No dramatics. Just a goodbye. The big threads always get locked because of the actions of a few. All that has been said about me was unfair. But it doesn't matter. This is only a message board.

  • Are you bidding adieu to the message board? I'm afraid I don't pay much attention to the politics and drama on the board. I'm clueless.

    I read the Ophelia's Nun thread. Now I see what has happened. Without taking sides, I simply must say: 'tis a shame. Even if people are bothering one another, it's usually best to just leave each other be. In my opinion.

  • It really doesn't matter. Unfortunately for the trolls. They lost. I closed my own thread down. I was tired of it in some ways.
  • The thread isn't shut down yet. The mods may leave it alone. You never know.

  • I specifically asked them to via a Private Message. The only way you could open it is by deleting the offending posts and banning the trolls.

    i feel exactly the same way
  • Or we could devote a thread to poetic arguments! Have it out in poetry form.

    I still believe in poets´ hearts although many times on this forum I could´ve easily changed my mind. I know that nobody really cares but the reason I´ve joined this forum is because I was sure to find a group of people united by Pearl Jam´s music and poetry. I believed that everybody here understands what Ed and the boys are trying to say. Unfortunately too many people only hold on to the lines with swearwords and scandalous messages. Yes, this world needs to wake up but it doesn´t always have to be this way.
    We all need leaders to become leaders. He didn´t chose us, we chose him and asked for help. He wanted to leave once before but Kat and Sea asked him to stay; they didn´t ask me to stay and I know there were many good poets that have left and nobody cared. He has created countless works, always inspired by beautiful things that surround him and he tried to help us to do the same by introducing the ´games´. I rather play games than fight in battles. Nobody else could give so much love and compassion than him and there is no better example of true love than the unit of them two.
    Why so much hatred? And while we are putting it in words so many beautiful things have happened, so much material for a new creation but we´ve missed them all.
    I am celebrating this teacher because he´s learnt from the best (and still does) but I will continue exhaling only my words because this is what I´ve learnt from him.
    Write. Wind each new thought upon the stream;
    and in its contradiction of response,
    Or seeming stagnance, see that rippled gleam
    That might suggest true movement. If you sense
    a hidden wave in what seems blanket still,
    Write more, wind each desire, and you'll see
    The willows nod and rustle, and you will
    hear the rushing babble of the free
    gush of water, brimming, charged with light
    That is your reader's understanding heart.
  • Exhale...I feel what you're saying. These types of things are always disappointing. But, here is also a fact: they are inevitable. Utopias--even online ones--are impossible. Chalk it up to human nature--and try not to lament too long things which will happen again.
    .........................................................................
  • No one asked me to stay. If they did I wouldn't. Nice story but that's not the case.

    The experience is liberating and educational for me. I've written three new poems already! :D

    Although this is the Pearl Jam Message Pit poetry section, and not a poetry forum, there's been some great, worthy work produced here and those people can be proud of themselves.

    I'm not upset or bothered about this in the slightest. Most people are intelligent enough to realise that on a rock band website, there are a lot of people on here and that the focus is Pearl Jam's music and that this poetry section is like a million other poetry sections on a million other boards.

    I thought my thread was pretty insignificant in terms of the size of the Internet but I enjoyed reading other peoples' work on it.

    On a final note, and I mean final, I was incorrectly told that squallid has one 'l'. It has in the US. In the UK it has two. I would like to think I was tolerant of spelling variations around the world, tolerant of other posters, and keen to point out that those who are quick to criticise other people and their works are not qualified to do so and only show their negative, trolling nature for what it is.

    I don't mean to 'harrass' you.....hehehehehehe.....but squalid has only one L......unless you're a learner.....or a stoodent.......I used to be punctilious with my brother......he was so dumb......he would say.....'good riddles to bad rubbish'
    ....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......
  • It's two!! It's two!!! It's one and two!!! :)

    See you, ISN. Sorry about this. :) It was fun reading your exercises. You're really talented, you know.
  • ISNISN Posts: 1,700

  • Well, ISN. Consider this. Suede used to advertise his website on this board. Pasta asked me to visit it sometime. I finally did. Suede and Pasta were slagging me off on it so I complained in private to Pasta, who came on with Suede and trolled in public. Suede's attitude to people reading his site is inconsistent and, to be frank, he got caught moaning. So he banned me as a guest for reading (now called "lurking"), managed to mess up his site in the process and made the ridiculous claim I'd hacked his baord. That's the truth and everyone knows it.

    No, I won't stay.
  • ISNISN Posts: 1,700
    you will stay.....I DEMAND IT......

    you're a little dry sometimes....
    but I'm wet behind the ears....
    you're a little straight sometimes
    (but I am mean with ......)
    you're a little dusty....a little learned
    and a little high
    but I would rather have you round
    than see you say goodbye
    I think somethings bad
    about you when I'm really nasty
    but Finsbubble YOU'RE THE BEST....
    so don't go and be hasty
    (plus I bet you're really tasty)
    why don't we all FORGET
    what happened
    chalk it up to learning
    and DEMAND that finsbubble
    (the wise, and quite discerning)....
    STAY.....don't go away.....
    you'll break my little Heart (hehehehehehehe)
    who cares that Suede
    has you dissuaded....
    I paid my fee
    stay with us
    ....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......

    Fins this is my PM to you......but your mailbox is full.....so I'm posting it in public.....cos frankly I can't be arsed.....going through all the empty your mailbox pallaver......

    Richard,

    I want you to know.....that you are considered by most people in the poetry section to be exactly what you come across as.....somebody who knows his stuff.....and that your tutelage is valued......you are a great person......(a little dry perhaps)......I want you to know that I will do everything in my power to make you reconsider.....there's no reason for Suede and Pasta to gang up on you.....it's wrong.....I may disagree with you from time to time, or even have a nasty thought about you......but generally, I think you are one of the only reasons I'm here......and I consider you to be a really great person.....so please don't go......

    Cath

    This is exceedingly sad and terrible. Truly it is. After the horrible things that have happened in the world this last week I just cannot fathom how people could choose to be mean and petty. And it's also a terrible shame that people cannot acknowledge true talent in others and rejoice in it. We would should rejoice in others' gifts as well as our own! We should feel glad and blessed when someone has a beautiful gift. Tis sad when jealousy and pettiness win out and overwhelm and hurt sensitive people. Shame on those who choose the path of ugliness.
