Just how some of the people on this board handle real life.

I watched for a few months as one of this boards most popular picture posters would suddenly snap at anyone that posted something that didn't just totally envelop her in drool and lust even if it was indeed a comment. I watched her exhibit some posting that made you wonder just how old she was and just how intelligent she was.

I then one day decided to send her a PM. A very polite PM. Offering some suggestions, asking a couple questions, etc.

I was not amazed to see that she read the message but did not respond.

I sent one more message a couple of weeks later and just asked if she'd at least acknowledge my PM. It was read and ignored.

This got me to thinking... how do attention whores live in the real world? Now I'm not talking about girls that post pictures in here in general. To me, those are normal and fine. Thats offering whatever you have whether you think good or bad for the people to see.

I'm talking about the ones that can't handle anything negative. Hell, more than that they can't handle anything that gives 110% drool factor. Can't handle the possibility that another woman may be thought of as more attractive than her. Can't handle a normal intelligent conversation. Etc.

Any thoughts on the matter? I just can't picture it. Real life must be abysmal for these ladies (using the term "lady" rather loosly here). Constantly unhappy and concerned what everyone thinks about me at any given time. They are the type of person that will be standing in a crowd of horny men and state that they are fat just to hear all of the guys trip over themselves to say "no you aren't. Your BEAUTIFUL".

Uggg... yeah, its a bad day. Bad couple of months even. That doesn't change what I've said above though. Just changed my willingness to post something about it.
 
I don't frequent the Amateur Pic Forum or anything of that nature, but yes, in real life it is frustrating when people can't accept or acknowledge constructive criticism.

Isn't what you described like saying, "I want your opinion as long as it agrees with mine."

Well, then, why ask?

:)

Hang int here and find the folks of substance to hang out with . There are a lot of them here.

:)
 
Yes the picture thread ahs its charms, but I think it is another way of being stroked and when they don't get the stroking, they get angry.

Which of our lovely drama queens are you describing?

I'm not willing to post this and have her legions of fans bitch and moan at me in an attempt to make my time here an online hell.

I can say that while I have ONE particular girl in mind, the post is directed at any and all of the girls on this board and others with the exact same issues.

Exactly. I don't agree with the dumbasses that post "she's fucking ugly" etc. I have a problem with those women that can't handle the comments that are actually contructive criticism and ESPECIALLY the ones that can't handle a post thats anything but heaping praise.

Especially when someone posts something that is basically a compliment or a joke and they pop off with "if you don't like my pictures don't look at them.". Then the person has to come back with an apology and explain what they meant because the bitch was too stupid to figure it out. :rolleyes:
 
So this is about the Picture forum? Does the person your complaining about post in the General forum?

Possibly. I don't know. Why?
 
Purrde Flower said:
Because wouldn't it have more effect in the picture forum? Or are you just attention seeking?

Here, let me help you out. One, the picture forum is for pictures. I'm not directly addressing any particular set of pictures. Therefore, it would be off-topic in the amateur picture forum.

Second, it was a general question. Not directly about a particular person. Therefore it falls under general.

Perhaps now you can offer something useful to the conversation now that all of the hidden intricasies of the difficult to grasp concept are layed before you?

So your attention seeking.. Thats all you had to say.

Ummm, yeah. :rolleyes:

If open discussion of a subject is attention seeking. Try harder next time.

If I was attention seeking I'd post my picture and throw a fit anytime someone posted something other than telling me how hot I was or that they wanted to suck my dick. ;)

Don't get upset hun. There isn't anyhting wrong with it. People post all the time including yourself to get attention. Why are you getting upset or snappy because you don't agree with my opinion?

Frogs legs!:p

Not a frog leg eater here. If I didn't know what they were and wasn't burdened with my pre-concieved notion of "but its FROG legs" I'd like them when they are dipped in bourban batter and deep fried to perfection. :)

Here again is help for those that can't keep up.

General conversation is not whoring for attention. Perhaps you havn't figured that out yet or perhaps you are an A.H. yourself and went on the defensive. :shrug

I'm not at all upset with a differing opinion. What I'm "upset" about if you can call it that is the fact that someone can't keep up with the thread and can't figure out what attention whoring is. They also can't post anything relevant to the original question.

Broken down cliff notes style the question is... how do people that can't handle not being told "you are hte most beautiful person in the world" handle everyday life?

Grilled and spicey. Great taste.

How did we get on the discussion about frog legs? LOL

I'm not defensive. But you are. You have to result to minor insults because I don't agree with you. I do think conversation is attention seeking. Why else would you talk to anyone else if it wasn't in some way, shape or form. People like to have someone pay attention to them while they talk.

So we have a difference of opinion in what an attention whore is then I suppose.

Here ya go again with the small insults. Just because I see somehting different than you you feel the need to make a snide comment.

Maybe they believe if you don't have anyhting nice to say to someone you shouldn't say it at all.

So by posting on a message board I'm in the same league as those that get bent out of shape when someone doesn't drool over my pictures??? Wow... that is quite a hefty bit of logic usage there.

Obviously. I had no idea that to be anything other than a mute hermit meant you were an attention whore. Thanks for opening my eyes.

Here ya go again with the small insults. Just because I see somehting different than you you feel the need to make a snide comment.

Actually, I will start off by saying that yes, by nature I am a smart ass. THEN I will say that you are indeed on the defensive because you saw that comment as a "snide comment". Spend time on boards and you'll figure out that it wasn't an insult. It was to show you what the intended purpose of the thread was. Something you totally overlooked in an attempt to insult me from the begining.

Since we don't agree on attention whore perhaps we can agree on the definition of hypocrite. Let me know when you figure out who was trying to insult who.

Its called open discussion and amazingly enough it started out that way. I didn't say anything directly "un-nice". I asked a question.

I've already figured out that you can't grasp that though so I'll just continue to read responses from someone that can't figure out how to post a response that is on-topic.
