Edgy has accused notables of bullying newbies.

I want names of notables, and I want proof, backing these statements up.

If I don't get these, I am going to work my backside off getting you banned. You do NOT accuse people of doing things they haven't done, wherever you are on Earth.

You know what Edgy? Fun you. I don't give a rats back passage what you think or do, because in the end, I'm Grix Thraves, and I rule.

Christ? Did I just say that?

Do I have confidence in who I am?

Do people hate me now because I'm proud of WHO I AM?

Does it matter? Not to me, certainly.

You want to fix the elections? Go ahead, and ruin the standard of inspiring and excellent people who actually are notables, and yes, that DOES include Sniper. I've NEVER seen you write anything that's remotely better than so many people on here, and I just wish and hope that one day, perhaps, you'll realise that this is, after all, just a forum, which people come on, write a load of crap, and then go to bed.

Life sucks dude. Spend your time wisely, and make sure you keep running, but whatever you do, never take yourself seriously, because someone else out there will smack you in the face.

To the rest of you, the notables, and all the others that should be, monkey_man, ssxpro, YH, Venom, Stryke... you know who you are because you rule, and it's about time you knew it. The reason the forums are becoming increasingly dull to post on, is because NOBODY is inspired by anything anymore, because we're all flattened to the floor by crappy Gamecube vs XBox topics. Don't get fed up and leave... the crap ones will ALWAYS be here, and we have to accept that, but we can shout louder and prouder than they can, and it only takes a few moments of our time to do so.

I thank you for all the stories, I thank you for the tales about your cats, and I thank you so much for what everyone else seems to think is spam, but it's not, it's entertainment, and that's what we should be about.

Sorry for the speech my darlings, but I'm feeling pretty damn good about myself at the moment. I've gone through too much crap to just sit back and watch the morons of the world get their say while everyone else has to sit back and watch.

You think the forums suck? Then let's start trying to entertain people. It doesn't take a genius to figure out we don't want to hear about the best controllers to use... think! What would put a smile on your face to see?

I don't care what it is... write a story, it doesn't have to be fictional... it could be something that happened to you. Tell us more about yourself, tell us that you've fallen in love, tell us that you saw a cloud that looked like a monkey... WE'RE INTERESTED! Honestly! Half the time it's getting the confidence to trust your feelings... just because everyone else writes about consoles DOESN'T mean you have to!

We are here only when you switch on your computer... We're just people on a forum, we have our lives, and we don't spend them doing nothing, I'm sure! For God's sake, go and entertain someone!

And that goes double for you, Venombyte. :0)

Yeah, just hope no one threatens to ban you for them though!

Damnit, you're right.

I am not sorry for anything I've ever done ever. Even what my brain's done.

Just wish now I had the courage to quit school and work on me gaming stuff 24/7.

No man, don't apologise for being honest and expressing your feelings.

The moment you start to censor yourself is the moment that you give in to mediocrity and banality and surrender yourself to the quagmire that so many people sink under.

Don't for one single second start to second guess yourself or wonder "Did I do the right thing?" because then you'll spend forever worrying and before you know it, time has gone and you're too late.

I'm aware of how I'm sounding, but I've just finished reading American Scream, and the one thing that comes through time and time again?

Be yourself, habe absolute faith in your actions and thoughts, because you never ever know when you'll run out of time and you have to be able to look back and know that you did everything you could, said everything you wanted to when you had the chance to.

Still have the urge to say sorry again for starting this off, stuff gets to me every now and again.

Sorry.

Agreed. I don't like having this open mind, I hardly get the urge to argue with anyone any more.

I got voted without asking anyone.
That means that some people (more fool them!) thought that I should be a notable.

And I made it perfectly clear that I would act in no way different, and I don't.

I didn't read a lot of posts before I became gold and lovely and I still don't.
Why?

Let's be honest here, because our very lives depend on honesty at all times:

Some posts aren't worth the time and I want those valuable seconds back I wasted.
But, at the same time, I don't claim to be any better.
I'm well aware of the general state of my own posts, and nobody is quicker to laugh at me than myself.

However, by the same token, there are posters that I absolutely refuse to read - for the simple fact that it's a waste of time and effort.
Not everyone, to be honest there are very few people I avoid, but I can't lie.
Some posters make me wonder if Darwin got it right after all.
Myself included.

Illiterate, pointless posts rehashing the same old tired rubbish about if Nintendo will beat this-console or which console is better and blah blah blah.
That's why I post 99% utter phony news and pointless jokes, because there are better things in life to get heated about than a computer console.

And, whilst we're having the light of honesty shined bright here, what is the average age of the posters here?
15, 16?
I'm 28 and the idea of getting involved in a discussion about something like the benefits of religion with people that aren't old enough to remember when Thatcher came to power is not thrilling to me.

Which is why I post lame jokes and rubbish, because life should not be taken seriously at all.
It's just something there to have fun with. C'mon people, you only get a few years before you die.
Don't waste them caring one little bit about notable elections or who-said-what-to-who or which console is better.
They're all crap, they're all excellent.

Just do what you want for fun and let the next person do what they want.
Stop trying to change someone's mind about something, just get on with your own life and let that person worry about theirs.
So what if X doesn't believe in god, so what if Y doesn't like the Gamecube.
Who cares?

Everyone please, calm down and realise that there are things that matter and things that don't.
Notable elections don't matter, just as pop idols doesn't matter, just as how many polygons the next console will have doesn't matter.

Friends,loved ones, being creative and letting your neighbour do what he wants matters.

Just relaaaaaax and go listen to some music.

You punks
