HM forum suckers

20 September 2007, 8:53 pm. View comments. Filed under Internet, Rants.

One of my regular forum-hangouts: Happymapling.net. It's really a place controlled by power-hungry, up-themselves and arrogant bumming moderators with no life. I used to be obsessed with MapleStory and now that I've made friends there, I'm not quitting for the suckers, I'll just top my blog's Rants category even more. (I was going to refrain from making another rant post but Belinda said I should rant more.)

'Pho': How to be attractive to the opposite sex

Perfectly self-explanatory:

"Be yourself" doesn't work. Yourself isn't what girls want. If it is then you wouldn't have any problems. What they want is money and looks. They can lie to us and themselves all they want. In the end, the guy that looks like Brad Pitt that drives the Ferrari is going to get the chicks.

Ever wonder how girls can somehow manage to get with the one guy that abuses her? Because they are biologically attracted to guys with money and good looks. Those same guys are general the type to abuse people as well. You don't get the good job by bending over. You have to be the pusher.

Since the majority of my blog visitors are female (at least I think they're female), I can sort of expect comments against 'Pho''s theory. Making generalisations like that is bad, boy, bad.

Holandica: ZOMG off-topic! SPAM!!!

It was just a normal sunny day in a normal thread...

dr zeik: Summa's going guy hunting tomorrow. I r teh convinsar!
zedex: ...

That sounded perfectly normal to me in a chat-type sort of "General Discussions" topic but in comes a twenty-year-old someone with too much authority on his hands lacking people to enforce his powers upon...

Holandica: SPAM

(and since HM bans spammers, someone had to defend himself)

zedex: i was replying to the previous post... it meant for speechless. but typing out speechless would have a different meaning
Holandica: then you could have said: "Im speechless I don't know what to say now ... elephants are pink WOOT F666 o.O"

This twenty-year-old must've wasted twenty years to not learn that conciseness was a virtue.

DaMirrorLink: Programmer-Wannabe

The forum was recently restored to a previous state a while ago. Of course, some of the new posts were not backed-up in the back-up used for restoration so these posts went missing.

MySQL got rolled back, thats all

Firstly, other people on this forum aren't going to understand what MySQL means. He just likes acting cool and smart since he wants to be a programmer in the future. Well unfortunately, I know that MySQL is a database management system using Structured Query Language so you can now tell me what "rolling back" such a system means. This is exactly like one of those little "web designers" that makes comments such as "Your CSS looks so cool!" (That might really be just my own problem.)

I'm not this mean and picky all the time. I finished my last test of this round of tests last night, which went extremely well, but now I have essays and assignments and more essays and more assignments. Ranting is good for health, guys.

    Hey Pho. Some chicks dig decent dicks...but as you're obviously tiny (with your EGO making up for the lack of size), you're never gonna get a girl.

    Many regards,

    Amanda

    How did he have time to post at the forums with all those chicks to look after? He talks and hands out advices like he was a pro - But since when is that a good thing?

    I hope your forum will get rid of some of the new bad seeds and somewhat return to it's former self - but that almost never happens so enjoy while you can.

    I like good looking rich guys, but unless they have something intelligent to say I'm not going to spare them more than 3 seconds (if that much).

    As for the programmer wannabe type... it sounded perfectly fine to me (ok so I am a programmer). SQL server (dunno about ysql) has a command which you can use when dealing with transactions. You use rollback when a transaction could only be completed partially (eg power outage in the middle of it), so you restore the database to the form it had before the transaction has been started.
    So yeah, I guess it can make sense written like that.

    Yay, more ranting. :P When I was into Maple Story, I mostly hung around the (also pretty big) sleepwood forum. Some dicky people there too.

    That Pho guy sounds like an absolute dick. Ugh.

    @Vera: I don't know. I looked up the ROLLBACK command in MySQL and it does rollback for transactions but you don't actually rollback "MySQL" so-to-speak. Perhaps it sounds vague but it's just like how "Your styles look so cool!" as opposed to "Your CSS looks so cool!" Though, it was more the whole... Everyone already concluded that the past data had been restored and he butts in saying "MySQL got rolled back" while the rest of the people on the forum wouldn't have a clue what in the world MySQL is.

    Ah, Pho's theory is crap! Well, I think Pho is an idiot. Ptfff. Being liked for being yourself is the best thing, isn't it?

    And they should say something easy to understand. Because, I know loads of people who don't have a clue about what SQL is, and obviously they won't bother to look it up too.

    LOL... you really posted it wow... hahaha

    nice comments...

    but it's still a nice place with a "nice" community other than a few people...

    DaMirrorLink also spazzed out because Amelia said Wii Sucks (claiming her own opinion) and he was complaining how she "hates everything that breathes"... i think he just can't accept others' opinions

    @Zala: you have to laugh at that "biologically attracted to guys with money and good looks." Lol.

    @Summa: Hey I was getting angry for you too! You should feel touched. :) But I agree, it's still a somewhat nice place except for a few twits and twats here and there. But it wouldn't be nice anymore if one of the moderators bans me now.

    Is "Pho" for serious? Well, it is quite obvious that he never has had a girl and from the looks of it, never will. Yeah, he must know that girls are biologically attracted to dick heads. I mean that's why he's giving advice, right?

    And I know I'm taking his words maybe a bit too literally, but Brad Pitt is UGLY. He is not good-looking.

    So overall, this Pho dude has no idea what he is talking about!

    Love how yall talk about us behind our backs, grow some ****ing balls and confront us next time.

    If I come off maddish, good, thats what I wanted, cause Rilz, this puts a new aspect of personality towards you.

    Also, the MySQL did rollback because Star was late with payment for the site with GoDaddy.

    So shut your trap next time you don't know what the hell you are talking about.

    @DML: Then please explain to us people who "don't know what the hell we are talking about" what rolling back a MySQL database is. Because, if you know what it is so well, you should be able to explain it so that we will understand.

    The idea of talking behind people's back is for them not to know about it because you are too cowardly to say it to their face.


    I laugh at pitiful fools.

    LOL.

    @LAWL: If you had the guts you'd flame me on the forum and not post with a ridiculously anonymous name on my blog. And also, if you do spend the time digging through all my posts, you'd realise that I did speak to you/them in their face. This is just a nice sum-up because I'm nice that way. :)

    I can't believe that Pho guy... I just learned from him that woman are BIOLOGICALLY attracted to things like money. Maybe he should spread money smelling perfume on to see if "the chicks" get all over him.

    He is obviously attracted only to beautiful rich girls that ignore him, and that's why he think that all girls think the way he does (but vice versa, with guys).

    One last thought, he must be an ugly f*ck.

    You know, I highly doubt if any male actually knows what attracts females to them. Just like no female know what attracts males to them. Because it is different for each person.

    As for the forum rant, Rilla. That is why I don't belong to forums & why TWD doesn't have one.

    @Skye, simple, when a host refurbishes the webspace or a payment is late or spambots, etc. there is an option to upload a previous version of the MySQL to the webspace, thus rolling it back, iStar was late with payment to GoDaddy for webhosting, so they simply rolled the forum and website back to August 28th.

    what the fuck do you think rollback means? its the means of going back to a different version, restoring a backup and rollback is the same fucking thing you idiot

    So you must feel like quite a big thing...

    !NEWSFLASH! your not!

    your quoting are sometimes even just half of it you don't even do it compleet

    Ohw I have not warned her for it I just gave my opion and the fun thing is that it can be solved inside hm.net only some people don't think before they post.

    PS yes im talking about you

  30. Vera. 21 September 2007, 8:17 pm

    So technically you don't apply rollback on the whole database, that's a given. However the way he intended to say it can be accepted (i.e. the database was restored). OK so it's does sound like he's trying to sound more knowledgeable than he actually is... but eh :P

    Also, is it just me, but I have no idea what Holandica just said... *scratches head confused*

  31. Rilla. 21 September 2007, 8:33 pm

    @Vera: I admit. It's me being nit-picky on him because he likes saying things like that all the time and doesn't allow people to counter against his opinions. But yeah, it was my need for anger management last night. :P

    I'm not even part of the forum, I'm just laughing at how you said you aren't talking behind their backs because you linked to this blog. Technically, you WERE talking behind their backs and must have felt guilty about it, so you made the blog known to them to say to yourself "I'm not talking behind their backs."

    Checking the e-mail address of idiots? Consider yourself the latter as well, I wouldn't be damned to check yours. Arrogant bitch. ^^

    @LAWL: as long as Rilla's blog is public (i.e. can be accessed by anyone), she's not doing anything behind anyone's back ; that is she's not doing this secretly.

    @Vera

    Who cares if the blog is public? I bet you $5 that nobody mentioned on this blog knew about this until she mentioned it. Technically, she was talking behind their backs.

    You don't make sense. If I was talking behind their backs I wouldn't have let them know I was talking behind their backs. Technically, I'm talking in their face.

    You still don't get it, they are at THAT forum, you are posting on THIS blog. THEY didn't know about this until YOU posted it. It WAS talking behind their backs as you did not do it in a place where THEY knew instantaneously.

  39. Summa. 22 September 2007, 1:57 pm

    gravatar icon

    ehmm... instantly?

    who in their rightful mind would check a forum 24/7?

    what does instantly have to do with anything?

    it was posted in the span of an hour.

    and rilla clearly stated in the FORUM that if she posted THIS ON THE FORUM, she may be suspended for reason of "flaming", so she merely provided a link.

    AND rilla wanted OTHER people from OUTSIDE the forum to know her opinion, and comment. if she only posted on the forum, no one here would know what's going on. and if she only summarized, it wouldn't have the full effect.

    and her title was
    RE: HM Suckers
    I have good, sane blog friends

    which clearly states that "I have friends that agree with me on this. I want YOU whom I am TALING ABOUT know about it"

    Good sane blog friends that make a judgment to Pho and question the size of his masculinity... sounds like more slander and libel to me.

    So much hate :P For all of Rilz friends:

    Yes I'm a jerk/prick/asshole

    "I like good looking rich guys, but unless they have something intelligent to say I'm not going to spare them more than 3 seconds (if that much)." - Thanks for semi agreeing with me.

    "I can't believe that Pho guy... I just learned from him that woman are BIOLOGICALLY attracted to things like money. Maybe he should spread money smelling perfume on to see if "the chicks" get all over him.

    He is obviously attracted only to beautiful rich girls that ignore him, and that's why he think that all girls think the way he does (but vice versa, with guys).

    One last thought, he must be an ugly f*ck."

    I'm not THAT ugly. Think to yourself, what do you see as the perfect husband? Someone that has money to support you and your family. Someone that looks good. Whatever personal traits you find attractive, could be funny, smart, and whatever. The main points are the first two. Every girl likes to see themselves with someone handsome and rich, the personality traits that are attractive differ from person to person.

    You can continue the hating on a jerk now.
