There's a reason as to why nobody gives you any advice anymore.

[QUOTE=kalamari13;44177201]Why do so many of you say you give advice to me? Nobody here gives me advice anymore, its either just blatant ignoring or "omg we've discussed this before you never change" shit. All of you seem to have placed a false ego on me because i'm still all-ears. I'm still really eager to consume any advice I can as long as it's not the insulting kind.[/QUOTE] It's because the the dozens of time you DID need advice, you shot it down and danced around your own issues because it wasn't the perfect advice you wanted to hear, yet it was completely reasonable. You haven't changed one bit because you continue to plug your ears and do nothing about your problems when you easily could.

[QUOTE=Mysterious;44177200]You constantly play the victim even though we usually only know your side of the story. You say people are eager to attack you, yet you have no qualms about singling a person out and labeling him because of something arbitrary and doesn't affect you. You say we ignore all of your positive posts, yet you ignore any kind of rational advice given to you whenever you complain about any of your current issues. I'm pretty sure you have no grounds to judge us from that alone.[/QUOTE] An extreme minority here talks to me personally, despite most of this thread having me added to steam. I dont receive advice in this thread anymore. You guys don't offer advice any more. [I]You guys don't offer advice any more.[/I] [I][B]You guys don't offer advice any more.[/B][/I] I only receive insults and irrelevant contradictions. I would enjoy advice that leaves an impact on me, but all I feel that I receive is just a series of strangers rehashing the same argument from half a year ago because my ego taints every post of mine, regardless of content.

Jesus Christ shut up.

[QUOTE=kalamari13;44177238]Giving up is a sign of weakness.[/QUOTE] I dunno. I think people should stop defending themselves despite the odds. There's not point, don't you agree?

It's like the friendzone, except being the complete opposite. There are no ways out.

Guys, he just has a compulsion to need sympathy from people. He sees it as the easiest way to get attention (and then whines about other people's cries for attention lol).

So roll how's your morning so far?

I'm just saying, if from now on 100% of every future post of mine was positive happy rainbows and flowers, you guys would attack it or ignore it. I'm only defending myself because you guys have resolved to insults than continuing advice. I would really prefer continuing receiving helpful non-insulting non-namecalling advice. I dont want to be disliked, I understand that I have flaws yeah, but I dont want a bandwagon to occur against me, that isn't polite.

[editline]9th March 2014[/editline] Literally, if I posted under a different name and none of you guys didn't know it was ME, You guys would be desperately sympathizing with me trying to make me feel better. I hate when people give up on others just because they applied a little resistance. Resistance is often the most obvious call for help.

"You guys should keep giving me advice even when i basically tell you all to fuck off" -kalamari

So you know you're being resistant, yet never thought once that being resistant isn't going to get you anywhere if you need ANY help? Maybe trying to accept some of the help instead of pushing away every little suggestion that people throw at you isn't the best way to go about gauging a community for assistance? It's not our problem you push it away every chance you get. It's yours. You should stop thinking that you can do no wrong and stop playing the victim so much, and MAYBE people would tell you what you want to hear.

[QUOTE=Vilusia;44177303]"You guys should keep giving me advice even when i basically tell you all to fuck off" -kalamari[/QUOTE] Where have I told people to fuck off? My negative posts are basically "what do I do? please help?" posts and all I receive now is useless resistance which futhermore makes me feel like willingly fantasize about falling off high elevation onto cold hard pavement. You told me to fuck off like a dozen times as I pleaded with you to not block me, afterwards you call me a plethora of names for no reason. All I did was try to preserve our friendship and you treated me like a subhuman for simply expressing unbiased opinions.

I'm requesting that you all stop attacking my posts that aren't even supposed to start arguments. It seems that every time I have an opinion there's some dude that comes out of nowhere and says "FUCK, YOU NEVER CHANGE AND..." Even regarding neutral stuff like video games. [editline]9th March 2014[/editline] I work at a gas station. If I got robbed one day like reagy you guys would seriously attack me for being too whiny about it.

It's not about your opinions. It's about HOW you express them. You go around telling people how they SHOULD do this and SHOULDN'T do that, as if your way is the one and only way. And the last opinion you expressed before all this was basically calling out a single user because of a fetish and scrutinizing him for it, when he's changed since then has done nothing to provoke it since. [editline]9th March 2014[/editline] And all these "if I did this you guys would say this" scenarios don't matter to what's been said here. No one gives you the sympathy you badly want because these problems that you seem to always have are things that you yourself could fix, but choose not to. I've said my piece, and I hope you've been listening at least. So I'm going to bed. Night everyone!

Guys stop being so dang rude to each other. This is making me sad. :C

You sure did shit up this thread kalamari. Edit: I'll express my opinion with every single post he has on a seperate method tomorrow, it's 5 am now and I can't be arsed now.

Adobe Photoshop finally supports my new camera, I can get back into taking pictures, yay. Such a relief, I've been having to shoot jpg for months.

What's the difference between formats? What's wrong with jpg?

[QUOTE=Vilusia;44177594]What's the difference between formats? What's wrong with jpg?[/QUOTE] Jpeg is a compressed format. You lose precision and quality

[QUOTE=kaze4159;44177571]I always shoot .jpg, am I weird? Processing the raw photos takes a stupidly long time on my PC[/QUOTE] My camera makes lovely jpgs, best in the industry, but they don't carry to large amount of data beyond what would be 100% pure black and 100% pure white in jpg (aka high dynamic range (no I'm not talking about the thing in video games or that cheesy editing technique (I like multiple brackets))).

[QUOTE=Batmoutarde;44177599]Jpeg is a compressed format. You lose precision and quality[/QUOTE] And other important information photoshop could use with your photo as well.

Like, if you shot a shadowed subject while shooting towards, the sun, in jpg, the sky looking towards the sun would just be 100% white and a lot of the shows would be 100% black, but shooting raw means you have lots of detail where there wouldn't be any in jpg.

Huh, seems like Kalarmai exploded everywhere when I was playing a game of L4D2. Alright. [QUOTE=Batmoutarde;44177599]Jpeg is a compressed format. You lose precision and quality[/QUOTE] JPEG is alright if the image produced is something of high resolution with the compression on a very low setting.

All this talk of weird porn reminds me of a story, I was idly chatting on an IRC and i brought up the cool story of how i awkwardly found vore porn on a random HDD i salvaged. Except, i accidentally mentioned that i got a HDD full of gnarly digestion porn before mentioning that it was salvaged from a random computer and didn't belong to me. people kind of freaked out and i never went there again... The thought of the awkwardness makes me cringe to this very day.
