05:19 PM

yes i did its kinda how it sounded

Ben Lahnger · 01-12-2010, 05:29 PM

Even though we were having a respectful and even enjoyable conversation earlier in this thread?

Okay, taking you at your word and on the off chance someone wandering into this thread read it and took it the same way, let me reword my statement:

James, you've earned my respect and I think you've stood in the hailfire here long enough (through 10 pages of this thread.) And while I could sense your frustration with having some stereotypes applied to you that weren't appropriate (and this community should know a little something about that) you've never played the "I'm so misunderstood" card.
