Well, I'm not posting anymore, but don't call me a hypocrite. I only logged back in at my school for one reason- to reply to this post.
Look what this has come to. First, it was me. I left. People called me stupid. People instant messaged be saying "you realize that no one cares if you leave the forums, right?" That didn't faze me at all, except for when I second-guessed myself, my decisions, my mind. I figured that things would get better, and I was being stupid by running away. After I read this post, I now realize that I am not. If I was wrong; why would Vermain also leave?
Things have got to be done. I, not being a member of this forum anymore, have no say in what goes on. You do not have to care or even understand what I'm saying; but this needs to end.
Nearly 50% of the people who post at these boards are either extremely young or extremely stupid. Take your pick. Vermain is right, there is a lack of intelligence at these forums.
There is bickering, fighting, constant spamming, and full frontal stupidity. People like Kaimetsu say and think that they are smart, but truly, they are stupider than people like PEEKER who swear excessively.
The whole "TwiZtid is being unbanned" thing disgusts me. What is Stefan doing this for, his money? Doesn't he realize that people will not renew their accounts if people like TwiZtid continue to ruin Graal2001?
I don't know. I'll never know.
Yes, I'm naive, and yes, I am aggressive by nature. I tend to be the instigator and start nearly half of the flamewars that go on. By leaving, I hope to help make this community better. No one needs a person like me hanging around, right?
Vermain, you should stay. You are one of the only intelligent people left at the board. You can help shape this place for the future. If you were made moderator, you would truly be good.
The intelligent people are leaving one by one. Starting with Vermain. Soon, there will only be stupid people left. I know I am right. I have been around many forums in the past, many which have crumbled because of reasons similar to this.
Things won't get better... unless you try to make a change. Don't delete posts for the sake of deleting them. Be more lenient with spam. Don't close argument threads until EVERYONE IN THE ARGUMENT HAS SAID THEIR LAST WORDS. Using that technique, everyone is happy. I have seen it happen on other forums.
The period is now over, so I best be on my way.
I hope each and every one of you good luck for the future.
