I reckon this is true aswell, and I've been working on it... thanks Spec

The worst thing you can do is think about what bad things could happen. Relationships need optimistic outlooks. Don't tempt fate by thinking about the possibilities.

Besides, from what you have told me your relationship seems very solid. It's like you two get on perfectly together.

(Oh, and cheers for trying to drag this thread back into the land of the living after the immature little comments being passed around.)

I really needed to hear (erm... or read ) that, mate, cheers This seems to be one of my biggest flaws, and I gotta work on it. I've got to take this "pessimism googles" out of my eyes and be less perfectionist/harsh on myself

We've got to try something before closing a thread, don't we? This is the only way we have to convince Swamper grant us access to the mods' secret porn archi... erm, never mind

Originally posted by Lira Spec, I really don't like criticising others when I'm not directly involved, but don't you thing there's something slightly wrong when a whole forum is arguing with you? If it seems uncalled for to you, just ignore them and they shall do the same. Seriously, these arguments between you and the whole world are becoming annoying already, and this is just an internet forum. As Delay Llama said, one side's got to stop, and since you're in smaller number, I guess it would be easier if you stopped. There's no need to prove yourself right all the time, nor to state an opinion that might be considered offensive (or, if you think they're not offensive, just don't say anythng at all). You've been banned in the past, and I don't think you would like us to warn you again, do you? I'm off to bed now, gotta work tomorrow morning. Aye, I guess you're right about these misfortunes. Thank you

Thats so wrong in so many different ways.

You seem like a decent guy from what I have seen, and thats why your post above suprises me.

I agree that these silly immature arguments are annoying, they are in the extreme. It seems this forum army of moral crusaders feel a need to get involved in any discussion where people don't agree with each other. You get this person sticking up for this one just in case they got offended, that person sticking up for this one just because there is a chance the world might think they are no longer a good person and that person sticking up for that person because everybody else is. A little too much arse slapping if you ask me.

A closer look will show a whole army of over-reactors. Its like the uproar when Janet Jackson showed her nipple on television, the smallest event in the history of humankind and the huge response from a population of conservative twats, thats pretty much what happens here when I post. I'm not that offensive at all, but people seem to feel this need to attack me, I'm even getting picked on for my spelling. I will ensure to make sure my grammar in the future is perfect to ensure that I don't cause any more problems.

I guess it would be easier just to ban me, and anybody else that doesn't agree with the majority, but thats just a little over the top I would think. You will notice that its not just me, other posters have coined a term 'ta communists'.

Is it a rule that everybody must get along?

And am I really that offensive? Most of the time there appears to be at least a few people that agree with me.

Don't accept that idea that you have flaws, confidence is the only solution.

Watch how much girls will not let you go if you are confident enough for them to believe that you will do just fine without them and won't have trouble meeting someone else.

Sometimes in relationships people lose themselves, and you've gotta make sure this doens't happen, and don't be harsh on yourself. If you can't love yourself, how is anybody else going to?

PS, I don't like to see threads closed at all, and it crap that people attacking me causes this to happen.

yes you truly are the victim of a TA witch hunt. I wish our attempts to get you to give up would only be more successful. You encourage those on the forum to reach new lows with your little snide comments. We're all tired of them and that's why you deserve everything that's been said and more. I usually don't get caught up in these kind of things, but for you I'll make an exception because you truly are a peice of shit...and I'm going to remind you of that everytime you start up your bullshit.

I need to meet some of the TA women so they can tell me why they wouldnt date me that would totally help...

Except those I have planned to meet have all ditched me!

But the easier thing is not always the right thing to do I myself would hate to pm you a warning, for example, as I know you do contribute to these boards quite often.

No, not at all, but when a serious amount of threads are being hijacked or the flames come to weird levels, we've got to do something about it. Usually, the best thing to do is to step back and let things calm down naturally.

You know, even if you're right, if the other person is irate, you're not going to convince anyone. That's like this in real life too.

It's not what you say, Spec, but sometimes it's all about how you say it. For example:

quote:

Originally posted by Vlad The most adventurous thing Ive ever done is not loosing my virginity yet (Ill be 21 soon). quote: Originally posted by spec The questions wasn't "who's the biggest nerd?".

I know you're just meaning to either joke or state your opinion that being virgin for that long is pointless, but this comment may sound offensive to many people (I actually was a tad bit offended by it, since I had actually chose to be a virgin till my early 20's for reasons that won't be meaningful to this discussion), and that's why people may argue with you.

Well, I really do need to sleep now as I have to work tomorrow morning. In any case, do feel free to PM me, mate, so people can carry on with the original discussion



-------
Talking about the original discussion, the reason why I think I'd better accept the fact that I have flaws is because, no matter how much I like myself (edit: and I do ), I can always get better. We all can. If I ignore it, I know I can become arrogant, and may commit stupid mistakes simply by not meaning to see them.

I've done it in the past, and I guess I learned my lesson. I guess we should be confident enough to know that we always need to improve. Or that's just me sleepy

spec - Give me a break. As stated before, I am merely doing what you have done to others. I am surprised that you haven't caught on to that yet. I could give a shit about your spelling. Spell every single word wrong. It won't have any impact on my life.

I agree we are all different and don't share each others views. How many times have you called someone on TA a loser for being different from you? Just because we don't think and act like you doesn't make us losers.
