Oh I'm so sorry. I didn't know that all threads had to meet your approval and serve a purpose that is suitable to your wants and needs.


are you seriously trying to be an ass? all i said was this thread is not contributing to the ARG at all.

In you're most recent posts, you have acted extremely rude and immature to the posters on this website.

It's getting to the point that i laugh at everything you post on this website because honestly your post are either A) dont make sense B) are irrelevant C) extremely rude or whinning that someone is bashing on you. Rolling Eyes

In the beginning you were a good poster and i hope you decide to go back to that and stop being an ass all the time.

Ok im done ranting ( which is what this thread should be label as) but i havent said anything about hmg's attitude because i didnt want to be a dick but after reading this thread i had to say something.


It's hard to fly like an eagle when surrounded by turkeys.

You say that in the beginning I was a good poster.
What changed that, I wonder? What would cause me to go from being a "good poster" to being "an ass", as you say.


What causes a problem, as Dust To Dust previously tried to explain, is that many (not all) of you guys are intentionally trying to be confrontational, and purposefully trying to provoke. I never have a problem simply because someone may have a different opinion about something. Where I have a problem is when it turns from being a discussion about a topic to a bash fest of the individual who gave the opinion. I don't like it when it is done to me and I don't like it when it is done to others - such as what you guys, like wolves, did to Dust to Dust for example.

What (most) of you guys do is badger and harrass and instigate and provoke someone into confrontation until they are so pissed off at you that they blow up, and then you play as though they are the childish troublemakers and you are the innocent and mature ones. And then you keep provoking them by mocking and belittling them for their defense. And the more they defend, the more you belittle, while still claiming to be the mature one. And that is a big deal because you are creating a hostile environment for those who came here to have fun and discuss the subject. No one is going to discuss ONLY what you want to talk about and no one is going to say ONLY what you want to hear. Throughout this board I've watched all of you bash person after person for their views on something simply because YOU disagree with it or because YOU think an issue is resolved. Well here's a news flash for all of you: NOTHING has been resolved because NO ONE has watched the damn movie yet. YOUR view is NOT the final say. YOUR opinion is not fact. And neither is mine. So everyone needs to get off their high horse.


I think with that statement you just explained some of you posts; harrassing and provoking.

When did i ever provoke you? My original statement was that i dont see a point in this thread and to correct me if im wrong.

You then took the time to say "oh im sorry. I didnt know all threads had to meet your approval". how is that not provoking me to an arguement?

If you look at everything i have ever posted on this website, you will see that i have never "bashed" or "instigated" anyone. So your statement about me and "most" people on this website is way wrong.

I really think that you should read some of your post and compare it to your statement that you wrote above and you'll see that you just described yourself.

With that being said, I'm going back to the threads that actually have something to do with this movie and not the proper definitions of the word spam or spamming.

Dust to Dust couldn't take 5 minutes of his time to quickly skim through the first page or read the rules quickly. It was his own fault and was his neglect. I didn't give him BS on his first topic, i understood everyone could make a mistake.

His second one, I acted sarcastic. The point was that after seeing how his first thread went, he didn't both to think or make any changes.

His third topic was proof to me he was spamming on purpose. You do not make the same mistake so many times, not read any rules or anything on the first or second page, he didn't even search, or do anything of the sorts.

It was his own neglect that led to him being flamed. And as for his last few topics, they are just proof he was a troll.

And lastly, he made the retarted thread just to troll around. He faked everything. He was a troll all along. Remember Colby Rook defending himself even though he was obviously guilty? Well why not, only makes you look innocent and like you're sincere.

If you look at his attitude and the clues, he's a poor example to use in a situation as such.

 What Up B*tches
Its time to get back on track...

As usual, I'll chime in with my two cents towards the later section of another retarTed thread (at least I hope this is almost over). My biggest problem is that this hmghosthoost person has a decorated 157 posts of complete ranting, irrelevant, drama related, unnecessary bologna such as this thread he has started. I'm usually one who tries to ignore the annoyances of those who don't care as much as myself or others about actually playing along with this arg. This use to be about coming together to solve the next puzzle and move forward within the game. Now its become diluted in drama and unnecessary bickering. I don't know if this is due to a lack of progression or the fact that there has been a ton of newbies who have forced us to backtrack. Either way, its time to get back on track and reaffirm our goals here.

Don't let this forum burn in the flames of dramatic bickering, we're better than that...

Two options here:

Your choice! Very Happy

I vote for #2! That'd be entertaining!
Could you try to act it out as a speculation of how the monster attacks?

There's a wonderful little riddle:
Q: How do you get out of a hole?
A: Stop digging!

A little of both I would assume. Its probably more so that we just haven't been given anything juicy in over a week right after a rather quick jolt of new schwag. Once JJ leaves us hanging a little we turn on each other like Lord of the Flies. Its happened before and it will happen again. I say we bump some old humor threads when we get bored instead next time Razz

ps. please do not PM me to tell me to let threads like this die. Very Happy

hey hmghosthoost.... I understand where you're coming from and all, dont agree with supporting DD, but you've got your opinion and thats koolios Very Happy .

But might I suggest that creating this thread wasnt such a good idea? (for you)... creating threads such as this that in general conflict with members of the community (according to your post in the introductions) was what got you kicked off the other forums, neh? Oh well... its up to you... not baggin you, just suggesting.

This is getting stupid. I'm sick of us fighting among each other etc. etc. etc. and I know I've contributed to it and whatever but I'm a bit fed up with it all. I'm gonna head back on over to thefuselage.com.... ciao to all! (not permanently)

What comes around goes around... and it' gonna come around to you, ScarpeGroose! Tampering with the text of someone's words is about the biggest offense anyone could commit and you are extremely lucky that you aren't standing here in person. But you will get it in the end. There are other ways of dealing with people like you besides the complaint department.
