Okay, I'm going to ask all the members this, and please honest me answer. Am I doing something wrong? I'm a offending you or making you mad, annoyed...anything? Just tell me - I'll fix the problem, I'll even shut up, just tell me! What am I doing wrong! I can tell you guys are pissed off at me already. What did I do wrong?

I don't understand one damn word you said. And why call out Wes? What'd he do? If you think everyone is mad at you where you live do you call out one person to make it right?

I can't say I'm mad at ya... I don't understand ya, but I ain't mad at ya.

I said please answer honestly. What am I doing wrong to make you guys mad? At Wes said something to me saying i'm not a thought of as a member, because he got annoyed of what I've been doing (read the Bloody Murder Website thing), and if I can tell that he's pissed off, I read other replies, and people are not taking me seriously or something (read the administrator and morderator thread) Yeah Wes is mad at me, what he said, that's why I made this post. Wes i can tell is one person whose mad. That's the first person that I need to call out, since he just posted a message replying i did somethin wrong.

I'm just trying to find out what I'm doing wrong, so I can fix the situation. Do you get me now?

I don't think anyone is "mad" at you. You have to understand that SimplyScripts drips of sarcasm...Some of it's funny, some of it's dry, some of it's quite humorous (but not in the TBS way...).

Anywho, we are all a community and I can't see anything you've done wrong. A lot of people are very opinionated and will tell you what they are thinking upfront.

Make sense?

Look, Wes is a moderator... it's his ball of wax to play with "so to speak" He, like several of us, don't like to see people come on the boards for one thing and then leave... If you're not gonna contribute, then don't bother being a member.

I'm not saying what you have to say is pointless and what I have to say is golden... not at all. I'm just saying make sure you are here cause you have something to contribute to the "BOARDS" and not just gain for yourself.

There is nothing more annoying as seeing someone post a screenplay... we all read it and respond and then the writer never comes back. Why even post the thing, ya know?

With you... I've poked fun at ya a time or two... That's just me. I like to be on the opposite end of the feild with people... a lot of the time. I like conflict and saying what I feel, reguardless of anyone else's opinions. Not saying I'm right and they're wrong... just saying it's what I beleive and I will stand up and stick it out to the end... no matter how bad someone makes me look like a fool.

That about sums it up. Bloody murder sucks too by the way.

E.T., you think too much.

Quoted from MacDuff You have to understand that SimplyScripts drips of sarcasm...Some of it's funny, some of it's dry, some of it's quite humorous (but not in the TBS way...).

Oh, this is the worst thread ever!

I hate you, E.T.,  I hate you with the fire of a thousand suns.

Is this what you're referring to, E.T.?

Quoted from Old Time Wesley I'm old fashioned and don't consider you a member of the site just because you signed up and spent about 90% of that time talking about yourself and your work... Ring any bells?

If this is true, then I agree with Wes.

Also, I believe E.T. took offense to Baltis calling him "new" in the Bloody Murder thread. E.T.? Seriously, you are new, you joined the board on November 1st! I consider myself new and I joined in June.

Regardless, I think you need to grow a thicker skin, E.T. I don't think anybody hates you, not even Wes. He's a confirmed curmudgeon, so take everything he's says with a grain - no make that an institutional size box - of salt.

woah, pete what does curmudgeon mean?  help my vocab out.

One thing, I didn't came on this board to fight with anyone, I just wanted to get some feedback on my scripts, and talk to people about there scripts.

Can you guys clarify some things:
1) What did Wes meant by that?

I'm not trying to offend people or all that stuff, I just don't want people to talk trash about me or dislike or get annoyed on what I do.

Just tell me what that means - problem solved.

Ps. Can some1 delete this thread?!

cur·mudg·eon

An ill-tempered person full of resentment and stubborn notions.

or

a crusty irascible cantankerous old person full of stubborn ideas.

Both are pretty accurate descriptions of Wes, or at least his posts. Well, except for the old part.

And I suspect the thread will be deleted or closed shortly.

Well, I want to say something before the thread gets closed...just for fun.

This has been said repeatedly, and it'll be said until th end of time. To get reads, you gotta give reads. Read the scripts of others and leave feedback, and people will be inclined to read yours. Not only those whoose script you might have read, but other people will see that you are an active member (an active member participates in various pointed and pointles discussions) and look at your script.

It's not a consistent thing, I'll grant, but you're more likely to get read that way, than by whining about being mistreated. Some people are more pointed than others, but take it all in stride and you'll be fine.

E.T. who cares if people like you? I don't care if anyone likes me... many don't... trust me. All I care about is interacting with, obviously, better writers than myself and hearing what they think about my work and giving feedback on what I think about others work.

If you come to the dance wanting to be the best dressed, most liked and all that... people will hate you. It's just instilled in everyone to think this way...

Be a positive member to the boards. Contribute. Stop being so annoying and asking if you're liked and shit... that's really reaching' buddy.

Quoted from Balt . that's really reaching' buddy.

Reaching? Anyway, i really have no idea why ET started this thread. I have seen no reason for anyone to "hate" (dislike is more appropriate) him/her.
