Kayriss Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 (edited) In a coma is back up - though it's seen better days. Sounds like our guy is hurtin' - wish him all the best. -what's this proposal? And how do we get involved with this new site? Edited January 14, 2005 by Kayriss
a girl called catastrophe Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 has anyone been able to get to the "discuss" forum (the one linked on mblog)? it shows up as "not found" for me.....weird.
Crusader Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 It was deleted because people were trolling.
a girl called catastrophe Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 It was deleted because people were trolling. once again i'm going to ask a stupid question (this isnt a good day for me), but please define "trolling".... ;)
Crusader Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 http://www.matthewgood.org/mblog/ Though he hasn't linked to it. I don't suggest commenting until he brings it back up. edit: trolling = spamming, being an ass, etc.
Biggie Posted January 14, 2005 Author Posted January 14, 2005 Neither site is working for me. What addresses are you going to?
OWJeeves Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 this is all just getting incredibly pathetic. so much drama and nonsense over a fucking journal. if he keeps it, good for him, if he doesn't, big deal. does seeing a picture of him with a moustache really make your day or something? get a grip.
Nolan Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 People just really need to lay the hell off him. Somehow criticizing and arguing with Matt has become the "cool" thing to do.
Crusader Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 Pav, they can talk about whatever they want.
OWJeeves Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 (edited) I wasn't referring to anything specific in this thread, had I been I would've quoted it. pay attention, kiddo. edit: Why is it that the more valuable individuals in our society seem to suffer the most? I hope to god that's sarcasm. Edited January 14, 2005 by pavan
Kayriss Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 I'm going to have to agree, I don't see how seeing him with a mustache is going to make my life any better, knowing what a pain in the ass we're causing a very sick man. Cheers if he continues, but christ knows why he would. If I were him (and, i'm not) the new matt good site would probably be: Bio Pics Tour Media A read-only blog or some sort.Maybe.
C-Bacon Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 I saw his post to Mighty Merk, and although his argument was very flawed, Matt really didn't handle it well. He rebutted his points, then stated that he had no respect for the said poster and considered the topic "closed". I'm not surprised he was chastised for handling it that way when he could have easily made his points and let it go. He lets small things like that get to him too often.
a girl called catastrophe Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 the problem is that matt gets these "small" criticisms and attacks too often....and i dont blame him for getting upset. if every time i opened my email i had a hundred emails attacking me and my opinions, i think i would be a little touchy too......just something to consider.
C-Bacon Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 (edited) Indeed, but he has the option to simply delete and move on. But when he provides a forum for disussion, there's going to be differing opinions. If he can't handle having a few nut-cases that he could continuosly disprove, or simply ignore and let others argue, then whats the point of putting a board up in the first place? And to my knowledge, there were no personal attacks against him on the board. Edited January 14, 2005 by C-Bacon
Crusader Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 When I looked in earlier I saw a thread with some naked chick in it. You know, the kind of posts people just make to spite him. There were a few those I believe.
C-Bacon Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 Well, thats a different story then. There's always a problem with weeding out the shit disturbers. That's what moderators are for.
a girl called catastrophe Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 valid point. i dont really understand why he doesnt just ignore the people who oppose him. do people write posts like the one that lead to his blow up just to see what he will do? i havent read those specific posts so i guess this is a more general question about people who continually argue with him. just so its clear, i'm in no way saying that people dont have a right to express their opinions.
Crusader Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 It's tough finding good moderators (and people who're online at odd times).
MakesYouAWeapon Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 That thread was made once it became obvious that Matt was done with the board. There was a good debate, but when Matt said he didn't want to debate it seemed like 8-10 whackos came out of the woodwork in order to just frustrate the situation. Much of the thread was spent proposing homoerotic encounters and the swapping of phone numbers. Oh yeah, Matt posted his phone number supposedly. That was dumb, if it was really his (it's a BC number in any case). Ugh, I didn't even get a chance to see the naked chicks. ;)
