GTQQ NewbieAnd i don't mean this in a rude way, but your rude to a lot of people on here. basicaly biting peoples heads off for their opinions. so yah.
-
Ting is never rude, and she's almost never whines on her.

*here

Child, you can't even spell correctly. Don't rage at Ting because she does make adult decisions all the time. And you don't know wether or not she's been alone for a long period of time. Being alone can really mess a person up, you know. Just ask Karasu. He was alone for so long and he has very little trust for people but he gives everything for Calen.
So zip your s--- (Yeah, I'm swearing) because you probably don't know anything. -
I've met quite a few people on here, and never have I seen Ting, or anyone for that matter, "bite" someone's head off for stating an opinion. :P
-
I don't have the slightest clue who the hell GTQQ is, but if you've been here the full three years I only started 'whining' and s--- a month or two ago. I rarely ever complain. I only do when I need a release.
I only get 'rude' at people when it's needed. any other time, I'm sorry for. -
I must agree with that. It's the unfortunate truth: anyone with a different opinion to the majority of older members on this site are often struck with a tirade of abuse, if they dare not to agree - particularly with Newbies, that are stereotyped and discriminated against.
I find many of the disagreements here are exasperated, exacerbated and exaggerated over the pettiest of things. In the midst of that commotion, hypocrisy is a rife as common courtesy is neglected - or if not entirely forgotten. -
It's a shame, really. Honestly, I find some of the members here absorbed in pride by the respect and adoration they receive from their peers, which I question is even remotely deserved. I wasn't aware that frequent profanities in one's vocabulary deserved respect. Or that entire lack of respect for someone that dares to be a voice of difference was also. It seems basic standards of human decency do not exist here; weren't we taught that discrimination is fundamentally wrong? That we must have respect for people, first and foremost? Why here - even if it is only on the internet - must the traits that distinguish us from beasts be forgotten?
Many of you resorted to this site as a release from the harshness of the real world. You were desperate to free yourself from judgment, cattiness and status in the schools and maybe even in the homes you inhabited. You couldn't make the rules at school, or at home so you brought them here; you've been here longer so you now have status, don't you? With that status and automatic respect you can now pass unfair judgement on members you happen to disagree with, can't you? And be catty in the process as well?
I find what you tried to distance yourself from - judgement, cattiness, status, e.t.c. - you have now created here. You've become the people you tried to run away from. Those type of people once chased you in school, now your here in your created "school" where you make the rules and you chase the people. The Newbies - for example - and the people that have probably resorted to this site for the exact same reason as you.
Many of you are too preoccupied with passing judgement and "flaming" other people that you haven't even stopped to look at yourself. Who are, who you have become, and who you pretend to be. I do not expect for some - if not any - of you to acknowledge this as you all are most likely all the same.
I could go on, but I won't. GTQ faded long ago, and the character of some its members too.
I wish you all nothing but peace and happiness for the future. -
Hmm I don't see a problem here. Just a problem that should be left alone

Remember, IT'S JUST A QUIZ SITE
It's hard to leave, but you won't die if you will -
I came here because of the lack of community. I came here because my peers in the real world cant even come close to some of the sophisticated conversations we have on here. Alot of the badgering that I do is in religion. It is never ignorant insults. I dont sugar coat my words, as I would hope that you wouldnt sugar coat things for me. If I offend people it is because they took it as offensive. I am not bullying. For me to bully, I would actually have to know you, at least a little bit. I state my opinions in the most blunt and straight forward ways that I can and I have been labeled as a bad person for it. I start open debates for anyone who wants to present their case to come in and join, and I have been labeled as agressive simply because nobody has been able to best me yet. I'm not sorry if people dont like me. I have nothing against anyone here. And when I first came here, I could join a conversation at random and be happy and open with everyone. I was very different back then. Now most of the threads are either private, ignore other people, or are the same exact thing spewed out over and over again without any imagination. I could drown myself with the amount of soaps I've seen. Let alone how many have turned into cyber sex. If I actually kept any of my old emotions I would be a complete wreck with the amount of times people have ignored me when I needed to talk. The last few times I have needed someone to listen to me, everyone was too busy in their own little worlds to notice an obvious cry for help.
My hope for humanity has died. And with it, most of my self worth, respect, and patience. I have nothing against any one of you because I simply dont care for alot of you. I dont know you personally and while I have tried before to make pleasant conversation, any time you join me it is in opposition and aggression. Or in an awkward attempt for peace without the foreknowledge that there was no anger to start with. Seriously, understand the people you're talking to before you try to take control of the situation. It's happened too many times where I'm having a pleasant debate with someone and because we're using language or attitudes that some third party isnt comfortable with, we're asked to calm down.
I have never tried to throw my weight around as an older user. Fuck, I actually create new accounts every once in a while so that people wont treat me like an older user.
My name is James, but you may call me Bob. And I have seen this website crumble from a thriving utopia to a crawling hive of sex and self pity. I dont expect alot of you to understand what I'm coming from or what I'm trying to say. I just dont want to be labeled as a bad guy for reasons that you dont try to understand. -
Thumbs up 4 bob

Please acknowledge that I stated: "GTQ faded long ago, and the character of some of its members too." Some is where the emphasis is present - I should have clarified that.
Furthermore:
"...any time you join me it is in opposition and aggression."
I disagree with half of that statement - I was never aggressive.
"Or in an awkward attempt for peace without the foreknowledge that there was no anger to start with."
Not once - in our debates or debates involving other members - have I interjected to do that. During a debate, just because I am calm does not mean I am in anyway telling or indicating you or others to be calm as well. If I'm not mistaken, it was actually you - during a past debate - in which you (unnecessarily) thought to bring peace by re-informing us about respect for each others beliefs and not be religiously persuasive.
Despite our differences in belief and I not knowing you personally, I never found you to be aggressive or intimidating. And certainly never a bully or deliberately offensive. I think it's great that you do not sugar coat facts or your opinions, and I thought of you as an open minded and fair individual, as well as an unarguably gifted debater. Like I mentioned - despite our differences - I never thought or labelled you as a bad person. I'm sorry you felt that way. -
Leah, I am sorry if I misunderstood your post and if my memory was shady. I could swear I remember you jumping into some of my more heated debates to refferee before, but I'm not doubting that I might be wrong on that. Please understand that while part of my most recent post on this thread was in direct response to you, that it was also meant for everyone in general. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
