Rudeness.

category: residue [glöplog]
Considering some people in here feel free to belittle others & tell them to "piss off to 4chan" etc. because they feel that said poster is not adhering to being part of the demo scene (as they see it) - here a some truths.
Google the RIT -

This should be lauded, not ridiculed/closed. Considering some of the responses to my posts (but I've seen the same attitude displayed towards others) some of the shit you might cop from say b3ta or 4chan is positively friendly.
Many of the post on this BBS are not only about the demo scene. (I'd be interested in the breakdown in terms of category and volume of posts.) To wit -

The oldskool pouët BBS is not the demoscene | to release their frustrations
In other words - this is a niche site but not all of the topics in the 'forums' are part of that niche - get over it. To those who have already quoted me the spiel, I have read
Quote:
New users: please take your vaccines before entering, don't expect instant praise, and try not to feel easily insulted.
& don't worry, having been a netizen for a while I have a moderately thick skin. & I'm certainly not holier-than-thou having dealt my share of shit-slinging but I don't feel that I've been half as rude, insulting or bullying to anyone I've dealt with as some of my detractors have been towards me.
Just 1 person's perception of his reception. I'm sure I'll cop a load of the usual priggishness but sadly I'll be expecting it.
Some of you need to lift your game...

OK, allow me to spell this out in more detail than it really deserves:

You are not getting as much respect on here as you think you deserve.

What you would realise, if you actually gave a fuck about the community that hangs around here, is that nobody on here ever gets respect just from posting random images. Well, not unless they're absolutely shit hot at finding random images that the rest of the community find entertaining. Which you're not, as evidenced by all the people telling you to fuck off.

What you're doing is the equivalent of wandering into a football team's changing room, trying to join in their banter, and when they tell you to GTFO, protesting "But nobody else is playing football in here! I should be allowed to be here not playing football as well."

Or to put it another way, piss off to 4chan.

gasman has leading. also, piss off to 4chan.
And you folks thought ghettosceners were bad already.
Now you've got emofags trying to make this place a 4chan-wannabe.

One more thing.
He comes from 4chan and calls us rude?
Interesting that all the respondents I expected proved my point beyond a doubt. Jesus, being true to form or what?! It would appear that not many of you read past the first sentence *apart* from gasman - thanks for that gas. Interesting analogy, I personally don't hang around mens locker rooms unless it's before or after the game I'm involved in - not sure about you tho. I will point out that I'm not seeking respect here (as I don't do demos - which I have pointed out to others before)

If you wish to see some of my code I can give you a list of my clients - some of them *may* sell you the source for some of the proggies I've done for them (they get it gratis).

but getting "respect" for posting pics is a bit too puerile, even for me!
@ spiny - Whether you were being sarcastic or not thanks for the hug.;-)

Nice analogy, gasman.

Yeah, especially considering the latent gayness involved.

ringofyre: just get webspace and do your own RIT ?!!
whats the problem ?
promoting it ? ( just put some keywords like "random" "image" "thread" "like" "pouet" "had" )

you gotta understand just one easy point in this matter:
everything on this page has to do with demoscene, even if sometimes not directly visible !
even for the RIT this applied until some point of time, as pictures that got posted have been random but at the same time inspiring for new demo-stuff !
it just derailed at some point.
other threads not directly scene.related just spawn because lots of ppl in the scene share the same interests.
and others just spawn because non-sceners found the RIT or another thread they liked and thought they could open their own thread with whatever as a subject.

i am considered a troll here myself for my drunken posts, but i atleast am a scener and release prods all the time and dont open senseless threads ;) ( ok, i did so in the past and i am ashamed :/ )

but after having said so:
if you want a RIT, do your own or piss off to 4chan.
ok, the really bad thing about it is:
we have to bump threads like this one to make ppl like you understand that you block our beloved bbs with your shit. ( bcoz we just bumped it ontop once again :/ )
always this residue is at the top of the list and really relevant threads ( to our scene that is ) have to be found by clicking MORE or even SEARCH.
my BBS-topics-customization is at 50, while 20 is max ( just for the stupid occasion of someone opening more slots at some point of time, which makes no sense as 20 is really enuff...NORMALLY ! )
[/rant]

thanx to gargaj and/or whoever came up with the idea: blocking residue is really helpful...for an anarchist site best solution !! ( i just have to switch it on sometimes due to being snoopy, haha )
now add a flag for general-topix aswell, plzktnx ?! :)

Maybe pouet needs to find a way to vet its new members so that poeut can verify that they are ONLY members of the elite cadre of "sceners"? Otherwise, best to be blaming it on the nefarious interwebs.
