Site Feedback: Can the putting goths down be stop

That is a thread located in the site feedback forum (no it's not a typo they actually wrote the topic that way o_O). I found it to be an interesting read and even responded on the second page. I thought it would be nice to bring it in here for further discussion. ^_^

Definatly an interesting read. I'll have to come back to it again after I've slept, and perhaps leave few comments of my own. ^_^

^_^ I added more to it. I added the last paragraph because I felt a need to say more. No one has replied as of yet but sooner or later they will. I asked Dr_lecter1988 to move this thread into the ED subforum since it's more of a discussional thread. Hope you don't mind.

Sadly this will most likely get less exposure in the ED subforum, but it is a good place for it overall.

I figured as much but never-the-less, this is the logical place to put it. Makes more sense to put it here than the main forum. ^_^

I left a comment. Threads like that are really silly.

I pretty much felt the same way. It starts off with a guy, who dosn't even know what poit he is trying to get across. Then its followed by a bunch of people that don't know much about goth and Emo's any way.

I really just don't care about crap like this any more. I stated it pretty well in my comment I left. There just flammers and I got cold water waiting for them.

I agree. I didn't really care what they thought of me and other goths.... All that mattered was they had their opinions and they have the right to express them. But still, they didn't have to go and hurt our feelings, ya know? I agree with darkxmoon, they're all jus flamers.... stare

All I have to say is its sad what the world is comeing to. To where we attack eachother over small titles.... We all need to open our eyes and actually see we are all just people trying to get by and trying to find ourselves in this world. Why can't people just take people for people?

Although the original intent of the thread was to help end discrimination against Goths on gaia, the actual responses to it are more discriminatory than most.

Yea, it sux.

But, just tell people to go skrew a tree and blow a horse.

If they want to be crackwhores, we'll just let them make fools of themselves.

Then laugh in their faces when karma kicks in it's beautiful powers.

Totally agree with this, jus b/c Goths are dark, depressed, and some misunderstood and frighteningly evil, doesn't mean that they get to judge us by our personalities and different characters........ talk2hand

For example: Preps; they are all scanks, whores, and such. Why, u ask? B/c they mis-judge us in a way that the mind defines as "racisim", jus not by the kind of species we are but by our appearences and hobbies. We do the same; the are rich snobs who don't deserve anything in their lives. The ppl who have NeVeR worked a single day in their lives w/out coaxing someone else to do it for them. Why should we stand back and watch but do nothing about this?? 0o? neutral

The times these events are at their worst are high school; yes, the time for all of our teenage glorys to be fulfilled. Once Senior yr comes around, they go behind our backs and cause our future to be "uncertain"; to be doubtful of our own abilities and statistics....... stare

I tell you my fellow comrads, how far will we let this go??? 0o??? emo
