I know I'll regret posting this, but it's all for the best in the end. I've been reading through some of the threads on Violence and realized that I'm one of those persons who annoys the hell out of a lot of people.

I know I made a lot of stupid posts, but it's now that I've realized how stupid they really were.Yes, it took me a long time to realize it, but better late than never, I guess. However, the stupidity that accumulated over the last 4 high school years won't go away in a day (stupid high school friends).

This is why I need you. I'd appreciate it if, whenever I make a stupid post, you warned me. Hopefully, they'll slowly fade away. Of course, we all have our days...

Now go ahead and criticize me as much and as harsh as you want. Release the little sadist and take it off your chest. It's better that you're honest with me. I'll be able to take it, I've heard a lot worse things about me and survived.

P.S. I know I have a stupid forum name. I couldn't think of anything better. If you have a better/more suitable name, share it with me.

Well I never thought you were a "stupid poster", and I'm the most important person around here so only my opinion matters.

;)

seriously - relax and don't worry about what others think of you.

To be honest, (and I am not just trying to be nice), I really don't have a clue what you are talking about.
I definitely don't see all posts that are made, but I have never seen any from you that warrants any kind of action.
Who doesn't make some silly posts once in a while. We are here to have fun.
Just don't spam the boards, if you have in the past, I don't know.
Anyhow, I never seen anything you wrote that was offensive and bothered me in the least.
Also, don't see anything wrong with your forum name either. Most of us have silly forum names.
I don't know who jumped on your case, but just don't let it get to you. Just be a part of the community, be civil to others, don't spam, and you will be just fine.

Yes, but my forum name is stupid, there's a difference.;) Besides, I've been thinking of changing it, but don't know what it should be. Nobody jumped on my case (at least not to my knowledge), I just tend to be stupid sometimes and I want to minimize it.:) Believe me, after four years of going home from school with two people who make "Airplane" kind of gags everyday, you fall on their level. Mind you, "Airplane" is a good movie, but too much is just too much.

Now, now, don't refrain yourselves, you know you want to.;)

Normal? WTF does that mean? I don't think you can apply 'normal' to this board :).

And your name is only stupid if you think it is. I don't see anything wrong with it.

What are you talking about? Gimli is a GREAT name. Also, you don't stick out as one of the more obnoxious posters. You speak English well, rather than 1337 5p33k. Just carry on, you'll be fine. And stop being so self conscious.

No, *I'm* the most important person here. This is a fact. How do I know this? I officially gave myself the title (and a nice plaque and badge). There was a party. Punch was served. You weren't invited.

Gimli, like I said before, and others too, there is nothing wrong with your name.
However, if you decide to change it, keep it short and sweet, like the one you have now. I hate it when members change their easy names to 26 letter, have to copy-and-paste type names. ( You know like from Haxor to Archaeopteryx, for instance, hint-hint ;) ).
Some of us dim-witted slow farts would rather have a name that is easy to remember to type out, than have to look up the name tocopy and paste it to get it right. :D

I used to say really stupid shit on forums. I still do, just not as much. :eek: I haven't noticed you being stupid, but if you say so. I have no beef though.

ah yes, the one and only infamous guilt trip of "I was stupid." I am glad that you went back and looked at yourself. It is good to be yourself and not care what others think, but if you take that too literally, it can be dangerous. I have been where you have been before, and it shtanks.

Good luck to your "self revolution" and keep up the posting.

If yopu're referring to this (http://forums.seriouszone.com/showpost.php?p=630324&postcount=19) post, don't worry about it. I don't mean any offense to any partied involved, but you fit right in with disconnctor, fiendan and those types. I'm not going to come right out and call them 'spam' posts, but you do make a lot of fast, short-worded replies. ;) Which is fine, but it has it's place. Personally, I like to avoid threads like that, and reply more in ones that have actual discussion about a topic, per se. Basically, carry on, it's who you are.

Gimli, everyone is entitled to the boner post every once in a while. I've pulled a more than my share. Don't sweat it. We won't belittle you for throwing out a rediculous opinion/idea/sugestion, whatever -- though we may have a little fun at your expense. ;)

It's part of the game -- have fun, don't take yourself (or anyone else) too seriously.

OK, it seems I was mostly paranoid.:paranoid:
Booger, you just gave me an idea for something, I'll PM you later.
McFuggin, I wasn't really reffering to that post speciffically, it just got caught in it I guess.

I just don't want to have a beef with anyone because I'm not the fight-causing type, and I wanted people to be honest with me.:)
Well I'm glad that's settled, I feel better now.

In the meantime, ZEN has put this in "the HoF suggestions thread", but the logic behind it escapes me. So OK, whatever...o_O maybe it's a good warning to people how not to behave.

1) Don't use leet speak, unless it's a joke at the expense of someone (VIS threads, anyone?)

2) Don't make to many short, stupid replies like: I agree etc.

3) I can't think of anything right now.

God doesn't watch American football. He only watches skiing and handball at the moment. That's why we're good at it.:D God is a fan of Croatia, you know.

I'm kidding of course. Except that I like baseball more. But I don't know the rules. Seems cool, though.

come with me Gimli and allow me to show you the wonders of hockey - the coolest game on earth.

Gimli
02-06-2005, 01:15 PM
Ohh hockey is cool, too.

But nothing beats a game of soccer. At least in Croatia. If you don't believe me, come here and you will experience the best atmosphere ever. Words cannot properly describe it, but I'll try. Imagine 40 000 people standing in the cold and they feel warm. In fact most of them are dripping with sweat. it's non-stop supporting and yelling like idiots, the whole stadium lives and dies with the team. But when there's a goal, it turns into a total mayhem. The whole stadium goes wild, people are jumping on each others' heads.
And then torches are lit. Now that is a sight to behold. It's full of smoke so you cannot breathe, let alone see anything. And there is a big feeling of being one.
You just have to see it to believe it.

Hey, tell you what. If in a few years, I'll have a decent job I'll come with you to see a hockey game. And then, if you want you can come and see a real soccer game.

I don't see why you are worried about being normal around here. 75% of the members have turned into domokuns and you are carrying on conversations with MeadowMuffins and Boogers. Any more normal and they'd put you away for good. :tongue:

Gimli
02-06-2005, 01:54 PM
@ Sarge: Ohh, you'll riot. Your face will be red, your head wet with sweat and your voice will just not exist for the next few days. The bad thing is, your clothes will smell when you come home.
But it tends to get rough sometimes. The stands(?) can be a dangerous place. People start fighting there, and then the SWAT team comes in. Then you run. Even if you didn't do anything, you run. When they start beating people, they don't care who they beat. People then tend to scatter. Luckily it rarely happens.

dangerous? fighting? SWAT team? beatings?

(actually, it sounds a lot like a hockey game. Not the fans at a hockey game - it's like the actual game! )

Anyway, I'd really like this thread to end.:O

Edit: Damn it, people. You post quicker than I can answer.:D

@Sarge: Hehehe.:D I remember 2 years ago, my friend and I were on a less important match. There were a few people smoking pot... One of the supporters didn't like it... They had to leave... One of them didn't listen... at first:D. He was on the floor pretty fast with the other guy's foot in his stomach. Then he had to leave.
