Well, it's been a good four years... at least i'd like to think so anyways... but i think my time here is done. I don't seem to be wanted, nor do i want to be here. I'd rather eat nails than sit around babysitting a bunch of whiny nerds and fanboys. Yeah, kinda hypocritcal of me to say such, but fuck you. I've wasted enough of my goddamn time seeing you fucks get all in a riot whenever i make a post.

In all honesty, I don't give a damn about this place anymore. I did, at one point. I've had friends here come and go because of how absolutely RETARDED some of you dipshits act. I wanted to change things so that way, maybe one day my friends could come back and post. But apparently, banning people that are considered a general pain in the ass doesn't fly. We have to follow the system, they say. What goddamn system? We have no goddamn system. We're too busy pussyfooting around, waiting for Ace who's just going to "ok" whatever anyways.

Not to mention the whole thing with double standards. If a normal user... hell, a random newbie acted the way i did. They'd be banned on the spot. No questions, no thread in staff. Just "ok, he doesn't look like he'll be a good member *ban*

But other users, and even staff like myself get away with it, even if we say we have a "zero tolerance" for it. Put your goddamn foot down.

I don't even mean it to be insulting half the time. If you DO find it insulting, you probably shouldn't even be here to begin with.

Oh, and if you're going to berate me for it, don't do it yourself. It really doesnt' look good, you know =)

To prove i'm not a total asshole... here's just a little something i've learned through my experiences here

No matter how much you may think otherwise... There are definetly cool people into this kind of stuff wherever you are. You just have to stop being so goddamn anti-social and find them. Use the internet to find them, even. They're there.

don't waste your time being angry and thinking you're more intelligent than people around you, and thinking you're totally alone and the only cool people live ON THE INTERNET. I went down that path, and i missed out on a LOT of oppourtunities to meet people because of it.

I know this post is all incoherent and some of this sounds really weird considering the inital tone of the thread... but... I wanna say one last thing (well, before the standard shout outs/fuck yous, anyways) This place was my first online community. If i never came here, my life would still be shitty. I probably wouldn't have found a place where i fit in IRL if it wasn't for this place...

While there's a ton of bad things that can be said about this place, in the end this is one of the nicest, friendliest, and most welcoming communities i have ever seen. You're a great bunch.

You know what, i don't really need to post shout outs/fuck yous. I'll probably see you all around anyways.

You wanna talk/keep in touch? I don't mind. If i don't like you i'll block you so no skin off my back.

Well, I can't say I knew you particularly well, but I will miss you.

Rather than dwell on the initial tone of the message, I'd rather wish you well on the rest of your life. I'd hope that we could still see you around from time to time, let us know how things are going, but if you don't want to, obviously that's your choice.

I second a lot of your advice, particularly about missing opportunities to meet people, and it's something that I need to work on (problem with me though isn't that I don't think there aren't cool people "IRL" it's just they're... scarier there. )

I'd also like to thank you for your services to the board. I know you've been working on this place and helping out for a long time, and I appreciate that we have people around who are willing to lend a hand, even though it isn't always fun and all.

Anyways, good luck with things, and I hope you have lots of fun with your life Don't worry about babysitting us. We'll either look after ourselves or tear each other apart

The humor level of the board has dropped to dangerous levels with this latest news. We may be forced to rely on Kyouji Craw *shudder*. Bye Valcion. Kind of disappointing seeing a board icon.

Shut the hell up.

I can't say what you wrote doesn't strike me as exactly the way things are run. "But apparently, banning people that are considered a general pain in the ass doesn't fly." No, it doesn't. Because when we do, any one of us, we're power abuse nazis "taking over the board", and other staff members makes jokes behind our backs because they think the rules is where it ends. The rules is where it starts. Anything else is a delusion.

I understand your decision. Have fun.

I think the password for his main account fucked up when Jizuko did something to it... so that's why he is using some other name if anyone wonders. Not that it matters much when he left...

Mmm, can't say I hated Phil. At times I did disagree with him, especially about some stuff about the board. But I don't have any problems with him personally. And he is quite nice to talk with.

Sad to see you go thought. Even if you did... questionable things at times.

Good luck, people get tired of things regardless of what it is, but just be careful. Regardless of what you may think, you'll remember some of the poeple here and regret leaving for a while. Have fun man, and don't stress yourself out over unimportant things.

What happened? Can Someone please explain? But anyway.....

Ill miss you.

I cant say that i knew you very well.... or knew you at all... but your jokes alwats gave me something to laugh about and I belive you have a good sense of humour. Seeing as I dont know what happened, i cant really understand your point of view..... But whatever the reason, it is probably a good one and a respect your opinion.

'How retarded people act'? This has to be one of the most intelligent forums I know of, besides the stupid n00bs every now and then (but that can hardly be helped now can it? ).

That's the CHORUS, not the song title (take out the first 3 words).

I'd say I had a love/hate relationship with Phil. Didn't have a problem with him as a person at all, but had a problem sometimes with how he dealt with stuff on the board... Oh well. It's in the past now.

Truthfully, I didn't have enough interaction with him as a staff member to give my opinion on him one way or the other in that regard.

But from what I saw, he was a cool guy, and will be missed.

I agree. Most people here are intelligent except for the newbies. The only reason people call members here retarded is because they disagree with them.
