One of my internet (true) story

Postby JBL » Sat May 31, 2008 4:58 pm

Seeing that random shit thread with nudes in it.. it reminded me a very fun story that happened to me on the internet. Everything here is 100% true. I thought it is a good idea to tell my story here because you'll all know what I'm talking about and you will mostly agree with me..

Here we go... let's start with a nice animated sig made by me.

http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/cc11 ... 1201573666

Don't you love it?? well.. not everyone agree..

Not so long ago, I was a global moderator on another very popular internet forum. I happened to use this signature. My avatar was another crop of the Aphex Twin Windowlicker video.. Most of the forum members
were literally scared of my signature... Some even started menaces against me because of that signature.. I tried to make them understand that there's an option on the forum to disable avatars and/or signatures, but it seems that because of their bad taste, I had to suffer. My sig was legal according to every rules on the forum.. so what's the problem?

I remember someone who said he was going to give me something if I changed my signature.. so it gave me the idea to start a thread about it... I was asking for that forum's currency in exchange of me changing sig.. I made a very detailed thread about it.. it was a bit like a contract.. shortly after making this thread, after getting a few offers, I got accused of blackmailing... wow.. asking for a virtual currency that doesn't worth anything in exchange of changing an image that is under my posts, while those who don't want to see the image can disable it.. I still don't see how it can be considered as blackmail. I guess these retards take their forum too seriously..

Anyway.. after argueing with them in my thread.. (I'm a very rational person when it comes to this kind of issue) I lost my moderator privilege because of the sig (and apparently because of the argueing.. which was all justified and rational) and they strongly suggested that I change my sig, even if it was legal considering the rules of the forum.

So basicly, I was in the presence of a forum that is against freedom of speech and rational arguements... and against a team of mod and an admin who abuse of his power for no valid reason...

all that Internet trouble because of a some images taken in a music video, that is allowed on tv.

It's hard to believe that some people have their mind so closed.

Shitloads of forums have mods and admins drunk with power. Nothing new really.

Haha i like the idea of a forum moderator being drunk with power... something seems so contradictory with that... or maybe nor contradictory but hilariously tragic. Anyway, i agree with the jist of this thread, i don't see any problem, they are clearly fools.

Why are some people so anal? Don't you just get the feeling that half the world doesn't know how to laugh.

What do you mean? I sure know how to laugh..

me and my friends sometimes use the word "penis" Do you think it is because we are immature and this word makes us laugh? (actually, you couldn't think such a think or anything else since you don't know us.. but it's just a way to write stuff) In fact we use it because others feel that the word is "taboo" and they are offended by it. I feel that being offended like that by such a word is the immature reaction face to this word. laughing at the word thinking its funny (like what the children does) is applying a form of this taboo, the children find the word funny because they know they shouldn't say it because their parents find it "taboo" that's an immature reaction, it's only a word, and an important one.

Here I'm using penis as an example, but I believe it applies for every words.

By using such words and provoking the weak, I show my open minded nature.

I meant the people who forced you to change it from cock, with the obvious pun/innuendo, to rooster don't know how to laugh (at the world/themselves.) Not that you don't/can't laugh.

You should of at least changed it to Cockerel. But it may just be the fact i don't like Americanisms talking...

let's all get analogue baby!
