Post Be it hereby noted

I am not a representative for Infopop Inc. When I post here I do so as myself, Chris Schear, who refers to themself with the nickname "The Wraith". My opinions are my own. They do not reflect the opinions of anyone else.

Over the years I have been associated with Infopop Inc. it is not uncommon someone e-mails them and complains. I'm used to it. They're used to it. If this message has informed you to the point to which you might have previously considered writing such a statment and have reconsidered...

...good.

"Pissing more people off, Wraith? "

We have more exciting things to discuss in the private Infopop boards than that. The occassional "Looks like Wraith upset some more warez sites" is common place. (I'm not saying asylumnation.com is a warez site) However, you should note anything I do, say, or think has no bearing on my relationship with Infopop Inc.

They will tell you this and I am telling you this, lest be there any confusion.

Ahhhh, I see. Yes, I would imagine you do get a few complaints filed against you.
Well, just to help you out and keep anyone from being confused, I gave you a MUCH more appropriate title.
I have found your referencing the Stileproject to be absolutely hilarious as you are the epitamy of the typical SPFer who we were ever so happy to leave behind and it is quite ironic that you came here from there.

Don't argue with me.

Very appropriate Wonderaz. I personally think he needs less compassion points as well. Not to mention he seems to be trying to crack jokes here and there. Obviously they are less than funny. In light of this I do believe he needs negitive humor points as well. Just a couple of suggestions.

Wow, it's just like being back in high school. Who are the "in" crowd? What cliches do I need to be made aware of? Are the really cool kids going to show up soon? Hmm...popularity contests, categories, titles, rating systems. Let's see, where have I seen this before...

Oh yea, back to that high school thing again. I love being surrounded by so many grown-ups.

Thumbs down

Ultimately you disliked the system in the first place because you were a first class loser.

You had your chance, perhaps to fit into a culture which embraces fuck-ups, and rates them on the you-are-so-fucked-up scale, amongst other things. When it comes down to it, if you had fitted in you wouldn’t be complaining. I’m not saying you should go, far from it, this place needs a Gary Coleman. Just don’t come here bitching about how shit it is, and how it reminds you of your fucked up high school life.

Tip #1: If you don’t like it how it is run, leave.

In keeping with the (new) Asylum tradition of going totally off the subject...

Check again VKL, those are negative compassion points

I would sooner stick aids infected toothpicks through my eyelids and twist them up really well than be caught dead in an IRC channel. You think I dislike rampant message board posts? The immature teens and pre-teens, filled with all their adolescent angst, and the accompanying arrogance to which they feel they are "3ll37" having successfully downloaded, installed, and used mIRC is well beyond my limits of toleration.

I have no patience for script-kiddies, 12 year old boys who'd rather pretend to be girls, people who think "cybersex" is actually a form of sex, or the countless "characters" who think/act/behave as though the Internet isn't "real life". There are far too many people in the world who think they can do/say anything they want in complete ignorance just because they can't be strangled on the other side of their monitor. ...and they all live in IRC channels. They safely post all sorts of jibberish they wouldn't have the inclination to say if they weren't "safely" tucked in their parents basement.

I can't stand the type.

The majority of people here are adults, granted not all of them act it, but who cares. There are a few of us here who are young, but I think we add to the broad assortment of people we have here.
"this is what I have been talking about"
I have commented a few times in threads like this that I dont understand why people have to come and say they hate this place why not just ignore us? obviously we hold some interest to you if you are sticking around. Why not sit back and enjoy the people here we are capable of intelligent conversation.
I think you should come to chat and give a few of us a chance.

But I don't use Mirc? And I'm not a script kiddie?? And I don't live with my parents??? And I know the difference between real life and IRC????


Why do you confuse me so Wraith.

I never said I "hated" this place, I have merely pointed out aspects to it which annoy me.

Spooky, sorry to have confused you. I combined topics from multiple posts concerning that paragraph so it's quite understandable you "got lost". I don't pressume to think everyone reads what I have to say.

I have no idea who wilfreak is.
