There are dumb posts on every board, at least then they were pretty easy to spot and avoid if you chose to. Pam, you had nothing to do with it, but the board was better before you got here. For some reason, that was when it started to deteriorate, but not because of you. |
| __________________________________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 1:58pm - jim_is_signed_up_for_an_account ""] I think its hilarious at some of the threads that people are fighting, because some of you guys are in your late 20s and 30s. |
| __________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 1:58pm - Sinistas ""] Yeah, uh, this thread was about cutting back on the personal attacks. |

| _____________________________ [Dec 28,2006 2:16pm - pam ""] Dwyer picks more fights and insults more people than anyone else on this board, let him think otherwise. I don't care. |
| __________________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 2:19pm - Dwellingsickness ""] I think all the shit talking,fighting,whatever bullshit, should be in the Neverendingthreadofdeath, that would keep it going,that thread is full of crap anyways,why not combine all the fighting threads with that one? |

| _________________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 2:31pm - DreamingInExile ""] I'm all for pulling shit back together here. I'm guilty for fueling the fire as most of us are. Though I'm usually the passive member of the board, I try not to step on the toes of anyone. I'm tired of seeing someone looking for a band or members get flamed because they have a metalcore band reference in their influences. I mean, really, so what if you dont' like, say, Lamb of God, is that a reason to trash on someone who does? NO! I'm tired of the nuclear fallout over blackmetallady's posts & anti-posts, is it really worth the few seconds of your life to keep warring on her? probably not. people like this we should just let talk out their asses and ignore. Pam, I know she's made attacks at you and the fam (which is a bullshit move on her part), but just let it go here, if you ever cross paths with her outside of the internet, go ahead and level her, noone here would complain. I'd like to see this board back to the days when good 'ol shit talkin RustedAngel posted, I miss that kid, and since he's left the board, I hardly get to talk to him anymore. I know he's busy with school and Porphyria and what-not, but it'd be good to get things squared away here and get him back. well, I've spoken my 2 cents, and I'd like to see us all make a move to return RTTP to what it once was, the Mecca of the local scene. Cheers to all of you that are moving to make a difference! |

| _______________________________ [Dec 28,2006 2:36pm - yummy ""] I liked him here, plus he could take a joke. It's more his board than mine. whatever that really means. He was here way before me and he added some interesting tidbits. The guitar pics left with him. |

Already done, my friend. I'd like to see this board back to the days when good 'ol shit talkin RustedAngel posted, I miss that kid, and since he's left the board, I hardly get to talk to him anymore. I know he's busy with school and Porphyria and what-not, but it'd be good to get things squared away here and get him back. Tom's busy taking amazing photos...you seen that shit? They're amazing, I always like his band photos, but the stuff he's been taking lately is outstanding. |

| _________________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:46pm - DreamingInExile ""] yeah, Tom's got a killer eye for that stuff! I'm glad to see that some of you agree with (some of) my thoughts. let's take this board back! |
| _____________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:48pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""] You guys that don't know me just think I'm a dick, I'm really not. |
| __________________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:51pm - Dwellingsickness ""] Everyone is a dick on the internet, people can get away with it, that is why WE ALL DO IT |
| _____________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:53pm - pam ""] I'm actually really nice, but you've never any trouble calling me a cunt. Get back what you give out. |
| _____________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:53pm - |an ""] I got disinterested in posting because any time anyone posts any opinion on anything, there's 20 people who chime in specifically to cut down and berate you. Maybe people should realize that opinions are not fact, and if someone posts their opinion on something, they are not really interested in being called names or threatened. Maybe some kind of intelligent conversation or debate surrounding the topic, but I'm sick of seeing "I like this band..." then "fuck you faggot... die" in response, etc. |
| _____________________________ [Dec 28,2006 3:54pm - pam ""] Fuck you, Ian! Just kidding. |

I don't know you, and I don't think you're a dick. But then again, in order to determine whether or not anyone is a dick, I would have to know them at least to some extent. :spineyes: Plenty of good friends of mine are complete dicks. What really matters is whether or not they make me laugh. |
| _____________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 4:01pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""] Usually when I correct people's spelling it is so they will learn and not be like Keith Mutiny and spell "to" like "too" all the time. And for the millionth time, THERE'S NO "A" IN DEFINITELY! You're, your, their, they're, there... so frustrating. |
| ______________________________ [Dec 28,2006 4:09pm - Lamp ""] It blows my mind that almost every single person seriously doesn't know the difference between your and you're. You're is YOU ARE. So you know..."your being a retard" is wrong, "you're being a retard" is correct. This is fucking elementary school grammar. |
| __________________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 4:09pm - Dwellingsickness ""] Who Kares it is the intarnet fuck speling and gramar correct spaeling and gramar are definately not a high priority for everyone on here |
| _____________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 4:12pm - AUTOPSY_666 ""] This is fucking elementary school grammar. I agree, it hurts my brain how dumb people are. |
| _____________________________ [Dec 28,2006 4:14pm - pam ""] Spelling errors and grammatical offenses (especially you and you're) make me fucking insane. But I try to ignore it. |
| __________________________________ [Dec 28,2006 4:15pm - Samantha ""] I have a hard time taking anyone seriously if they are incapable of utilizing the English language properly. |

| _____________________________ [Dec 28,2006 4:31pm - |an ""] It is pretty annoying to read poor grammar, but I think it's a lost cause. Most people consider a forum like this to be a fairly colloquial format, and don't consider speaking proper English a priority. There are a lot of dumb people - this is not news. Just think how smart you look compared to them! But interestingly enough, there's a lot of really talented people in this world who can't spell worth half a damn. So it's not really a solid metric by which to judge people. |
| _____________________________ [Dec 28,2006 4:35pm - pam ""] Yeah, I always appreciated the no-moderator on this. I guess this is the risk you run! |
