The Shrine

<div style='font: italic bold 14pt ; text-align: center; '>Wll I'm out. goodbye people. I think I'm going the way of wolfsamurai</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Seeker's chasing you off?! No seriously. Nobody's harrassed you on a daily basis, what the deal is?</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Well, we're not very nice here.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>You'll be back, you can't escape</div>

<div style='font: ; text-align: left; '>Ain't that the truth. Heck, I've considered doing the same thing.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Go look at his recent conversations in Gamethought and Sports and I think you'll see who his reason is.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "arial narrow"; text-align: left; padding: 0% 5% 0% 5%; '>You won't last a week.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>Bastard! I'll curse your name for all eternity! Call me!</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Personally that's the reason I DO come here. At least people here aren't wishy washy no brainers. I like people with strong opinions, even if they differ from mine.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Ok, in Wolf's case, Seeker attacked him on each and every single one of his posts. Don's just voicing his opinion, that's hardly reason to bitch up and leave the shrine. Besides Derith was the one running around posting about Fate in every thread....</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>I HIGHLY doubt Don's intentionally trying to make Derith lose his mind.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "arial narrow"; text-align: left; padding: 0% 5% 0% 5%; '>It would be wicked if he was.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I said HIS reason, not THE reason. I'm not condemning Don for doing anything "wrong," just guessing at Derith's motivation.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I said HIS reason, not THE reason. I wasn't blaming anybody for anything, just guessing at Derith's motivation.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>I wish Wolf would come back. He can take my place when I leave.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Why take it so personally?</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>You were the one who was always on Don's case posting about some game every single time he made a post in any forum. He turned around and verbally chopped your nuts off and dressed you like a three year old girl, and the best you can do is call him an asshole and run away. I can't say I'll miss you, seriously, you're fucked in the head, you take things WAAAAY tto personally =P

Wofsamurai was one who always bragged about his "intellect" how he used words to attack people in school because he was physically unable to fight or something like that (A statement that would later come back bitte him in the ass). He also didn't like me because of my opinions on videogames, and as a result he would delete all of my posts no matter what in the forum that he modded. Now I didn't like that, so I tested his "intellect" and as it turned out, he was nothing more than just a sad over-dramatic little girl who always wanted her way or she'd take a temper tantrum and delete posts; in other words, I verbally bitchslapped him day after day, whenever he posted in Ruminations or Gamethought. He deserved it, and I had nothing better to do anyways while I was waiting for stuff to load with my 56K modem.

As the story goes, I got banned because Wolfsamurai practically begged for it. I told Sine my story, he said he didn't believe in permanently banning anyone anyways (unless he moved the board, then he bans everyone =P). I came back, didn't say a word to Wolfsamurai or make any reference, just acted like a happy Seeker putting smiley faces in all my posts, and it drove him insane, he's the type that didn't like to see people happy, he couldn't take it, and he quit =P

Now you watch hockey, we have a little song for people like you: Na-na-na-na, Na-na-na-na, hey-hey, goodbye!</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Sine's been trying to get rid of you for years. :P You're not going anywhere.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Sure it was, he was on Don's back, Don turned around and gave him a swift kick to the nuts.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>you'll just end up lurking for a few years. Don't compare yourself to Wolf, he was an emotionally unstable little boy...I'll never forget the time he threw a tantrum because we played a WC3 map he didn't like</div>

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>for once...I have to agree with you. On Wolf that is, I'm not taking a stand on Derith's issues, but whatever it is it isn't worth running away like a little girl</div>

<div style='font: italic bold 14pt ; text-align: center; '>I just thought I'm come back to clarify why and it's a damn good reason. I've been debating on leaving for weeks now because of the fact that this isn't a community anymore. It's a 24/7 bitchfest. It used to be that this place was somewhere I could come with problems. Now when people post their problems a bunch of poeple go out of their way to make ass hole comments. Almost all of you have done shit like that recently. Erics recent post about losing his girl made a good example of this. Hell just look at things. In almost every post at least one porson comes out with some fucking ass hole comment. I mean shit G-man and seek I don't care about, their always ass holes and can get away with that because it's always been that way. And Don has always neem a pompous ass in gamethought. but that's not the problem. I'm leaving because all of you are doing it now. hell even I;ve started to get pissy because you can't post a god damn thing without someone calling you a moron. Yeah when someone calls me a moron the first thing I do is respond with an ass hole comment of my own. I'm sorry I've just begun to hate this place and really have for the last while. I have an urge to bitchslap most of you the way all of you act. And hell yes I've turned into an ass holke. but if you look outside of that one night of mocking don It's been me responding to someone else being a fucking ass hole. Maybe comparing it to samurai isn't right because it's not because of the way you guys respond to me. It's the way you treat each other. All of you are fucking ass holes to each other and it pisses me off. Yeah you can have strong opinions. Like gray that is one of the things I loved about this place the fact that everyone had strong opionions and shared them. But it used to be a more respectful way of sharing. not being a complete fucking ass hole to anyone who doesn't agree with you. Yeah that's right I'm leaving and it isn't anything people did to me. I reiterate the main point again. it's because of the way you treat each other.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt "Cooper Black"; text-align: left; '>I've used that term in real life conversation before and when people ask who they are, they cant believe it when i say i have this community where i have known people for around 10 years and never seen any of them in the flesh.

This place is great, the people are great and its a shame you have to blame us because you feel like you are an a-hole now.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>No kidding, ppl look at me like I've sprouted a 2nd head when I talk about these 'friends' I have on a msg board.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Bah even friends bitch at each other now and then. Like I said I doubt anybody intentionally tries to hurt anybody here. you know save G-man x Sine, Wolfie x Seeker, etc.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>I dunno...I've always known better than to post serious problems here, and maybe some of us ehre have turned too vile, but leaving won't make you feel any better</div>

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>And I mean comeon, we're not all bad-- Lox just gave away Gmail accounts :)</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>He's like a troll that everybody's gotten used to.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>I didn't consider the thread with Eric to be a "bitchfest". It was a geniune attempt to get answers and advice from a situation, which is a majority of the point of posting a problem. We're like old siblings here: we bitch at each other a lot, but we will support each other for serious issues.</div>

<div style='font: ; text-align: left; '>But everyone likes me already. :)</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>I think Don was trying to be funny. That superior intelligence quote was actually good.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Whoever said a swift kick to the nuts wasn't funny? =P</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Wolf ain't ever comin' back, I promise you that....so you'll just have to stay here well into your 100's. No retiring at 95 for you :-)</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "arial narrow"; text-align: left; padding: 0% 5% 0% 5%; '>Dumbass! You smell!</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "Stylus BT"; text-align: left; '>You guys need some new blood. Do like a membership drive or something.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>That's where networking comes into play</div>

<div style='font: 9pt "copperplate gothic light"; text-align: left; '>I know the feeling. I lurk more than post these days, but I still consider this a community, and everyone here my friends.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>You keep calling me a troll when in fact you're worse than I am. And that lie you said about me being a troll from day one, you don't remember your religious bashing a few years back. It was none stop from you.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Me neither. I thought that was a downright civil conversation, with everyone offering unilateral support to Eric - unless, of course, I come off differently than I think I do. (Would appreciate someone telling me if I do.)</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>In fact, overall, I find the Shrine to be a much less rowdy place than it used to be back when we were all teenagers =P</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>That's not what I had in mind.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>No kidding, remember way back when Ruminations was the biggest board? Eccch. Religious flamewars, anyone?</div>
