[Split Infinity]

Ever notice how almost all threads consist of a single post from its creator in which he/she asks a question. He/she then proceeds to answer the question using his/her own opinions. He/she then asks the question to anybody else who may be reading. These receipents then continue answering this one single question with their various unique opinions, until the thread eventually gets old or goes off-topic and is closed. You never see anybody having a normal everyday conversation on forums. You know, one guy talks, then the other, etcetera.

How long will this dull, antisocial fad go on for? Only time can (and will) tell.

Actually there a ****load of threads around here that are contrary to what you posted.

That's members that have only been here a few days for you.

:P

[Split Infinity]

And that's ex-Moderators for you. Aha! I got you there!

Wait...that has nothing to do with anything.

Yesterday, I posted in the mod forum in another forum.

My post was:

And it's okay :D!

Well considering I left on my own terms, had an ok run, and don't have any bitterness towards anyone over it... Yes, that does have nothing to do with anything. And now this topic is proving you wrong. Well done.

[Split Infinity]

And that's my two cents. :P

[Neon]

One could compare GSSF to politics, lol ;P.

[Split Infinity]

Politics are different in the way that they eventually conclude with an agreed opinion. But I'm sure everyone knew that. If not, come back when you pass kindergarten. From memory I think you need an F+.

And now I'm rambling again.

[Neon]

Politics are the same in that every topic goes around in circles until everyone starts insulting eachother and turns to character asassination in an attempt to bolster their otherwise illogical arguments.

[Split Infinity]

One could compare GSSF to politics, indeed.

[Neon]

The biggest difference is that GSSF can be very fun and amusing while politics is just boring and frustrating :P.

[Eugine]

I know sometimes the forum seems so Split, espcially in places in Forum Help and Suggestions and such, but in Off-Topic (as far as I can see), its much different we usually have a nice chat here and there. I also learn a hell load of things of this forum.

well you do your discussing, and depending on what people say, you might think to yourself "gee, this person seems interesting" so then you add their address to your messenger list and thats where more socializing is done. Its actually pretty neat, some people get a circle of friends where people know eachother really well.

and yeah. I learned a LOT of things from this place. most of which I don't think I really needed to know :P

[Someone Else]

*points at TRT*

And I learned a good deal from this place, but now I am a genuis and I don't learn **** here. Hell, I think I've learned less off these forums these days.

I need more gway stuff... for meh head...

[Split Infinity]

TRT is an obvious exception. That place is a mosh pit of spam. It was meant to be that way.

[Nemphtis]

The first post was utter crap. The poster needs to pay more attention to topics and what the point of a forum is.

Why is the above poster refering to Split Infinity in the third-person? Split Infinity would assume that the above poster should want to talk in the first-person.

I got a name, alright? It's Split.

[Nemphtis]

Although I normally break the rules anyway, I'd just like to state to the person above that there's nothing wrong with talking in third or first person. But I'm sure if you talk to Max he can arrange to add it to the rules page if you offer him something good, like a goat.

[Julian]

Uh, lets break this off before this drags on into a flamefest?
look split, i have no idea what you were trying to prove to us by posting this but it's kinda obvious nobody really cares as long as we're all having a good time on these forums. You're giving me to impression that your picking out the smallest things and peck at it and that is totally obnoxious. Just atleast try to be more proactive, that way, atleast you'll get a good impression from everyone.
>_o

[Nemphtis]

Yeah, like Julian just explained; bow down and worship me.

[pHantOm]

*In response to the first post and why the thread was made*

I think 80% of the threads here are social threads dude....

[Sea of Time]

Maybe more like 60% but Eugine is right, in the Off-Topic forum, most of the topics are like conversations. Even this topic has come to knock you down. This topic has become a conversation. So I wouldn't say all the topics are like that, perhaps the ones in Other Games but certainly not all the topics at GSSF.

[Someone Else]

Anyone notice that Split Infinity disappeared anyway?

[Julian]

o_o i just realized he hasn't logged on since Jan 9... doh >.<
