Do I? Other people have said that. It's cause I'm new, right? I feel like I've been on this site for months and I only started...what?...two weeks ago? :shock:

For me, it's not because you are new. It's because you are young and female and jumped into the forum posting a gazillion times a day (but even more than jeesh did).

For me, it's not because you are young and female or even because you post a gazillion times, it is because you, like Jeesh and many others before you -myself included- jumped into the forum with an arrogance ["Pay attention to me! I have important things to say and am an important person, even if I have not put in the work to prove it by reading more to learn about the environment I'm flinging myself into!"] that couldn't, and probably still can't, be justified. In my ever so humble opinion.

The takeaway lesson is that your place in this community is earned not by post count but by an attempt to learn the ways of the board, not so you can change who you are and be how you think we want you to be (too many opinions on that, anyhow), but so you can respect them and thus respect the people you are surrounding yourself with.


But again, please take this as an attempt at being helpful and wanting you to stick around.

I'm arrogant? I've never been called that before. I'm always so quiet. But I guess I'm just starting to realize that I'm different online than in my social life. I'm more brave and outgoing. In the real world I'm quiet and reserved. Unbelievable you say? Believe it...

I think the online world does that to us. It's the same for me, in some ways. Although I'm more outgoing and expressive on the net, I still haven't been able to find the courage to post so often in Milagre and such.

The internet changes us quite a lot. I think it's easier for people to express ourselves online, but then doesn't that also change who we are in some ways? It's quite confusing sometimes.

I would attempt to further explain but honestly, I feel like I've said all there is to say. Give it time; before we all know it, you'll understand exactly what's been happening here. It truly is an initiation of sorts. G'day.

Right. Initiation. I think I failed. Everybody is already tired if me :)

Why is posting in Milagre so intimidating Aes? I don't see a difference between there and the rest of the site.

I just never really know what to say. And I don't think I really have much to say at the moment. I enjoy staying behind the scenes for a while before jumping in. Besides, I think I need some more intellect before I start posting elsewhere very frequently. Maybe once I've entered University I will.

You sound smarter than I do though already. I think you'd do much better than I attempt to.

It really is! Luckily, the evidence of my "initiation" is (mostly) gone. In fact, I'm glad that the majority of my early posts are gone. Oh, except for the fact that now I'm old and boring.

Clowns are scary, thank goodness you don't look like it. But you don't sound like I imagined at all.

That's nice to know. I like defying expectations. Just curious, how did you imagine me?
