When did the Hype become such a bad place to visit...?

[logan_weapon_x]

I have frequented the boards for a few years know and some of you may know me. I went through a period where I didn't post and now I came back.

Since coming back I've been met with nothing but hostility from posters, such as 'my opinion is ****', and ' i don't count for ****'. I remember a time where we could rip each other and have laugh but now it just seems it how nasty can you be to someone. Just not really the hype I remember.

It's not the Hype that sucks. It's you that sucks.

I'm sorry. I just wanted to be the witty 2nd poster for once.

 

[Untilteld]

I see you've had an encounter with tob.

 

[logan_weapon_x]

Hey at least you replied, and yeah I'm kinda guessing I'm gonna get the whole 'stop moaning' stuff coming through...

 

[Gilpesh]

Well, let's see what opinion of yours is being called ****?

Cause it just might be. Never know.

 

[logan_weapon_x]

My point is no one's opinion is ****.

 

[Jack Rabbit]

No, you have a point. I think there was an influx of idiots that outweighed the more level-headed, intelligent posters, either driving them away or else creating a hostile, bitter environment in response to all the stupidity running rampant.

Since a certain mentality has formed amongst a certain clique who frequent a spin-off board that shall remain nameless. That mentality states the only way to prove your own self worth is by insulting others over the internet. At anyrate, welcome back Logan Don't like the vocal minority fool you. There are still plenty of good posters here.

 

[Gilpesh]

My point is no one's opinion is ****.

There are some **** opinions out there. Just look how many bad movies get one liner quotes for commercials.

Yup. Nothing says "I'm a badass" like throwing insults at people you don't even know, on the web.

That's true, at least you're not being an ass about things.

 

[jaguarr]

It's not as bad as all that. Welcome back and stick around!

I also find it quite interesting that at least two people (Immortalfire and Matt) on this thread were posters from back when I used to frequent the boards. Maybe it's that old thing where things always change and I've been away and come back and now there's hardly anyone here I know. I'm just a dinosaur.

 

[Gilpesh]

I save that for important things... like *****ing about I Am Legend or Creationism.

I saw this giant change during the arrival of the 2006 posters. I've been reading the boards since Spider-Man Hype! and posters would always respect each other and they continued to, even through 2005 and a lot of 2006 but then a lot of posters came and a lot of the older posters changed and there have been loads of *****e bags running around flaming each other now.

 

[Noir]

This thread sucks.

Bring Back Kritish.

 

[Gilpesh]

there have been loads of *****e bags running around flaming each other now.

I prefer the term, *****. Thank you.

 

[Dangerous]

I guess it depends who ya talkin to and about what, I don get any crap.

 

[logan_weapon_x]

Yeah I suppose you're right Dangerous. I think i've just went into a couple of bad threads.

 

[Fran]

This thread sucks.

Bring Back Kritish.

Kritish sucked

 

[Spade]

Kritish sucked

How, exactly, did Kritish suck?

 

[Jack Rabbit]

Don't like the vocal minority fool you. There are still plenty of good posters here.

That's a lie.

Matt's a *****e!

 

[Showtime]

I don't know who you are, but welcome back and you won't find that attitude with me.

 

[jaguarr]

I don't know who you are, but welcome back and you won't find that attitude with me.

If memory serves me correctly, he's got Wolverine tattoos. He's good people.

What does happen sometimes though, is people misinterpret the tone of something I say. I'l poke fun at something just having a laugh and someone replies to it seriously.

If you 'know' certain posters on certain boards here, you can have a laugh with them and call each other names.

Alas, there will also be actual d-ickheads on any board too.
