Derek™ Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Randy summed up what I was planning to write later tonight or tomorrow – a no meme, genuine response on what's happening vs. what the skewed perception is. There's a lot of accusations of seniority and elitism that get thrown around these days. (And it's definitely fun/ny to lean into those, sometimes.) But if you can't tell the difference between what went down on page 1 of this thread, and - say - one of us browsing sale threads and posting "lol great, another pandemic collector. This is all trash. Just quit this hobby you fucking casual"... I mean, I don't really know what to tell you. The same people being accused of bullying or acting as part of a toxic tribe are also the same ones who've actively participated in MUSIC discussions over the last decade. (Stop yourself right now and realize this is different from seniority. Think critically for once in your life and realize that's entirely separate from what I'm saying here.) Like Randy said, there are already sources and platforms to be spoon-fed PO links. Reddit and Facebook groups come to mind instantly. But VC has generally been about more than just that, and a lot of the "old-timer" members know that. If you don't understand that, or don't like it, that's perfectly cool... but with that, your ignorance comes at the cost of being able to use terms like circle jerk or toxic tribe. You forfeit those when you're too fucking dense to realize the heart of VC has always been the community and the discussions. Not the SRC links. I'm not gonna' keep rambling because at this point I'm just repackaging everything Randy took the time to convey an hour ago. I'm only writing this to dispel the bullshit notion that any of us are actively opposed to newcomers discussing music. I think it's cool to see discussions on artists and new releases – especially if they're relevant to me, but even if they're not my cup of tea – and that's absolutely not coming from Wasda or the folks that generally gravitate to his threads. Which is why nothing of any value is lost when topics like this one go off the rails. Moreover, I think it's complete bullshit to perpetuate this idea that myself and several other VC old timers get off by shitting on anyone who's enthusiastic about bands we don't like. Couldn't be further from the truth, and I hate the idea of a guest potentially seeing some MrSchizo rant and having it shy them away from joining and partaking on the boards, for fear of VC vets dismantling their tastes or whatever. That's nonsense and needs to stop. Bronchitis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelby Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 I don't actually mean it if it offended you. Matthew is the actual stalker and I'm trolling him the same way I did on Reddit when he decided to dig through my profile and respond to old posts. It's also why I keep saying Matthew. It elicits the reaction I thirst for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate that he’s boiling on a Sunday night but all these passive aggressive post-reactions aren’t nearly as entertaining as full-blown gif meltdowns. Ah well.

It's like, hey, leave some robo-pussy for the rest of us, cool guy.

Derek™ Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Worth calling out is that even after the swirl of this thread from last weekend, it remained dead and quiet since Sunday. In general, actually, I'd say that VC was calm and cohesive this past week. Imagine my complete and utter shock at seeing this topic bumped the moment babby's ban was lifted for throwing a temper tantrum. I know you lack reading comprehension and the ability to think critically, Scorp, so I'm going to break it down for you and keep it super simple: there was no actual bullying in this thread. A fellow VC old-timer – without a staggering post count – asked a genuine question about our resident spam bot. It blew a fuse and got defensive, so a couple of us stepped in to weigh in on that. Since you seem so fixated on post counts (being the first thing you mentioned when throwing in your 2¢ on page 1), I would actually say that a member with 2.7k posts was the one bullying someone with ~360. That's when Randy stepped in, followed by the rest of us. We all dropped some posts that you didn't agree with. (Despite, y'know, you allegedly saying that you have us all blocked.) You could've handled that in a number of ways. Not that I was expecting you to turn the other cheek or take it to private messages, but you could have at least kept that bullshit back-forth isolated to this thread. I think we all would've been fine with your signature brand of low effort gifs, and repeated displays of zero brain cells if you had confined your meltdown to just 1 thread, where it was not necessarily welcomed, but at least relevant. But what happened instead? Lil' baby Scorp shit his undies, waddling off into multiple threads to cry and scream. Threads you've never once contributed to, or for artists you have zero interest in. That's cringe. That's why you're a shitter and will always be a shitter. You got so flustered and upset that your arguments are less than worthless in this topic, that you tried to go around and smear us in other discussions. No one wants to read your bullshit in this thread; what makes you think other users want to read it in completely unrelated ones? Have a little empathy you fucking socio-dunce. That's why you got suspended. Not because we're all some tightly knit toxic tribe that shuns or bullies outsiders with shit tastes or few posts. But because you're a walking meme that eats out of our hands, and lacks the self-awareness to realize you're the exact joke we all make. The schizo who can't keep a lid on, and has full-blown meltdowns when he gets flustered. All while pretending that we're on his block list, but actually living so rent-free in his head that he can't help but spam unrelated threads with his personal beef. tl;dr – VC is better off without you and the last week has proven that. You're oblivious to what the real issues are, and always will be. I hope you lose your cool again and get suspended for even longer. Until then, cry more or fuck off entirely.
