The TTGP Confessional is going to shiit.

GermanGirl2007

The confessional was awesome when it was talking about vaginas killing hamsters, and swinging, but this Ponies vs. an undetermined group of people loosely defined as the "old regs" is getting annoying. I realize I am beating a dead horse here, but WTF is going on? 

If you want to consider this a BOAB thread, fine, but can we just put everything on the table here so I can go back to reading about legitimate confessions like people having anal fetishes?

Philleigh

I don't have a BOAB, but reading the confessional is the first thing I do when I get home from work.  Well, first computer-related thing, I have a little bit more of a life than that. 

Anyways, I find it hilarious and I give mad props when someone uses their name when they make a bold statement.

If there's no TTGP confessional, then the pusssssies on this board won't have anywhere to passive-aggressively bash the people they don't like!

modernfairytale8709

Wait, the confessional is still a thing? For reals? Some people have a tad too much time on their hands. That thing went to shiiit after the first week.

I read it sometimes, there are some good things, but the reg war is getting a little too intense for me. 

Agreed. This is my point. If someone wants to call out Chancie or Banks or Kiki, or anyone else, why does it need to be a gang bang on the confessional? I really never participate in the BOAB threads, but it seems like there has to be a more productive way to hash things out.

It looks like the ones who love to spew their hatred on the confessional don't have much to say when they actually have the chance to BOAB.

Shocker. What a bunch of pansies hiding behind their anonymity.

It's fine if someone doesn't like me, I don't expect everyone to like me.  But if you're going to talk about it talk about it to me.  That's all.

What is BOAB? It wasn't on the TTGP blog.

I don't get why people care that there are cliques on this board? I'm not a part of any clique and it doesn't affect me in any way...I still like posting here and I like reading all the posts whether its full of snark, information or inside jokes, it's all entertaining to me.

I didn't realize it was either. I think I looked at it a few months ago when the link was posted, but I had no idea people were still going there so frequently. If this thread hadn't been posted, I wouldn't even have known I was called out last week for being a "liberal bonehead." Awesome.

You don't scream "liberal bonehead" to me, but what do I know?

I'm still trying to figure out who would rather be with a woman, and who the famous person is.

But Hawkeye, seriously? You're an AE.  That is pretty much the most hypocritical thing to say ever.

Yes! I want to know who the famous person is because I still think it's a Jonas or Hanson brother's wife. And I want to know who killed a hamster with their vag... okay maybe not that last one.

I'm glad you asked this. And I feel the same way. I'm also not part of a "clique" nor did I really think there were any? Maybe I'm just oblivious. I keep coming back because I enjoy it and learn from everyone else.

Wow. The confessional went to crap quick. It's like reading through a bunch of high school drama.

This. I just read it for the first time in weeks. 

HatchetFace:

I'd like to know the "old reg" (every time I see this I think of Old Greg. There was an Old Greg AE around a while ago. Whatever happened to him? Come back my fuzzy little man peach!) who's azz I'm supposedly up all the time. I've never really had any kind of conversation outside of a sentence or two with the people I'd consider the old regs, so I'm not sure how I got dragged into that. I always thought that I kinda kept to myself. 

Now I'm going to go lock myself in the bathroom and cry because someone on the internet said something mean about me.

::whispers to myself, "We can't let the terrorists win.":: 

But for real, if someone wants to netbattle me, just say so. It has to be in the next 30 minutes though, because I'm hangry. Smooches.  

Ever drink Bailey's out of a shoe?

Seriously though, I wondered this too. Some of these "confessions" make me laugh.

I think that was probably the same day as the UO thread that started out about abortion. I was pretty vocal in that thread about being pro-choice. I am pretty liberal, so it's all good.

I am too. But I don't think that makes anyone a bonehead. I wave my rainbow flag wildly! 

Also, and unrelated, why are the MLP's noticeably absent in any thread that brings up this alleged conflict? I feel like if you were at the center of a conflict you would want to clear the air? I am biting my nails waiting for an epic AE fail around this whole situation. 

LollyLawlz

Can someone please explain to me why anyone gives a fock about a fued between My little ponies and "old regs"?  This is shaping up like a badly written west side story.

I am glad you posted this. I wanted to say something, but I wasn't sure how it would come off. I'm ready for things to be less hostile. I've made my mistakes, and learned my lesson about certain things so please don't take me saying all that the wrong way. I know I'm not perfect. I will be more aware of how I act and what I post.  I'm glad this seems to be going somewhere.

Man, people are confused about why the bumpkateers are annoying. I don't need the confessional to hide so let me say it here.
Outside of spooks, you are all asshats. You use your little group to be jerks for no reason and then defer to your buddies for automatic back up. If my tb friends dont agree with me, they don't join in. I was called out for being unnecessarily mean by a few bumpies years ago and I took note instead of whining over and over again like a child. I don't need to like you, I just don't see the pointin acting the way you guys do.

As far as the confessional about a few of us being the buttholes of society? I have only lost touch with 2 bumpies that I knew IRL; one I miss and one was a crazy cvvnt. There are two sides to every story and I have no regrets about what happened with either girl. Whoever you are, deal with it like an adult or keep your mouth shut.

You don't need to like me, I do not expect the whole world to like me. If you think I'm being an asshat or jerk unnecessarily, please feel the need to call me out. We all need to be checked once in a while. If I felt the need to stand up for anyone, I don't remember ever doing so, then I probably agreed with what they had to say.
I've stayed out of this shiit because it's childish. A few of us added something to our siggys, meaning no harm to anyone, and a whole bunch of people got their panties waded up and made it something more than it was ever intended to be. Clearly it wasn't everyone's band of humor, but not once did anyone say something to us. It went straight to attacking us. We've been called all kinds of shiit, most disgustingly, we were compared to pedophiles. Pretty sure we never did a thing to warrant that.
That aside, I haven't posted a thing on the confessional nor did I start the other thread. If I felt like getting into this prior to right now, I would have. Anyone who has a specific issue with me can certainly come to me and stop hiding behind the confessional. I'm a big girl, I can take it.

Sorry for punctuation, spelling, and run on sentences. I hate mobile.

Truth. They're involved, probably. Maybe not all (sorry if that's an overgeneralization), but some. If I were a betting person, I'd say one of them made this thread - although a couple of others come to mind. Pony up and speak your mind, FFS.

PS: The "Bumpkateers" weren't compared to pedophiles - there is a huge fandom behind My Little Pony that consists of adult men who create pornographic art and fuuuckable, tangible objects in the name of My Little Pony. That in itself squicks me out, so I wouldn't personally want to associate myself - online or otherwise - with that sort of thing. Yeah, I watched some of the series. It doesn't mean I'm giving Hasbro my money or that I want to be in an internet pony gang.

Who exactly are you thinking of? Me? I already got called out today so I've said my piece.  Are you going to sit there and pretend like you are completely innocent? We all saw you make fun of the MLP siggys quite extensively, not to mention hijack a few innocent threads.  

 I have no problem saying anything under my own SN. I don't really understand though, I mean their have been numerous AE's making threads to make fun of the MLP siggys, yet one AE makes fun of you and this shiit happens.  You don't see the "Bumpkateers" getting all whiny.  They've also been burned on the confessional numerous times.  

I think the best thing to do is just to let this thing die. 

Also nobody made fun of the "Daisy Chain" thing amongst numerous other inside jokes.  Why is the My LIttle Pony thing such a big deal.  Just my two cents.

ChancieMark:

I've never been one to hide my feelings on any particular subject, which is probably why I'm on that bullshiit list to begin with.

This board used to be FUN. It was snarky but it was fun. Now its being run over by self-important diickheads who have nothing better to do then be unnecessarily mean to other people. 

I like snark and sarcasm where it is deserved but it is seriously depressing around here these days. 

 

Hate to say it, but I agree with most of this. I legitimately feel bad for new people that fall victim to snark for the sake of snark because that's what the board bandwagon decides to do. I try to remain pretty neutral, which I think is why I am almost never called out for anything (negative OR positive), but damn, reaming new people out for funsies, and then calling Slappy and Schwind mean (for example) just because they fall into the "old reg" category is like calling Santa Claus an ***.

In defense of Bronies I think a lot of them are just hipsters trying to be goofy. If you go to Amazon to buy MLP toys you will find a lot of hysterical reviews written by Bronies. While it is disturbing that some of the Bronies have turned MLP into a sexual fetish most of the Bronies aren't doing that.

As for the rest of this BS I've got nothing. I think it speaks for itself.

GermanGirl2007

Alright, this is the last thing I'm going to say, and then I'm done....

"Old regs" are old regs by circumstance, not by choice.  I can only speak for myself when I say that having a history on the board is not an intentional choice to exclude people. Those of us that have been around awhile have shared experiences, and if that has ever made people feel left out, I really am sorry. Honestly, I hope  that none of you ever have to BE old regs! And if I have ever made anyone feel bad, please consider this my olive branch. It was never my intention.

I will confess that it does rub me the wrong way sometimes when groups form that do feel intentionally exclusive i.e. posts that only include people from chat, or groups like the Bumpkateers. (And NO, I did not post anything on the confessional about this). It's legitimately and honestly nothing personal against any of the people in those groups at all.  And while it doesn't make me PERSONALLY feel left out, I just feel like it creates a "them" vs. "us" type of dynamic. 

I totally get that in any group, there will be dynamics and that some people will gravitate towards each other and others will rub the wrong way - that's normal.  We don't all need to sit around holding hands and singing kumbaya, But  I think a concerted effort to diffuse some of this drama wouldn't be a bad thing. 

Imma go smoke my peace pipe now.....

It wasn't an inside joke, Rock. Just because you don't know about something doesn't mean someone is trying to exclude you, or that it's an exclusive thing. 

Fair enough Cle, but I think the MLP started out that way too.  Apparently it was from an inside joke on late night chat, it wasn't meant to exclude anyone.  You asked people to say what they think, so I did.

Anyway I'm sorry if my posts have been hostile and abrasive lately.  Like I said in my call out, I will try to tone it down.

I was at Holiday World all day...I don't sit at my computer all day waiting for someone to make a snarky comment about my siggy pic. I have stayed out of most of the silly threads about the MLP hate, because I think it is childish and don't understand why it causes such an issue in the first place.

Also, I have never participated in the ttgp confessional website OR  any BOAB threads because I don't care enough to spend my time calling out strangers on the internet. Whoever is doing the callouts on that website, it has nothing to do with me.

Just a quick chime in here. I haven't caught up in all that I missed but I do have some insight for the chat vs board post. That's different, Rock. What happens in chat stays in chat. The daisy chain was a thread on TB and it was / is open to anyone on TB. Anyone can go back and read the thread to get it. Chat is off board and unavailable to those that were not part of the conversation. When you bring something from chat to the board you are excluding anyone that wasn't there. As for everything else, I haven't been on TB for over a week, so I have no clue as to who I apparently pissed off. I did lurk one day and I answered a few questions, but the noobs honestly seemed thankful for my help, so... Yeah. Whatever. Oh and schwindy, you're a sweetie. That's just crazy, yo.

The MLP thing started on a late night check in on the board, not chat. I didn't participate that night, but I did read the thread. I got included a few days later, since I did post frequently in the late night stuff. But it was never private or an attempt at exclusivity.
