MESSAGE FOR DRAGONCAT!

[The name master]

Hi! I tried PMng you, but your thingy was full, so...

Can you edit these sprites to make them look more grumpy/angry?

[kindtocrows]

oops, sorry about that. I'll try to clean it up later.
Sure, I'll give it a go.

[SirBlaziken]

I was going to say this doesn't need to be a topic, but then I saw the full pm box thing. BTW, mind making more of your topics under the correct boards (this one should be under sprite art for example)?

[sans the skeleton]

also maybe stop making irrelevant threads while we're on about your topic making thanks

tho this one is understandable lol

[The name master]

while we're on about your topic making

I literally did not understand any part of that sentence!

im on about how you make topics, dude.

like im gonna be blunt tbh:

you make pointless topics that don't actually promote discussion or debate (stuff that hasn't already been done to death like the hurr durr all modern bands such thread), like topics are supposed to.

like it's fantastic that you have enthusiasm, really, but a good 90% of your topics (including all of the ones with 0 responses) do not promote actual... conversation. or they're in the wrong category. or they're a little dodgy because you're impersonating a feature of the site (name rater, who is still around).

thats what i mean

xhanatos please don't take this personally but nobody's telling him to stop making threads

we're telling him to make more substantial threads

i'm too tired to make more and frankly i don't think anyone would be interested in the threads i make; my interests go far beyond pokemon and somehow never coincide with what's going on with people around here.  I also don't think anyone would be interested in the threads i make due to past experience; you absolutely cannot accuse me of trying my best to make threads in the past, and at this point it just feels futile since people seem more interested in egging him on than actually trying to improve things.

I know that you are fond of him but you're only encouraging him, and he latches onto people who praise him and then continues to post really irreverent stuff towards everyone else with a whole "see?  someone agrees with me!" sort of mentality.

I would sincerely be okay with threads like this if the name master legitimately had a better attitude when it came to both interacting with people and taking criticism.  The issue is that he really doesn't.  He seems to have no interest in actual interaction, just at showing stuff off that he discovered.  So please, stop rushing to his defense and exacerbating the issue; "at least he tries" isn't good enough anymore, because he has a very very poor attempt at trying that is making it hard for me to ever want to post on this place to see everything cluttered up.

I see potential in him to actually make this place active again but rushing to his defense every time he's criticized does not help.  We can turn that pent up energy and enthusiasm into something significantly more productive.

He seems to have no interest in actual interaction

Actually, I chat with petzbreeder now, so your statement is invalid!

name rater, who is still around)

How come there's always 401 nicknames to rate then?

[Shaymin]

i can't believe i had to read that with my own two eyes

so what are you doing to help him revitalise the forums then, aside from talking about him as if he wasn't here and saying kinda insensitive stuff like "He seems to have no interest in actual interaction" when hes explicitly stated he has Problems with social interaction???? maybe he is trying his best????????

i mean i had a big dumb carepost here but if you can't get the "dude is a bit Affected like we all kind of are here" inference and kinda get that this place is kind of a Crap Social Skills Nerd Safe Space in lieu of anything else and some people here have Certain Ways then its just gonna be me and u arguing and getting all het up over "My Forums Posting Purity!!!!!11!11" and im SO not interested in that argument, sorry

if you dont want to deal with him just ignore him?????? dont do the Fox News thing of reading his posts and topics and getting Mad about it if you got enough goddang stresses already. just ignore it. move on. maybe he'll get bored? maybe in a few months he'll make posts that please the hivemind? maybe he'll stumble on Posting Gold like CP's hank hill topic??????????? who knows.



p.s. also does anyone else remember their Forums Posting Careers at the tender age of 16? i dunno if we're doing the Awkward Embarassment Projection thing that i used to do when i took my disgruntlement out on nerds on here in the past which i sorely regret cos it helped no-one. i was in a bad space and took it out all wrongly and it was also cos of Issues i have with this place that weren't the fault of some of the users i hassled so soz again some of u

[sylar]

im sensing a bit of animosity in this thread

[Kpyna]

They also have feelings.

you don't think the name rater has feelings dang son hope he doesn't read the forums

... and (on topic? we're not very on topic at all) i mean muhed i see why you feel the way you do about all of this but like... if people don't like it, they won't reply, thus taking care of the problem of uninteresting threads

I meant I have feelings! (that statement was directed at Lord Raven)
