It's sad all the pain and turmoil that has been going on here... I don't know the details for myself so I won't make a judgement, although I could...
This place isn't worth missing now, I think. It is like missing an ex you broke up with, then meeting up with them and realising why you broke up with them in the first place. There's nothing to come back to...
Maybe there are greener pastures elsewhere, and stuff...
In fact, there definitely has to be...

I heard about that, even though I don't know who the Unto Ashes are.
Anyway, I'll still be in England, trying to find a job and a place to live.. Stuff like that.

Isn't it really hard to get a job in England, let alone london, If you're not 100% full-blood english? I hope you get one nevertheless. Also, do you have msn? I tried to add your email address from your profile, but it didn't seem to work. My instant messenger address is goku goten goten @ hot mail .com, without the spaces, If you want to add me.

mutsumiasakura · 07-10-2006, 09:20 PM

May I add you, Corpsey?

I added you, and sent the mail ^^, so you will have a mail from Deidre O'Connor, it's me.
Deirdre was a Role Play Game character I used a lot in the last two years ^^

About the job, people told me it was quite easy to find one in London, but I have no idea about that. But I know there's many french people working in London, so if they can find a job, why can't I?
Anyway, I won't be able to look for one before october.

Oubliette · 07-11-2006, 08:54 AM

woah...I've been logged in for a loooooong time and didn't even realise it. Talk about the lights being on but nobody's home. Anyway hi folks.

Their post was not directed at you personally, it was a warning to everyone.

(Taken out of thread to avoid further bicker-jacking)

Mags, I like you and I respect your opinion. But I'm gonna have to disagree with you on this one.

I can see why you may say, "look, Gnet is getting rid of the fucktards and that's all we ever wanted, right?"

But let's not forget, this is the Gnet that allowed racist trolls to smear crap all over the boards, because they're apparently entitled to their opinion too. (I don't disagree with this in theory, but members who come in purely to call members "N***** lovers" in a thread on race should be outta there before their feet touch the ground, in my opinion.) They allowed some troll, who seemed to be generally accepted to be Rabbit in another incarnation, to attack Kari with hate speech in the picture post, refusing to (re-)ban him until EPS left some particularly loathsome posts up for them to see in desperation, hoping they'd remove him. Which they did, in their own sweet time... although not before he'd had time to leave some lovely little nuggets over the forums.) We've seen it all - hate speech, kiddie porn... and all of the perpetrators have been allowed a decent run before being removed, which should have done instantly. Meanwhile, senior members were gradually being banned for posts like, "I miss Darren" (Eyes) - or sometimes, as in the case of EPS, nothing at all. Not to mention leaving EPS's real name up for a good long while, lying that she had posted it in the past, and banning Manimal this morning for no apparent reason other than that they didn't like what he was saying.

I absolutely shouldn't have gone troll-bashing in a remembrance thread. Which is why I apologised to Falken when I read the whole thread and promised to stop cluttering it.

But in my opinion, you don't get to go doling out little pearls of wisdom like cookies for all the little memebers to gobble up, when you've shown such an utter lack of disregard for how your own forum is run up until this point. Not to mention having gone against your own advice in the past..

Report them? To what end? Sure, those particular (non-hate-speech-using) trolls have been removed. But far nastier pieces of work have been allowed to run rampant on these boards, spewing filth all over them, not so long ago.

Which is why the post got on my bloody tits, to be honest.

Oubliette · 07-11-2006, 10:55 AM

Anyone know if Pitseleh(I probably didn't spell that correctly) still around?
He was my favorite person here aside from EPS and Wolfie.

Corpsey · 07-11-2006, 04:13 PM

Knock your socks off Lady M, I don't mind, I just don't want dorks adding me, and you certainly aren't what I consider a dork

Uh, Wise, where are you quoting Magpie from? I can't see it anywhere *goes to search in other threads*

lena · 07-11-2006, 04:18 PM

Hey, Im back. Did anyone miss me? Sorry I have been gone forever. Theres been so much going on here I thought my head might explode, but luckily it is still intact, and I have a little more time once again, so hopefully I will be able to post more often now.

WizardElement5 · 07-11-2006, 04:22 PM

Hi Corpsey, the quote is from the "My grandfather died today..." thread in Literature.

Hi lena, welcome back.

maggot · 07-11-2006, 08:22 PM

Wait... What advice of mine did I go againt, Wisey?

*edit*
OH, you meant Magpie! Hehe

Magpie_Tendencies · 07-11-2006, 11:11 PM

Wise - I fully appreciate your point of view on this and I think that you are quite right. My issue was that I know that many of the members here don't like the admins. I felt that your reply to the admins post was an angry reaction to the admins presence more than their advice. That's fine by me but I thought it may provoke a "let's jump on the bandwagon" approach by others and again turn the thread into another argument. I was simply trying to stop that before it began.

I apologise if I was picking on you but since yours was the first reply, it was the one I responded to.

Draconysius · 07-12-2006, 06:12 AM

With great power comes great responsibility... and greed. People with insecurities and towering egos become tempted to totalitarianize everything into a communist-like order where anyone that disagrees with the administration is killed (in this case, banned). There's very little (if anything at all) that anyone can legally do to stop this corruption. It's sickening and, at times, frightening. I miss you, freedom.

Lady Victoria Pareesis · 07-12-2006, 07:02 AM

But you are free.
You can stop coming here.
You are also free to open another site to concur with this one, where all the old team could meet again. *wink wink*

angel011 · 07-12-2006, 07:10 AM

Copy-pasted from the FAQ:

Can I create a lame and unpopular attempted knockoff of Gothic.net and complain about Gothic.net and spam this forum for people to come join my Yahoo Group or Geocities site or even a site on an actual domain?
No. You will be banned if you do this.

Lady Victoria Pareesis · 07-12-2006, 07:25 AM

Oh.
But if someone does it, he can send emails, can't he?
Or something like that.
Anyway, don't look at me that way, I'm not doing it.
Stop staring at me!
*runs away with wild pinapples following her*

cradle · 07-12-2006, 07:51 AM

*Comes to the rescue with a samurai sword and slices the pinnaples and eats them*

angel011 · 07-12-2006, 08:33 AM

Can we share the pinnaples?

Moonie · 07-12-2006, 08:35 AM

only if we can have them on pizza

critterkhan · 07-12-2006, 08:35 AM

I just got in trouble at work today for attendance, and you know what they gave me... a paid day off to think about my career there!! What kind of punishment is that?! I think it's hilarious! I hate my job and don't want to be there, so they give me a day off!! But now I'm on super secret double probation, one fuck up and I'm gone. I don't want to sound like a shitty employee (because I'm really not; most of my trouble has been situational or just plain stupid), but I'm so sick of the place that I don't really care if I lose the job. I'm at the lowest paid factory in my area... and with my job history and longevity at this company (7 years), I can get a job just about anywhere.
Anyway, I'm gonna have some fun tonight and get paid for it!!

Don't eat them, they're evil!
They are always watching you, staring and never blinking...
Pinapples are spawns of the Evil.
