My favorite definition of VF. Pure comedy gold.

No, I did not write it.

horrorgirl you need a better spell check:

2 entries found for devourer.
de·vour ( P ) Pronunciation Key (d-vour)
tr.v. de·voured, de·vour·ing, de·vours
To eat up greedily. See Synonyms at eat.
To destroy, consume, or waste: Flames devoured the structure in minutes.
To take in eagerly: devour a novel.
To prey upon voraciously: was devoured by jealousy.

but aside from that I don't particularly care if you don't like vampirefreaks or not... you are generalising about the population on there... plus horrorgirl should read her posts on this page and notice her grammatical errors and spelling mistakes...

And happy_dude the reviews are mostly done by members of the site and not the staff so what is reviewed is usually what the members like...

I have a few friends on there that like doom metal and a lot that like EBM...

Now if you dislike VampireFreaks that is your choice and as I have said your dislike of that site is of no concern of mine but when you insist that all the members are angsty teens and attention whores then I think you should at least check into that before you make such an accusation. I will admit that I've met people on VampireFreaks that do fit into the groups mentioned on here but I have met some really interesting and intelligent people on there also.

I don't tend to give much time to anyone that cannot hold a good debate or argument without harping on about spelling and grammar, as if someone were dyslexic I'd definately tell them to steer clear of this site if people are going to critisise them on spelling instead of intellectual content.

With that said I will leave you to it and seek some intelligent people on this site (I know there are some... there's 3 or 4 people on this thread who answered intelligently to members of VampireFreaks' input).

It’s actually WordPerfect. Since I have been quoting you it counts the ‘equal’ mark into your name, so that is why it showed up as incorrect. SO THERE! *sticks out tongue*

So everybody on here was supposed to read your obnoxious posts and agree with you? I guess there are unicorns prancing about where you live.

You must have just gotten home from school. How were the milk and cookies?

People will almost always think others are smart only if they think alike.

That was not meant to be challenging; it's just a remark.

I actually enjoyed the posts. They were readable, although I'd have preferred them if they were a little more laconic.
Nevertheless, I will never like VampireFreaks, especially because of the "unmoderated Sex Cult" I have already spoken about.
But as far you, Devourer, go, would you indulge me into being a regular on this site and open an introduction thread for yourself?
Just don't try to promote VF in every chance you get.

I didn't say you had to agree with me... in fact I like it when people don't as it's nice that everyone has a unique point of view and can put forward their views in an intelligent manner.

As for becoming a member of this site I would probably have done so anyway if I was introduced to the site properly. I am not here to promote VF at all, I have never directly said anything to defend the site although I personally like it.

Yes the unmodertaed sex cult (of which I am a member) can be slightly disturbing with young teenagers asking about sexual things but they generally recieve 1 of 3 responses usually which are either "you're too young", flaming or some in depth information about what they have asked so they can make an informed decision (it usually depends on what's asked and who's asking it).

Well, I can honestly say that I will never like you and that we will probably cross swords on here often. So be it. You are a condenscending ass. There, I said it.

I guess you meant " condescending " and if you meant "To descend to the level of one considered inferior or lower oneself." then I didn't as I refused to make an argument based on typing/spelling ability.

However if you meant "To deal with people in a patronizingly superior manner." Sorry but I deal with people the way I feel they act... if you act like an idiot then of course I will sound like I'm being patronizingly superior.

I have to agree with devourer. If for no other reason than the fact that he presents valid arguments, while those who disagree with him resort to petty and immature insults. I am a member of vampirefreaks, and yes, there are many idiots on that site, but you cannot judge an entire group by the actions of the few. I believe that is the very definition of prejudice. Besides, I would have to say everyone on this site is unintelligent and childish. If I were to judge you all by the comments of horrorgirl for instance.

*patiently* Right. But as your oh-so-tedious little friends have been informed more than once, few if any people on this site care what you think, as you've completely ignored the posting rules and just decided to do as you damn well please instead. If you can't observe something as basic as the join protocol, what makes you think you can put together an opinion worthy of notice on the part of anyone here?

Sigh...

Fuck off. Seriously.

Wow....this is the first time I have actually had to tell somebody that on here!

Oh shut up. Go home, slit your wrists, and then go post about it on that website. I am sure that you will get all the attention you need.

I found this thread by accident. I joined so I could post. I guess you believe your opinion should be valued above all others, because you spend every waking moment posting on this website instead of contributing to society. I really do not care about your protocol. Yes, I generally do what I damn well please. I know none of the people who have previously posted therefore I do not regard any of them as my friends. I have an opinion, I expressed that opinion. I guess it was worthy of notice, because you replied to it. Just because you do not agree with me does not mean my opinion is any less valid than your own.

P.S. Thank you, horrorgirl, for helping to prove my original point. First of all I do not cut myself. Secondly, I do not think of myself as "goth" or "emo". The very fact that you believe I cut myself shows that you believe that the actions of some members of the site dictate my own. I am myself, I fit no profile, and no label can be placed upon me.

Oh....so you are one of those 'Labels suck! I am an individual'. Um...yeah....just like every other person on that site that says exactly the same thing.

Yeah, your opinion matters less. Why? Because we say so. Go and 'contribute' something to society, like your lungs and kidneys. I am sure that there are people more worthy of them than you.

The cutting yourself was intended as a sardonic comment.
And you cannot enter a site and break its protocol AND bitch about how we insult your site. You're insulting ours.
Besides, when an idiot comes to this site, we scare him off. But everyone can post anywhere on VF.

How can you not know that an unmoderated "sex cult" is wrong?
Don't you realize if it's unmoderated, underage kids can enter and post whatever the shit they want?

And, as for the last thing about "not having any label", you already have a label.
I have officially named everyone that says "I am myself" as a "non-conformist".
Because the "I'm my self, I have no labels, I don't follow any trend" is getting quite trendy.

Guys... ever consider that these people, be they members of VF or not, could potentially fit in here? Alex seems quite intelligent. Why the hell aren't we giving them a chance?

In my opinion, they came in here specifically to troll so I am throwing the whole lot of them into the same pile. They are obviously giving each other the link to this topic so that they can all come over here and whine.

Oh, they will definitely fit here.
The question is, will Alex want to fit here? He said he didn't care about the protocol anyway.

EDIT: I read your statement wrong. No sleep.

The reason why this forum goes through periods like this is because of the inability of the administrators(owners) to get off of their asses and do anything.

I do realize that my previous statement has become quite overused. I can also understand how you get that impression of me. It is not my purpose to avoid trends, but I base my choices solely on what makes me happy (and yes I am a fairly happy person). Let me amend my previous comment. You can put what ever label you want on me, but it will not affect my opinion of myself. I do not attempt to categorize you, and I only ask you to show me the same courtesy. I have a feeling some of you will, but I expect the next response to this will be a scornful one. By the way I would like to thank you, darkangel29, and I do believe I will become involved in this site. I will no longer defend VF, but in closing I will make one last comment: people will abuse any privelage granted, as a rule, you may think I am abusing this thread. Maybe some changes need to be made to VF, but if users act in a responsible manner, the site can be enjoyable, and safe as it stands.

We don't want 'these people' here.


I almost laughed myself to death over Gheists' 'threat' of legal action should we use the much-beloved(HA!) VF logo! Pathetic that they came here to defend such a place.
