Sorry. I know y'all gunna beat up on me for making yet another thread. I'm truly sorry. So before I go on, I won't make any more threads unless this gets out of hand yet again. Okay. I'm going to say this in a civil, and a non-cussing way, because I know ranting and cussing is just going to bring more trouble. Anyway, I've noticed that a lot of people who used to be friends are fighting a lot. Not a good thing. Don't you see people? This...this huge blow-up is totally destroying our friendships! Moving on. Why was there a fight in the first place? Because we all probably realized, "Hey, why is my stories being pushed back? And why are there suddenly so many RPs?" And so there was a thread. A very good thread at that. A thread stating that, "Hey you guys! Don't you think we need to stop the RPs for a while? I think the new people keep creating stories and RPs, it needs to stop," And I know y'all agree that that's true. But then some new people started to 'defend' themselves. I don't mean any disrespect on these 'new people' but c'mon, newbies, don't you think that you're taking this a teensy bit too far? We've worked our butts off on our RPs and stories, and we'd really appreciate it if it'd be in the first page. Feel free to comment, or give nice critique, even join in the RPs! We are really nice, but once insults start being thrown at us or by our friends, you have to remember that we have a long history with our friends, and we'd defend them immediately. Then things were starting to get out of hand. 1.) Suicide. This kind of pisses me off. I'm sorry, but it DOES. You know people are already pissed and aggravated with you, and you bring up SUICIDE? You may not know it, but it sometimes hits a nerve. We have our own lives. And what exactly do you expect to gain? Respect? Pity? You're not going to get either of that. If you're serious about it, find someone to talk to in REAL LIFE. 2.) Insults. Boom-boom-boom-insults being thrown. Honestly, I don't even understand how this happened. You people need to CALM DOWN AND LISTEN. Hypocrite, idiot are just some insults I've seen being shot at each other. People, this all started with the realization that there are too much new RPs, do you THINK fighting will solve anything? Okay. I had a lot more out of hand points but I think this covers most of it. So if you actually finished reading all this, congrats. And thank you. For taking your time. (P.S. New people, if you want to know more 'bout Fan Fic Forum, check out my other thread "New PiMD-ers". Though it probably got kicked to the third page cause of...you know...)
I agree with this completely I stopped fighting and am now working for peace but I kinda blew my top in the thread "thread"
I wish more people would actually READ this. Instead of blowing their top and ranting about how their "RPs are great" and we're "just a bunch of idiots".
THANK YOU! I haven't seen broken friendships though. The fights I've been seeing are between people who disliked each ther prior to the chaos.
I agree except one thing I was targeted as a newb flooding ff when I had only one thing the other people I understand but I hadn't made that much I understand how they all feel after seeing this and the way I felt was like I was being targeted specifically its just the way my brain works but this I have to say has really helped me to understand now if only they could understand where I'm coming from
Sometimes, after reading all these 'GRR RPS ARE BAD AND SMELLY' () hate threads, I feel like everyone has one nerve and someone's getting on it.
The destroyer: I only used you as an example because a lot of people have been going haywire about this, and I'm just advising you not to go to far because I don't want to start another fight. I'm sorry if you thought that I was targeting you, no, I didn't speak bad about you, I just merely cited things that have been bothering this fight lately and I wanted to see a neutral side of the argument. -- Thanks to everyone who agreed! I want a lot of people to see this so they will be able to explain themselves in a civil away and not in a caps rage or something!
Colin, keep spewing crap about how you're being targeted and next time you say that again I WILL make sure you're one of my targeted victims when I'm in another argument. You already lost my respect and gained my dislike. Another level up with make me hate you,
They bring up suicide for something so insignificant... It makes my blood boil. I've seen many many pitiful people in my life, but this is beyond the scope of stupidity. I have no words. None. None at all. The reactions of someone who never understood suicide and someone who nearly died because of it are very different. Very. Very. Different.
Stupidity I've seen true stupid reasons for suicide like just because you hate yourself or you hate everyone those are stupid reasons don't get me wrong all reasons are stupid but those two are the dumbest holla if ya hear me
You wanna know what's stupid? Saying you're gonna commit suicide because OF A NON EXISTENT REPUTATION.
Non existent I had a rep of people liking me that's what I was talking about it existed now enough if you are going to try to keep me fighting leave ff because I refuse to get lured into a trap
It's not a trap. We aren't luring you. You are bringing yourself to the argument. No one is forcing you to argue. Stop acting like we are putting you against your will. It's YOUR decision whether or not you argue. Shut up. Secondly, if anyone should leave, it should be you. You've been here for how long? 3 weeks tops? I have been here for almost a year now. It's been our place longer than it has been yours. Lastly, I don't want to delve into this too deep, but you HAD NO REP. Not being silenced or hated is not a rep. Nobody here knew you. Nobody cared. That's not a rep. Having a rep is when many know you and feel one way about you or frequently say similar things about you. Yeah. That's not what you had. All you had was a clean slate and even then I didn't like you because you seemed so needy. I just didn't vocalize my feelings because I didn't want to be a bitch. A rep is built in PIMD over the course of a long time. Rarely, it takes a short period of time. We didn't take away any "rep" because it was non-existent. Throughout this chaos, however, you HAVE made a rep. A bad one.
Not being hated means that you don't know anyone. You knew no one, nobody knew you. That's not a rep, that's when no one cares enough. Like I said, a rep is when everyone thinks mutual things about you, but before this, NO ONE thought or talked about you.
Ha no I haven't I wasn't always hated maybe you think that but your wrong if I was always hated I wouldn't have any friends genius and I have quite a few also if you and me were to meet you'd learn even a few people have a healthy fear of me
