This Ingo Sucks/Zigfried kid has been a constant thorn in our sides since he first registered.


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.


I know, people are way to sensitive these days. But I think Ingo/Zig and his cousin's problem are that they are out of their age range. They are looking for TFN quality message boards complete with semi dirty word being edited out. It is hard to imagine Ingo and his cousin above the age of 13 judging by their posts. I really am not sure what to think about Ingo saying that he is in college. I guess I should give him the benefit of the doubt, but I am finding it very difficult.

i hope your next.

Yay! \o/


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.


that was for starshiptrooper.
i dont see why people have to get so bent out of shape when someone decides to leave. the majority of the time i think they just want us all to say.... "NOOOO, don't go! your going to be missed, and your such a great part of this community." Well if people on this forum hurt your feelings then by all means i encourage you to leave. If this place isnt your cup of tea then find some other place that is.

Nobody should be forced to stay. Therefore stop getting angry when people decide to leave.

I guess it is kind of nice to say goodbye rather than just disappearing and not ever posting again. But every single goodbey thread I have ever read on this site give a million reasons why they are leaving and how awfully bad their feeling got hurt.

An ideal goodbye letter would be something like:

"Alright guys I am moving on. I had a good time here, but it is time I move on"
or
"I don't feel like I get along very well with some members of this community, I have had a good time here for the most part. But I think it is time I move on"

If somebody ever posted something like that, I would not find it annoying at all. But every single good bye thread seems like it is either their way of giving the finger as they drive off, or it is them wanting to get attention and inform the whole community that all their troubles in life are due to us and that they will be accepting apologies.

I am surpirsed Zig's post didn't say he would stay if at least 70 of us would sign a petition asking him not to leave. In a way I am sorry to see him go, he was pretty funny sometimes. Things like the petition to get paint wars going again was fantastic. Not to mention Paint Wars was kind of interesting and made even more so by his flakey nature of abandoning it and returing to it constantly.

Hmmm...I gave the whole situation some thought after I posted the reply to the moderator and I realized I probably shouldn't have said anything. I don't know what the guy said on here.... Sorry guys. But I do think it is the wrong way for a moderator to act nonetheless. Oh well. It seems like no one liked him so it apparently wasn't that much of a loss.
I just hate stupid people.

GO JETS!!!!

I agree. I don't mind a good bye thread is it is simply that. Like, a while back, JediSage I think, posted a goodbye thread saying there were some things he needed to do, and that he would be gone for a while. That's cool, and, in fact, I encourage that, because I like to know what my fellow posters are up to rather than them just disappearing. Making a melodramatic exit and burning bridges in the process is just dumb and immature, mostly because there have been enough of them lately to know that nobody's going to take you seriously here if you do.

C3PX said: Gaffer is like that hot girl in high school that you think you have a chance with even though she is way out of your league because she is sweet and not a stuck up bitch who pretends you don’t exist… then one day you spot her making out with some skinny twerp, only on second glance you realize it is the goth girl who always sits in the back of class; at that moment it dawns on you why she is never seen hanging off the arm of any of the jocks… and you realize, damn, she really is unobtainable after all. Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.
