Forum Thread

The lounge really has gone downhill.

14,733 848 June 19, 2007 at 11:25 AM in Rant
What is with the new people constantly going into threads and cutting people down? Why are we putting down other's screennames? why are we so goshdarn rude? This site has gotten out of control and mods really need to take control of the rudeness of it. This site used to be such a nice place to hang out. Now you have to stand up for yourself in every thread you make because the asshats come along and either hijack the thread or will start being, well, asshats. And people wonder why we start going to other forums?

We have the mod alert feature for a reason, people. Use it. There are eleven of us, and thousands of all of you. We can't read every post.

The Lounge is what you make it. You have the control to help make it better. You want a better Lounge? Be pro-active and do something about it.

its not only the new people that put others down...might i direct you to how the oldies treat the new people who come on here and really have something to ask or say. not to mention the cliques that do the rounds in the lounge. yes they DO exist.
You're right... Yes, a woman just told you that you're right. laugh out loud

most of those people have made their way over to some other locations that I will not speak of.
but those other places keep those types of posts in one section which is a great idea I think.

Wow, you guys think people in the lounge are mean? You should check out the gamer's lounge sometime. Unbelievable amount of hostility over who plays/likes which system. It's actually pretty entertaining how riled up some people get over some of the posts.

I don't have anything against you, but you have said things on more than one occasion that has seriously offended me to the point of me wanting to place you on ignore. But I decided that I would just deal with it...

Kimber, on the other hand, has never offended me.

So I guess we have a difference of opinion...

I could be wrong, but I think that my post directed towards FTM in another thread could have partially inspired this thread. I was getting irritated because there were roughly three pages of everyone saying the same exact thing, and I lashed out a little bit on FTM when there was really no reason to.

So for only the second time ever, I'm going to use the below smiley.

Sorry

we cool?

I did agree with you on that post. The oldies do have cliques and some of them are mean.

Well this is not elementary school and we can't tell on every person or every time our feelings get hurt! It is unfortunate that people have to cut other's down but it doesn't really bother me because it doesn't really happen to me. I just come on here because I think you guys are funny and I enjoy playing the lounge games. On occasion I maybe had hurt feelings but this is the internet and you honestly need to take it for what it's worth! Isn't there a song "life is what you make it"?

I saw that, and was wondering how he managed to come up with that equation.

Scorpio guy = asshole.

Therefore, everyone else = asshole ?

Seems like we're missing a step somewhere.

If people didn't take things to heart or take things so personally, we wouldn't even have this conversation.

People are assholes, and in an online forum people are even less afraid to be asshole (especially if they see others doing it, and think that it's sooo cool), because what's the worst that can happen - you'll get banned? IRL you'll get the beating of your lifetime.
