All: We all know that PA can be addictive. And many of you are addicted. However, in monitoring the threads here recently, I have discovered that, without question, Stonebeard is the most addicted of all. Indeed, I cannot even figure out how he posts to four threads simultaneously - and multiple posts at that! And he seems to be able to do this around the clock. Maybe he has insomnia as well. What is absolutely clear is that Stonebeard has no life at all outside PA: zip, nada, zero, zilch. And he really, really needs to get a life - for his own good, for peace of mind, in order to develop social skills outside cyberspace. My concern for him is such that I am beginning a support club for him, through which I hope to figure out how to create some kind of life for him outside PA. All suggestions are welcome. But most of all, it is important that we all show Stonebeard a great deal of love and encouragement. Stonebeard: if there is anything - anything! - I can do, don't hesitate to drop me a line. I am your friend, and I am here to help you. Peace. |

yeah, but i only joind two months ago, and i post almost exclusivly in "discussions not related to music." so while it may seem like i'm an insane fool with no friends, this is an exaggeration. in fact, when school starts back up, me and my friends will surly gather together in the cafeteria and sing drinking songs merrily while we pound down pints of ale like Nordic drunkards. but this is summer and i just found new friends that have similar intrests besides gaming. believe it or not, not many people at my school like or even know of prog. so it is fun to talk to people who do, even if we talk about nonsense like kitty cats. ------------- http://soundcloud.com/drewagler" rel="nofollow - My soundcloud.

Ah, here goes a little story. A long time ago, actually, 4 or 5 years according to the primate human species known as M.A.N. or A.D.A.M., I was a teeny little internetter. There I was, floating on my back in the midst of cyberspace wilderness... And I saw a LotR site in dutch. So I went there. Soon I had the biggest amount of posts on the whoooooooooole forum. And I was known for my childish, emotional, spamlike escapades. So this one time, there was this contest. People wanted to know who was the most liked Fellowshipper, and who was the most liked Fellowshipster. But ofcourse, little old me was not included. This hurted my emotional feelings a lot. So I went about and saw this other thread created. It was called 'the most popular Fellowspammer'. So I campaigned and campaigned and laboured hard every day to become the single most hated spammer of them all. And I won. And I got the prize. I was banned for a whole month. Maybe we should implement that here, what do you say Maani? ------------- Epic. |

I have been banned a total of 9 times at the Dream theater message boards. but not "banned for a week, or a month" that's 9 different user names. They can IP ban me, the can track my comuter network, but I always find a way back! I am by far the most hated member of the fourms and will continue to be that person for life.
I haven't been back in almost 3 months though, so I think its time I find my way back into that place... But on topic, I think you should try to get a girlfriend, Stoney...
But see the problem is, you would first need to leave here to find one.
So it might be tough, but this friday, don't post at all. Go out and get laid, and do the same on saturday, then sunday. Hopefully by then you won't feel the same dependency to this wonderful place. ------------- I can strangle a canary in a tin can and it would be really original, but that wouldn't save it from sounding like utter sh*t. -Stone Beard |
