QCDN: Being a Retired Member.

[Anttaru]

Life has many things to offer. To an exceedingly detailed and glorious life like my own. This site gradually gets less interesting to me. I'm too into my work, which is inches away from manifesting into a reality, out from my mental dreams and ideas, to my physical existence.

The boards here wreak of bad news, bringing young minds who attend here to go sour minded and wreak havoc on those who mourn on the recently departed, and also to those who have love for their entertainment, only to have it critisized. Provoking and accusations occur.

My now occasional being here, and taking the time to write this. I can feel the presence of an ooze, trying to pull me back down but it's dripping away quicker. I need to figure out what more I want from this place. 2 of the most retched people to respond to me here, have become a part of the moderation. One just expressed ignorant persona and pm'd me curse words twice, and the other would just flame bait and attack.

Posts within threads are taken, and woven into threads with FALSE OP's for all to see. For the victim of the false OP, they find themselves being degraded by more members who decide to join this pure focus, that becomes popular reality boards. Any fool would know that.

My survival in QCDN is critical. I see this retched place as it is now. and I think I'll either be silenced, or banned from witches and warmongers turned mods. My lack of interest to continue participating in QCDN is what i FEEL kept me safe from unjust power for some time, as it's been for a good while now. My foes showed no potential to change. And the random condition of the board, reflects who takes care of it. Like those threads with false OP's and given names to label ones train of thought. I see pages and pages of garbage on a many vile threads, and care not to read on, after already reading through pages of time waste, and displays of old known values failing to come into play. It's mostly the people, going with the flow, and falling into threads with false OP's. This is not how create the source for turmoil, this is talking a source and amplifying it. It's common for media to set balance.

Thank you.

I miss the old QCDN, a lot of my friends have been banned

I miss Colbwa too. He can go fuck himself, but I miss him.

 

[Tristam Green]

Let me assist you in moving this to the appropriate place.

This... is practically incomprehensible, and I'm fairly certain abuse of a thesaurus was involved.

Let me see if I can boil this down to the salient points... and comment on those points individually.

Paragraph 1: I'm too cool for this site.

Response 1: Well aren't you special? I love it when people denigrate how others spend their leisure time.

Paragraph 2: Members of the board are overly critical.

Response 2: Sometimes, yes. Most of the time, however, the people who find themselves on the receiving end of a scathing verbal attack deserve it.

Paragraph 3: I don't post much anymore, and I'm upset that some of the people I dislike have become moderators.

Response 3: See Response 2.

Paragraph 4: (This is a best-guess summary, this one is particularly strange) I am upset that moderators split threads, and bring attention to people who post something stupid, resulting in additional mockery.

Response 4: See Response 2, again.

Paragraph 5: I feel QCDN is overmoderated, and that by saying so I will be banned or harassed. I feel my lack of posting has kept me "under the radar", so to speak, of the people who dislike me. I feel that many threads are a waste of time, and many others simply abusive. (I can't adequately interpret the rest. Something about fake posts causing turmoil? It seems to tie back into the complaint about splitting threads, but seems to go off onto a weird conspiracy theory angle.)

Response 5: Well, the level of moderation is something that will always be debated. Personally, I'm satisfied with what currently exists, for the most part. Yes, many threads are a waste of time. Don't read them. Many threads on the flameboard are abusive to people. Don't read them. If there's something in a thread that you don't like, don't read it.

Ultimately, if you find yourself in a situation where you don't like what the site has become (even though it's really no different from what it's ever been), and it seems unlikely to change, move on.

Aye, with bad spelling and poor grammar.

 

[Miros]

I don't get what the FALSE OP thing is. Can anyone catch me up with that? >.o

 

[Tristam Green]

He's referring to where when we split a thread and create a new thread, it creates the new child thread from the first post split off from the original.

Case-in-point: Anttaru sticks some flaming of Arctyrael, accusing him of being my puppet Admin, into a thread about something entirely different. Arc splits the thread, thus generating a new thread that for all intents and purposes, was started by Anttaru in the first place.

Or, where Eilistrae starts bringing up allegations of Michael Jackson's pedophilia in a "Rest in Peace" thread, and it gets split, thus creating a child thread for all intents and purposes started by Eilistrae.

My take on it? Get the fuck over yourself, Anttaru. If you're better than everyone else, take a powder and go enjoy your awesome life while afk banging hot chix.

 

[Miros]

Oh I see. Well sometimes splitting a thread is for the greater good. Most people were upset when a post would just be locked for being so off topic and they'd request that the mods split the thread instead of just lock it. I think it's a good idea personally.

Who is the other person on staff who you dislike though Ant? I know TG is one and if arc is the other well...he's not been red for a lil bit.

 

[Tristam Green]

I'm just gonna toss out there that my previous reply will be one of few in this thread, because I've already said my piece about Anttaru publicly and privately, and I considered the matter between him and me resolved, for my part. I can't say anything about him I either haven't said already or without bias, unless I am directly addressed by him.

Cool? Cool.

 

[Makelith]

Must be a rude awakening for him to know that Arc isn't Red anymore, and even before that was pretty much checked out because he finished school and got a real job.

As far as you not liking the moderation, get over it. Familiarize yourself with the rules if you stay. If you plan on leaving, be my guest. You won't be the first person that has said you won't be visiting QCDN because I won't let you post whatever you want wherever you want. If you plan on being a pain for the sole purpose of trying to get banned, tell me now, and i'll save us a lot of time and effort.

That said, feel free to PM me. I haven't turned anyone away before. You'll get the same level of respect back that you give to me.

 

[Anttaru]

Not really. I found a few old roaches and decided to roll them and smoke it, then I was inspired to free style what was on my mind about this place.

I never mentioned Arc, nor was i really referring to what he's done with me before, although that is another example. I'm long past that thread Arc made for me. In my perspective (and this is true), Arc was caught up with someone i felt was controlling him. At one point i detected admiration from Arc. This was before he was being used to end out of bound flame wars in favor of his friend. The attacker, against me. This lead me to label Arc as a puppet. Rude as it may be, I mentioned that in the flame board.

I don't dislike Arc, and I admit to my aggression. It's just that I would have rather not see him being used by his powerless friend to lay infractions against me and turn a blind eye towards his friend breaking rules himself. I hope that clarifies the fact that I was not referring to that time with Arc, and for more clarity, I only speak of Arc now cause I see his name being used as a type of scape goat.

I was referring to that MJ hate thread. It's comprised on the same people from the original thread on the most part. The "MJ Good Riddance" thread is pure garbage. It's inefficient, and the more threads like that we have, the more clutter we'll see on the boards, and more flame baiting will occur.

This thread was intended to be in Reality sinks in, I mentioned no names. I wanted to point out how the boards isn't what it use to be, and what changes take place.

Must be a rude awakening for him to know that Arc isn't Red anymore, and even before that was pretty much checked out because he finished school and got a real job.

That's good for Arc. I haven't any grudges against him. Maybe i was too rough on him that time ? I would encourage anyone not to believe Arc is on my bad side. He openly admitted his reaction to what i said was him pulling a douche move. I honor that, regardless how i was forced to elaborate on what I found between him and his buddy, in that thread.

As far as you not liking the moderation, get over it. Familiarize yourself with the rules if you stay. If you plan on leaving, be my guest. You won't be the first person that has said you won't be visiting QCDN because I won't let you post whatever you want wherever you want. If you plan on being a pain for the sole purpose of trying to get banned, tell me now, and i'll save us a lot of time and effort.

I mentioned that 2 people who mistreated me and even broke rules doing so in some cases, had become part of the moderation. Of coarse there is a bad taste in my mouth about that. That is just another attribute that has me participating less. That doesn't mean Makeith too. I won't blame you for not recognizing were I'm coming from, as there were whinny members in the past who vowed not to return as though anyone gave a damn about them. As for me, I'm not safe, cause I do speak up when I disagree with some of the actions I see here. This doesn't mean I'm trying to be a pest.

That said, feel free to PM me. I haven't turned anyone away before. You'll get the same level of respect back that you give to me.

I don't see the need to PM you. From the looks of things your already eratated with me. I don't recall ever mistreating you. At one point I was looking forward to some Soul Calibur with you. I have zero motivation to make enemies with anyone, so why would I further jeopardize the opportunity to bust my Kris Naga over your skull ?

I had made a thread about Michael Jackson which had a few trolling posts in it like "good riddance". I can totally understand why they split it and I am greatful for it. That way the people who don't want to read others being completely disrespectful about someone who just died can continue to read the thread that isn't full of mockery and hear-say.

shut the fuck up

 

[Xalioniaf]

I'm nineteen years old and what is this pretentious bullshit?
Does this mean we'll be seeing more of your 3D modeling work and more conspiracy bullshit? I thoroughly enjoy both for very different reasons.

 

[Hexx]

shut the fuck up

*insert TG's avatar here*

But I doubly agree, STFU and GTFO

WHAT!?

hmmm nope, even being stoned off your ass isn't a valid excuse for sounding like that. where those roaches sitting in a pool of drain cleaner before you smoked em?

 

[Anttaru]

Here's something for you to think about.

Why is it, when someone sincerely says something along the lines of.... "Life sucks, i have to deal with this and that and everything I wish for it is going down the drain and I'm very depressed."....

People feel for that person then offer support and even the negative leave them alone ?

Of coarse that's not a bad thing. But when someone is proud and boasts a positive attitude toward life. They end up sounding conceited ?

I sound like this cause I'm more than pleased with how my life is, and I reached a point where my ultimate success is inevitable. QCDN is one of those details in life I don't take for granted and the focus of my post was about QCDN.

I explained why i find QCDN less appealing these days, and it has less to do with me being glad I'm me, and not some of these pricks that like to provoke others against the rules here.

My beliefs are often ridiculed here. Notably I spoke about them on 1 occasion. Yet I have them thrown in my face when someone hasn't anything better to say when they feel the need to get on my case.

To constantly ridicule ones belief is a type of harassment. In QCDN, this type of behavior is what they call flame baiting. This must be the FIRST time out of many I had the Mayans thrown at me in the flame board. It always happens against the rules OUTSIDE of the flame board, and my retaliation landed me infractions, and sometimes I would be the only one receiving a penalty. That is only 1 reason out of many I'm losing interest in this place.

This thread was originally made in the "Reality sinks in" section. By no means did I have any intention other than to share my point of view regarding QCDN with honest reasoning.

I'm against the "MJ Good Riddance" thread for a few reasons. One of them is, the mod framed the one who started saying what those who mourn didn't want to hear, also used a pretty harsh title for this point in time, (Jackson wasn't even buried yet) that's a pretty demented statement for someone to carry even for someone who is glad MJ is gone. Another reason is, it should be placed in the flame board as it is not right now.

As for me and this post. I was hoping to see some more humane members I can connect with. I see 2 or 3 decent feedback so far, plus I was offered a permanent ban.

What I wrote has been called "incomprehensible" and he was sure I used a "thesaurus". I don't know if i should be flattered, or insulted. But one thing is for sure, that is a very irrational thing to assume regarding those 2 attributes. I'm no editor, but I'm sure I spelled everything correctly, with one typo, so to anyone willing to follow the belief what i write is really a poor format. It would be best to look into it yourself. So long as what I write is understandable is what matters to me. And apparently most people do understand. They just take it the wrong way.

So yes Thelona. My life really is glorious with many details. Look at what I had to cope with in QCDN in the past, and now. In board terms, I can honestly say 3 of my trolls showed up. And some complete strangers telling me to STFU, all within 2 pages. Although it's quite redundant but not totally boring, I would have preferred kindness. That aside, one who knows me in person and knows of my progress, they would ask me why do i even bother with a site like this ?

 

[Halifirien]

This must be the FIRST time out of many I had the Mayans thrown at me in the flame board.

I apologize for that. Like a few others, I thought it was an auto-generated "QCDN sucks" post and wanted to tweak you a little. Realizing you're serious, my comment just makes me look like an asshole. That's not one of the notes I want you to go out on.

 

[Raesvelg]

I'll reiterate a few key points.

First off, your post was largely incomprehensible. Either English is not your first language, or you were simply never taught how to communicate properly, but in either case, what you wrote was, for lack of a better word, awkward. Stilted, forced, with words thrown in obviously more for regard to their complexity rather than their appropriateness. The grammar was atrocious, the parsing was pathetic, and in general it lurched along in a near-painful fashion.

In short, as a means of communicating your ideas, the post was a miserable failure, in no small part because you seemed to want it to look "significant". If you lack sufficient mastery of the language to convey your message with the sort of poetic lyricism you seek; simpler, more prosaic prose is best.

Secondly, in regards to your complaint that a proud stance garners contempt... You are entirely incorrect. What garners contempt is, rather, the assumption of a mantle of superiority, particularly in an anonymous medium such as an internet forum. Use of the word "glorious" was perhaps ill-advised, and while "exceedingly detailed" is functionally nonsense in context, it certainly sounds pretentious enough.

Third, the stated complaint about the splitting of the Michael Jackson thread was, frankly, a waste of time. The two sides agreed that the split was a wise decision, more or less, and I don't recall anyone in particular complaining about that split. If you really wanted to convey a sense of injustice, you'd have been better served to invest the effort to find a more egregious example of "mod abuse".

And finally, conspiracy theories will deservedly attract ridicule. Get used to it.
