Describe how bodybuilding forum/internet negativity has affected your life...

This is the main purpose of this forum, negativity. That's why I keep coming back, it's the best spiritual teacher there is.

LOL, "Where do I start?"

Meeting with a rather soft spoken but very large someone this past Friday made me realize (once again) how disruptive the negativity on the internet can be...

Through the years I've posted on various forums; cars, tech, conspiracy theories, planes even stormfront (curiosity) etc...

Never any of them got any close to bodybuilding forums when it comes to drama & hatred... my theory is bb attracts insecurity, display of attention, jealousy; after-all, the state in which ones body is,  very personal; often the willingness to change what he/she doesn't like is strictly based on insecurity, loaded with emotions... 

Discuss...

In my "real life" I don't know many, if any, negative, trash talking people. Sometimes, it is interesting to see how the otherside disfunctions. Other times, these ridiculous posts are just plain annoying. When I get to feeling this way, I spend my time on other more positive endeavors.

I hope most of the crap posters here and elsewhere are different in their offline lives....well, I hope they have different offline lives or some life besides what they display in these forums. Otherwise, they are really sad, negative and depressing.

LOL!!!! Welcome back McJeff....  hope you're staying Falkantive

[Palpatine Q]

I wouldn't blame you for leaving

this place is really turning to a meeting ground for really boring trolls to meet and spam this place with horrible posts

I'd name names but why bother....the shitty posters are well aware that they suck

Yup.

When I first started posting here ten years ago I was a guy in his thirties and this place was a LOT different.

Over time what's happened is the gimmicks aren't even creative or funny anymore...they know they are gimmicks so they just post dumb shit...with the objective being to waste bandwidth,  I guess.

And now as a guy in his forties instead of his thirties it just seems so boring and stupid to me. No one ever has anything good to say...and if You own somebody fair and square they "dig" for personal info because they are sore loser little bitches.

you don't know anybody that likes to bust balls?

getbig is just more blunt

in real life people say shit with a smile on their face when they try to get under your skin, or under the disguise of sarcasm

they say "i'm just kidding bro" as if they weren't trying to offend you

Alex23: i know an IFBB pro. He decided to stop by the forums here for a little while. He said Getbig was so negative and depressing that he decided to never come back. He could not believe how negative the people here were.

So he was trying to supress his reality and get big wouldn't allow for that?

Alex23, ask this guy how the internet affected his life:

    

[no one]

dear alex23,

YOU are singlehandedly responsible for the demise of this forum. this thread is a perfect example of your bi polar, attention seeking bullshit. you ruin it with your drama, with your 'outings' with your 'gimmicks'.

what is it in your life that sucks so badly you need a internet forum for attention? you've quit this place countless times, always to return- and the best part is nobody even missed you. your the biggest crybaby i have ever seen, but yet your supposed to be a grown man- even more proof of your stunted personality, like we needed it.

i honestly think you have a personality disorder of some nature, and obviously so do those you've met thru here- thats why they dont hang around with you any longer.

look around you alex- your 'real' life- how many good friendships do you have- id fucking bet not a whole lot. you marrried the sister of a guy you met online, your friends are all online friends and most of those you met online want nothing to do with you anymore for whatever reason.

you are the problem, fatboy. get some help. take some meds. do something for fucks sake. just quit trying so hard to fit in. you never will. your just a fucking weirdo.

lol

Alex23, ask this guy how the internet affected his life:

He was so excited. He thought he was gonna have a great birthday and instead ended up getting a seven year jail sentence ..

listen, grim- i know your sore at me for pointing out the stupidity you posted in that thread saying dennis newman's cancer was caused by steroids and too much protein damages your liver.

but does this mean your going to run around the board all butt-hurt looking to seek revenge on me? lol

if your going to say something, make it at least good.

and by the way- you are right it isnt a problem i have, cause unlike alex, i dont give a fuck about fitting in.

thanks for playing.

[Matt C]

Tell me about it!    If being with young girls is so important to these guys couldn't they just hire an 18 year old escort or something?

cause after i read your first bit of idiocy i wasnt about to go back and waste my time with whatever it was you'd have to say next. you'd already left an indelible impression on me as someone who has no clue what they are talking about.

see, some people on here when they have something to say i'll listen, ill keep checking their threads to see their replies, etc.

you are not one of those people.

i apologise if i have hurt your feelings.

No, you totally missed what was being said. But it's ok if you feel you owned me that's cool. I'll just go and start my own forum.
