SPARKEY RANT THREAD !

[GoldenFox93]

Enough mind****s for now, trollface. We've got n00bs to discuss here.

[Somebody]

ROBO is right. Nary is a lot like sparkey in the arrogance that they have or had. Naryar has earned it though. He is this forums #1 DSL Expert. He knows it inside and out. He has explored every nook and cranny. If we drove him away, we would no longer have the wealth of knowledge that is clogging up his C-W (Cheese-Wine) area in his brain (its a French thing). I think that because of this we all put up with more from him subconciously.

@Sparktastic: I have decided that starting now, you have a clean slate with me. I see a lot of similarities between you and me. In looking back at my n00b days posts, I was such a n00b and did not even realize it. It also took me forever to grasp some of the simplest concepts of RA2. You can get it though, and maybe someday we will see "Sparkey98" as the winner of a tournament.

I have only 1 piece of advice: Listen to advice. We have been here long enough to know what we are talking about, and trust us we do. Not just on bots either. Our advice is more of a mishmash of things to help you overall with everything on GTM. I highly recommend it. But if you call right now, we will also throw in our all new... XD

[Gazea2]

Thank you R0B0 and Somebody.

Fixed. :P

Anyway, although you haven't done anything to me, I accept your apology. You now have a clean slate with me as well. Just remember, listen to advice. Sometimes it may seem harsh but we are only trying to help you. :)

That's like saying "Flying Spaghetti Monster" is a swear word...

It's all arbitrary, so why not?

In that case. I don't think **** is a swear word. Neither is sh**, cunt or bitch.

Doesn't bother me.

[Meganerdbomb]

Alright then.
Also from now on: lamb-chops is a swear word.

Nar, I appreciate and can relate with your 'rantz' about Sparks, but there's no need to defend me ....
 
Let me share a bit of very liberating insight:
Words are just a MEANS to hopefully communicate information about reality. Words are symbolic noises or letters that together merely 'represent' certain parts of reality. The words are NOT that part of reality (thing/person) but only a right (or wrong) representation of he/she/it/you.
It's like drawing a picture to represent something real, for communicating an idea. The picture is not the actual thing, just a symbol of it (accurate or not accurate). Words are only a mere 'representation'...
 
Words are really only a means of communicating, and when written, they only affect the ink on a paper, or when spoken, only vibrate the air .
 
I.e.: I can say "The sky is blue!", but just because I said it (1) doesn't mean my words are accurate; nor (2) do my words make the sky blue. The sky is what it is, whether or not I speak this or that,.... or at all, it doesn't change or affect reality; but only might 'describe' it. Another example: Next time you're at an intersection, just declare "There is no car coming!"... and then brainlessly pull out.  Why don't we do this?  Because words do not 'create' reality, but can only 'describe' it.  So when people say things to you all they're doing is vibrating the air, nothing more; and the words in and of themselves should have no effect on you.
 
Now if the words communicated DO describe reality, then you should, and need, to respond to the real problem that needs to be dealt with. But here still, you're not responding to the words, but to the part of reality you were just made aware of. And if the words do not describe reality, then there is nothing to respond to.... Except maybe to help that person who is (knowingly or unknowingly) not it touch.
 
So when communicating, listen objectively to discern if what they're saying is accurate. If so then thank them, and respond to the actual issue. Else just go on,... for 'nothing' happened.

Because we're so impulsive and don't consistently think things through clearly, we brainlessly accept or reject others words, and end up being controlled by reacting to myth thrown out by others specifically designed to get me to 'react' to their words, instead of reality.  This is called interrelational 'baggage'.  Thus they 'play' with me,.. and that is their goal,... but my fault that they found a foot-hold in my own lack of mental maturity. 
 
Flame wars would not work without this brainless reacting.  I watch some here cast out little 'bait-words', just like a fishing line, to see who they can reel in and play with... as though people are 'things' to play with.

I've seen this particular 'brainless reaction to words' in myself, and so I share with those interested here to check for this, and to encourage and facilitate people to think and respond to reality using their own faculties rightly/soberly, instead only reacting at the level or mark of a beast.
 
Sorry for any type-O's.. This is a short, user-friendly synopsis of a lecture I give on Social Psychology, that anyone can understand if they're willing to...
 
-----------------
Sparkey's paradigm/view of self is built and therefore dependent upon the 'words' of others.  I call it ASD (Attention Seeking Disorder). You can see how like an alcoholic, he constantly 'lusts' for words of affirmation (compliments).  That's because like a drink/drug, the words are only a 'buzz' for him to synthetically 'feel' good for a moment, while reality is unchanged.  Thus he must return for more (addiction).  And so it is with any way of playing with reality (myth). 
 
Therefore, like a drunk using a bottle, when someone responds by telling him what he wants to hear, Sparkey will maintain his 'useful' relationship with that person (his bottle). "Little brown jug, how I love thee."  But when the same person does NOT say what he wants to hear, then like a drunk would an empty bottle, he throws it away (maybe even angry at it), and then looks for another to replace it.  And so it is with any of us.
 
An important addition: It should also be noted that this 'pretend world'/myth, that he is so addictively enslaved to, also gives others a 'foot-hold' to play with him by just telling him certain supportive or non-supportive words.  Anyone for fishing?  Having shared a bit, I hope now there's nothing (ignorant) out there to catch...

Good speech. *claps*

[inplabth]

I, uh... Wow.

[Somebody]

I official pronounce you Shaman of the boards. May the power of all Medicine Men be with you Mad...

If you guys don't give this kid a break, I swear to climb up your dsl cables, set your faces on fire and put it out with an axe. He's a ****ing 12 year old kid.

Oh, and Nary, either you are not 21 or socially ****ed up.
I've never seen any mentally healthy person aged 16 or above getting this worked up about a 12 year old kid.
You're either 15 or younger, or a ****ed up idiot, but my guess would be 'both'.
