What's DMusic coming to?

CowgirlBebop	Date: September 27, 2002 @ 8:41 AM Ok. First I joined Gnutella, and that was all well and good. I had no clue what awaited me once I finally found out about DMusic. So I came over here. And that was all well and good---for like a day. I don't know. I don't know how people feel about me around here, but I always have this uneasy feeling that some of the hostility towards certain members includes me. What happened? And can we work it out?
NeoFlash	Date: September 27, 2002 @ 8:47 AM What are you talkin about?! If anything, most of DMusic hates me. I don't see any insults directed at you.
CowgirlBebop	Date: September 27, 2002 @ 8:51 AM i'm in high school, i feel a lot of hostility towards the younger set---many comments about "School" in general and the people who inhabit them...
losthadon	Date: September 27, 2002 @ 12:50 PM Umm, I do not detect much hate on here at all. I mingle with the TRU artists of Dmusic who do not have it in them to inflict insults upon others, especially if they are innocent! Cowgirl, I got yo back, don't worry. The only ones that constantly hate up in here are not here for the music but simply because they are bored... Holla
OmegaDaemon	Date: September 27, 2002 @ 1:04 PM and some of us are in the music on dmusic because we are bored too, but that doesn't mean just because someone is bored they're going to wreak havoc on the peaceful dmusic site right? I think some people just can't do anything constructive with their time... so they be destructive.
GrooveTonic	Date: September 27, 2002 @ 1:29 PM sometimes I see people using age as a means of invalidating a persons opinion or view... or associate a certain behavior to it. Although, I havn't seen it too much (although I havn't paid too much attention to those forums).
OmegaDaemon	Date: September 27, 2002 @ 1:35 PM age in this place should have little meaning, I think that's why we don't have to fill out all our personal info when we join dmusic (I think), but anyway even if we did fill out the info it's not displayed for all to see.
backmann	Date: September 28, 2002 @ 9:20 PM gnutella.com and then after a month or two, I came to dmusic.com. But I never felt any hostility towards me, I'm 17 and I'm currently at my last year of high school. PS: that hostility is not coming from me, is it? :)" id="21311">hey, girl, I travelled the same road you have. I first joined gnutella.com and then after a month or two, I came to dmusic.com. But I never felt any hostility towards me, I'm 17 and I'm currently at my last year of high school. PS: that hostility is not coming from me, is it?
silverwolf121	Date: September 28, 2002 @ 11:40 PM I just feel old when someone states their age and their younger then me. Nutten personal, no hate here.
forrix	Date: September 29, 2002 @ 1:25 AM i think boredom has a lot to do with it - some people have nothing better to do than get online & bash others to make themsevles feel bigger. the anonymous nature of the internet doesn't help that. don't sweat it! we're here to have fun, pass time, and share music. just smile when you feel hostility and shrug it off. in 10 years, who's gonna care? (hell, in ONE year for that matter). life's too short to hate!
NeoFlash	Date: September 29, 2002 @ 1:26 AM heh look in the DMusic points poll, talk about hate.
azhazhellfire	Date: September 29, 2002 @ 7:06 AM hey, i get hated the most, everybody always given me shit. ye gotta not give a shit, if you care it makes it worse. meep
Cryxan	Date: September 30, 2002 @ 4:03 PM Age shouldn't be a factor, but it is to some people, unfortunately. The solution? Don't announce how old you are. Tell individuals once you start talking to them privately, if you want them to know. But it really doesn't matter, so why give shallow people a reason to judge you? As for the hate, I think for the most part it's a result of the less mature crowd not being able to discuss their differences with diplomacy. At the same time, some of the people that are disliked are disliked for valid reasons.
Bruticus	Date: October 10, 2002 @ 4:59 AM So High school eh? Can Bruticus be your prom date? I can cause the greatest falling out. :-0 Bruticus mad a funny...
Psyence131	Date: October 10, 2002 @ 9:04 AM i dunno, i don´t hate anyone on here...i just dislike things goi the direction they are..uploads suck n how the hell am i gonna make peeps here mah ish?..heh.. stay happy..i got love..pz..
CowgirlBebop	Date: October 10, 2002 @ 12:01 PM Well, I was satisfied to let this thread die, but whatever. I have dealt with this. And Bruticus needs to start writing Bruticus's name in the correct person---because Bruticus is starting to annoy Faye Valentine since he's in all these threads. JK. Well. Sorta. Cryx had a point up there, about people being disliked for valid reasons---my problem was that I couldn't figure out a) if people didn't like me to begin with and b) why they didn't. I hope that I have caused no pain on this site---because truly, I care about it a great deal. End of discussion.
Bruticus	Date: October 10, 2002 @ 12:12 PM My sentiments exactly...
CowgirlBebop	Date: October 10, 2002 @ 12:15 PM Hey! Not Bruticus's sentiments?! Hooray!
Svensta	Date: October 14, 2002 @ 12:18 PM here's something youngsters should take into account: First off I am not age-discriminatory, if I don't like you, I found a different reason, on a more personal level. Probably because you are an idiot and shall remain so regardless of your age. Okay, a problam for youngsters: I don't know your individual living arrangments, but when I was 15 years old, I had my crusty old modem and my BBS and then later my college accounts. Now you are (probably) living at home, and under contract with your ISP to provide you with internet connectivity. Most ISP's require either residency proof (cable-modems and DSL lines) or credit cards (most dial-up ISPs) I had NEITHER at 15 and I bet most of you don't either. Meaning your parents set it up for you, and you may or may not pay them back. If the RIAA gets the courts to force ISP's to resolve IP's. they are going to find you. Then they will sue your PARENTS. You could cost your family a car or a house if this goes through. It's unfair, because you will be victimized by a law when you are still too young to vote, but the ISP will have the bill-payer registered, and THAT person takes the fall. Be careful. Don't rely on your little firewalls to hide you, they don't.
creativetim	Date: October 14, 2002 @ 12:51 PM Just wanted to say that CBB you're golden, don't let yourself feel hated. As for Svensta, you just scared the crap outta me!
CowgirlBebop	Date: October 14, 2002 @ 3:48 PM Aw, Svensta doesn't scare me... and plus I'm nearly 17. Ha. Plus, my ISP requires NEITHER. And I'm not SCARED of the RIAA. I just HATE them. Thanks, Tim. Wow, I really thought this thread was dead.
