Vote honestly how you feel. If necessary leave some comments.

You forgot the option:

"DS is insecure and in need of acceptance"

There ya go!

Everyone around here obviously likes you. Why would you even wonder about this?

Bah..I don't know, I just can see myself being annoying sometimes so I thought I would have a look and see. If there is something I can change to better myself I would like to know what it is...I really hate not knowing if I am not accepted but people pretend to anyways, I don't know it just bugs me. I would rather know if someone doesn't like me then not know, if that makes any sense at all.

Okay, read the threads you participate in.

Now go read the threads Bill Thompson participated in.

Do you see a difference?

Believe me, if you were annoying anyone, they would let you know about it quickly and decisively. Or, early and often, if you prefer.

Yea, but people put up with Bill's bullshit for a LONG time, but I see what you mean. But do you think Bill had a clue that people didn't like him for a long time? Not until someone said something and someone else agreed, and then it spread from there, if that happened to me I would be devastated.

I've thought about dropping the forum for like a week just to see what happens...but it would be a bitch to get caught back up.

Bill knew what others thought of him long before he ever came here. Or before there was an internet, for that matter.

And I'm not trying to turn this into a B/T thread. I just wanted you to see the comparison.

Yea, I understand.

And if everyone comes here now and says you're annoying, it's a joke.

You can alter votes? Thats hilarious! I saw that and about shit my pants, very funny.

Huh? What are you talking about?

:wink:

DS, if you hadn't posted this thread I don't think anyone would have known you were feeling like that. But I suppose we all go through some uncertainty at first, and concern about how others are going to perceive us.

We'd miss you if you left. ;)

I'm not gonna vote. Be who you are, if people don't like who you are, find other people who do.

Needs another option.

"Who?"

I won't accept that... :D

Noticed your rank lately?

Lance, I love you.

I did that a while ago.

I know, and I saw it.

I just took the opportunity as it came.

Males. They say females worry about their self image...

P.S. You're pretty neat, but awful paranoid!

Um...kinda the whole point for the thread?

I didn't mean for this to turn out to a big deal, I was just curious as to what people thought (and I wanted to test posting a poll for the first time)

And thank you umop(and the rest of you) for the nice words.

To be honest there is a reason for my paranoia(on this subject), but I really don't want to get into that, it's a really long story.

Hmm. If there is a reason, is it still paranoia? (I.e., does the definition of paranoia require that it be unjustified?)

Hmm..I don't know, probably.

Restatement:

To be honest I have a reason for asking about this particular subject.
