Eh, self-deprecation just isn't valued enough around these parts! Larry Send a noteboard - 08/07/2012 05:51:11 AM
That chat, which kept popping up incessantly while I was desperately trying to get to the wotmania page to just elect to leave the group, was so moronic, that most of the people who came over here would be at a loss as to how best to respond.

Suffice it to say, there are people in that group who have taken slacker/loser stereotypes to new lows. It is the dregs of the internet. I think they mostly hang out on the WoT page at this site, which explains why my interaction is limited (as well as explaining a whole hell of a lot about why they're so pathetic).


I was immediately thankful that I had changed my settings a few days ago to "Appear Offline" when I read a bit and saw that apparently some wanted some semblance of "Chat." I used to visit 10 years ago, but the last few years of wotmania's existence that environment was so toxic/stupid that I largely avoided it in order to lower my blood pressure.

Sounds like the dregs of that environment, like pond scum, have floated up over there. I don't think those were WoT MB regulars though, but "chat regulars," those parasites that made the old site feel like drama central for the socially inept.

I only have five people who used to visit wotmania on my two FB accounts. Now I recall why I didn't add more.

Yeah, So There Is a wotmania Facebook Group Now Joel - 07/07/2012 06:14:02 AM 2585 Views
Plus its a chat service that doesn't require any additional software or logins. Stephen - 07/07/2012 11:41:05 AM 1018 Views
Meh, I still prefer Skype. Joel - 07/07/2012 12:13:42 PM 1144 Views
Liar and Deceiver! 100+ people did not "join", they were merely invited! TaskmasterJack - 07/07/2012 06:29:16 PM 1100 Views
Yeah. Nate - 07/07/2012 06:41:27 PM 1135 Views

Merely ignorant of FB operations (and, geez, guys; you act like I barbecued your dog.) Joel - 07/07/2012 09:13:02 PM 1162 Views
Rawr! I'm an ogre! I've got layers like an onion! Get out of my swamp! *NM* TaskmasterJack - 10/07/2012 12:35:16 AM 530 Views
Please start "Child Molesters of the Taliban" Tom - 08/07/2012 02:08:31 AM 993 Views
It's tempting. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 10/07/2012 12:35:37 AM 465 Views
i didn't see that, where is it? *NM* Yunalesca - 08/07/2012 03:06:19 PM 577 Views
At the top of the page, underneath the photographs of people who "joined"... Rebekah - 08/07/2012 04:43:12 PM 939 Views
And you can all go fuck yourselves. Tom - 08/07/2012 04:42:58 AM 1058 Views
Well, I CAN, but am married now, so there is less motivation to do so. Joel - 08/07/2012 05:17:44 AM 1118 Views
if you think that's bad Yunalesca - 08/07/2012 03:11:18 PM 1146 Views
why? what's the point? Yunalesca - 08/07/2012 03:05:27 PM 1061 Views
Presumably, because many wotmaniacs are on FB but not RAFO. Joel - 08/07/2012 03:49:05 PM 1035 Views
Actually, for once you aren't the center of the roasting, Joel Larry - 08/07/2012 07:15:13 PM 1107 Views
No, just the RAFO messenger, which is apparently bad enough. Joel - 08/07/2012 07:51:33 PM 1056 Views
I am fairly hostile toward "community" matters Larry - 08/07/2012 08:38:16 PM 1054 Views
Apparently you are in good company there. Joel - 08/07/2012 09:11:22 PM 1003 Views
Ya know Joel... Isaac - 08/07/2012 07:21:23 PM 952 Views
It was just a timely analogy. Joel - 08/07/2012 07:40:26 PM 1171 Views
Of course it was, it's Timely for you because it's always on your mind Isaac - 08/07/2012 08:07:18 PM 1065 Views
That was what I said, yes. Joel - 08/07/2012 08:26:34 PM 1019 Views

*dopeslaps* Yunalesca - 08/07/2012 08:05:42 PM 1018 Views
It was an analogy, for Petes sake. Joel - 08/07/2012 08:24:58 PM 1006 Views
Not everything requires an analogy... *NM* Stephen - 08/07/2012 09:48:51 PM 494 Views
True, but when people miss the point a little illustration can be helpful. Joel - 09/07/2012 03:20:02 AM 997 Views
Preach it. *NM* Rebekah - 08/07/2012 04:42:13 PM 584 Views

Ironically, my perpetually weird hours mean I usually find myself involved in Stateside discussions. Joel - 08/07/2012 09:07:41 PM 1097 Views
So yeah, I don't think I'm going to participate in the group at all. Stephen - 08/07/2012 09:44:40 PM 995 Views
I couldn't figure out how to disable the chat from regular fb chat. Lici - 08/07/2012 10:00:00 PM 1118 Views
I figured it out. Stephen - 08/07/2012 10:47:03 PM 965 Views
I use that to exclude everyone from seeing my online/offline status Larry - 08/07/2012 11:13:51 PM 1039 Views
Cool. Joel - 09/07/2012 03:15:45 AM 1021 Views
I'm not as vehementally against it as some. Stephen - 09/07/2012 10:16:54 AM 987 Views
