Too wild

Mark G, Friday, 10 August 2018 06:58 (seven years ago)

personally solipsistic wankery is why i'm on message boards

princess of hell (BradNelson), Friday, 10 August 2018 07:10 (seven years ago)

i generally only make song/album/artist threads when their momentum seems to have escalated beyond devoted genre threads or which would seem to appeal to more than the narrow band of ppl who keep up with a rolling thread (see: new foxing record), so far this has worked out fine

princess of hell (BradNelson), Friday, 10 August 2018 07:23 (seven years ago)

oh and especially if the artist/album doesn't settle easily into a genre thread

princess of hell (BradNelson), Friday, 10 August 2018 07:29 (seven years ago)

just keeping up the ilm convo to annoy deems at this point

princess of hell (BradNelson), Friday, 10 August 2018 07:30 (seven years ago)

hey its all energy right

me? most people who actually want to share something rather than solipsistically wank?

Just because people aren't responding doesn't mean they aren't listening and engaging, but I'm much more likely to engage with something when someone's actually chosen to single it out rather than putting it as a Youtube link in a thread with literally hundreds of others.

80% of my posts are the last in the thread. I'm just that boring!

I feel your pain (though experience suggests that this a manifestation of my real life).

djh, Friday, 10 August 2018 10:36 (seven years ago)

I used to be a thread starter - twisted thread starter..

This sort of thing: “It obviously degrades my profession and hypnotism when it is used for crime.” and how popular they were, ahem...

I checked, and so far this year I have started ... three!

Mark G, Friday, 10 August 2018 11:47 (seven years ago)

aw that shouldve developed tbf

How ILX makes me quiver
How ILX makes me smile
With all this love I have to give ILX
I guess I'm gonna stay with ILX a while

Mookie I sent you an apology in the other thread

Hope you’re okay

To clarify I was bragging

Evan, Friday, 10 August 2018 15:02 (seven years ago)

there are a few posters acting like dicks lately and i don't always remember them doing so?

marcos, Friday, 10 August 2018 16:02 (seven years ago)

maybe they always were idk

marcos, Friday, 10 August 2018 16:02 (seven years ago)

say who and i can tell you

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 10 August 2018 16:04 (seven years ago)

ive been a dick lately - time to take accountability for that and be way more aware

dj screwed (Ross), Friday, 10 August 2018 16:07 (seven years ago)

there was briefly a trend i noticed recently where longtime posters who never made an impression one way or another suddenly turned into attention-begging creeps but afaict they were either banned or left of their own accord.

omar little, Friday, 10 August 2018 16:08 (seven years ago)

Nah, I'm still here.

Funkface LLC (Old Lunch), Friday, 10 August 2018 16:10 (seven years ago)

JK above by the way djh- I definitely know how it feels to struggle with the fear that others don't find you all that interesting. I was much more sensitive about that in the past.

Evan, Friday, 10 August 2018 16:11 (seven years ago)

you can't see people quietly nodding on the internet

mh, Friday, 10 August 2018 19:08 (seven years ago)

incidentally, this shit right here is why people leave. I write a review on an entirely different website, which is a thing I do, because I write about music, and am immediately branded a troll, because I don't like a song.

the 1975

aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Thursday, 16 August 2018 20:53 (seven years ago)

fwiw there's never any point in engaging with deej, but particularly when he does the four-consecutive-complaining-posts thing

also recommended to ignore whiney when he starts posting images

mookieproof, Friday, 17 August 2018 00:35 (seven years ago)

kind of hard not to engage when you are dragged into a thread by name, unsolicited

aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Friday, 17 August 2018 00:48 (seven years ago)

yeah. sorry

mookieproof, Friday, 17 August 2018 01:04 (seven years ago)

There are not enough eye roll emojis in the world

Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:05 (seven years ago)

I’m actually starting to think Katherine really is a troll, tjeway shes repeating this IMMEDIATELY IM BRANDED A TROLL overreaction to k3vin being butthurt someone didn’t like his favorite band

Like an instant later jordan defended you & literally everyone else in that thread said you’re not a troll

I do think you’re being a tremendous baby though

Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:07 (seven years ago)

for fuck’s sake can you please stop

aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:07 (seven years ago)

You’re the one who “dragged this” conversation into a third thread or whatever

Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:07 (seven years ago)

please leave me the fuck alone

aloha darkness my old friend (katherine), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:08 (seven years ago)

Happily

Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:10 (seven years ago)

That means "stop responding"

fuck the NRA (Neanderthal), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:20 (seven years ago)

Thanks for the advice no one asked for

Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:22 (seven years ago)

But that someone needed.

A is for (Aimless), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:23 (seven years ago)

Lol flag post me then u wuss

Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:25 (seven years ago)

I said I’d stop responding to her but I’m happy to waste your time

Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:26 (seven years ago)

request granted

A is for (Aimless), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:29 (seven years ago)

I do think you’re being a tremendous baby though

― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40)

holy fuck are you serious

morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:36 (seven years ago)

He’s always serious

Οὖτις, Friday, 17 August 2018 01:42 (seven years ago)

but never mad

mookieproof, Friday, 17 August 2018 01:46 (seven years ago)

Is this the guy who shits up ILM for everyone all the time?

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:46 (seven years ago)

I’m serious that I think complaining across three threads that ilx has branded you a troll because k3v said ppl who don’t like the 1975 are trolling is OC

Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:46 (seven years ago)

Leave your spergy beefs over there man. We dont care.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:46 (seven years ago)

Mmmm Mongolian beef

faculty w1fe (silby), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:47 (seven years ago)

Wait fuck delete

faculty w1fe (silby), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:47 (seven years ago)

I thought she wanted to be left alone though, maybe you guys should drop it ? Taking me to ilx court for high crimes of arguing on ilx is probably not worth your time

Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Friday, 17 August 2018 01:47 (seven years ago)

The ppl who hop in these threads to pile on me for being a terrible poster but never engage in 90% of the threads I participate in are def my favorite part of ilx ... never change... mookieproof?
