Drax...? Any Chance...?

Drax

This isn't a slamming thread. I've never started one and only rarely participated in them.

But you seem to have an agenda to pursue, and it doesn't match the general mood of the Cellar. There are people here who like Death Metal, but don't flood the music threads saying so. There are people who like SFF pics of girls, who like syndicated shows, who dig beautiful women etc etc but they don't dominate the threads.

All I am trying to say is that this is a community. It's not a show & tell. Give us something to discuss, not just "This is something I like" Let us choose whether something you like is worth discussion or viewing. I post the views of my (foreign) life in one thread. As does Slang. People either read it or they don't.

I may make myself a pariah by saying this, and if the rest of the Dwellars think I'm being a bitch then I will accept this.

But for me it was worth saying.

It's true, just be glad to be alive and we are all friends here, especially you Radar.
Ibby • Dec 15, 2007 10:05 pm

Ok, bye...again. :p

I'll be sure to tell Satan, ya'll said Hi.

i wonder how many other forums drax frequents?

i mean....if your world was limited like his....and you spent as much of your day surfing the net, as it would appear that he does......

i dunno...i've looked for other forums before...and never found any that kept my interest.....

Oh stop it, ya pussy. You ain't near bad enough send there. You ain't even bad enough to kick out.

But listen to what she's saying. You don't have to post every video that blows your skirt up. And it would be nice to hear your opinions on something instead of just sarcastic remarks, every time.

About the only thing I know about you, except your in a chair, is your dislike of the government benefits and health care. Everything else I have to guess from your taste in videos and music.

You sound unhappy and bitter, and if so, lighten up man... we're not the enemy.
ZenGum • Dec 16, 2007 12:27 am
Am I the only one who thought Drax was a milder, quieter version of RK? Something like this:

Drax: [SIZE="4"]O[/SIZE] RK: [SIZE="7"]O[/SIZE]

Seriously, in Drax's defense, ponder that perspective for a moment ... I reckon he's within my tolerance range at least.

I don't think that was the problem. Maybe...the frequency of my posts? One right after another mighta been a bit much.

Well, the government does have a few benefits for me, mainly my RSDI income.

As for healthcare, it does have many flaws IMO, but fortunately I've not run into too many of 'em...yet.

I've updated my profile bio. Take a looksee.
xoxoxoBruce • Dec 16, 2007 3:38 am
That's a start. Be cool, man.
Ibby • Dec 16, 2007 4:25 am
Another thing... that was 4 posts. in a row. immediately after eachother.

Double posting should be kept to a bare minimum except soooometimes when bumping. After that... it becomes annoying and idiotic very quickly. There's a VERY handy multi-quote button AND an edit button AND a host of other ways to condense your flood of posts into a nice, happy single post.
Drax • Dec 16, 2007 4:51 am
I'm tryin' to be cool Bruce, but the young one's not makin' it easy.
Ibby • Dec 16, 2007 7:01 am
...which is odd because that was a very nice, impartial, helpful post pointing out the very simple ways you could condense annoying strings of posts into one post, which is the polite convention for message boards.

Maybe if you used the appropriate smiley, I wouldn't've been thinking "Don't rub it in." ;)

Oh, and I think this is more of community, rather than just a message board. :D

Hey Drax

Nice to read your posts now. Good work.

If you can't be happy all the time when posting, that's fine but at least be funny while you are all pissed off or annoyed. :blush:

Zen Gum,

Great comparison. Except now Rk is gone and Drax is posting better, more interesting stuff.
Shawnee123 • Dec 18, 2007 12:56 pm
OK, who do we bash in January? Hang in there, Drax, just a few more days till the Bash of the Month Club moves on. ;)

to his credit i think drax's posts have improved considerably recently. bring on the funny cats.

I've teased the Drax too, probably because he takes it so well. Must give credit for that!

I like the cat thread. It always makes me laugh...and I have to say that Drax does take a fair bit of crap from people around here without being a complete arsehole like some others.

Anyway, sorry to post this after you've all had your say. I just wanted to acknowledge that although Drax gives me the shits sometimes, I think he's not too bad after you get used to him.
Sundae • Dec 24, 2007 10:51 am
Drax, I dreaded coming back to this thread because I regretted it after I posted, but had no internet access in order to do anything about it.

You took it very well and you didn't have to. Thank you for not just telling me to shut my mouth - I have a lot of respect for you for that.

BTW - I LOVE the cat thread too.
Drax • Dec 24, 2007 3:17 pm
Well, I just don't wanna be a pest.

Anyway, I'm back on my medication. :D Naw, seriously.

Well, ya'll wanted a bit of realness from me, so I thought I'd give ya my real name, but now that I think about it, using my name on a public board may be a mistake. Not cuz of you guys, but some hacker might might be able to ruin my life with this information. I'm getting truly scared now.

Attn UnderToad, if you see this post PLEASE delete this account. I'm begging you.

Thanks for the kick in the pants Ali.

Goodbye JRS. Hello again Drax.

It'd be easier if some Dwellars wouldn't attack me for my video and picture posting choices.

I'd like to stick around really, but is it to much to ask that ya'll be a little nicer? If ya'll respect me, I'll respect ya'll. Everyone tells me not to take things personally, but ya'll aren't making it easy.

However, I s'pose I have to get used to the fact that "Attack the post, not the poster" means nothing around here.

I'm not an emotionally strong as ya'll.

I find that interesting cuz there are some Dwellars besides me that have posted videos and pix without any explanation, so why should I be any different, and I am (I think) letting you choose whether you like it or not just by posting it, and if you don't llike, just say so, but don't attack me for posting it. Anyway the video clip and picture threads seem pretty show 'n' tell to me. A good example of a show 'n' tell picture thread would be UTs very own IotD thread.
