[QUOTE=johnlmonkey;35831925]I've seen them hate on random people just for being new. I've gotten hate for the silliest things in GMF but again, you just have to accept it for what it is.[/QUOTE] you know how things are subjective yeah

[QUOTE=Dubious George;35832008]you know how things are subjective yeah[/QUOTE] it's like the fat kid at school who thinks he gets bullied for being fat no, him being fat is just an excuse to bully him because he's an annoying retard

no because you wank off to 2d cartoons of ponies that is the quality of one's character

And I do believe you have business in the GMF.

While there is a huge amount of idiots in GMF, all that talk about hating on new users is not really true As it have been said don't act like an idiot (or boast with your new shiny gold username) and you will not be hated There is an exception though, everyone in GMF [I]hates[/I] bronies

Furries, weeaboos, and the like.

Stop making such a big deal about it, jesus.

So please, enlighten me.[/QUOTE] [quote] A BDA Guide to Common Social Sense, subtitled, "Why Does the GMF Pick On Us Poor Noobies, When We Just Desperately Want to Fit In?!" The reason the Gold Member Forum seems so inhospitable to new members is because of the fact that so many of the boostar golds introduce themselves as if they're in some hot-shit new club, and and so immediately try to start acting like they're "one of da boyz." The first couple of posts will read like they should be filled with winks and elbow nudges as the new gold member tries to establish himself in the social hierarchy as a flippin' hilarious new bloke, but they quickly dissolve into angry, defensive shitposts as they realize that their plan is totally back-firing. From there, it's usually a pretty slippery slope, because hardly anybody quits while they're ahead. The best way to "fit in" with the goldmember forum is to not treat it like it's any other forum. If you've got something to contribute, post. If not? Don't. If you totally botch things up by trying to make a grand entrance, everybody's gonna think you're a ponce, but even then you're okay as long as don't continue to act as such. That's where the perceived dislike for cash4gold users comes from. Nobody should even have to say this stuff, because it's just common social sense, but it still seems to give an awful lot of boostars a hard time.[/quote] you should be able to discern what it is/isn't from that. If you can't, then maybe you shouldn't go to the GMF at all until you do. I'm not going to explain because now it's just spamming the thread when it should be for questions and not pointless debates and arguments.

And from what I've observed in the GMF today alone pretty much disproves all of what BDA said. Do new golds make complete asses of themselves? Yes. But there are a great deal of ordinary posters who come into the GMF and get told to kill themselves. That guide does not apply to what I said earlier, at all. Its shitpost central, and whoever says "Oh, its not a bad place" is just fooling themselves. But yes, unless someone else would like to explain to me why the GMF isn't a steaming pile of circlejerking shit, I'll stop now.

[QUOTE=CheeseMan;35832767]Lemme guess, you think that Fast Threads is filled with great threads and posters don't you?[/QUOTE] No I don't. Its one of my least favorite sections. But I haven't really seen people telling eachother to kill themselves the moment someone posts. Its less "Oh we're such a refined group" and more "lets act like middle school children".

holy shit do you really care that much

Why the fuck are Ryu-Gi and Lankist unbanned?

Are those new Boostar prices permanent, or will they revert to their regular prices sometime in the future?

[QUOTE=Killuah;35832876]Why the fuck are Ryu-Gi and Lankist unbanned?[/QUOTE] Lankist has been unbanned since forever. I don't think anybody thought his perma was fair anyway. Dunno why Ryu is back.

[QUOTE=DTkach;35832792][img]http://www.facepunch.com/avatar/70461.png?garryis=awesome[/img][/QUOTE] lol fucking hell give it a rest already

I'm an annoying sarcastic cunt in real life, so me and the GMF don't get on well together. We separated about a year ago and we're generally happier living apart. I say hi sometimes, but she usually just slaps me in the face for being annoying. It was just one of those things that was never to be.

[QUOTE=postal;35832981]lol fucking hell give it a rest already[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=douche beat;35832819]holy shit do you really care that much[/QUOTE] I don't. I don't post in the section, nor do I care what goes on there. But when people come into this thread going "Oh, the GMF isn't bad! Its a wonderful place, you're just doing it wrong", its irritating as hell. Its ok if it was a joke, but if they are serious? Are you fucking kidding me? I stated my opinion, people responded. I am responding to those. That is how a conversation works, after all.

You know DTkach it's quite funny how you protect new golds while you yourself made a couple of posts laughing at blues buying gold For example: [URL]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1104511?p=30932805&viewfull=1#post30932805[/URL] [editline]5th May 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=DTkach;35832792]No I don't.

I believe, and have always believed, buying gold was stupid, especially considering my opinion of the place it gives access to. What I've been arguing is that GMF isn't happy sunshine place even if you didn't buy gold/are new to gold in general. And no, I'm pretty sure I have a few thousand posts in General Games.

Yes ok we get it DTKach you don't like the GMF. Now give it a rest already, this is a thread for people to ask us questions about the forums, not rant about how much you hate certain subforums for several pages.

ryu ryu ryu ryu gi, people think you're creepy, and I agree.

[QUOTE=Killuah;35832876]Why the fuck are Ryu-Gi and Lankist unbanned?[/QUOTE] lankist was unbanned like forever ago why are you just bringing it up and he isn't even comparable to ryu gi imo

This thread turns into a place where people rant about the GMF every month or so.
