Poll: Regret

[JasonKaotic]

Not that I can remember. I'm good at avoiding bad situations. Sort of.
But I never post anything if there's a chance I'll regret it later. Although I guess you could say I regret my first ever post on this forum. It asked us our favourite bands, and back then I was still a semi-mallcore kid. Just in the middle of coming out of my mallcore phase. Enough said.

 

[SovietSecrets]

Sure a couple things here and there that were fairly stupid.

 

[Yopaz]

I regret nothing! I usually write pretty long posts then I start thinking if I am really in the right place to say something on the subject, or if my post is needed for anything, then I realize it's stupid and proceeds without posting.

 

[Not-here-anymore]

Heh...raise your hand if you remember Maxthereaper...

*raises hand*
It was before my time, but I know what happened/have seen the post. Is he still here in a different guise, or is he just gone?

OT: Regret? Not exactly. There are a few posts I think I could have worded better to get my point across/make a crappy joke, and a couple of threads I've started that I should have known in advance would get essentially zero contributions. But I don't regret these things, I treat them as a learning experience. That, and regret takes far too much effort...

Hell, I don't even regret the whole NNIJA debacle (we're still here, come say hi!). I do, however, regret not turning off the chat notification for the first half hour or so... My inbox got difficult to deal with.

I never regret anything, sure I wish I could have done some stuff more suavely, but regret anything? Hell no, no reason to. Nothing good comes from regret, but knowledge comes from mistakes. Regret is for people who are unsure of themselves. Grab shit by the balls and tackle life with your fucking horns for nothing can stop you. Don't regret not hitting that nun with your horns for there is another one up ahead, now plow here like you never have before.

I remeber him but what did he do?

I started the forum that made him get banned.

I've never done this [sub] hitler was right [/sub] OH NO!!

My hand is raised good sir. *Reads your post* YOU MONSTER! YOU MO-Actually I never really liked that guy, nihillist my ass.

Well in threads where somebody's ranting about religion the moment I bring something to the discussion as a Catholic I usually have hundreds of insecure, disrespectful folks jumping down my throat and telling me that I must hate the LGBT community and I support child molestation and I denote the theory of evolution and a whole bunch of other crap. I guess if there's one thing I should regret that would be it considering the consequence but I don't.

 

[child of lileth]

Yeah, but nothing huge. It's just stupid things I worded wrong.

 

[Yureina]

A few things where I said too much about my personal life. Otherwise, not really.

 

[s0denone]

I've yet to post something that I've regretted.

Be honest...
Not at one single point have you taken a step back, and then become filled with regret that you consistently do you best to come in first in every thread? I mean, is it some kind of competition you have with yourself? What's going on? Have you never regretted that, even once? At least reevaluated, and reconsidered?

Bear in mind, that this is in the spirit of the thread, and not meant as a form of personal offense. You may do what you damn well please, it's just that I'm a little dumbfounded, here

OT:
No. Never ever.

Well, maybe. No. I've been suspended, and in hindsight a lot of my posts have been stupid, mildly offensive or simply flat out wrong - not once have I regretted any of them, though. Hay gais, it's the Intertube, what can you do? Take it easy

 

[Aesir23]

Plenty. Usually when I don't organize my thoughts very well and I end up sounding like an idiot.

I'm always as honest as I can be.

I don't do my best to come in first. It just kind of happens. It is not a competition with myself, nor have I ever regretted what I've posted.

No offence taken.

I can think of quite a few posts I've regretted making, hindsight is a horrid thing. Luckily most the time i'm fine with my posts, but sometimes I do think shit I shouldn't have done that.

for example:

snip

I regret bringing up that thing with you (you remember, the thing, with the thing, on the thing). I'm very sorry for that, I hope you accept my apology as in hindsight I was being both a jerk and wrong.

 

[KaiRai]

Anything and everything of my own opinion. You quickly realise this is a gargantuan mistake when you look at the "quoted" section of your inbox.

Actually, it would be asking about downloadable ISOs. Mostly because I was squaky clean until then and got put on probation! Darn. I wanted that badge so badly too.....

I wasn't really sure what was going on until I though "Hay guy, check your inbox!!" - and sure enough.

It's no problem, my man, and there definitely no need to apologise. You'll find that I'm rather difficult to get angry or even offended in the slightest - Still, thanks for the apology, I guess, even if there is little reason for it

 

[molesgallus]

Yeah most of it was satire that got reported because people took it seriously.

Ah. So it's not just me...

 

[molesgallus]

I regret a lot of things in my life. But a forum post? I couldn't regret something so meaningless.

So just now you didn't regret not putting that in your original post as an edit? You don't regret double posting for no reason whatsoever?

If not, I'd say you're a little ill suited for the forums, bearing in mind that the general consensus is that one should abide by "Forum Law", also known as the "Code of the Fool".
