Fred Derf Veteran Posted February 1, 2004 Veteran Share Posted February 1, 2004 I was hoping the staff would read this as well..:unsure: The whole premise of this thread is wrong. It's not that bashing on neowin is a problem it's that bashing YOU on neowin is a problem. You need to realize that some of your threads are just... well, asking for it. You can't start these type of threads and bear-bait others into bashing you just so you can report them to the mods. It's a circular argument. I post because they bash and they bash because I post. I personally think you live off the entertainment that this generates for you. It's your thing. JohnsonBox posts some pretty useless threads but I like them because they are entertaining. Actually I think they are only entertaining because of his (lack of) command of the english language. I mean really, what was up with JB's penis (sausage) thread the other day?

TheDogsBed Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 rpm. I don't believe anyone can do any more than apologise, and that you have done. I for one am prepared to give you the benefit of the doubt. Not as though that is worth anything. But please, I implore you, if you must post those images, at least let us know why we are supposed to be looking at them. You just seem to post them without any rythme of reason, other than self-satisfaction. And please, don't believe for a second that running to a mod has influenced this message. It hasn't. All I ever needed was you to at least give a hint as to why you post those inane images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aem4162 Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 we wouldn't rag on you so much if you didn't post so many "look at me" threads. we don't need to see your fantasy girls, your house, your broken dock, your satellite dish, your sunglasses, your backpack, your truck, your bike, your hot tub, your home theatre, your closet, your furniture, your attempts at coolness with the fake write-up...we don't care about that stuff. shoot...we didn't do the fake paperwork stuff when *I* was in high school in the late 70s. it's THAT old, alex. the serious stuff: you take pictures of girls and post them (probably) without their knowledge or consent. that's WRONG. the **** will fly when someone photoshops one of their heads on another woman's nude body and people will know that you contributed to it. there are perverts out there who stalk young women and by posting their pictures, esp the breast/cleavage/bikini pix, you are aiding them. i know that you post these threads so that someone will pay SOME kind of attention to you. mommy and daddy are busy with their jobs and they buy you whatever you want because 1) they think they are paying attention to you by doing so and 2) it makes you think they are paying attention to you. they go off for 2 weeks in the bahamas or wherever and leave you with the smoking grandparents. that ain't parenting and they should be slapped for it. i felt bad for you when that happened. i know you like and want to post at neowin. it's a cool place. you can be involved with neowin w/o the girls and material stuff. try to answer a question or 2 in one of the help forums. try to learn graphics programs and post what you've done because it could be a nice wallpaper. post your work in progress and ask for opinions. you CAN be a part of neowin if you really want to be.

rpm Posted February 1, 2004 Author Share Posted February 1, 2004 Anita.. Thank you I've taken what you said into consideration.> Honestly, They spoil me but they're always here for me just busy providing for me. They're good parents though I don't appreciate that comment.. I was in school so I couldn't go with them to the Virgin Islands. Forklift, What the hell are you going on about? .Atlantis.. That picture was HORRIBLE you have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDogsBed Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 .Atlantis.. That picture was HORRIBLE you have no idea. And it lasted how long? All of about five minutes I believe. With a very clear "If this offends" message at the top of it. Strangely, I didn't see you speak up. Quit while yer ahead or just return to ****ing people off.

rpm Posted February 1, 2004 Author Share Posted February 1, 2004 It lasted not long because the moderators thankfully felt the need to act. Props to them, Because IMHO your a sick person for posting that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForkliftDude Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 oh man, if you're getting so upset, offended, horrified and <insertwordhere> over a frickin' photoshop, you should go consult a shrink. seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh? I swapped the image at my own discretion. What are you talking about? No mod contacted me about it. As for being sick. As an artist, I strive to explore all avenues. :) Tell you what, go back to ****ing people off, it's already worked on me. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadishTM Veteran Posted February 1, 2004 Veteran Share Posted February 1, 2004 Alex, most of the threads you have created have come under very heavy flaming, this is because of the nature of the thread itself. Neowin is a tech-orientated forum - the heart of it. As you know, new forums were added to the Neowin forum due to threads raising about personal issues etc .... - such as Members Metropolis and the rest of the sub-forums under that forum. Now, majority of your threads have come under those new forums - now you have to remember that Neowin is a tech-orientated forum first. Personal forums come second. I have seen over time that you have taken advantage of our new 'personal' forums, that's not a bad thing - but majority of members know when you post something it's rarely tech-related and is something personal e.g Girls, relationships etc .... So when you post something, regular members tend to remember what you have posted in the past, becomes repetition in itself and members once again flame you for it. Due to this, majority of your threads come under this rule - No spamming. Spamming is characterized by the initiation of threads or posts that contribute nothing to a forum, be it off topic or on topic. Examples include: empty bodies, bodies with few words that have no relation to the current thread or discussion and those posts that state they are spam, either to annoy, advertise or increase a member's post count. Resurrecting old forum posts is also not appreciated unless it serves a worthy cause to the forum. This determination is made by the forum Moderator or Administrator and is not up for discussion. I'm not necessarily taking a 'dig' at you, just telling you how I see things. There are some personal issues that a tech forum cannot solve, and for that you have to ask people in the real world for their opinion on how to do certain things. Anything tech-related can be asked at Neowin, this is what we are primarily made for. You can post personal topics, just make sure that they are not as controversial as your previous threads and also learn from them so you don't keep on repeating what members don't adhere to. Move away from these types of threads and become a better person, not for us - but for yourself (Y), otherwise members will keep bringing you down, and as you know your reputation isn't that great on Neowin after having 4 usernames that more or less did the same thing.

Fred Derf Veteran Posted February 1, 2004 Veteran Share Posted February 1, 2004 Well you for one can aplogize to me about posting my friend Megan brutally beat up which made me CRY because of how horrifying it was to see that done to her! :cry: People here only want to know about your real life if it is funny or tragic. I would generally not advise you to integrate items from your real life into your online persona. I would certainly never post pictures of girls I knew on the internet, even the ones who dumped me. But you do need a bit of a reality check if you're crying over an edited photograph. I didn't see the photo but even if she looked like the victim of a car wreck then it isn't worth shedding a tear over. Unless you are into voodoo or something. Knock on wood and all that.

KC Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Alex have you ever thought that the reaction you give people prompts them to only bash you more? You give people what they want. You throw fits, you act as if your a mod at times, you post threads about new rules that only benifit you, and then you make this thread. Step back and take a look. I am sure you act near the same in real life, people push your buttons and you give them what they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drov Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 You all wasted 5 pages on this topic? WTF? Everyone, this is a forum, not a house of congress where everything you say and do gets written down or taken seriously. Anyone who takes this place seriously and consider's what they see and read to be true needs to step away from the computer for about 5 years and come back. I know that forums can get addictive but please people, either comment on what people post constructively or get the hell out. The internet is not that valuable to life itself so if you can, spend about 30 minutes a day on it max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
