Good-Bye

I'm leaving this forum, for three reasons:

1. As I stopped Paint Wars, I have no further purpose here. I now pass that project on to SweHanson, and hopes that he can finish it without as much trouble as I had.

2. I'm not like you people. I love games, you don't like them very much. I don't like movies, and you people obsess over them.

3 (and this is the big one). I suffer from Autism, and am easily offended by many things, and most of you here have a knack for being offensive, and enjoy offensive material. Once I spoke out against something that deeply offended me, and what did you do? You defended the offensive material and flamed me for it. Also, some people on this forum tried to run me out of town with "offensive" material, because it forced my cousin to leave in tears. I wasn't offended by the material, but the fact that you tried to run me out was enough to upset me.

I may still speak with Sluggo and some people in the Preservation community about Star Wars bootlegs in private. But other than that, this is the end. Good-bye. I hope you all learned a valuable lesson from this. I will be joining my cousin at Outer Rim Sieges, because 1. They respect their members, and 2. they have a video game thread so I'm welcome there.

Don't really know how to formulate a response to everything I'd like to respond to, so I guess I'll just say this:

Bye!

I used to be very active on this forum. I’m not really anymore. Sometimes, people still want to get in touch with me about something, and that is great! If that describes you, please email me at [my username]ATgmailDOTcom.

Hi everybody. You’re all awesome. Keep up the good work.

Um, I've been posting in our Video Game thread all day. It's currently two threads down from this thread, so I'm not sure what you're talking about as far as us not liking video games.

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

You need to learn the difference between certian forum members, and the community as a whole. You cousin posted to complain about the beautiful women thread, when an easy solution would have been for him simply not to open the beautiful women thread. I think Stinky was the offending person who responded by posting pictures of scantly clad women, this is something they we have all gotten use to from Stinky. I don't think anybody intended to run him off. If he was here for SW conversation, that would have been the place to stay. If you are so easily offended, I think the SW and Preservation section is a good place to be. Most of the offending material, I am assuming, takes place in the Off Topic section.

Video games have been a pretty hot topic lately, and plenty of the members here are gamers.

You say you don't like movies that much. And yes, there are a lot of film geeks around here, film preservation is one of the main points of this site. You seem to be really fond of the Thief and the Cobbler, if it had not been for this site do you think you would ever have heard of it in the first place?

We make jest at one another around here, but I don't think anyone seriously means to offend anyone else (well, most of us don't). Perhaps most of are not use to playing with kids who are very sensitive. We had a female gynecologist leave us at the end of last year for simular reasons. I guess we can get a little crass at times, but that is usually expected from adult male conversation (of which most of us are). It is not that we get extremely offensive. And I don't think anyone was trying to run you off. For the most part, you handled yourself pretty well in that thread (from what I can remember anyway). When someone tries to offend you, or you think they are trying to offend you, the best way over it is not to give them the satifaction of seeing you get in a huff about it.

Anyway Zig, don't know whether to take this Good-bye seriously. If the paint wars experience taught us anything, it is that what Zig says isn't the law. If you change your mind and decide to hang around, feel free. Oh, and if you feel the need to say good-bye again in the future, there are already at least five "I am leaving forever" sort of threads lying around. Might as well resurrect and pirate one of those.

Uh, isn't this whole forum based on movies.

This always seems to be the basis of many of the people that feel the need to start w thread when they leave. I personally like the fact that the moderators are lax around here, they know when to step in and they always try to let the posters work things out or agree to disagree. I like it here because we don't have Hilter moderators that so many other people seem to really like.

Obi gee why en

Or however she spelled it. I am assuming they were a women, because all three times I accused her a being a forty year old woman she never once tried to argue against it. If she had been a man, he would have jumped jumped on me for accusing him of being female. She got offended because she felt we played to rough. I think Stinky and Rob hurt her feeling during the "I am ashamed to be an American" Pearl Harbor conversation. So she left to go spend her time at some more mature forum. Or so she said, in reality she made a goodbye thread and camped in it for the rest of the year.

Obi Jeewhyen was neither a female nor a gynecologist. In fact, I believe he was a lawyer.

I always thought these kind of threads where for little cry baby kiddie lurkers who had no intention of leaving, but just wanted a little attention. GOOD BYE! AND GOOD Riddance. Go to whatever teeny bopper little kiddie site you want maybe TFN?

even a moron knows this so why all the grief ?

What was the big offender that someone said he must be gay?

I believe it was Obi Jeewhyen and Rob; they got into an argument and Obi started calling Rob a homophobe because his signature said "Emotcons are gay" ...

Then Rob said that he was gay and called Obi a homophobe. And after that I didn't see much of Obi.

The gynecologist thing was a bit of a joke, mostly so people would know who I was talking about. I never thought he/she/it was really a gynecologist, I was just making a reference to their name.

About them being a male however, are you sure? He/she mentioned something about defending her/his maidenhood, which seemed like a very feminine thing to say, but could have been sarcasm. He did mention being forty I believe. And from the moment he mentioned his maidenhood, I always refered to him as if he were a she and he never once protested. So I took it for granted that he was in fact a she. Why does this post keep making me think of Anakin and Obi-Wan entering a bar?

All his/her posts suddenly made sense to me when I realized that he was a forty year old woman. Now that he turns out he is not a forty year old women, he is again an enigma to me.

Is that aimed at Moth3r or StarTrooper?

I am sorry Zig feels he has to leave, but the offending incendent he mention happened about two months ago. His point in leaving seems to be more about our lack of interest in video games and extreme interest in movies.

Whatever the reason, these goodbye threads get annoying. Seems like we get one a month, then whoever posts them always comes back again, or takes years to leave. It is very often a cry for attention. I can see why Moth3r responded as he did. But perhaps it is not the best exhibit of behavior for a moderator. Feels like the moderator kind of gave up on this place after the rift, back when everybody felt that pissing on the mods was the cool thing to do. Every other post was a complaint at the mods for the way they handled the FE situation. Personally I think their behavior in that situation was fair enough, but since that time I rarely see them post at all, where as it felt like they were fairly active members of this community before that.

I like how his biggest reason for leaving the forum is suffering from autism.

I don't know, I just think it's pretty awesome that this forum is autistic-proof.

Can't say that I'd miss him much, he really threw me off with that whole "my cousin cried cause you offended him" bit. What happened to the good ol' days when people weren't offended so easily, and if they were they just left wherever they were and didn't cry about it. It really confirms my theory that the world, especially my great country of the USA, are churning out pussies by the thousands.
