I’m sorry, but I think it’s best that I leave, and probably deactivate my account as well.
Since most of you don’t know, I had joined in the summer of 2009 primarily for the purpose of backing up two certain Randall fans. Since then, I have realized that they’re both extremists unwilling to see other points of view, one of whom just hating me (and as of late, ignoring my PM’s), probably for the reason that I don’t want to be brainwashed to be some freak intoletant of different sexual orientations. Even if I’m mistaken on the latter ignoring me lately, you both know who you are.
As for most others, I’m finding it quite creepy how lonely I feel here despite so many people on at a time. The reason is simple: most are ignoring me just because I like Randall, even despite I’m not as extreme as the two others mentioned. Most won’t even comment on my unrelated music over S 330’s, who’s only been here for a week or two!
And for the few who even bothered to acknowledge that I exist, I don’t even post much, here, anymore, outside of the MI forum. So, as much as I hate to say it to the few of you, it probably is best that I just leave.
So, with that said, I will probably leave for good. Farewell to all who cared.
Aw, this is awful. I know who you mean, and while I get on okay with one, the other is not a very nice person. I’m very sorry to see you go, especially since we were just starting to talk. I know you won’t see this anyway, but I’m very sorry about how they treated you.
I understand that we’ve had our differences and rough patches before Sgtyayap. But if this is what you must do, then I wont stop you. I hope you find what you’re looking for, a group of people that will share with you things that you hold true. Sorry that things never worked out here. We’ll miss ya though. And always remember, if you do decide to return, we’ll be waiting with open arms. Take care dude.
TSS put it beautifully, but if I may just say, you are a decent and good member, and you should never be ruled by people who are not open-minded and accepting of your differences.
As for being marginalised in terms of fandom, I have given you advice that you should take an interest in other people’s works, and while I appreciate you commenting in my thread, I felt that if you just did a bit more and attracted other people, they will start being more reciprocative towards your works.
And really, I have posted many, many works in my fan creation threads, but I can only count the number of people who actively comment on it on my fingers. And this is after two-and-a-half years being here. Sometimes I even wonder whether it’s worth the effort, but then I see a sweet and kind comment by one of my fans, and then it makes it all worthwhile.
I wish you all the best, and that you’ll find what you’re looking for in the future. And like I said, you’re not a bad kid. We will always welcome you back with open arms.
(sighs) Reluctantly I rejoined. Someone needs the courage to properly represent Randall fans over the two I mentioned, and it may as well be me.
Though, for clarification, the one bullying me was not the one you’d think. I have since made PM rules so that PM’s from him will be deleted before I read them.
I’m very happy you’re back. I can’t stand being away from this site. And I think I know exactly who you mean. He’s always been polite enough to me, but he is sort of…defensive. I know what you mean, and how you feel. hug
Hey dude. Not only you got guts to stay, but to represent the Randall fans here takes a lot of heart. I’m glad you’re deciding to stay. If you ever need to talk about anything, feel free to chat with any of us. We’ll be here if you someone to listen.
I really like this thread. It shows how much of a community Pixar Planet is, by a large number caring so much about another member. We are truly one big family.
However, like all other families and communities, we do have our problems! I see what you mean SgtYapap. It seems late that there has been a lot of negativity on the boreds, with people getting very defensive about their opinions. We all just need to keep in mind other’s opinions as well!
Anyway, I’m happy to hear that you’re sticking around! hugs
Dude, you are always welcome at PP. Some people don’t realize it, but when they leave, their presence is missed from members here. You’ve got a connection to the members here. But really, we appreciate you sticking around.
Welcome back, Sgtyayap. Remember to participate in other sections too and spread your comments like peanut-butter. That way, more people will take notice of your sandwiches! (Did my comment-fanwork analogy make sense?)
Anyway, you should always have the right to express your opinion, as long as it is not personal attacks against anyone or covering unfamily-friendly topics on this forum. If you are harrassed or bullied by any member, do not hesitate to let one of the Mods know.
I know you won’t see this anyway, but I’m very sorry about how they treated you.
