The Physcology of PSX2Central

(littered with typos)

Ok I thought it would be fun to start a thread about how people act on these boards. Im not a physocologist but i\'ve made some obversivations.

The picture: People recognise other people when they get pictures, we all know Ethan Hunt\'s picture, Kopking\'s picture, Samwise, 00seven, Vulcamn Ravens etc... It helps us remember the person. So peeps without pictures like me don\'t get remember or considered to be a strong member of the PSXCentral world.

The dreaded post count Vs date registered: As far as im concerend no one looks at the date registered, its all about post count. Now people on these boards (always tend to be the people with high post counts) say stuff like post counts doesn\'t matter, its quality posting not quantity posting and I agree. However how would these people feel if every user  had there post count blanked? So everyone looked like they hadn\'t been here longer or less than anyone else? Im sure comments would be rasied.

Another thing I noticed about post count is my post count is high, i\'ve been here a year and checked daily and managed to get over 1000 posts! However it looks like i\'ve been here a year and been idle because of people who get 3000 + posts, Sublime springs to mine (you don\'t mind me using you as an example right?). I mean 3000 posts in a year. I can\'t be bothered but if you work that out in a day it sure is a lot.

PAL vs NTSC: The (I presume) american posters post in a different mannor to the (I presume) english posters (of course theres other PAL peeps, shouts to Adan, 00seven, that guy from Zurich, Samwise, No-one, Bossieman etc). I don\'t know what it is. It isn\'t a worse or better mannor its just different.

The SmallLady: I dunno what to say. OK first thing is I think small lady is great. :shy: However how come during everypost you seem to remind us how cute or intelligent you are. With you liking your music as "Intelligent Art", reading them jap poems, Hikuos (or something their called) and telling us all that your this fit blonde chick (can\'t remember which post but somewhere). Sorry but sometimes your posts are predicable and make me feel sick with cuteness. But we love anyway.

Anyway I can\'t think of any other things at the moment.

primates > humans

just rememeber that and all will be well

A very interesting thread. I agree absolutely in all and every one point of your text. But I\'d say something else: have you all notice the relationship among the members?? It\'s simply great.

I mucho agree.  

I think spamming has gotten a little much lately.  There are quite a few people out there that are double posting rather than editing the previous post.  All in the name of higher counts.  

There is plenty to talk about to get your post count up without frivalous posts.

The other points, I agree too.  The small lady one was funny because I always thought the same thing.  And she refuses to put a pic up.  She\'s probably goth.. hehe.

or maby she wont put up a pic because im here now.

Umm.. Intelligent art? When did I write that. It makes no sense to me. Maybe I was tired.

Have I ever said "I am intelligent"? Cause that doesn\'t sound like me. Cute, sure, cause I want to be cute, and I don\'t mean looks, I mean the attitude. The whole point of "Small Ladyness", you\'ll get it if you read/watch Sailor Moon.

And I KNOW I have NEVER EVER said that I am "fit". This sounds so ridiculous... Honeys, what ever image you have of me is one you have made up yourselves. I usually confirm them. Why shouldn\'t I. If you think I am hot & sexy (although u have never seen me) why should I insist I\'m not. And why shouldn\'t I state my hair color. This is strange. Of course I\'m blond. I\'m scandinavian.

Reading them Jap poems... I am sorry if you think my interest & love of Japan is fakey or something... Maybe I should remove my sig, huh? But I want to see this haiku cause it\'s beautiful. And true.

Why am I writing this anyway, I\'m so predictable.

But if I make u sick with cuteness, well, mission successful. The world needs more cuteness.

And surely I knew Videoholic hates me. Go ahead.

About refusing to put my pic up.... Why should I. I\'m just posting here. I don\'t need to prove anything.

You really think I\'m great and you love me? Funny way of showing that. I shall spend the rest of the evening hurt.

...Have I ever said anything mean about you? I don\'t think so. But apparently I deserve this for something awful that I have done.

Alright.. this post was supposed to end a long time ago. But I just can\'t get over the fact that you think I\'m fakey. Come visit me sometime. You\'ll see I love all things Japanese such as them poems... I guess I should hide it huh? Since it bothers you so much...

Isn\'t it better that I act cute than mean and evil? I just want to bring good things into this world And now I see everyone hates me.

That is all. Just one more thing... It was not me who said I\'m hot or sexy or fit or anything. It was OTHER POSTERS. It was because I\'m a girl. Blame them not me.

Well i agree with lots of stuff but with smalllady and im not trying to kiss ass i already got a girl i love here with me

saw i had a little intro in their too - yea there are times i get on here more then once and post about 10 posts each time if there is something new to respond to but im not on here 24/7 - well i use to when i first started college last year but not anymore


Anyway back to Smalllady - i dont think she acts fake - i mean i love japanese culture too and anime and all that stuff - lol i have J Pop music all over my computer and i am taking japanese languae next semester in college

I also dont see her post as predicatable - she doesnt even post that much so when she does its more of a surprise if anything - the reason she stands out if mostly because she is a girl with a pic and high post count - you dont see many of those on any forum anywhere really

anyway just saying Smalllady dont worry not everyone thinks that about you and i am sure that RichG didnt meant it to come off that way

anyway thats my piece

Firsty thanks to the chimp for name altering me. Much apprehated the nanners are in the post.

This is an example of small lady\'s predicableness. She took my post all of context and said she was hurt and upset.

If you trurly are hurt then im upset im really sorry I didn\'t mean for that too happen. I think your posting is quality and I didn\'t mean my post to be a personal attack against you. It was more on the physcology on how you seem to get everyone to precieve you as. Im not saying that you are fit but im sure that no one here imagines you as ugly... Is that your own doing in the way that you post maybe it is maybe it isn\'t.


Either way I really didn\'t mean to upset you and I do think your a good poster. None of my comments there was meant to cause offesnse.

Am I forgiven ? I honestly 100% didn\'t mean this post as offensive to you and I do honestly think your a great poster.

I was trying to show the physocology of peeps. Take sublime for example he had to say that he was sticking up for smalllady and then add that he had a bird. He added that bit I dont know probs cause he thought everyone else thought he was sticking up to you cause you are a female. Its this kind of physcology i was trying to get over in my thread. I dunno?

Please don\'t take it as a personal attack though.

I believe you when you say you didn\'t want to hurt me, so yes, you are forgiven.

I\'m just very sensitive when it comes to critique.

And I do find it offensive and hurtful when someone questions my love for Japanese things... Cause it really means the world to me.

Anyway... I guess I shouldn\'t react so much if someone doesn\'t like what I do. it\'s their opinion. I can\'t change it.

Thanks for the forgiveness. I do like yuor love of japan stuff. Don\'t change for anyone and you haven\'t acted in anyway to upset me.

Edit - Please check your PM small lady.

I won\'t dive into that whole smalllady RichG thing, but I will ask that you, Rich, or anyone else who\'s willing to, to try and psychoanalyze other people.  Hell, I\'ll even offer myself as the first target.  People have been telling me I\'ve been a jerk lately.  If you want to, explain why or explain my post style in general.  I don\'t care if it\'s bad, do your worst.  I just think it\'d be interesting to hear anyone\'s input.  I always enjoyed these things anyways, like how people analyze you based on your choices in life or your preference in ice cream.  It\'d be interesting if you could analyze me by my posts.

As for post counts, I always hold a certain respect to those who have relatively moderate or small post counts but have been registered for a good while.  I also try and take note of the quality of the posts from members and take their opinions a little more seriously.

But in truth, I don\'t give a hoot about the post count.  I actually would like to see that feature go away in hopes of filtering out the poop and retaining quality discussions.

But no big deal.  No strong feelings one way or the other.

I\'m curious as to what people perceive me as? serious response\'s only..if one even cares to tackle the project;)

And now I see everyone hates me.

What, huh? No way.

I surely don\'t, and I don\'t think anyone else does. Why would they?

I think the problem with SmallLady doesn\'t lie within her reach. Toss one girl in the middle of 100 guys, and hopefully you see where I\'m getting at. Let\'s just say they build up their own image. An image that would be appropiate to them, I suppose.

People have been telling me I\'ve been a jerk lately.

I must be in a time warp. When did this happen? I read most of your posts and I haven\'t seen any evidence of you being a jerk.

Everyone hates SmallLady and Ryu\'s a jerk? When did I miss this? :eek:

Anyhow, what was the point of this thread again Rich? Oh yeah. Well, I see myself as the poster in the back who only speaks when he needs to. (and probably isn\'t heard but oh well. ) I\'m not here to inflate my post count, that\'s for sure. Perhaps it\'s time for a new avatar. (I tend to ramble as well. )

Ryu has finally joined the elite club of "jerks" with Altered and I? I\'ll be damned.. Welcome to the club, Ryu!

Seriously though, I have seen no evidence of you being a jerk. I have seen you speaking your opinion and using facts to back up some recent debates , which is sure to piss some people off, but oh well, right?
