Poor Jilli... I guess I should put one up from my collection...
*begining of rant*
You know what annoys me? I sent a close friend an email on bloody Thursday! The bastard still hasn't answered me! He knows to be expecting something, and I told him on three seperate occasions to check his damned email! Grrrr! I need his help, it's important.
*end of rant*
Oh, Jilli, if you see this check your email.

Godslayer Jillian · 12-10-2006, 05:18 PM

Now I feel terrible.

An Eccentric Cellist · 12-10-2006, 05:21 PM

Why? I was ranting about someone else. That's why I put *begining...* and *end...* to avoid such confusion.

Godslayer Jillian · 12-10-2006, 05:23 PM

In any case it also applies to me, and I also have told you something over and ove ragain:

Get msn messenger!! *.*

An Eccentric Cellist · 12-10-2006, 05:40 PM

Sorry, sweetie. I don't need to be addicted to talking to you at all hours of the night, despite how fun that sounds...
I'll try and persuade myself into it though.

Child_of_Fury · 12-11-2006, 01:41 AM

Mega ranting time!

I'm truly, madly, deeply pissed off at the moment. Of all the talented people of my class, the only f*ck-face there just had to go and insist on writing a play we're suppose'ta have finished for the high school's x-mas party. He can't write! I've seen the scribbles he does, and he just copies something here and there, mainly from Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy, he has nothing original - zero, zilch and zip all. I was so looking forward for some of the truly talented and truly funny people in my class to do the writing, but instead, in comes this d*ck-head and goes "Oooh, I wanna write it!!!11! I can make it sooo funny!!11!1"

What a brick.

I find myself hating the guy more and more. He's the type that doesn't know when to shut up, and always trying to be funny with the kind of jokes I laughed at them the last time I rolled over in my cradle. He doesn't even comprehend when people actually mock him. I can take a look at his work, saying seriously that I don't know whether I should cry or laugh, and he automatically thinks I'm kidding, like I would really like his works.

Sigh.

Do you guys have any clown-repellant? I am in desperate need of one.

Minyaliel · 12-11-2006, 01:52 AM

Child_ of_Fury - nah, sorry, but I do have clown paint left over from my last play - It's only white, grey and black, though, since I played an alley cat...

HumanePain · 12-11-2006, 03:13 AM

Child_of_Fury: you just have to be blunt to some people before they get it. You should say with a serious face: "This will turn the audience off to drama, we should put our best foot forward, not our ass."

I think Gnet should be renamed.

Due to all the complaining and defeatist attitudes that constantly pollute this site, I think it should be renamed losers.net. Seriously, some people need motivation. Instead of complaining and whining like a b*tch, do something about it or at least ask for advice.

Actually, another more appropriate name would be Cosmopolitan.net. Guess what is more important than horror movies, and literature? That's right, fingernails and boob names. Such superficial concepts have more posts than horror movies, dark concepts (like vampires), and discussions of literature combined. This is pathetic.
By the way, shouldn't be more indepth posts regarding music (instead of what are you listening to) and more art postings. I think maybe they are of some importance to goths.

I was barely surviving with just the poetry forum, literature postings (which are relatively rare), and at least a few interesting conversations about politics and religion. But these forums are becoming extinct.

Before I finish my rant, I would like to commend the following people who probably stopped posting for similar reasons: Splintered (for his posts on religion and literature, Cpt. Stern (for his posts on politics), Black Butterfly, Darkbender and several others for their posts on interesting topics. Oh, by the way, there was a rant thread for the members who left too.

There are some people who are still here like Humane Pain, Crying Crimson Tears, Godslayer Jillian and few others who actually posted on such topics. Also, Omegagoth, even though I do not agree with your antisocial methods, your knowledge of the English language and poetry is admirable.
I enjoyed conversing with some people, (although many of them are gone). I wish you guys well.

To the haters: you can prove my points by whining and pitiful insults or in fact, making another whining thread. I don't care, I have a life.

LostAndCrazy · 12-16-2006, 11:23 AM

You basically summed it all up quite well. I'd have done it but I cannot be bothered anymore.

P.S. I was ranting about people not posting anything to the literature thread earlier as well.

HumanePain · 12-16-2006, 11:33 AM

Well said knightmare. LostAndCrazy: I remember your related post too. The heritage of this site is literature, but there is one, a self-confessed troll, who is trying to turn it into a sex website, distracting the example we try to set for the new members. A justified rant, and a good reminder for myself as well. I am afraid I have gotten carried away with some of the Hijinks, Shenanigans, and Tom-Foolery, forgive me. (goes back to writing stories left unfinished in the Literature thread...)

Godslayer Jillian · 12-16-2006, 12:13 PM

Ignoring those idiotic threads would be so eas, and they would inevitably die, but so many people keep them alive. I need to do something about that.

She_Is_My_Sin · 12-16-2006, 02:06 PM

*Sigh* Though I'm not a great contributor to the Literature section, or anything like that, it still bothers me that the site is getting turned into a completely opposite idea of what it was...it's stuff liek that which makes me question why I'm still on here.

I left my old forum because it was becoming over-run with whingey 13 year olds, who kept asking stupid questions & stuff like that. I sincerely hope this place doesn't end up the same.

Godslayer Jillian · 12-16-2006, 02:26 PM

You're here 'cause you would never leave me.
There's not much science as to how not to let this site end up like your previous one:
Contribute in the worthwhile threads and do not be part of the idiotic ones (e.g. the Cyber and Boob threads)

She_Is_My_Sin · 12-17-2006, 02:11 AM

Just make sure this place never gets a thread about "My fav top colours".

12-17-2006, 07:55 AM

I hate being banned without explanation, e-mail, PM or any communication on why I was banned. I actually do not see what I did wrong this time, aside from instisting that the enticing kiddies post may want to be removed before someone's mommy sees it. And that there needs to be active moderation.

"They're uh... invisible mods... you can't, uh, see them but they are there..."

No.

No they arent.

drama, drama, drama.

I was banned and the thread stays. Classy.

Guess no one has a spine enough to state why. Par for course. Buh-bye. Enjoy your stay.

cradle · 12-17-2006, 08:11 AM

I have no idea why....maybe it's because you were verry rude when you came here?

Crying_Crimson_Tears · 12-17-2006, 08:13 AM

The admins and mods and people on here are really starting to piss me off. Most people just want to be bitches about everything and the admins/mods do nothing for this site.

She_Is_My_Sin · 12-17-2006, 08:56 AM

Nothing gets done on here anymore & nothing will. Up until recently it hasn't really bothered me. But now it's becoming a pain.

Well, I'll give it until January. If I'm still not liking the situation, I'm upping & outing.

Babe, been here since 10/2005- never once changed my tone or tune. I only seem to get banned for asking direct questions about what the fuck is going on, why they don't seem to care, what they are actively doing to help this site et al. There are no answers, no responses for any dialogue- only banning me and deleting my posts then a self-righteous but laissez-faire stance.

Crying_Crimson_Tears · 12-17-2006, 12:04 PM

I must agree with Becky, I have never heard anything that came out of her that was rude. And the admins do have a habit of banning people who ask questions.....

12-17-2006, 12:09 PM

I can be harsh- I will not deny that.

But rude? No. Either I am not saying what you want to hear or else you need a bigger backbone.

Seriously, if they banned be because I was rude then, well... they haven't been paying attention. Nothing I said was ever as bad as the Omagoth666whatever. So, well, yeah.

Sorry about that.

Well then I have no idea why you were banned, maybe you should try emailing the administrator.

I did- I always do. Never once ever got an answer to an e-mail or (then) PM. (Gee, what happened to those, BTW?) All I get is banned. Then they post something trite and reassuring to others here.

And honestly, the start dates don't matter. Seniority has never made someone right or wrong. It may make them more experienced, but frankly, that doesn;t matter here either. Whether or not you are liked, accepted, etc. has little to do with when you join. Those who use start date to gat a leg up in argument have nothing else to say.

I only said when I joined initially to let you know that, dude, been around for a while- and if they are just now banning me for bring rude....
