So, do I belong here or not?
 
Well, I realize I'm being hassled by exactly one person as noted from this quote here...

I did come back with the hope that Exo's edict would make a difference and, to an extent, it has. Still, I didn't come back here to receive abuse. I simply wanted to enjoy the musical discussions and, frankly, I do think I contribute some here, maybe not as much as Trollheart, obviously, but I thought I carried my share.


So I guess the question is do I really contribute here or am I just a waste of time? I will keep the poll up for a week while I take a sabbatical (meaning no posts or MB Classics). If, when I return, I see that more people than not do not want me here, then I'll be happy to leave. After all I don't want to contaminate this post with uneducated posts without any musical contributions.

See you all in a week (maybe)

Stop being such a drama queen.

Frownland 07-22-2018 11:59 AM

You're either under or overthinking this.

Q: Do I belong here?
A: Ask yourself if you like it here. If you do, then stay. If you don't, then leave/lurk/become less active, whatever works for you.

Cool? Cool.

simplephysics 07-22-2018 11:59 AM

Jeesh it’s not a private club.

WWWP 07-22-2018 12:02 PM

I agree with Chris.

If you're being hassled just ignore him mate.

YorkeDaddy 07-22-2018 12:16 PM

Also agree with Chris. One bad apple don't spoil the whole bunch.

rostasi 07-22-2018 12:50 PM

Nobody belongs here.

Lucem Ferre 07-22-2018 12:57 PM

Does anything really belong anywhere? If you do belong, great, then stay.

If you don't belong then bring some chaos to the world by going against what it tells you to do. Or something.

Don't take this the wrong way, but I think you've got a history of taking a lot of things too personally and seriously in here. I can guarantee you that 95-100% of the flack you're catching is just the same rude style of "friendly hassling" that everyone is getting. Just view it as a roast that lasts all day, every day and you'll be fine.

I don't think anyone has anything actually against you.

Just chill out and let it slide off you. Or fire back. Either way, it's nothing personal.

But it's up to you if you feel like you can get along with the atmosphere in here or not. It's less the local literature club and more a night with your drunken buddies.

Oriphiel 07-22-2018 01:46 PM

Don't understand why Rubber is upset. I can't even get hard anymore unless I think someone on the internet hates me.

So where does this rank in the all-time pantheon of MusicBanter sad meltdowns where a random user cries out for attention on a ****ing internet forum?

I mean it’s gotta be in the top 5

Voted yes as you contribute to the threads. Bants aside I enjoyed the World Cup contributions too.

YD is making me laugh though :D

And rightfully so.

Sorry, Ki but Roxy, Chula, SoulFlower, and Mord are all stiff competition

YorkeDaddy 07-22-2018 02:15 PM

Damn how could i forget my girl SOULFLOWER! When my great grandkids come ask me about the greatest meltdowns in internet history I will still be telling her story

Ah. So he's dead then. Good.

RS, **** whoever has a problem with you. Well, not literally obviously. As you say yourself, it's one person. There's the Ignore button you can use if you really want to, but my advice is to just not pay any attention to what he, or anyone else that bugs you, says. Eventually, if they push it, they'll get a warning or a ban, so just play the long game, give 'em enough rope (hopefully that's not seen as a racist comment these days) and sit back.

If [said party] causes you to leave due to trolling then I will withdraw my participation on this forum even more than I have done in the past.

Just so we’re clear on what he’s so mad about:

1. I thought he was making very insensitive and prejudiced comments about black people in the hip hop thread
2. He laughed it off and explained it was because he’s old and everybody gets racist when they get old (wtf)
3. He continued to make comments in other threads laughing it off as if he had won that discussion and earned himself a moral high ground
4. I posted a frustrated ribbing at him for continuing to do so in such an arrogant manner

Now he posted this.

That is the entire story. He wasn’t trolled into leaving, he provoked people with obnoxious racism and joked about it when confronted. Good ****ing riddance

simplephysics 07-22-2018 03:42 PM

Someone for real turned the drama up to 11 around here.

Cuthbert 07-22-2018 03:43 PM

I'm enjoying the thread.

Key 07-22-2018 03:55 PM

More **** happens here than in the Trump administration.

The Batlord 07-22-2018 03:56 PM

I suppose it's a bit hypocritical to tell someone not to be a drama queen on Music Banter.

I did, it’s slowly and painfully digesting

Janszoon 07-22-2018 05:06 PM

Of course you belong here, Rubber Soul. Stick around!

Neapolitan 07-22-2018 05:11 PM

Rubber Soul has the perfect come-back but never uses it.
[said member] insults Rubber Soul calls him racists or whatever.
Rubber Soul: "I'm Rubber Soul and you're glue. Whatever you say bounces off of me and sticks to you."
/end of heated and contentious discourse.
