I give up! Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

First it is about my political views.

Then it is about something I supposably sent.

And now what it is going to be about? I am sick and tired of this. Why is it me? Why can't you guys pick on someone else? Why me? Don't say I am an easy target, because if you pick on me enough I will take off for nine months like I did some time ago.

Maybe I should shut-up and become the hermit of this forum. Yes, that seems the most sensible idea in the position I am at this time where I am indiscriminately attacked.

Giancarlo, if you were honest with yourself and with us, you wouldn't have these problems.

Either that, or you could at least learn to lie well, since "somebody hacked my account six times" doesn't cut it.

I am not living a lie.
Instead of replying twice before I am gone for good, I will continue this conversation and will respond to everyone for the last time in any thread.

Well, that is called human nature. I lied before. And that I concede to, all humans lie many times. But I never have and never will lie about who I am.

Regardless of what he's decided his sexual preference is now, he should at least be honest. If he thought he may have been in the past and had said that, then to deny it is to lie and he's going to be attacked if it's obvious.

Just because he thought he may have been gay in the past doesn't mean he thinks of himself that way now. But if he's not being honest about it, well, I don't know what else there is to say.

Gia,

You wouldn't get teased so hard if you grew a sense of humor and some perspective and a thicker skin. I really could care less if you're gay or if you're just being teased about being gay and aren't.

Either way...learn to interact with the rest of the animals in the zoo...

I would agree. And I am leaving this forum so I can think on my own and not have people influence any decisions I make. I most likely will go into Conservative Politics.

I have not lied. I was framed by a North Korean Operative Group in control of this forum.

That is the kind of assumption you are making. You really want to know me, fly down to Buenos Aires.

You joke now, but you used to make the same claim back on SC3000.com. You said the forums were run by North Koreans.

Anyway, if you're not going to come clean now, you'll have no respect from me until you do. And, yes, you'll be back.

I'm scared, PH. There was no 'apology' thread this time. Usually there's an "I'm sorry, I'll change!" thread that degenerates into "you are all communists!", and THEN he leaves. But not this time! What's happening?!

They said the world changed after September 11, but I didn't think it was this bad!

Gian, I don't hate you. In fact, I'm awfully fond of you. I honestly don't want to see you go, and it's not so you'll still be here to make fun of.

But kid, you do set yourself up for a lot of what comes at you. You make up stuff to support whatever you are saying (not all the time, but often enough to have earned a nickname for it). You lie outright, either about being gay or about not being gay (and no one believes all this hacking stuff). And you just say the craziest things. You have a giant kick me sign that you put on your on back.

I just wish you could be happy with yourself, who ever you are, cuz it's apparent to everyone else that you aren't. I think you have a good heart, and you're a good looking kid. You've been able to go places and live a life that most people dream of, and you're still just a teen.

red_jon, shame on you. Whether it's true or not, you have no right to out someone besides yourself. It doesn't matter that we're a non-discriminatory group, it doesn't matter that Gian says off the wall stuff, or that he once claimed to be gay and then renigged. It's his right, and his alone, to out himself (if he really is closeted.)

Take care, Giancarlo. Best of luck.

I agree, Sloww.

Giancarlo and I have been having some pretty cool mini-discussions over ICQ over the past few weeks. I just think it's pathetic that he lies to us. At least make the lies good and entertaining.

GP - Gian asked us to treat him like any other user, so I - and others - agreed and made an honest effort to. It worked quite well, actually, but in the end he didn't change and kept up his silly little tactics, and they provoked the same reaction.

Reminds me of a 'lil saying: "if you're gonna act like a *****, you're gonna get slapped like one."

Hmmm, well, you hate me for some reason or another...

....but see ya.

Let me just say that you're not a good liar, and even if you were, lying is not a good thing. I may not agree with your views on a lot of things (a WHOLE lot of things) but I can always respect someone's right to have a view, if nothing else. So that's what I have....respect for your right to have a view. Other than that, you haven't given me any reason to respect you...mainly because you've been a liar and a troll for a long time. Just be yourself, and be honest...and everyone will like you just fine.

Gay, straight, bi, asexual....no one cares. It's not going to affect our decision on liking you or not. Example - I read/talked to RedJon and Boris Godunov on these forums for a while before finding out they're gay, and I like them just fine. You don't have to tell us what you are, but you yourself should try to find peace with yourself as to what it is you are. If you don't know who you are, well then, who are you?

Put an end to popups!

I see what many of you mean, and I decided not to leave. I just shouldn't take things so seriously. I will also promise to keep lies to myself and not subvert the truth about myself.

I am not asking for another chance from anybody, this I will do myself. You do not have to do anything. I am not going to ask for forgiveness or any of that because it is not approriate however I will remain away from several posters until I get a solid resolve. These posters include Rev, Redjon, Asher and Bob. I will also try to lighten up a bit. I really don't have any clue why I get worked for something in some forum where I don't know anybody.

Bob: You are a communist.
