BWToth 0 Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I just want an explaination (one backed by logical thought and arguments rather than petty immature putdowns) for why people are so sarcastic and close-minded in these forums, given that these types of attitudes prove to be extremely common.

ShardCark 0 Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 46 is now called "Happy Hour." 'Cause from 4 to 6 it's Happy Hour.22 is sometimes referred to as AFLAC, but I'm gonna take it one step further. When you flop a set with it, it becomes the "Glenn Chervin.""It's 9 o'clock on a Saturday..."My name for 22 is......Anal Warts. I figure since 33 is Crabs, which would you rather have, crabs or anal warts? Link to post Share on other sites

FatBurger 0 Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 This is fun.I dont' know what those acronyms mean.You appear to be new to internet forums, so let me write you a simple guide.1. Find a forum with a topic you like.2. Regsiter immediately to secure the lowest possible user ID.3. Read and don't post for as long as it takes you to learn the culture.4. Learn to use the search feature.5. Begin posting, being careful to not make ANY new threads, or posts that disagree with the general public.6. When finally comfortable with the forum, slowly begin to be more sarcastic and mean (if desired). When it appears people have started to dislike you, back off.Things to learn in step 3:Who are the most loved people? Don't disagree with them!Who are the most hated people? Join in when they're flamed!What threads have been discussed into the ground? Don't repost them!What unique thing can you contribute? Do so!Who are the most respected people? Don't disagree with them either!What kind of humor does the forum enjoy? Do you possess it? Act accordingly! Link to post Share on other sites
XX44466XX 0 Posted June 22, 2006 Author Share Posted June 22, 2006 Did you really think a thread titled "Hand Nicknames" was gonna be super-serious and revolve around ethics and intellectual deduction and require you to use all 14 of your brain cells and all 3 months of your poker knowledge combined?

It is basically Darwin's theory in action. If you can't take the heat and are that hurt then I suggest you try to stop living casue it will happen regardless of where you are.Just simply get over it.

Maybe I should start a new thread about this topic in general.Its merely intriguing to see how defensive and ignorant the majority of the people who post in ALL forums are. And as I assumed my origial reply got lots of feeback. Not surprisingly none of the feedback was very worthwhile.I'm beginning to think their is a direct correlation to the level of thought put into these forums and the level of thought put into people's play at the poker tables.

But if I don't I should not post anything ever again?Furthermore, why have the comments I've made caused everyone to blow up at me? Have I struck a nerve?

You are right I used the search function and all it did was show me topics about hand names but NONE had near the sparkling wit and content that YOUR thread has. You are special and truely enlightened. Please make more threads now. Don't listen to any of the people that try and guide you down the path that you are much to knowledgeable about to listen to.

People were giving you hints along the way, you just wanted to "show em whose boss" and then you didn't like the results. You kept asking for "Intelligent responses" over and over. People weren't direct in their answers but they gave you the answers. You just pushed forward...let me try and show them I am cool....keep it up. So yes, you asked for it and got it. Well done. If you want to match wits with the forum regulars, be my guest. People were just having a little fun and you took it personal. This forum isn't unique. In fact it's alot less insulting than others. For a real treat go to Neverwin's forum, they'll rip you a knew one so fast you'll never forget it.It's when you kept asking the same question in the intentionally insulting manner that you are asking it, yet you don't read the answer you were given. You aren't unique, you got treated the same as other people who act like they are the new forum police. You knew excatly what you were doing and why you were doing it so your "I just asked a simple question" ACT isn't valid or truthfull.Moving on....Edit: Merc, I've never had a problem with your posts. I don't think I was out of line with this person. They new excatly what they were doing, others tried to tell him (yes, it was sarcastic but it was there). And he still wants to play like he doesn't understand and complains that people don't give him any information. It's just a cover. As I said...I am done with this thread. Moving on....

I truly did as a simple question, WHY ARE PEOPLE MEAN TO ALL OTHER PEOPLE? That is a direct question, why the answers were given in the form of 'hints' or 'clues' doesn't make any sense. And in all honestly I didn't pick up on these hints and clues so if you would please explain what they were i would really like to know.In no way was trying to show anyone that I am cool. I don't find it necessary to find self worth through other people's approval, particularly approval in an online message board. I was just reading through the first posts from this thread, before i got it off track, and was annoyed by what I was reading and decided to respond.Obviously the fact that this has set off such a chain reaction of responses, or more often than not rebukes of my original sentiment is simply proving my point more and more.Not true.

I disagree with these attitudes and stating that in my post.That is what I was doing and why I was doing it.Feel free to continue to respond. Link to post Share on other sites
