Message Board Melt-down

PoopyfaceMcGee · January 30, 2006, 12:57:32 PM

On another OT board I occasionally visit, a guy came on today and posted the following (I have removed some proper nouns to protect myself from you fruits coming over there):

QuoteI'm retiring from this forum.

So, why you may ask?

Few simple things.

First and foremost.... I apologize to everyone on this board, mainly the people that run the board (Neil, Scott etc) for some of the trouble, trolling and likewise that I caused over the past couple years. I also would like to apologize to the people who I've met on here and become sort of "net" friends with here on <<mb nickname>>. I think what changed over the weekend was basically the sermon I heard at church this weekend.

Now before you go disregarding me leaving based on "religious" grounds just hear me out on this. What I felt after I heard the message this weekend was that I need to let go of the things that hold me back or that associate with a previous lifestyle, way of thinking etc. Now, since I'm basically confessing and owning up to what I've done, said, acted, wife, not wife, stories etc I might as well lay everything on the line (since I know my credibility at this point is shot and honestly, that's fine with me).

- Never owned an <<model vehicle represented by forum>>
- Made up story about <<modding one car to be more like another>>
- Never owned the <<old school luxury performance car that fixing up gave 'street cred'>>
- Yes posted fake pics of the wife to gain somewhat of a "cool" rank on an internet forum (lame I know)
- Work @ Intel but not for Intel [see contractor] (6 figures? Ha I'm wishful bitch)
- As far as I know, <<username>> isn't ghey.

So those things being said, I think I felt like I was juggling so many lies on this internet forum that I just couldn't bear trying to make more and complicate them. I think one thing that I enjoyed was my post about the <<forum nickname>> Mac'n'Cheese and also the Autoshow pics. That's the real me, that's what I'm like. I guess that's the thing with me, is I realized if I continue to BS you guys and make myself look good, that is not honoring to God and quite frankly, that is a waste of your guys' time, my time and God's time. Those being said.....

Second. I think <<forum nickname>> has changed quite a bit over the past 2-4 years that I've been on the board(s). I think it's become a dumping ground for people's arrogance, flaunting their new toys and ultimately a place to prove self worth. The irony of that... I bought into that and was trying to do that for the past couple years.... Try to keep up with that trend. Quite frankly, I find it to be bullshtein and it's left a sour taste in my mouth. One thing that I think I'd do if I came back to <<forum nickname>> in the future is keep some of the bags at the door so to speak. I think there's something's that is appropriate to the internet and other things that aren't. However, the more I think about it, <<forum nickname>> is more like a Seinfield episode more than anything. This is just my general impression of <<forum nickname>>, not everyone is like this and quite frankly I'm glad that everyone isn't like what I mentioned above.

Lastly,

I'm going truly to miss some of you guys. <<a bunch of user names>>. All of you guys I've enjoyed getting to know over the past year really. Sure there's been shtein thrown on each side but hey, that's what makes people have a personality right? ?

So with that said.... My exit is my introduction to you, <<forum nickname>>:

My name is Aaron <<last name>>, I'm 24 years old, have two Subaru's, a '05 2.5RS Wagon and an '05 LegacyGT in Satin White Pearl. I got married in April to my wife Catherine. I'm currently working as a contractor @ Intel; Feb. will mark my 2nd year working on-site @ Intel. Catherine works @ Northwest Medical Teams (you might have heard about them helping with the Hurricane Kitrina relief effort) and has been there for about a year and a half.

So with that <<forum nickname>>.....

See ya around.

-Aaron-

I just wanted to share, because his post made me laugh. Then, some of of the responses made me laugh even harder. So, my question is this... Why are people drama queens like this? I never want to see any shtein like this on CF.

P.S. If you want the link so you can read the responses, PM me. I'll consider your request. There's some funny ish.

you trying to protect the identity of the board and saying that youll 'consider' giving people the name of it via PM is far gayer than anything in that cats post

Arrogant twat.

Sgt PSN · January 30, 2006, 01:03:19 PM

That's one of the funniest and lamest things I've ever read. Now if only stilloncrack would come clean over here so we could all move on.

You see. This is why I will never understand people who take message boards so goddamned seriously. This freak is having a crisis over lies he told on a message board to complete strangers. What a farging idiot.
