my friends are not imaginery..

or so the voices in my head tell me
Dear Robertt:

While there is no specific rule against digging up really old threads, it is generally considered bad internet etiquette to go grave digging. It's not quite as bad as running around insulting people, but slightly worse than spouting random stuff that doesn't have anything to do with the thread topic.

Mind you, there are some thread topics that SHOULD be revisited occasionally. These are few and far between though, and should be revisited sparingly.

EDIT: Actually on some forums it IS a rule to not necro an old thread. It's not an official rule on this forum though, just bad form.

You make time to respond to threads that are more than 10 years old, and to people who might not even be still alive. :)

[Hi Seoulsearch. I bet 10 years ago, you didn't imagine me replying to you in this very thread!]

If some sites lock threads, and some sites have rules about digging up old threads... Do you ever wonder why? That should tell you something.

it tells me that this site doesnt mind its old threads that are itneresting beign responded to..

I am sure someone will complain i will get banned and all the heretics posting false doctrines in other threads wont get banned. but upsetiting some posters who are too clever to get bored and have control to wait for new ones is the worst thing to do.

If you want me to post on new threads. then post some. dont ask me to sit around all day doing nothing waiting. thankyou

Nah, I've never seen anybody get banned for necro before. It's not quite that important, or quite that rude.

when you get banned and use a VPN to get around a ban ...
That's not a sign of being addicted. That's just sad. People who do that have no lives and are too lazy to find better uses for their time.

I might be slightly biased in this because I used to be a moderator on apostolic chat. ;)

Yes it is great to be reminded of that..

Nah, you can be addicted to chat and still have a life. I am and I have one. So are a few other people I know on this forum, and they still have lives.

The ones who use VPNs to get around a ban, though... Those dudes really don't have a life!

If you have never used a VPN before, you shouldn't take what I said personally.

But on that subject... It's probably not the best idea in the world to talk on an internet forum about getting around bans by using a vpn. It's kind of like sitting in a restaurant and talking loudly about the time you got kicked out of a restaurant and got back in by wearing a disguise. Don't be surprised if the manager of the restaurant comes around and asks you to leave.

no love for my self. and i guess no one is going to love someone who doesnt love them selves.

No point challenging me every post you do

The way i am is not my choice. i dont sit and think. hmmm how do i hate myself more today.

it just happens it is what it is. I pray about it and ask for help.
but seems that people on here like to poke the person who is down , and suggest they need to chnge the way they thinking . and make that person feel it is their own fault for choosing to be sad or down.

When i did try suicide 15 yrs ago. my real life sister texted me during the event "Dont be stupid" yep that certianly changed how i felt and made me think i worthy to live.
Thankfully God placed thoughts in my head of my children and that is what made me stop sitting in the car with hose pipe in exhaust. IT was God that staggered me to the garden.

But it all good. WE al ldifferent . I am not one of the Forum elites who attracts people with witty posting and popular stuff. never been a popluar person. i havent had single freind in real life for over 20yrs. NEver got picked on teams in school . was beaten up by the bullies both physically and mentally. I was a nerd who aced all my school work and was beaten up when i got 100% in my exams.

Yep i choose to be this low. i choose to be disliked.. ummm no it not my choice. i hope and pray one day God moves.

Yes, you DO choose.
One day you're going to realize WE'RE ALL MISFITS and you're going to feel much better :cool:
