Okay, I'll let you guys in on the hoax.

The Icons are dead. 

They're all died six months ago in tragic plane crash en route to Dokken concert. demi and I chose to create a machine capable of replicating their personalities based on their post history, genetic makeup and complex algorithms.

We felt that the forum would die if the truth was known, something that MrAngryFace (the only survivor, as he missed his flight) felt was necessary and sought to expose.

So we had him killed.

But now the clone posters are beginning to develop their own thoughts and personalities - they are beyond our control now.

Cyanista actually foresaw the plane crash and avoided the Dokken trip altogether.

I really liked Resurrection, not as a movie but as an audiovisual showpiece. That was in my film student/junior compositor days, so hey. And to Jeunet's credit, that scene with the "baby" was genuinely troubling.
Title: Re: I'm leaving, who's with me
Post by: Bebpo on May 15, 2009, 12:25:21 AM
I don't think Resurrection is a bad movie.  It's got some cool visuals and the green/blue tone to it is neat.  But it's definitely weaker than the other films.  The story was kinda bad too.  The part with the thing getting sucked through the hole in the escape pod is kinda  :-\

I really liked how all 4 of the main Alien films were done by awesome directors in completely different styles.  It's neat having all these takes on the Alien mythos.

Too bad Paul Anderson touched it next  :yuck

Ressurection had a cool scene. The underwater scene, and then when the dude from CSI went all cowboy upside down.
Title: Re: I'm leaving, who's with me
Post by: duckman2000 on May 15, 2009, 12:29:43 AM
I just thought it was a genuinely powerful moment. It might just be because I'm somewhat deranged, but I totally bought into the whole "baby" thing, and I thought the whole concept of a mother using the trust of the baby to kill the baby was pretty disturbing. The movie failed in plenty other ways, but I also think people are too quick to disregard the genuinely cool scenes (the above mentioned scene may or may not belong in that category). The dude being told that there is something in him and the later chest burst scene, that was hardcore all the way through.

Yeah, all joking aside, It's beyond me how anyone could prefer 4 over 3. Different strokes, I guess.

As Bebpo mentioned, the multiple styles and directions the films took, jumping genres, is the main reason i enjoyed 3 so much at the time. I was expecting an action flick, and got something completely different, which wound up being more interesting.

That said, I saw 3 in the theaters when it came out, and haven't seen it since.  :shh

Yeah, I've never seen the Fincher cut which I hear is even better.  I almost never rewatch movies.  Because of this, I have no idea why I still occasionally buy them.

You're the biggest cuntrag on this forum, Ketastrophe, so you've got no room to talk.

TCC is like Mandark's annoying little brother. Knows his politics and a few other subjects, thinks of himself as far more intelligent than he actually is. But he lacks Mandark's restraint and subtle humor.

I'm confused- is kestastrophe a bigger cuntrag than patel?

As for me, restraint and subtlety have never been my strong suits.  I prefer the mallet to the scalpel, always have and always will.

And as for why I'm so pissy?  Because in the name of some stupid open door policy or some shit, good posters (patel, cohen, tvc) are leaving.  It's pretty much a direct trade off of "let's keep the shitburger brigade around and alienate our quality posters".  Well, I've decided that I'm not leaving and in fact have decided to make everyone I perceive as a shitty poster's time here as uncomfortable as possible.  So expect plenty of me following you dipshits around from thread to thread being an asshole.

That's dumb if Icons are leaving because of a few shitty posters (in their opinions).  Icons already dominate this forum.

Wouldn't "forum martyr" be someone who gripes about the state of the place and then goes into exile? And then he/she becomes a symbol that others reference when they start griping about what has happened to the place (while, naturally, viewing themselves as perfectly faultless).

Anyway, if you want to maintain a clique of narcissistic nerds with no input from the nerd proletariat, keep it to IRC and don't advertise on FUCKING GAF and OA.

See, I don't get this.  If there's any perception of a "clique", it's probably because some of the people here have known each other for years or are actually friends IRL.  New members seem generally welcomed - it's just the dumb or blatantly offensive/trolling ones that have a hard time.  There's a middle ground between "narcissitic nerds" and a few worthless distinguished mentally-challenged fellows, but you don't get there by simply averaging the two together. 

Dumb people should generally be looked down on.  If they want to be forum martyrs for their causes, they'll do so and look even worse.  It's just better for them to find someplace else to go.  Dumb can be defined in a bunch of different ways, but the first test of stupidity comes from seeing if one really gives a crap about the icon system.  Bonus dumb points if it makes the person feel like they're part of some "nerd proletariat" being held down by the man. 

To clarify, I'm mostly apathetic to the whole thing.  It's just that for a gaming forum you'd expect more talk of games and less joking around about evilbore celebrities or other arbitrary bullshit.

Dumb people should generally be looked down on.  If they want to be forum martyrs for their causes, they'll do so and look even worse.  It's just better for them to find someplace else to go.  Dumb can be defined in a bunch of different ways, but the first test of stupidity comes from seeing if one really gives a crap about the icon system.  Bonus dumb points if it makes the person feel like they're part of some "nerd proletariat" being held down by the man. 

To clarify, I'm mostly apathetic to the whole thing.  It's just that for a gaming forum you'd expect more talk of games and less joking around about evilbore celebrities or other arbitrary bullshit.

This isn't a gaming forum, go back to gaf.

Why is this forum so full of itself?  I doubt the icon drama is as tongue-in-cheek as is presented.  That explains why the gaming forum moves so fucking slow.

But that's the thing, I don't think a forum like this can stand on its own without it being a reactionary outlet to GAF shenanigans.  That's pretty much the defining trait.  Instead of
"I don't like the way discussion is facillated on GAF, this is my alternative"
its
"GAF is such a shithole, I'm too refined/better than THOSE nerds"

What? I figured out what JackFrost's new screenname was ,like, in two weeks.  That was an educated guess and apparently his real name gets thrown around casually here enough I didn't think it would be inconsiderate.

Ugh I'm Joshua Burke btw, nice to meet you.

Part of the reason Ichirou became unwelcome around here was because he kept using stuff from Patel's personal life to troll, so Patel's probably not cool with that.  

See, I don't get this.  If there's any perception of a "clique", it's probably because some of the people here have known each other for years or are actually friends IRL.  

I used to agree with you but it's gone beyond that recently.  Lately, it's just been Icons patting one another on the back for being awesome and disparaging regular members' opinions simply because they aren't Icons.  

EB would be much better if most of the Icons would lost their superiority complexes and just be cool like Frag and Distantmantra.  Those two never brag about how awesome they are.  They just keep making good posts.

Yes.  I miss the days when we used to discuss games instead of just posting gaming news or talking about what we've been playing without going in depth about the games' merits.

Ok, I'm not going to disagree with you about some of us (icons) being assholes.  I'm probably the main offender, whatever.

But seriously?  You think we just like to slap each other on the back?  Uh, I *like* pretty much everyone that's an icon.  They're my reason for posting here for the main part.  So of course I'm going to want to interact with them.  I'm not saying that everyone else is "ew, what a fucking unwashed plebe, get them away from me" but if you genuinely enjoy the e-company of certain people, maybe you have a different lingo with them than you do others.  Fuck, me and pee dee have our own lingo down and he's not an icon, for example.

Now as for looking down on people... tell me, why should I treat wriak wrek, drewsy, green shinobi or foc as an average poster?  They're not.  They're bad posters.  This is an objective valuation.  The forum would be better off without them.  Fuck, for all of his insanity ICHIROU was a better poster than them.  He could at least carry on a decent conversation with someone when he wasn't freaking out.

Anyway, I just kind of think you're overstating things.  THERE IS NO FUCKING ICON CONSPIRACY TO MAKE NON-ICONS FEEL BAD ABOUT THEMSELVES.  The icon forum sees MAYBE one thread a week.  If you've noticed icons being shitty to certain posters, it's probably because THEY'RE SHITTY POSTERS.

No problem with that.  In fact, the person that I most regularly have PM conversations with, is an Icon.  I just hate it when the Icons rely on their "superior" statuses to make their arguments.  

Supposedly, someone became an Icon because he or she was a great poster.  So, an Icon shouldn't have to resort to pulling rank when someone offers a disagreeing opinion.

I brought up countless times why I wish MAF was back.  See, MAF was actually awesome because he didn't think his awesomeness had anything to do with Icon status.  

Lately, it's just been Icons patting one another on the back for being awesome and disparaging regular members' opinions simply because they aren't Icons.  

See this is the problem. It's not because they have a superiority complex but because for some reason you're feeling inferior that you let their opinions and their forum-status get to you more than it should.

Why would you care if an icon is agreeing with you or not? and if you're complaining because their "group attacks" it's because of this exact attitude. You're just making yourself an easy target, one that's fun to troll.

No.  The Icons themselves constantly bring up that others are inferior.  It's got nothing to do with someone feeling inferior because he's not an Icon.  

I like many of the Icons personally but I don't give a crap about whether they agree with me or not.  If I did, I wouldn't have said what I said.

Ding.

I'm going to lock this thread, because now it's just going to devolve into more bickering that folks feel inferior.  Nobody hates anyone, except for bad posters.  But we've also got posters that have established themselves as good posters, even if they were awful elsewhere - see Crushed or Jinfash, for example.

So if you think people are picking on you, you probably should take a step back and look at why that is the case.
