Should I stay or should I go?

I feel like I'm the butt-end of a lot of hostility on this forum and as I don't want to stay where I'm not welcome, I'm conducting this poll to gauge what people think of me. Should I stay or should I leave and never return? You be the judge. After awhile, I'll count the votes and accordingly either remain as an intermittent visitor, or vamoose never to return (this time, for good--Yoda can ban me if he wants!)

So give me the feedback and let's see what the outcome is.

From my end, I have enjoyed being a participant in this forum. The people here are pretty cool, for the most part, and I'm sorry I haven't gotten along with many of them. I've tried, but, as I am a working professional, I'm usually far too occupied with work to be more sociable. Anyway, here goes:

You said you were leaving so leave. Stop coming back and asking us if you should leave. Just do it already. Threads like this are so pointless. If you want to stay, stay. If you want to leave, leave. You keep saying your going, and then you're back. My guess is that you hope someone notices the fact that you're gone, no one does, and then you come back to remind us. Stop lurking and make up your own mind you attention seeking goon.

I'm not attention-seeking. All I wanted, originally, was to participate in the forum and pursue my own threads of discussion and discuss issues with others. I said I was going to leave awhile back, and did leave for awhile, because I was way too busy to participate regularly. I did say back then that I would return on and off. However, I see more and more people expressing their dislike for me and wanting me to leave. That's why I'm conducting this poll. If you want me to go for good, I'll leave, no questions asked. If the majority wants me to stay, I will continue to participate on and off. I'm just trying to gauge the public opinion of me. That's all.

So, in other words, you have saught out the attention of others to see if they like you? That is called attention seeking.

No, it's called conducting a poll!

But it is a self absorbed poll about you, you, you! If you want to stay you can stay! For the love of God!

Yeah, but I don't want to stay where I'm not welcome! If all I'm going to get here is a barrage of hostility, then I think it would be better for all concerned that I leave! That's why I'm conducting this poll--to gauge where I stand when it comes to public opinion.

WHATEVER.

YOU SAID IT!

What? This thread? Yes, 'tis quite. You? Yes 'yare.

Not really! Why don't you try and guess what I was referring to, since you're such a wise ass!

Stay Cool, and Stay Here

Remember when I said that it's ok for you to be passionate as long as you accept that others are just as passionate and may have views that are the polar opposite of yours?

Still holds true.

Now stop being such a f*cking drama queen and get back to convincing us that we are a bunch of heartless, right wing, neo conservative fascist pigs... I liked you better when you were in my face.


Oh and this holds zero water with me... I'm a working professional and I have a start up business on the side. Post what you want, when you can and stop reminding us how busy you are... everyone's busy.

Me mostly...

...what? I am!

I think I prefer the fascist pig...

What's the difference?

Not attention seeking? You posted a page-long introductory post that delved into your history with other message boards and devolved into a borderline personals ad at the end. I'm sorry, but Silver's hit the Django on the head in that regard.

As has Toose: your "lack of time" excuse doesn't wash. And, despite your claims, you never left. You just stopped posting for a (very) short while, opting to visit several times a day, instead. His "drama queen" comment was right on the mark, as well.

Do what you want. If you choose to stay, however, I recommend you develop a lot more emotional maturity AND open-mindedness, otherwise you'll continue to be met with the same sorts of responses.

Thirty years old like a fox...

Vote you off? It's not my style, but to post a thread like this you're either self-desructive or self-absorbed. None the less whether to stay or leave should be your own choice.

I shall become invulnerable to your data smog.
