Rifolli: Slym left the boards because he got tired of logging on and seeing the same name under every single post but with nothing relevant to add. It is not my place to really go into detail but he did let me know. Personally, I think it is loss to the boards. I liked Slym.

 

Ben, in all honestly, re-read that. Besides the fact that relevance has various degrees, and there is also subjectivity to take into account, all it takes to read relevant things is to look for them, and – inversely – as you see a conversation which has no value, all it takes is to leave it and move to other ones with content.

 

You know I like Slym too and appreciate his qualities, but he is too sensitive. His temper/character gives him a tendency to absolutize and to be drastic, and that is very dangerous as it also exposes you to the danger of judging people, not their actions.

 

As far as kav: it does not make sense, as much "annoying" a prolific poster may be, all you need to do is just move to another topic, or follow the ones you are interested in. And kav is a nice person too.

 

And as a side note: honestly, putting users on "ignore" is not such a great thing.

Yes, but my posts are full of awe and inspiration… lol

I don’t think it’s hate, I just hope he stops to be disheartened. Pride takes a million forms, but they are all harmful. (shrug)

Some people have no life and post a lot because that's the only interaction they get. Hating their guts for it, especially if you yourself post a lot, is odd. Slym left because he 'got tired of seeing the same name'-uh, his name appeared as much as mine....I could make the same 'relevance' charge about his posts...

Shadow: What happens is that things will move very very fast when it happens. I have seen a dozen offers go in an hour, I kid you not. On the flip side though, things come to a grinding halt from time to time. Dont give up on it. Especially since I want your original art. :grin:

Slym?

So when he was the top poster it was ok but when I became the top poster it was 'just awful' and he had to FDQ exit

I guess him constantly being a Debbie Downer and telling people what they should post was 'relevant' in his book....

 

I would love to know what FDQ moment you are referring to? He didnt say a word of drama. I was simply letting people know because they were worried something happened to him. Some would say it is not how much you post but when and what.

Im not for sure of exactly everything you said here. I like that Kav has to be a part of every conversation so much so that he assumes even this one is about him. :facepalm:

Care to address the part about him leaving like a FDQ because you became the top poster? I quoted you above in case you forgot. I keep looking but I am unable to find this exit you speak of anywhere.
