Why would someone take the time out of their busy life to create more drama? If you don't like the bickering then why bother creating an arena where that is going to occur? Rhaorth Antonelli - started a thread asking if anyone noticed if bickering, etc was going on and the same old things happening in the threads day in and day out. Well if you notice it Rhaorth take the giant leap and change it! Perhaps moving onto another thread and reading something that you can better relate to, or is this it? I think you wasted your own time in posting your original message to this thread and ultimately want to start pointing fingers at everyone else.

Grow up and take a more positive stance. Post something positive to a thread and perhaps the bickering can end. Everyone has the power to control their actions. Much like I have the control mine right now. But, I got sucked into this because this is the type of immaturity that you are trying to curb Rhaorth. So take the bull by the horns and make your way to doing something more productive with your time.

Rhaorth is big enough to fight Rhaorth's own fighs BUT leave Rhaorth alone. Its your first coment ever Chardonnay. Its an imprortant post that's Rhaorth started. We are coming to an end of somethign in sl and teh old ones are kinda saying goodbye to old things. But teh future dont look too bright considering teh sanctimonious types we are starting to get round here.
Keep posting Rhaorth. I'll join you soon.
My thread woulda started off as "Do wa*kers ever change?"
Rhaorth just politer than me.

Considering that Jig's type of thread's are exactly what the OP is complaining about I find this posting highly ironic. In fact the irony goes even deeper because the subject of this thread is exactly what the OP is complaining about.

There have always been sanctimonious types around here and there always will be, mostly telling everyone what is socially "normal" and "acceptable" to do with our daily SLives or by telling us how wrong it is to engage in certain activities in SL and most of us have been guilty of it too at one time or another.

I personally would never have started such a flamebait thread but obviously others require more attention than I do.

Anyway to get "back on topic" My answer to the OP is:

No, what the hell do you expect? Why should anything change unless people change themselves.

no rha, youre not the only person to feel that this is all a bit trite.
im not complaining about it, but i recognise it and am not a huge fan of it. i find that once the talk of pie and panties starts up i tune out.

it is not lost on me you are the op of what is without a doubt the most flagrant example of such a thread (yes i am aware that wasnt your intent) :)

eta: oh i didnt realise this was a drama thread. sorry for the intrusion!

if the words were written by someone well liked then everyone would have been offering sympathetic hugs and telling them the forums will get better, it is just a rough spot


Maybe this is what she wants... :(

actually if you read back a bit, you will realize how wrong you are

I actually enjoy jigs threads

it is just the idiots that decide to turn it into a flame war that screw it up for others
(just as people felt the need to come here and tell me to grow up, etc, what does that say about them?)

Then if errors could be bottled you could probably solve the world energy crisis singlehanded.

If folks want to tell me things will get better that of course is fine, if folks want to tell me that things are screwed so expect them to stay that way, that is fine too

but why the hell do they feel the need to come in here and tell me I need to grow the fuck up, that I am basically as bad as the rest

when all I did was ask if people see it the same way I do


should I have asked it this way

I think the forums suck

do you?

oh wait, someone would have found some reason to poke that stick at me

*shrug*

they are just as bad as they say I am

eta: oh i didnt realise this was a drama thread. sorry for the intrusion!



it was not intended for a drama thread, nor was it intended to be the type of thread it is about, it was to see if I am the only one who sees things this way

and thankfully I am not

some spoke out here, such as yourself, saying they see it too, others decided to PM me to tell me I am not alone (they probably do not want to be the brunt of the people who have such sad lives they have nothing better to do than to belittle another person, or to twist the other's words to put them in a bad light)

to those who dislike me... and you know who you are

IF you dislike me, why do you feel the need to post things to make others dislike me? why do you feel the need to post at all? (and I am not referring to this thread, but in general) hell that goes to anyone who dislikes someone else, why post to them or about them, or even read their threads?

From: Rhaorth Antonelli
I see nothing wrong with people wanting to talk about the general state of affairs, however in my observation, RA is not that place.


From: Rhaorth Antonelli
sadly you are correct, this is what RA (RESIDENT ANSWERS) has become....

I personally, would like to see it be moderated with a heavy hand and be what RA is supposed to be.

bring back general chat, keep RA and let it be a place to ask questions and receive answers and let the general stuff be elsewhere
Jig's threads don't fit anywhere in there that I see.

You speak double-speak.

As for the rest, you are reaping what you have sown.

I remember lots and lots of times you came to RA for sympathy or encouragement and got it in heaps but that was never enough. For as long as I have been reading these forums you have always complained about being unpopular and not accepted despite many assurances to the contrary by many.

This thread keeps reminding me of a podcast I listened to yesterday:

If you dislike the forums so much why bother posting? Why not just not read it if you don't like it? You have contributed to the way RA is today.
I remember when you used to post your clothing adverts in the undead thread when you knew you should be posting them in the proper area, nobody came down on you then, not even me.
You used to contribute to the undead thread at one point even. You have regaled us about your medical problems as part of general chat here amongst other things and you have complained a lot.
You complain about the very things you have been a part of like you are innocent. Not convincing at all.

I for one post because I can no longer stand your whinging and hypocrisy and I am entitled to say that. If you don't like it then tough.

DID YOU MISS WHERE I SAID I LIKE THE FORUMS????
It is the some of the people I am not too fond of, and I will be damned if I will stop posting here just because of a few

and I will continue to "whine" and complain and bitch and moan, and do whatever else it is you accuse me of

and I never once said I was unpopular, I have said I have the feeling that folks here do not like me and that was confirmed by some in PM that outright told me they do not like me.

actually quite contrary, I do think I am rather popular in here (as in well known) after nearly 3 years of posting, I am sure a few people know the name

popularity does not equal being well liked

and I used to care if people here like me, but I don't care anymore, it is not worth caring if people I do not even know and have nothing to do with my life, like me or not.

on that note, THAT is why I post what I post, it is fun to see how many of you come out of the wood work to poke that stick again

I have learned to not let the words of a stranger hurt me.

and I can say you are a conceited bitch who looks for any reason to poke someone with a pointy stick, and I am just as entitled to say that.

you may not agree, but...

This is going well so far.

:eek:

Not that it's going to help here, but: Almost always when I find myself typing "you" into a post, I go back and ask myself whether I really, honestly mean "one". If yes, I change it. If no, I delete the post.

But YMMV. ;)

I hurl insults????
OMG have you looked at the shit you spew out????

and I only said how I see you, you choose to take it as an insult

personally I am not insulted by your comments about me, because I know in my heart who I am and it is not who you think I am

you "think" what you say are truths, but you are wrong

and no my dear, you have no idea who you are dealing with, you don't know me from Adam.. you just think you do and for some reason you get off on pretending to be able to "peg" people

*shrug*

yes my comment was a little over the top, however it's intent was to show that sure, we can all have an opinion, and not everyone will like it, just as you do not like my opinion of you

I won't like others' opinions of me, but that doesn't mean I care about it, just means I don't like it
