My introduction thread; ruined by idiots.

What a shit experience this has been so far.

So I’ve been wanting to join GBAtemp for a while now but always had a tendency to back off because a lot of the community in websites like these is annoying kids, abusive moderators, and just a whole lot of stupid people.

But fuck it,

I’ve been pissed of at life lately and decided what the heck. So I made an account. Just to really go all out I made an introduction thread titled:

“Hello GBATemp! My name is Paolo and check out my signature!”

I made a Linkin Park themed signature gif that I spent an hour and a half making. I took the METEORA album logo and pixelated it, mirrored it, and got a cool font and made my name vibrate; I thought it was awesome.

So for the first couple posts everything was fine. I had some people tell me how to improve my signature, to make it less shaky and smaller. Those were helpful. I liked those posts.
The bullshit didn’t start happening until the idiots in the reply’s started talking about NancyDS or some shit, and some dude was posting unrelated and unfunny meme/pictures.

My first thread was only alive for twenty god damn minutes before going down the shitter at the hands of the commenters.

But yo now what fuck that.

I can care less about the thread, I just want to see how people liked my signature.

EVERYBODY FUCKING HATED IT.

I felt defeated.
My own thread and reputation, all blown within one of my first threads ever.
Ugh

I was hoping to make a rosy cheeked happy blog post as a way of introducing myself (after my thread went bad), but I can’t help at being pissed of right now.
Ah well.

I’ll learn to like it here.

Somehow.

You got some of the weirder tier members right out of the gate without having a chance to adjust. Don't take it too hard lol. Next time if you see something offroading your thread, there's a little report button you can use. Chances are, the mod team will come in and clean it up and make the thread less of a mess. :)

It’s cool,
This post was more of a joke than anything lol.
I actually had a great time, everybody was pretty funny and it made the thread really interesting!

GBAtemp is a lot less Idiocrazy than most other things. A lot of smart people here.

I did not understand why your Introduction got derailed so badly and Nancy was even mentioned?! Totally off topic.
Nancy's threads with Utopian ideas are/were in my opinion trolling and not funny – just not my kind of humor. (I only gave an answer to such a thread once, when I was still not 100% sure it was trolling and google showed the thread as top search result for a certain search term and I don’t want to have a GBAtemp thread with unanswered nonsense as top result on Google).
Maybe some members are still a bit “pissed” by the trolling and it hit you?? Should not have happened. They should just ignore trolls in the future (don’t reply) and click on report.

Your signature looks like a bit of work, but I have to admit: animations of any kind in signatures are not my thing (distracting when reading the forum).

There are a lot of smart people here really, worth to say that twice and it’s worth the time. Have fun.

believe it or not, those are some of our more tame weirdos, but there are still one or two stable members floating around, so don't let this bad experience drive you away.
 
Chary called me weird. I don't know if I should be upset or happy with that statement.
:hateit::nayps3::cry::cry::evil::evil::rofl::rofl::lol:

For the record I'm not weird I'm unique lol.

Ha I know lol anyone else said it and I would have been pissed off but it's very hard to get annoyed at Chary.
 
@Paolosworld no but Chary mentioned "weird members", which included AmandaRose, who happens to be trans.

I think the member Chary was talking about was H1B1Esquire. It’s like he’s speaking English, it looks like English, but it’s not.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Most emulators will be like that where it asks for a parent directory
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    @Sicklyboy, 3ds batteries are fairly cheap just don't overspend on oem
