pretty funny to read Flint being blasted as a newbie, and LJ blasting away at posters of meaningless threads . . .

i was egged on.....


...I'm so ashamed......

isn't it deliciously humiliating to read something you've written just a couple years ago? especially if you can see that you were being retarded and juvenile? I think so...

Great stuff. Apparently, cloney funnies weren't "cool" yet. You are ahead of your time, Flintster.

i just reread through this thread and i have to say that outside of Flint most of the AG invasion did turn out to be shit. fortunately they floated away. I remember being pissed at the absolute flood of shit they brought in.

What's funny is that the "AG invasion" was 99% SteveBsjb and myself. The only flood of shit was the shit that we were stirring.

Aside from the two of us, there was one other guy (that I never even liked on AG) that was a total kiss-ass, trying too hard to fit in, and a few other people that only posted a few times and then lost interest. There were also a few well-behaved AGers that are still members here.

I find it funny that you still believe there was a "flood" or "invasion" of AGers.

From our perspective, there was absolutely a flood. No question.


(where "we" are long term dwellars who were here well before the AG arrival.)

fair enough. there was a not a literal flood of people coming in. But this is the cellar. it seems to be a pretty big month if one new person shows up and becomes an active, positive contributor. You and steveadfhadbfadfhaajob may have been the most active, but my perception was that there was a whole flood of crap. i don't remember the ass-kisser, but I very actively disliked that steve guy's entrance. you, i was cautiously optimistic about. in retrospect I can say that i have an instant dislike/distrust/disinterest in anyone that barges in and instantly has an opinion on every single subject and then plays the "it's only a message board" card. sure, it may only be words on a screen, but i consider the cellar a community of friends. i'm always looking for new friends, but i can be picky about who i like.

Why does everyone misinterpret my "it's only words on a screen" mantra? This is meant to HELP people realize they shouldn't get upset when someone is "mean to them" or insulting on a message board. I get the whole community thing, I really do, but I draw the line at being offended by a faceless post on a message board.

Glad people here seem to appreciate the cleverness which is a clone thread now. I hope newbies aren't being forced to "fit the fuck in". Message boards should be a melting pot. I think all my posts in this thread were quite calm, cool, and polite. I have never been rude first, but I will fight fire with fire (but only because it provides a momentary smirk - never an LOL).

The AG invasion was fun. It didn't ruin anyone's lives. It gave everyone something to talk about. I think it helped create your "Nothingland" too. And AG is still great too. Glad to see that Flint hung in long enough to fight the good fight and show that people from planet AG mean you no harm.

But, it is really only words on a screen you know.

I may start posting here on a regular basis again.

Was this the thread Marichiko talked herself into a permanent ban with? Gawd, she was crankish.
