No, DT. First of all, I'm addicted to posting here, so if anyone is parasitic it's me. And if anyone is TOXIC then it's me, as people have already observed.
I'm walling people out for the same reason I've cut connections to friends and family off-line: because I mistreat them.

This place is pretty toxic, it's not you. I've been here watching, and so have a lot of others.
You're basically feeling hurt because 1kiki and occasionally magon are attacking you. They attack absolutely everyone, you don't win a special prize because they don't like you, they argue with their cat, and their own sockpuppets.

Then you are not watching closely. If you will observe, this thread provides ample evidence for my having attacked 1kiki, Sig, Niki, Magons, Storymark, Chris, Anthony, Mal4Prez, and Oonj. I also know that I have attacked AURaptor, you, and Hero, and I've wanted to attack Kwicko but couldn't make myself do it.
So it's really not them.

Quote:"Don't be so hard on yourself for fucking up, Byte" or "Yeah, you were hurtful, but at least you're nice enough to take responsibility for it" is NOT encouraging and kind when she DID NOT even do anything wrong to begin with.

Apophasis should not be confused with kindness. It's passive aggressive.
Mal4 and Kwicko, THANK YOU for telling Byte what I've been trying to tell her. She did NOT hurt you guys. THANK YOU.

Okay, this is starting to tick me off. Why can't any of you just believe what I am telling you? I have told you all time and again that I'm mean-spirited and vindictive and you've SEEN me act that way. You know that eventually it will turn on you because it takes pretty much no provocation.
And yet you're all still like, oh we trust you, we care about you. All of this trust and concern is dangerous for you. What exactly do I have to do to convince you?
Ergh. You know, I think this thread has served it's purpose. I apologized to Oonj, and I warned you all - again. Whether or not you heed that is up to you. In the meantime, I will continue to work on these issues.

I feel in some ways I understand you. This is how it looks to me: You have daemons independently running routines in the background. One is hostility/rage, another is mendacity, and another is paranoia. They each have good ports to the rest of the system, each with an interrupt function that can override all but some select programs specific to each of them. You also have control over most of the system's peripherals, but you're uncertain if that firewall is sturdy enough to work 100% of the time. You're concerned that at some point the daemons will run in sync, interrupt the rest of the system entirely and override the firewalls - and THEN what?

Gee, project much?
Note to anyone - Please pity the poor, poor wittle Rappyboy. He's feeling put upon lately, what with all those facts disagreeing with what he believes.

By all means, don't hold back on my account. You won't spare my feelings, I promise you. Not because I don't have any, but because you being honest, even bluntly so, is not going to hurt me. I promise. If you can lessen your own pain by hurtling it at someone else for a time, then by all means, let me be your wall, and hit me with all you've got. I've been beaten, shot at, stabbed, attacked by dogs, abused by family, hit by cars, *run over* by a car, had my skull fractured twice, had a claw hammer buried in the back of my head.
If I'm not dead yet, it's not because I'm a delicate flower, I promise you.
You can hold on to your pain, or you can give it away. I recommend the latter.
I cannot speak for Frem, but I know you haven't hurt him, either. You can lash out, and he's one of the ones who will actually understand it. He is, for all intents and purposes, this site's Speaker for the Dead, as it were.
Besides... you're on our boat. You're part of our crew. That means we have to look out for you, even when you despise us for it.

Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

Wow, this thread is really interesting. Byte, you're braver than me, if me and my nemesis Wish were having a PM disagreement I wouldn't be brave enough to seek other opinions, because I'm not as understanding. I'd certainly ask you because you're my good friend, but I would be afraid to show the others what we'd been disagreeing about. For the record, Wish and I have never had a PM argument.
I think ultimately you and Oonj are just very different, you described it well in a letter you sent me once. You don't have to be friends and you know that already.
This got me thinking: People were able to describe what other people's writing makes them sound like. What does my writing make me sound like?
If I weren't so lazy I'd probably be sorely tempted to make a sock puppet, just for fun, to see if I could trick y'all, but we all know that it wouldn't work because I always sound like me, I don't know how to sound like anyone else. Whenever I play pretends all my charactors have me in them, the good guys and the bad guys alike, they are all coming from me because I'm the one playing them, and we only fully know ourselves, sometimes we don't even totally understand ourselves much less anyone else, so it always comes from somewhere you know?
