:: Forums- Why ??? ::

There's a cute little site called gaiaonline.com. You can dress up a little anime character, which is pretty much why I joined. But it's forum-based in it's communication. It's easy enough to avoid the public forums by joining Guilds or communities, but there are always, without fail, douchebags there as well

People in forums can really suck!

[spooky_sez]

Like, SO MUCH. You want to say something interesting but some people just love to shut people down, through the safety of a computer screen, of course.

Shes a local here in Seattle.
I love her stuff

[spooky_sez]

You're so lucky! Seattle seems to have a great scene for the goth and the unusual.

[spooky_sez]

Yeah, I just recently got back on there. Now I remember why I left!

He sounds like someone who hangs around in a shopping mall with his preppy friends picking on the kids that are smaller than him.

He reminds me a lot of my Uncle Michael actually.

[spooky_sez]

Uncle? I love how older adults tell us to be mature and then act like morons.

He just wanted to piss me off and pervoke me into a debate, I didn't want to get into one, especially not over a mothers day quote. He just likes to make everyone think that he is right, so his comment about having an "intelligent debate" really peeved me. His discussion would have been to make me see that I was wrong.

He is right about one thing though, if I didn't want him to comment I shouldn't have posted, or better yet, I shouldn't have added my own uncle as a friend on fb. *grumbles*

Men are knobbs.

if I didn't want him to comment I shouldn't have posted

Bullcrap! He's just being a tool for the sake of it. Just like that wanker in my little Goth forum who just wants to piss people off. But he doesn't say that, no, no. He says it's 'art' and he's 'just saying what he thinks'. Bullcrap.

You're always going to find rude people in online forums. It's as inevitable as death and taxes. Basically, the net's anonymity makes it too easy to be a jerk and get away with it.

As for Gaia Online, I use to fiddle around on that site. I liked the games and such but I got bored with it soon so I gave my account away. I'm kind of shocked you're on it though. I didn't think you were into such cute things.

[spooky_sez]

First off- your avatar is adorable.

Sometimes I hate the anonymity of the net. It's like it gives people licence to be a prick. My brothers keep insisting that the way to fix that is to have a screen that punches people in the face. I doubt many people would download an application that hits them, though.

If it's Japanese-looking, I love it. I have a Hello Kitty phone dangler, or whatever they're called. I'm very much into cute Japanese things, haha!
