sunshine 2 #6 June 18, 2007 It's so annoying when people dramatically announce they're leaving. If they really wanted to leave, they would fuckin leave. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't bother to read those threads anymore. The people that mean it just go, they don't announce it. I'm not completely sure, but I think I'd rather see Walt's turd again then read another one of those threads.Chris _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chaoskitty 0 #8 June 18, 2007 I think they're hillarious. The best way to define yourself as an attention whore is to say "someone was mean to me, I'm leaving!" and wait for the influx of sympathy. But I really think its funny when people who dont skydive anyway, make a big deal about leaving dropzone.com, and then they DONT! (Not directed at you chris, I know you bumped yo head.)

You hit the nail right on the head, sista! It's all about "poor me, everybody feel sorry for me! Oh, no... I'm leaving. Try and stop me!" and then they just wait for that outpouring. Well, boo friggety hoo!! Don't let the door hit ya in the ass on the way out! I agree... it's funniest from those who either A) have ZERO skydives but for some reason love the drama on dropzone.com. and B) have 1 or 2 tandems, maybe even an AFF if they're special, think they are a skydiver, and will participate in discussions where they are telling people with a valid USPA license about their sport; and recently, like to draw a lot of attention to themselves through dramatic posts. (not that I'm saying experienced jumpers don't do this, of course.)Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just because their girlfriend breaks up with them or they get butthurt about replies to their threads doesn't make them bad people. It just makes them antisocial and outcasts.For the record, I wasn't speaking of anyone in particularSome people refrain from beating a dead horse.
