    I suddenly feel like I am just being a burden to everyone. What should I do to fit in better? Seriously.

    Well try not to be too serius. Look at the topics made by yeayea and stay away from them. And do not care what other people think.

    Well the best option would be to come back after you get older, but seeing as how we are stuck with you, start by not posting threads like "I'm leaving cause nobody loves me", or ones similar to the link above, or this one, for that matter. Just relax and think about what it is your trying to say before you hit the submit button, and you'll be fine.

    Repeat this ten times before you go to bed every night.

    And oh, you do realise what starting a post like this does to your image...

    Hey, I did one of those! Although it was to fend of Jinxed, lest he say "No" to my custom avatar because of all the bithing I did when he gave his "companion" one.

    How about just once saying something that takes up more space than your signature? Seriously, just once.

    Okay:

    I'm sorry to everyone I have ever insulted. I want to offer my appologies to all who have been insluted or annoyed by me or my ignorance. Please accept it, and let's start all over!

    Are you blind?

    You're STILL not saying anything longer than your signature. It's not that hard.

    I didn't check. Sorry.

    BTW, why do you think I have to say something really long? Isn't it annoying when someone says something that takes up half a page?

    Besides, I've posted things longer than my signature... just not many of them. :grin:

    I don't dislike you. I actually rather enjoy having you around.

    You're so easy to make fun of; you set up many, many insults, you use weak ones yourself, you rarely say anything with substance, and your brother is a moron. On top of that, you don't seem to recognize these flaws. You're a perfect target.

    Don't take it personally. :)

    You've just insulted me with your apologoy. NOW APOLOGISE AT ONCE!

    Creating a post that's longer than your signature really does require quite a substantial amount of effort. Usually, in most cases, one is required to waffle on about the same subject for many sentences, thus creating the impression of a high order of intelligence.

    The reality is, most posts don't call for replies longer than 1 or 2 paragraphs at most. Even then, that can be pushing it. However, there are times when a certain thread will come along and posting more substantiated thoughts is required. It is in those cases that posting a one liner can be most inappropriate.

    Of course, it is necessary to realise that those times depend on a case by case basis and anyone who is short of common sense may not notice them. It is up to the poster to judge what is warranted by the topic in question. If that poster deems that a one liner is necessary, than so be it. If, however, the rest of the forum users don't apreciate that individuals contribution, it is probably best for that individual to stop contributing and find something else, like another thread, to post in.
