I concur. Or at least a reputation system.


A reputation button will only make people feel badly again. Artrat, I noticed your posts last night. Sometimes, when a post is full of angst, I don't feel qualified to respond. I feel that I might make it worse rather than better. Or maybe my answer would be so long that I don't have the energy to write such a long response. If it makes you feel any better, we have all been where you are. One of my favorite songs "Wander This World" by Jonny Lang has been played on my youtube a lot lately.

It may not make you feel better, but at least, ironically, you won't feel alone.

I find that I speak a lot in music. It is my way of communicating my feelings.

Music is the best way to communicate your feelings.
I realize that pessimism can scare people away. My posts are very bipolar and paranoid.
Maybe that is why I felt that way when this was posted. Bipolar can be hell.

Tequila, The socialist forums have some of the most arrogant and ignorant people on the net.
I have been involved in the rev left forum but they accused people for being bourgeoisie simply for their choice of food.
They are too ignorant to know that bourgeoisie means middle class.

I thank everyone for the very warm response.I hope that I haven't ignored any of you.
I complain about this forum and then everyone makes me feel welcome. Its quite ironic.
A like button my be a bad idea because some people may not get any likes.

I thought you'd fit in well there. ;)

(To be serious and entirely fair though, a lot of the political forums are full of annoying people. Though the people from the other side are definitely worser. ;))

I have noticed you.

I am not the most popular person on here. I dont get into all the banter really or participate in the "lets rub another members shoulders so they will rub mine in return" threads or add bazillion members on facebook ect. I come voice my opinion, try to be myself while doing so while not purposely hurting other members and go on my way. I dont even really talk about my interests here because i have other forums for that. :shrug: I am used to not being in a clique and could ultimately care less on popularity even among the aspies.

Not really up to anything just visiting online forums. I have been worse.

artrat, I notice that you made a similar comment after I commended Henbane on her posting a great Leonard Cohen video in another [Adult Forum] thread. The reason I didn't chime in when you posted something about Leonard Cohen (before her) is because I was really, really uncomfortable when you said, "he sure is one goodlooking Jewish man."

And, I was commending the song she picked, not the cuteness of Leonard Cohen, so I wasn't really backing you on your choice.

I hope this has been helpful.

I've been noticing you lately. I just don't often quote people or respond to their posts. I will usually respond in a thread based on what I have read in there or responding to the OP only.

I say some well-thought out clever things on this forum and not one person notices.
Then someone says the exact same thing only worded differently. Of course they get many comments and praise.
That is plagiarism which doesn't even bother me that much.
What bothers me is that WP is one big popularity contest just like real life.
I am among the unpopular misfits.

Sometimes I want to say something that will cause a big controversy but I control the urges.
I don't enjoy hurting people but they find no problem with hurting me.

I feel that people just walk right past me and don't notice me at all.
I have very little self esteem but I will say this.
I am very funny,clever and have a great personality when not scared sh**-less of people.
People on line have told me that I was an excellent poet. I am not worthless like I sometimes think.

All of that was very hard to admit but I am so sick of hating myself just because the kids at school decided to hate me.
They even beat me pretty badly.
I am tired of hating myself because nobody notices me.

i respond to you all the time on threads, and have given you compliments on different things that i have noticed about you. but sometimes it's like i'm not on your radar. :?

Artrat, I always feel the same way like you sometimes, and I've noticed you. I wish there was some way for all of us who have the same problem as you to vanish forever.

I've noticed ya, artrat. IIRC, I came to your defense on a thread in the General forum once(not asking for thanks mind you, just making my point).

As far as the witticisms go:

I think that it's a little harder here than some places to gauge if a joke will succeed, that's all.

I've read your posts and I think that you're an interesting person in a good way. There are times that I feel ignored. There are posts that I make that don't get any responses. I spend 90% of the time in Random Discussion and I miss a lot of what's going on. I'll be making better use of WP and I'll start replying to the people who look like they're being ignored, because I know that feeling. Nobody likes to be ignored.Image

Hmmm... I feel the same way. I mean, I'm intelligent enough but I'm not the most fun/entertaining person socially so I get ignored. I hate feeling like I'm a boring person.

I also get ignored a lot on here. Maybe it's just part of the nature of this site. It isn't natural for aspies to go out of there way to give other people attention. I tend to post on things that interest me.
