i'm kind of getting tired of people talking like they're above others. and of people that think they're smarter than others. and also of people that get off on insulting people with differing opinions.



just my thought as i'm cruising all the forums. i'm seeing it everywhere. it's really disgusting. and not to mention incredibly annoying.

Re: note to mindsayers::
haha. no problem.

it's not really like a spamming problem or anything. people are just being really mean to each other in some of the topics. i mean yeah myself included in here but people are just being downright rude for no reason. like they read someone's post wrong and then it's a huge fight in every other topic that that person's ever posted in. of course that's only in rare cases but seriously.

then again this could just be me. but i do sometimes just browse around and i see people getting really pissed off because someone else had a different opinion sometimes. it kinda makes me sad. :-(

Re: note to mindsayers::
Ah, it's the MindSay I used to know (now available in the forums! lol) 

I was just wondering if there was a flame war or something.  Lately, when I see a flame post, I forward it to the mod of that forum and just let them deal with it.  I can't do all the work myself.  Remember that guy that called you Lenny, I'm inches from banning him.  But I issued a warning. 

I can detect spam with no problems.  I don't hesitate with the banhammer.

Re: note to mindsayers::
haha. yeah i guess so. some people are just douches here. (no offense.) but i'm seeing a lot of suicidal creeps and dumbasses that think they're way smart. but of course then there are the genuinely nice people too. but a lot of suicidal creep asses.

i remember a guy that called me lenny but i don't remember who he was...?  and i also saw that one person that posted like 45 bulletins that all said the same thing about sex abuse or online abuse or something like that. they made like different accounts and had conversations with themselves. only the person forgot to sign out of one account and into another so it was way obvious he was having a convo with himself. kinda funny actually. only totally dumb.

Re: note to mindsayers::
I agree.  I do remember a time when some MindSayer posted about committing suicide, and all of Mindsay posted their sympathy for her.  I'm like, "is she dead yet, fuck!"

It was in that forum "NBA Betting Scandal".  That one person who posted those things about abuse and what not, BANNED.

Maybe in MindSay, people can get away with being douchebags, but in the forums, I don't tolerate shit like that.

Re: note to mindsayers::
oh god yes i know. like can't people realize that if they're stupid enough to kill themselves, just let them? if they od'd it's their own damn fault. i hate it when people sit around and talk about how everyone should be 'praying for' or 'feeling sorry for' someone that's in the hospital because they tried to kill themselves. it's their own fault, why are you feeling bad? you should be pissed off.

ooohhh right right right. i remember that guy. he really pissed me off. i tried to put him down but not be a rude ass fuck about it. i think people should do that more often. like if someone has an actual reason to put someone else down (i.e. racism, hate.) then go ahead do it. but don't be a shitface about it.

but of course, you know there's gunna be at least one retard. but i guess that's life.

Re: note to mindsayers::
I have no problem with attention whores, I can even be one once in a while, but if an attention whore is stupid enough to try dangerous tactics and offs him/herself, it's nobody's fault but theirs.

That being said, yes, I agree.  Getting in a fuss about publicly suicidal people and their wellbeing is like worrying about a murderer's happiness.  Suicide is murder for newbs.
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers::
thank you for agreeing! not sure if you noticed but i'm kind of not getting much of that right now.

not that it bothers me, i'm just waiting for the right time to block this kid.

and i honestly hate people like that. but i also dislike the people that honestly try and "save" them. are you serious? just let them. if you show you don't care, then they won't do it. it's all attention.

Re: note to mindsayers::
I don't hate anyone over it, I learned long ago that hating anyone is just a lose-lose situation because it's a waste of my time and energy.  I have, however, become a terribly accurate shot with my ignore cannon, as we used to call it on Yahoo! chat...

if you don't want to be insulted don't insult other people

Re: note to mindsayers::
hardly.

he was a racist. i didn't insult him either. i disagreed with his racist points, so i said things to that effect. you weren't there. you obviously don't know then huh?
Boyscout on
Re: note to mindsayers::
"suicidal creeps and dumbasses"  not an insult?

So what if he is a racist. It's his view. why do you "get off on insulting people with differing opinions. "
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers::
hint: follow the conversation.

and i didn't insult him. again, you weren't there were you? guess you have no right to talk eh?
Boyscout on
Re: note to mindsayers::
*shrugs* your right i wasn't there. I also wasn't around during the Vietnam war doesn't mean i haven't learned enough about it to make a judgment on weather we should have be there or not.

But you admit you were insulting Someone?
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers::
that's your opinion, thanks? and nobody will care, by the way. it's over and done with, just like this eh?

and i never admitted that? i'm sorry but you're reading something i didn't put. maybe you should
read.
it.
again.
Boyscout on
Re: note to mindsayers::
*laughs* wow this is funny. I read something at face value you tell me to read it again and once i try to start reading into things you say I'm reading the wrong thing. Man you are fun.

You said "nd i didn't insult him." Instead of "I didn't insult anyone" Which implies you were insulting someone 
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers::
that's because you're not finding what you're supposed to be finding. i'm not going to sit here and explain it to you. i have confidence in you Boyscout! you can do it! do it the Boy Scout way!!

meaning read it over and over again until you get it basically.

and um. wow. again. woooowww. we were talking about this specific person, were we not? therefore i said "i didn't insult him". my sincerest apologies. now every time anyone asks me about it i'll make sure i type anyone instead of him or her, kay? just for you.
Boyscout on
Re: note to mindsayers::
I'm suppose to find something that isn't there? Even as an eagle scout I couldn't do that. We are good but hardly god cant make something out of nothing.

And you are much to kind of you. I hope you think about me that often
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers::
you're supposed to read it until you get it. it's not hard, really. have an open mind would you?

god = God. it's a proper noun.
to = too. sorry but simple grammar mistakes just irk me. especially at this age past elementary, you know?
Boyscout on
Re: note to mindsayers::
*laughs* if iw ould have know that grammer erros were a problem for you i would ahve thrown more in.

I've read it and read it and I'm not see what you claim is there.

Re: note to mindsayers:
Yeah, I'm not so big on the forums anymore myself.  It seemed great for the first month or so when it was new and people seemed to use it as I expected to see forums.  Then it turned more or less into a different kind of "chat" program and I lost interest.  Or maybe I'm just a freak and am the odd one out.... who knows, lol.

Re: note to mindsayers:
There are people that are smarter
There are people that are better then you

Why shouldn't they act accordingly?
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers:
no doubt about it.
better? that's something to talk about then.


not saying i'm going to stop anyone. just a thought. read it again and think about it now kay?
Boyscout on
Re: note to mindsayers:
not saying you shouldn't stop them just whats your problem with people being better then you?

Again, Wouldn't have said anything unless i read it a few times.

Re: note to mindsayers:
my problem isn't with people being "better" than i. damn. read the whole thing through will you? i think it'll do you a world of good.

um. no. i have a problem with people who AREN'T better than other people and going around acting like it.

gosh. can you read? are you okay?

Re: note to mindsayers:
This reminds me of a post...

started out with the line "people should..." or something like that.  Perfectly nice post.  Upset a lot of people.  I'll look for it.
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers:
a post you put up? just curious.

and i honestly don't know where this kid came from. i just came here earlier today to see about six comments with some sort of stupid remark about my post and who i am on it. really funny to tell you the truth. my girlfriend and i are having a blast right now.

i'm just waiting till he leaves though. i have stuff to do, you know?
iiioxxoxxoiii on
Re: note to mindsayers:
A post put up my a friend of mine.  She meant well.  It could have been taken multiple ways though.  The word "should" was the main issue.  It ended badly.  I feel the people most responsible for the most harm were actually the two who were trying to defend her... 
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers:
yeah. yeah. i get it.

but if it wasn't that bad of things then i don't see why people need to but in on it. i mean if it was stuff like "be more racist" i mean, yeah.

but i doubt it was like that. HIGHLY.
iiioxxoxxoiii on
Re: note to mindsayers:
Well if a post is written publicly then technically it is for everyone to read... and respond to as they see fit.
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers:
hm. yes, true.

but that's the thing. i see it as a privilege, don't you? i mean, they don't HAVE to put it as public, but they do anyways. to get some comments and maybe start a nice conversation.

only people are jerks about it. that's what bothers me. i have no problem with people disagreeing with me, just don't be a jerk about it. be civil and see opinions as they are, opinions. that's the way i see it.
iiioxxoxxoiii on
Re: note to mindsayers:
Thats where he and I differ.  I only attack if a post offends me.  He's a shark.  He sees blood and well...
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers:
yeah whatever though.

he obviously needs a life then. he saw one post somewhere and just looks through my blog for things to piss on. self confidence issues much? i believe so.
Boyscout on
Re: note to mindsayers:
Of course i can read or else i wouldn't be quoting you every time i get a chance.

Who are you to judge who isn't better then you. If someone was better then you theres a good chance you wouldn't realize it and even if you did you'd ignore it and wanted to be treated equal
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers:
all man and woman is created equal, eh?

you can be better than someone at something, but never wholly better than someone. and even then, it's an opinion.
Boyscout on
Re: note to mindsayers:
Yes you can. Not whole created equal thing is BS. Are you telling me a brain dead baby is was made just as good equal Albert Camus? I think not. There are people better then you it happens get sued to being treated like crap and you'll find theres alot of people better then you
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers:
um. actually yes that is what i'm saying. we're all human, right?

it sucks that you think not. i doubt you'll get anywhere if you think that there are people just so much better than you.
Boyscout on
Re: note to mindsayers:
*laugh* yeah all human but mentally some people are roaches why some are pigs. Or as you like to put metaphors some people are black some are white

Never said I think any one is better. though i do know that there are atleast two people that i know of that are better then me a good screw of people that are my equal and even more that are below me.

they're nice guys. i like them. i sometimes wish i had a brother so he could be in Boy Scouts and i could go on the trips with them. my friend does and she says they're really fun.

Re: note to mindsayers:
We didn't have them in my little town but my parents had a tourist business and they used to camp there. The leaders knew my parents and would let me take part. They were from PA so i was their resident Canadian feral Boy to ask questions of and make fun of my accent.

Re: note to mindsayers:

i was in GIRL SCOUTS but it basically sucked. we sold cookies. yeah those are good, but no. more into the camping and survival type thing to tell the truth. something we could need? yes yes. i do agree.

I started my own non group group when I worked in a grocery store. It was the uniform free underground group "Peripheral Visionaries.

peripheral visionaries? haha. awesome.

what'd you do?

Re: note to mindsayers:
I work in a hardware store now and mix paint but in real life i am on Mindsay and a nerw grandfather. I used to be a storyteller but head injuries have made it that I cannot do that now because of poor memory. 
I carried on my Peripheral Visionary tradition here at Mindsay. if you check my Archives check any blog that has a tag "fcpv" That is a satirical and sometimes serious series on Spirituality. My first career was as a clergy but I got out of that at 28.

One of my best days here was when a cult investigator was checking out and finally realized it was satirical.

What is it you do.
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers:
ooohh. that's interesting. i don't know much about Spirituality at all really but i am interested.

and a clergy...that's something with a church. what exactly does a clergy do? sorry but i'm really uneducated in that field.

cult investigator? exciting! i read a book on cults once, but it was a while ago. but then i saw a program on t.v. about cults. i forgot all the names basically but it was incredibly interesting but i couldn't finish it as it was too late for me. it was one of those 4 hour things but it was really cool.

and me? full time sophomore in high school. i run cross country but the season's almost over, and i should be getting a job over the holidays. after that it's spring track season and then the summer.
eyesthebye on
Re: note to mindsayers:
My nephew is a cross country runner up here in the great white North. Its a great sport. should be on TV rather than baseball, wrestling and worst of all car races.

A clergy is a minister or in the catholic church a priest.

People used to equate spirituality with relgion but they can be two totally different things.
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers:
definitely! only it's not exactly a major spectator sport, you know. PRE made track and field one in the 70's but he's long gone. he'll never be forgotten, but the sport basically is.

oh really? hm. i thought a Clergy was somewhere below a priest. but that's exciting, i guess. if you go for the whole, monogamy type thing.

yeah i've heard that they are different things. but i'm just not quite sure what it is really.

Re: note to mindsayers:
I did a 2 hour test on the on the internet last year to see what my real spirituality was. it said i am 95% Reformed Jewish.

There are many things in Jewish thought that I am much more comfortable with than Christianity.
beccsaloser on
Re: note to mindsayers:
gyah. Reform? nooo. if anything pick Conservative, please.

Christianity has things in it that just bother me like no other. like you have to just believe something to get into heaven? what about how you act? that should play a far bigger part then if you believe some guy died.
