rrr8891: I wasn't trolling, just trying to Jew you down a bit.

monkeydelarge: ??? Dude, go play Bejeweled or something. It's better than failing at trolling. If you want to learn to be better at trolling, read Tarnicus's posts.
Every single post you have ever made has been a failed attempt at trolling.

monkeydelarge: Not true. I only accuse people of being trolls if they admit, they enjoy my reactions. :) Nice try though. :) If someone is just being nasty to me, he or she is not a troll. He or she is just a purple pony fucker. Like you minus the troll part.

WBGhiro: Ah yes that cleared everything up, well have a nice one then, watch out for trolls that keep following around for god knows what reason.
That is because I'm like Taco Bell for trolls. I know my words give off an image of a guy raging in front of his computer, face all red, ready to pick up the monitor and throw it against the wall.

Just because my posts bring out rage in some people doesn't mean I'm a internet troll. I really see no point in trolling on the internet. In fact, if I feel like trolling, I troll in real life. It's a lot more fun.

monkeydelarge: I don't hate everyone who doesn't see things the way I do. It all depends on what we are looking at. If I'm looking at food and the food I find delicious, other people find disgusting. I don't hate the people who find the food I find delicious, disgusting. Yes, overall, I'm an intolerant person but aren't most people intolerant. their own way? I don't know why you single me out. Don't you think all the people who are trolling me for not liking my behavior, are intolerant? Deep down inside(if the person hasn't come out yet), there is an intolerant person in almost everyone.

Nirth: So you admit being intolerant?
Yes, I'm an intolerant person. I don't see what the big deal is. I'm sure you are an intolerant person too but intolerant against people who, fortunately for you, aren't members of the GOG community(or these people haven't revealed themselves).

I went through a phase of buying anything and everything that I thought would "make me" happy, and wasted a lot of money. Turns out it didn't work.

I remember you stating in another thread that you don't care what others here think of you, i.e. you don't value our opinion(s), correct?

Given the above and the fact that you admitted being (such) an intolerant person, I have to wonder - why do you (still) participate in this forum? What are you looking for and what does it offer you?

Actually I'm not (in general anyway) but you didn't respond to any of my other comments, for example your job position. My opinion is that you should focus on that entirely until that problem is solved then you can sell your stuff in case you need space or don't need them anymore.

Here's a small story that might happen. You manage to sell your stuff for less than they're worth in a close future. A month or two goes by after that future and your financial problems have caught up with you and now you need to start selling stuff you actually need and will get a horrible value out of them, even worse than your first stuff you sold.

Your options:
1) Sell your stuff you actually need for a loss
2) Search for a job
3) Find the necessary skills and knowledge to apply for jobs you can't do now
4) Create an idea and find necessary resources (capital, information, contacts) to start a company.

I am here for knowledge and entertainment. I'm also here to interact with other human beings to keep my mind sharp. Interacting with other human beings here also keeps me from forgetting English. Studies have proven that people(prisoners in solitary confinement) who are completely alone 24/7 become retarded or go insane. Obviously, I don't want to become retarded or insane. I also come here to study humans. Sometimes I come here to try to convince people to become better or like the movies, TV shows and video games I like.

Am I to understand that you can't (i.e. have no one to) do any of these things in the physical world you live in?

I could turn to real life for these things but GOG is more convenient. I also come here to bitch. No fun bitching about life to a wall and no stranger in real life, would listen to my bitching. In real life, if you come up to a stranger and start bitching, the stranger will think you are a crazy person and quickly leave.

Edit 2: This thread is officially crossed over to the dark side. Some of you people really need to get professional help. The anger and hatred you hold in is not good for anyone.

Edit: forgot to mention, I look forward to your next forum name change. Keeps the trolls on their toes. With smart savvy ingenuity like that, I'm surprised more people ain't buying what you're selling.

So... You're a troll?

monkeydelarge:
I understand your point. I absolutely agree that sometimes people literally want stuff for free. You don't have to be happy with it, just try to understand the buyer.

Sometimes, I want to pay more. I really do. I am just tired of recieveing trash and being exected to pay full price for it.

People selling a rental copy. Or a CD used for floor cleaning, or wall scuffing. (not funny)
A stock photo or photo of a closed box. No descrition. No clues weather anything beyound CDs is actually included.

Bundle sells are more of a commercial for future sells. A small group of people buy the game. Talk about it, post videos, tweet and write in facebook. All of this is for free. A small loose in revenue now, much higher gains in future.

monkeydelarge: What I'm selling is the type of stuff that is just as needed or desired as Apple Ipads, for example. [...] The kind of stuff, criminals always steal because they know what sells.
Now on apple goods, as example.
There have been a lot of knock offs. A lot, a lot, a lot. People make youtube videos, write posts, people learn. You sell a used ipod, or something else. No way I can be sure you sell the original. Everythig can be opened, tampered with and closed with no visibe evidence. The only way to be sure is to buy from an apple store. If we were local friens, and I knew you well, most likely I would buy it. But people on internet don't know you. So they can't trust you.

monkeydelarge: So because of the asshole who treats his stuff like shit and then sells something with a problem or something that breaks a week later, all sellers selling used items have to suffer.
Pretty much.

monkeydelarge: I just think people should communicate their thoughts no matter how abrasive or whatever. [...] What is more civilized? People who are efficient at communicating or people who hide themselves? Think about it...
What does efficiency in communicating stands for?
You want to help your friends? You better tell your thouths directly.
You want to make a sell? If you meet someone for the first time, I'd say hitting them with unpoliteness is not the best way to close a deal. Sometimes, being a bit tough does work. Say, someone hesitates between two items, and just can't deside. You just walk to him and be like: This is the real s***t, leave that thing in place. But be carefull using that often.

I still say your point doesn't come across in your posts. And your attitude towards others is to be frank, appalling. In 8 separate pages, I've seen anger, accusations, impatience, putting words in others mouths (Plenty of that), more anger, destructive attitude, hypocritical viewpoints, and all of it from the spider monkey, You may turn around and tell me to point out examples, but I don't have time to list every single one of your motions. I will say, among the worst of your actions came from how you acted with Tarnicus. And he brushed off every pass.

Guess what, you were acting as an ass. You didn't shrug it off. You panicked. You freaked out. You lashed with any dissension or suggestion of one. And had you not presented yourself as an angry person to begin with. And you stayed up to my estimates at least till 4 in the damn morning, arguing that people should believe you, take you at face value and push anyone who wanted details. It didn't have to be much. Someone gave you an example to use as a template. Dozens gave you alternative methods and options.

So, now that you're down 50 rep, you've alienated 20 or so people, lost your composure, badly, and still return to this moment: Where you have given no more information, or reason to help, nor reason to even talk to you. So, reset button. You have a chance here to make right. Put out an apology to the people you attacked. With sincerity, with honesty, with understanding. Give a record, not a big one, just 2-3 things noteworthy with examples, that you can offer us. That means a product, a product value, a product number, like you would on Amazon or Ebay. No, you're not selling it here. No, you're not giving up personal information. You're telling us, what you have, what you think it should cost, and what others have perceived it to be. You might even find someone here who will want to buy it. Do that, make it easy for yourself and others to follow along, like it should have in the first place, and we'll work out a proper discussion.

You have a vivid imagination. If you had a more vivid imagination, you'd be dangerous to people and yourself. And you owe me an apology BTW. AND it really says a lot about you when you are defending a troll... I could write a wall of text describing your behavior and what you are, in response to your insane fantasy wall of text but you are not worth it. You find my attitude towards other appalling? Well, news flash. I wasn't put on this Earth to put a smile on your face.
