Are you feeling like this too...

:smiley: :drinkers: Cheers Fella’s

If only people could voice their opinions without disagreeing parties flying off the handle…

Great post bro :rock:

I feel confused by this thread’s apparent purpose.

So…Even though there are many valid issues (some that have drawn out for years without the means to a satisfactory resolution) between members of this forum due to issues such as bad business, false claims, outright slander, loss of money, deceitfulness, and lack of professionalism, we’re all just supposed to drop the quest for resolution and truth concerning certain people, products, and businessmen…just to hold hands and sing a song about Daisies and Lollipops with the people who don’t understand ANY of the issues at hand?

Come to think of it, exactly what is this thread’s “movement” pertaining to? Its subject is so wonderfully vague and broad, that it could be about anything and everything. I honestly don’t see the point in it.

Cheers,

Ryan

True that.

:unamused:

I can easily see this becoming everyone jumping on The Death Curse about this, but you guys have to realize he is right.

A lot of people argue here for a reason, a lot of members just seem to look through it and go “oh boy another trouble maker” and roll their eyes at it and say some witty remark backing up someone they know nothing about or why they are being called out.

Good post Ryan.

Absolutely not. However that doesn’t give anyone the excuse to troll, hijack threads, name-call, make threats or be disrespectful to other members. There’s a right way and a wrong way to express opinions and concerns.

Many people know plenty about the issues at hand but don’t choose to derail a thread at every given chance. This last statement is NOT directed toward you by any means. You asked a legitimate question.

Hi Ryan… wow bro you have been a member here since 2003 that is a long time and you have probably seen a lot of things change here over the years. I realize that there has been a huge amount of issues that need resolving and I really don’t know what all the answers are bro but a start would be if we could start being a bit more civil to each other. I know respect is earned not given and a thread like this is just a very small start to a resolution to all that needs to change around here if people are gonna want to hang around. A veteran member like yourself may have more insight to those changes and could get involved with the mods to help recommend a positive change. Thanks for the post bro. Mike

But don’t you think it really doesn’t do any good to punish one side of everything and NOT the other. Two wrongs don’t make a right and some people seem to not understand that, they want all this drama to go away…but SOME people still insist on bringing things up regardless to the fact that something has already been done and it should just be dropped, while others want to pick a fight and don’t like it when someone else defends their side.

It seems the main posters in these arguments try to remain civil but get triggered by some ignorant, uneducated member who thinks “no they are wrong because I say so.” It’s hard to keep your cool in these matters, but I guess you are right, the more civil the better these things will be handled, and I guess what you are saying is it isn’t necessarily us you are referring to.

I don’t low myself to name calling, and even though I defend my side, I hate seeing someone on my side use such savagery in an argument, it just ruins the whole point of the debate in the first place.

im with you 100% Mike. there will always be issues on the board but slander and accusations are uncalled for.
it appears that Derek himself has had it will all the unnecessary negative comments and im glad to see him take action.
the affirmative action taken on “The Truth” thread needs to be persistant on those types of comments and that alone will cut way down on the slander and bashing comments.

You are absolutely Right! 100%

The thing about that thread, “The TRUTH”, I get it, it’s a fun video, I even made one and sent it to a friend.

But everyone is acting like Nik is a god for cheering them up. I guarantee any other unknown member posted it, it wouldn’t get half the recognition. The thing is, because the arguments have been occurring, I am sure many people expected a thread titled “The TRUTH” by nikolasartgallery to be a thread revealing something about the claims people are making against him, and I was glad something was finally being done, but it’s just another distraction. Not that it is negative at all, I just think it’s being a little blown out for what it is. Definitely a fun video and I give Nik props for spreading it, everyone seems to be enjoying it, including myself.

I posted in there that I didn’t think it was funny, no bashing, no trolling, and my post got deleted. :unamused:

Edit:
And Joseph DID post that same thing a few months back…

now jon we’re on the same page for the most part on this but i feel some your your comments are in haste.
i dont know how many times ive recently heard the phrase “some act like Nik is a God” because they like his masks and now everyone that commented to his video is acting like he his a God because he cheered them up? :confused: i suppose your saying that by the number of replies the thread got?
you know there have always been select members on here that no matter what they post gets 3x as many replies as the average joe.
no body thinks Nik is a God. but if any veteran member wouldve posted that same video it wouldve gotten the same amount of replies minus the B.S negative comments.
