Shyguy The Original Femme Fatale! Level: 57 Posts: 1893/1998 EXP: 1443008 For next: 42920 Since: 02-14-05 Since last post: 2 hours Last activity: 1 hour |

Seriously. One time, I tried asking someone what I'm doing wrong, and all they did was freak out and say THAT! and insist my typing and dialogue is making them crazy. What exactly I'm doing wrong is everyone's guess. Cause quite frankly I do NOT know. I used to be in a social setting like this IRL, but because of people complaining about my "way of talking", I am now just a loner. People call me emo, but I'm not. In short, in all honesty, and in all politeness, WHY THE HECK ARE PEOPLE SO FRIGGEN ANNOYED WITH ME!? (Sorry, venting.) |

You're annoying. You were annoying to start with, then you got a lot better. Recently you've "sunk" again. I can't explain myself because it's not one specific thing you do, it's how you act overall. Obviously this is just my own view. I'm sure you'll be able to get better insight as you get more and more responses. |

You seem to try too hard. People won't make fun of you if you don't have anything funny to say. It's better to look dumb and keep quiet than talk and prove it. Just stop searching for something funny to say every 5 seconds. (edited by Cornellius on 10-21-05 11:12 PM) |

Cornellius: Understood. I just get in way over my head at time. I bore easy. I'll try not to be too eccentric. YD: I have gotten better? That's kinda odd. I guess that's because I wasn't too active. But I promise I'll be a little more adult and be funny when the time asks. |

Good idea. The whole "I'll try acting loke Valcion and Leg but less cool; do you like me yet?" thing was getting pretty lame. Just start acting like NSNick. He's a model member. *hands Shyguy a bottle of Jack* | |||

Dude like, I have no clue who the hell you are usually. You change your name to much. You need to chill and stop worrying, and if you were tight pants, you're a fucking emo kid anyways, so you shouldn't complain. Anyways, in real life, just stick with your friends man. Don't give a damn what other's think, be yourself, if some people hate you, oh well, but if everyone hates you, unlikely, than at least people will respect you for being yourself. On that note. This is emo. (edited by Dracoon on 10-22-05 09:58 PM) |

Okay.... Shy, if I really did have to point to one particular thing about you that seems very, very off-putting, above all else, it'd be either your use of exclamation points in your style of writ that gives reason to believe you're way too excited about something, or your header and signature in your most common layout. In doing so I refer to your commentary about what you perceive to be your social status on the board in both sides of the post. We, to use your initial post as an example, don't need to be informed that you're "going back to your roots, but that's not you anymore". The reason? I don't know you well enough to take anything you say as a deep and meaningful part of your character, therefore the sight of such a statement on every one of your posts until you change it leads me to believe you are pressing an idea onto me that I simply can't understand. Actions speak louder than words. I realize that in a message board setting that makes no sense at all, but in a way it can be applied. What I mean is that you don't have to say you're gonna do anything before you do it, just do it. You wanna start having better grammar, or being silent and waiting for an opportunity to say something important, just do it. Telling people that you're going to is the same as interjecting with something stupid at an inapporpriate time, because describing your actions is always less appropriate than executing them. Similarly, don't try to be funny all the time, try to be intelligent, or understanding, and not set yourself up to be an instant personality. Don't show yourself to people, let people get to know you instead. A good example is the way you write your journal. It's understandable, concise, and you don't go out of your way to try to be funny when it's not necessary. That's more "you" than anything else. If you feel the need to be heard, bring that style here. It's a lot more personable than what you've been showing. As for real life, if you're a loner than so be it. It's a lot more mentally healthy to be alone and not care about what people think about you than it is to be surrounded by people that you're afraid to look stupid or "wrong" in front of. I gotta go with Dracoon here, stick with the friends you have. And don't be afraid to look stupid. And don't wear tight pants. Unless, like, you think they're comfy. |

Meh, don't worry about what people think. Most people on this board find me terribly annoying, but I don't stop posting. If you take everyone's advice on how to become 'less annoying,' then you'll become a shapeless blob of a person, afraid to show your real personality to people because of how they might judge you. | |||

Originally posted by SnikaI find it funny how you think you can give good advice about this. Really, have you been paying attention? The main reason of his being annoying is that he tries too hard. Doesn't that show less of his real personality than just being himself? |

Originally posted by SnikaThen I don't understand why you were suggesting he ignore what everyone else said. It doesn't matter that you weren't talking to me, you are talking on a public message board. If you only one person to respond to you, take it to private messages. Don't be an ass. |

Originally posted by Yoshi DudeOriginally posted by SnikaThen I don't understand why you were suggesting he ignore what everyone else said. Yoshi Dude, I do not appreciate you contradicting me. If you don't like my advice I gave to him, then please, don't read it. I am not trying to be an ass. You just told me that my advice sucked, so of course I am going to respond hastily. Next time, think twice before you act. I was trying to help this person out, and you had no business telling me that my offerings were awful. If I ever want your opinon on my posts, I'll give it to you. Thanks! |

Maybe Lilmario can explain his answer, now. This might help solve the problem. For me, name changing is very annoying. |

Originally posted by Snika Dude, knock it off. You can't control who replies to your posts, or what they say. She isn't doing anything wrong, she's replying to this thread and adding her opinion just like you are. The fact that she disagrees with you doesn't mean she's wrong. Where are you coming from? If you don't want people replying or picking at your posts, then DONT POST. That's what you do on a message board. You need to quit getting offended by it. |

Snika, what are you talking about? You're sorry that she's right? You're sorry she feels that she's stating the obvious? THat post was nothing more than +1 post count. It had no damn point. If you just acted like an adult and ignored her seemingly inferior opinion, or just posted an apology, none of this would have happened, and it would be dropped. Just knock it off, already. Shyguy, we tease you a lot, mostly becasue you make no sense in your posts. Kyouji flipped on you for that reason. Post coherently, if at all. That's an important step right there. |

Two things. 1. You draw too much negative attention to yourself. This thread was just flamebait waiting to happen. 2. You care too much about what your non-friends think. |
