Just a quick question. Haven't seen a peep from him since I got back. Any of you folks see him on at all lately?

If it still comes down to it, I've got the jump from the top of my town's radio tower. Nothing like a little height to put things in perspective.

I don't care. The people in the government who live hundreds, if not thousands of miles away from me sit in their congress meetings and argue like children. They call the shots and make the rules. But they aren't the ones who wake up every morning with a life to build. They aren't the ones who wake up, go outside, and do physical work every day. I am.
The point is, they can say and shout and scream all these things, make all these rules and regulations, and it doesn't matter. It doesn't help me complete my jobs. It doesn't help me in my life. They are as useless to me as my opinion on the world is to them. No, I don't have their political power. But in most regards, neither do they. But out here they have no real power.
So, I will continue to do what I always do. Do my thing, and observe the world. Some things should be different about the world. But I can't change that. And the politicians won't anyway. Unless a politician shows up to help me haul firewood, then they're useless and pointless to me, not worth my time or my thoughts. And in some way, I have more power than they do to shape my own little corner of the world.

Honestly, the only vibe I get from these is dark souls. Like I could see more than half of this shit in a dark souls/demon souls game.
But I can see his thoughts in those. Some good symbolism.

I don't even call these folks feminists. Because they're not. They're just stupid people. Doing what stupid people do. Giving a bad name to the genuine people out there.

I am tired. And a wee bit concerned.
What about buddy?
Mein lungs hurt. And I can't catch my breath. Very, very short of breath at the moment. Can't tell if it's from leftover infection, or the fact that I react rather badly to certain types of air. It doesn't feel damp. But it's not dry either. Can't pin it down.
Should probably take it easy for a bit :3
Don't want to stress it too much.
I'm sitting down and it feels like I just tugged around a 200 pound cast iron stove up a two story set of stairs. I am not pleased.

 You see this stupid fucking cunt up here? Not only are they tanks, but they don't give two shits about invincibility frames, or attack frames at all. From the front, they snap their jaws and your health just dissappears. You don't even get stunned. Your health just goes away into thin air, even if you roll. Attack them from the side? They swipe their legs and can two shot you in the span of a second while you're wearing full havels fully upgraded on only new game +. These things are the very definition of stupid. And I want to shoot myself every time one of these mother fuckers blocks my path.

I've been a negative ass to a lot of people lately about what and who they are, for things I truly don't care about to just get a rise out of them. Thank you for creating this thread and making me realize how I've been acting. Great words as always my friend.
And suddenly, out of the shadows, you show up. And find this hanging around four pages down. Strange world. Anywho, good to know my words don't fall on deaf ears.
I actually got on here to read your returning thread with you and Quiets picture because I couldn't finish reading it earlier. Then I found this!
Good timing, I s'pose.

Watch out for that sneaky respitory infection!
Nothing much. Take things slow. Finish stories. Shake the rust off my drawing hand.

I doubt it. On the scale of things, the universe is still young. The players on the board are still in the early game. It may be possible, but the likelyhood and chances of having
A) A race that can travel the space between stars with ease
and
B) Have them bump into our little corner of space
Are astronomically low. Even the signals we've been broadcasting ever since we've discovered radio waves haven't traveled very far on the scale of things.

But the rules need to be very clearly defined, and very clearly enforced if a system like this went up. Because it's unforgiving.
This is what I'm saying though, the rules shouldn't have to be that clearly defined if we're such a close community. People shouldn't be veering so close so that they have to have it spelled out for them when they cross the line.
I mean jesus frack, I know it's the internet, but grow the frack up and just be nice. No, you don't even have to be nice. Just be considerate and don't fling shit.
This is exactly my point. "Grow the frack up and just be nice". You can't turn the community into good people through rules.. If someone has to go look up a rule to see if they're about to break it then I don't think they belong here anyway.
It should just be something like "don't be a dickhead" and then leave it to the mods opinions.
How about "Be considerate." Like the stance the countries of the world take on nukes. "I won't fire mine if you don't fire yours."

Of course I don't believe it. That's why I wrote "these people believe free speech means they can say what they like without backlash" as if it were some sort of diplomatic immunity.
I understand what you're trying to say, but these people will only evaluate things even further if we ignore them. Because it's not like they do it for us, they do the same shit every thread themselves.
Either punishments get harsher because of a few people, or we try to talk some sense into them.
But they aren't going to listen to sense. They have no reason to. Nothing can be done to them unless a mod does something, and then that is when punishments are harsher. People get mad and leave, "Hur dur the site is not what is used to be," and shit like that.
Then that's their loss. The people that understand things and look and ask why what's being done is being done will stay. The people that are too stubborn and stuck in their ways aren't needed or wanted here. And if they can't wake up and smell the coffee, then that's their own damn fault.

Take a look at what's in your face. Don't make assumptions about the community. We are a community, yes. But that doesn't change the fact that we are individual people. And individual people sometimes, just don't fucking get it. You lay down a very clear ruleset, and if they don't follow and show some respect when asked nicely, you stamp them out. And if they don't learn, then you do it again. And if it doesn't click, then you say fuck them and cut ties. People will always be people. And sometimes, you have no choice but to cut ties and leave them behind if they aren't willing to wake the fuck up and act half assed decent. I mean jesus fuck, I know it's the internet, but grow the fuck up and just be nice. No, you don't even have to be nice. Just be considerate and don't fling shit.

You know, this would all probably be solved if you set up a simple ruleset. The mods put their foot down on peeps who attack each other. Exactly like the Bungie of yee old days. You can talk and discuss things, but when things become personal or users go out of their way to cause trouble and stir shit, the mods put their foot down. Implement the three strikes, three sets rule to show that we aren't putting up with this shit. This drama is what sunk all the other sites.
First set:
Strike 1: One day Ban
Strike 2: Two day ban
Strike 3: Three day ban
Second Set:
Strike 1: One week ban
Strike 2: Two week ban
Strike 3: Three week ban
Third and final set:
Strike 1: Perma ban
But the rules need to be very clearly defined, and very clearly enforced if a system like this went up. Because it's unforgiving. But that's what mods should be when it comes to problems like this. They put their foot down when they need to, and stamp the bullshit out. If people can't manage themselves properly and in a semi-decent fashion here, then the mods do it for them.

Isaac has the benifit of future technology on his side. And he's an engineer, meaning he has a mind for technology, both new and old(outdated). Price has no chance.

Hey, good luck and all, but I've been writing for years and am yet to actually have someone read it all. If you do better than me, nice. But don't push too hard because its more than likely no one gives a shit.
tf kind of advice is that? Smh
Realism. I'm not trying to persuade or dissuade anyone, I'm just saying how I see it, and I don't want people to get their hopes up over nothing.
What hopes would there be to get up over nothing? If anything, maybe you should take a second look at why you write. Ask yourself why. What did you start writing for? What do you hope to gain? What do you want to achieve? Because I started with one, singular goal in mind. I wanted to fill the void for people out there like me. And over time, as I changed and evolved, my writing did as well. But my goal is still there. Except that now, I enjoy everything I make. I want to create for the sake of creating. Telling a story. It doesn't matter to me how many people like what I create. I do it for myself. Not for fame, money, or anything but me. And over the years, I've been steadily attracting people to me. In fact, last night, as I checked through my inboxes, one of my favorite artists approached me, said they liked my stories, and would be willing to commission me to write for them. The point to all this is, you need to look at where you want to go. Me? I just want to create and bring a spark of life and a piece of myself out into the things I dream up. But I know. It's hard for a writer in today's world. Unless you're a journalist or a reviewer or something, nobody seems to appreciate stories anymore. Nobody has time to read, or wants to, when they're sucked into everything else. But I do. Show me what you have.
