why does every one ignore my posts?

[Brain]

Ok, i'm sick and tired of this.
Almost every single time I post, whatever I say is ignored or glossed over by everybody else.  Any points that I may have made are automatically null and void, and any suggestions I make are looked at for 2 seconds 'till it is realized who suggested them and then they are discarded.

Why is a point that I make any less valid than if Bondo, Ace, Infection, Typhy, or Lothario made it?
Why is any suggestion that passes my lips less worthy than that of any other member of this forum?
Why am i treated as an inferior citizen of this online community?
Were not the forums based on everyone having an equal say?

Did i say something wrong some where along the line?
Did i step on somebody's toes in a post when i didnt mean to?

Please tell me  why I am treated this way, and dont deny it, I can point to several examples quite readily.

just answer this question, WHY DO YOU IGNORE ME? FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WHY?

Frankly, it's because at least half of your posts are worthless. I have found sometimes you have good points, but too much is just spam. After a while, you tend not to read people's posts if you think there is a good chance they will be a waste. For example, I don't read anything SK or Rapid say anymore. It's just pointless. If I were you, I would make an effort to only open your mouth when you have something worthwhile to say. You make some very good points sometimes, but to find it sometimes we must wade through crap. I know there are sometimes I'll read 10-15 threads and post nothing because I don't have anything worthwhile to say.

PS - Don't take this too harshly. I'm just offering some frank constructive criticism. All and all, I for one enjoy having you around these forums, and I think others feel the same way.

[Brain]

well, constructive criticisim is what i was hoping for ace
thanks

[Typhy]

Ace is right, a lot of your posts are worthless, however, you're getting better and better, I now read and underatand almost all of them. I think that it's because Bondo, Ace etc, are moderators and have great reputations of making good posts, and Lothario and I usualy join into the topics that regard clans. Your posts seem to be from sort of an odd spot, you have reputation of someone who posts on everything wether it's called for or not. I try and only make reponces to things that I actually care about, or things that effect myself or my clan. - Just keep at it, you're getting better.

Well Brain, it was easy to see your intentions early on as you publicly announced them:


? ? ? Brain working on Post Count------>

And being that you did so much of that, it showed in the way you replied to posts.  Meaningless with only one thing in mind, adding to the count.  That's how people got thinking the way they did about you Brain

[Typhy]

This is a post directed to Rapid. Not to anyone else, please don't comment on this post, it is to Rapid and Rapid only, I would use Private message, however, he never reads them, Also, I think that you can all agree with the first part:

Rapid! I hate your smileys! I feel that I can no longer read one of your posts without seeing a new smiley.

Second, Rapid, whenever you're on GameRanger or the internet, please oh please come onto Yahoo Instant Messanger, it's my only form on contact outside of forums. Please, be sure to log on more.

Okay, end of part for Rapid, now part for Brain:

Brain, if you really want your posts to stand out so that people read them, fill them with smileys like Rapid does. It sure makes them obvious, while I hate them, I have to admitt, they're eye catching.

Don't worry Brain I don't ignore your posts.  I wub you.  I do as Ace does though.  I may read 20 threads and not post anything because I don't care about the subject or what is being said.  In another case I may read 3 threads and post 10 times because I have an opinion or something to be heard.  It is important to try to do that Brain and post what is important to you.  Sometimes you get responses and sometimes you don't.  It is more likely to get a response.  Sometimes you don't want a response to everything Brain.  I get bothered in GR about some posts in these forums.

[Typhy]

Yes, agreed, when you post on everything, even when you lack knowledge about it, or don't really care about it, your posts aren't as as good, then people loose trust in you in terms of posting, then even when you make a really good post, it won't get read. I only post on things a lot because I am ban from GameRanger so I have nothing better to do, if I was still on GameRanger, you can count on it that I would be on GameRanger talking with frinds or playing Rogue Spear rather than just posting here in these forums, It's inportant to make sure not to post on things that you don't care about, or things that don't effect you, if you don't post often, but when you do, make really good posts, then people will respect you and be sure to read your posts, while if your post on all topics, they start to read less and less of your posts, Grifter was the only person who could give intelegent replies to everything, I don't think that we'll ever see someone like him again.

[Precious_Roy]

Truth is, I gloss over almost everyones post.  I read everything that 6 people say  (5 now): wrath, loudnotes, blackhand, ace, mauti, and previously, grift.

The rest just doesn't interest me unless something catches my eye, or unless I am debating some topic with essentially everyone else in the thread.

Frankly I don't have enough time in the day to read you stuff Brain.  You post so much that i don't care to keep up.

Plus my high school colors were green and white.  But I never liked green, and so now that I'm out of high school I can promptly igore it like I once did.

[Bondo]

*wishes roy would read all of his posts*

About having intellegent replies to everything...I feel I give one intellegent reply on average to each thread...it just happens I have another less intellegent reply (but smartly funny) as well.  Grifter didn't waste his time with being silly, then again, he wasn't mentally unbalanced like I am

frankly, it's because there's too dman many of them

[Typhy]

I have nothing against lots of them. This is a forum, the more posts the better, as long as their good ones, the only thing that I hate is comming in and seeing posts made by people who you can see from their posts, don't really care about the topic. In my opinion, there can't be to many good posts, however, there can easily be to many okay posts.

[Brain]

well, there seems to be a common theme here...
I guess that's something that I need to work on.
