X JAKK posted:hyperbole isnt helpful to your argument, and it would also help to prove you dont care by simply not talking about me, but you obsessively reply to everything i say like its middle school and i just broke up with you. i think you are weird and have issues, and ill be your friend if you want, but you need to learn to relax about things in general before it starts to take over your real life And yet you pathetically keep making this thread about yourself when the thread you made for yourself floundered because I'll guess that nobody else cared but you. Instead of taking that as a lesson and just stopped posting where nobody gave you attention and you came back to a captive audience that loathes you. You are the typical upstart youtuber that claims that you are doing this for yourself or the art or whatever, but that is at odds with your thirst for attention or views. You keep insisting on hawking your poo poo rear end content on people that don't want it and this is why we don't want you around here. Please stop posting about yourself here and go make another thread about it again. But you won't, because you have that smidge of shame that prevents you from posting another thread that makes it evident that nobody cares, but not enough shame to actually admit that you're trying to do the youtuber rigmarole thing. Either way when you stop being pathetic and begging for I'll take the sixer. Hell, make it a day.

I'm not very happy with this outcome. If you're still reading this x jakk, I at least enjoyed you being around and I hope you consider coming back when you cool off. If you do, I think you should consider making a thread for you though. I think people would post in it and probably be pretty kind, considering how the awful fantasy thread went, and it would be without the baggage that comes from derailing this thread from its usual riveting topics

lol at Star Trek Voyager for being lost with limited power but inventing “the holodeck has its own power source that’s literally impossible to adapt to any other part of the ship” so they could still have the captain banging Irish hunks

The holodeck stuff is usually fine except when they try to make holodeck characters supporting characters on the show, like Vic Fontaine. Hell, somehow Vic Fontaine is a living breathing human in the mirror universe and that makes no loving sense. Voyager did the same thing with that Irish(?) bar they kept running 24/7.Gutcruncher posted:lol at Star Trek Voyager for being lost with limited power but inventing “the holodeck has its own power source that’s literally impossible to adapt to any other part of the ship” so they could still have the captain banging Irish hunks I was typing up my post when you did that, but exactly that. I forgot the holodecks had their own power thing because I was wondering why on Voyager, when every bit of conservation matters, they'd just leave the holodeck running 24/7.

i hope he comes back too but apart from the ppl posting mad @ him in here there are others reporting him mad for ages. and it's ridiculous, to me, to react that way to him, but at some point it's either actively probe a bunch of people he annoys or ask him to not post about the videos

I'd actually have been fine with Tom Paris deciding to re-create the Cheers bar and leave that running 24/7.

It was always entirely fair to ask that he not post his videos in here and maybe it should have happened sooner. Probably everyone has a better experience if that's its own thread. I think he was a fine poster outside of that albeit one often posting about cartoons no one in the universe cares about (instead of star trek episodes from 25 years ago that no one in the universe cares about)

What even was y'all's problem. Dude posted a couple of weird videos, mere mention of one not being made sends a bunch of goobers into a rage, and now a hall monitor has to step in because yall can't handle 2 weird videos in 152 page thread often about watching weird videos?

It's extremely obnoxious. If the bulk of his posts in this thread weren't about himself and he only did it once in awhile, or if he occasionally did a video that related to some kind of topic RLM or the thread is discussing, or if he had any talent, maybe it would be more palatable. But why is this thread for some tryhard burnout who lives in an abandoned head shop basement to post his videos about the Beetlejuice animated series or whatever the gently caress he does? AARD VARKMAN posted:effortlessly changing the subject, I'm down to the last 10 episodes of DS9 and golly that was a terrible Vic Fontaine episode with the gangsters I really like Vic Fontaine, and it's crazy how many features he gets despite coming onto the show so late in the run. Plus how can you hate an episode that gives us this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-Jq26BCwDs

Honestly it wasn't that bad an episode I guess, I did actually finish it without fastforwarding, unlike some other holodeck episodes

I think a bigger problem than holodeck episodes is time travel episodes where they inevitably go back to the 20th century (which my wife never fails to comment on when it happens, which is, uhh... which is often).

Now that you mention it, The Animated Series also had a holodeck. I wonder if Roddenberry always wanted a holodeck for the “desilu and paramount back lot episodes” but was afraid that at the time “room full of holograms” would be too confusing a concept.

The bitching, as always, was way worse than the subject of the bitching. The herculean effort involved in scrolling past a poster or using the forbidden art of the ignore function, instead choosing to slap fight a dude with 5 views. Great work thread, digging up at every opportunity.
