Why are you getting so defencive? If I were pissed off, I would let you know. I have no idea why you assumed you hit a nerve. Chill!
Well you did insult me, told me to kiss your ass, etc. Sounds like i struck to nerve to me!
No, hon', you got it all mixed up. The truth is, I do not care. If I did, I would have dropped out long ago or conformed to the mob mentality/jumped on the bandwagon . You could trace back my posts to a year ago. You'll see what members said about me then. I hadn't even ever shared any pictures at the time. They were already betting that I was a guy, a liar, this or the other. Again, don't waste your time worrying. Your question is legitimate. Trust me, I wouldn't answer it if I thought it wasn't. The answer to your newest statement is: I am a strong believer in individualism. If I compromise my belief to get pleasure and favourable statements from people, I would be compromising my individuality and self. No matter what anyone says, the truth is abstract and independent. I am still me, facts that happened or existed still is. . . . Chill and enjoy the forum . . . or anyone can choose to make it miserable for himself/herself by worrying about someone else's life and fabricating stories or spreading rumours to feel better about himself/herself.
My question in my last post wasn't new, it was the very last question i asked in my first post to you, if you would scroll up and read again. You just chose to ignore it and come straight out flaming me in your response. But true, you have the right to individualism, and can claim that if you wish. Personally i think that's just an excuse. There's no reasons why you would need to continue to act as you do, and still not be your own individual. Like i've said already, nobody here wants to see pics of headless shots. When people look at members pics, it's to see the person behind the screen name, or to share a personal experience. Your headless shots, are nothing but your egotistical need to show off your body. You're not fooling anybody with any other reason.
And you're right, the community here seems to jump down on anybody who seems to be an 'attention whore', especially the women. But you certainly aren't making the situation better with this constant attention to yourself. And i know you're claiming that you don't care about what other thinks, but if you don't, then why bother posting your pics at all in the first place? Just let it go, the only responses you get are negative, so why bother? Because you want to share yourself with us? But nobody wants to do anything with you as long as you perpetuate this behavior.
I'm not saying you have anything to prove to us. I for one couldn't care less if you posted your face or not. I'm just saying you should let go. Nobody is enjoying what you currently are doing, and you're only creating more negativity towards yourself. So why put up with yourself? Just to give us the finger and say you don't care what we think, and continue doing it? You claim you don't need care what we think of you, but you keep posting pics, so obviously you do want people to regard you.
You claim that you're your own individual, that you don't need our acceptance of you. I'm not too sure how aware you are of Alfred Adler, but one of his theory, and one that's highly regarded in the human behavior sciences, is that humans have a high need for social acceptance. We're a communal-oriented animal, before we even developed language. We've always gathered in groups, because groups offer a higher chance of survival than being an individual. So the need for social acceptance, for us to be accepted by a community, is innate to us. Those of us who did not have a need to be socially accepted by our peers and community, were ostracized, and died in the wilds. That need for social acceptance is just as important today as it was 100,000 years ago. Our morality and how well our community regards us is based on how much we value being socially accepted, and how well our behavior aligns with this. Those who do not have a need to be socially accepted by others, we call anti-social. These people don't care what others think of them, and do their own behavior out of their own implicit needs and desires, and not out of what society wants. When they do things that are against society, society looks down on that individual.
The need for social acceptance is important in almost everyone. There are a very tiny majority who are truly anti-social, who don't have this need, either because the society has injured them so many times that they no longer need it, or perhaps it's even biological. And these, society shun and hate. But most everybody has this. You can see this in the clothes people wear, to fit in with a certain clique... some of the more wild, like punks or goths, would claim they're being their own individual, but they're not, they've only decided that a different social group (the Goth, punk groups) is more important to them then general society.
And here, ATOT is another social group. Explicit or not, there are certain 'rules' or norms that this group requires. You might say you don't have any need for social acceptance by this group, and if that really is true, then why are you here? If you're not going to try to be socially accepted here, you're only going to ostracize yourself... like what's been happening. Everytime you do what you do, the community comes out at you with negative reactions... and everytime you just come back and do the same thing over again. Why bother? Why bother with this community at all if you're not concern with whether they like you or not? Why bother with this community if you're not going to attempt to be a part of it?
I'm not saying you NEED to be a part of it, that you NEED to do what the community wants you to, but why deliberately give it the finger and do what you want to do instead?

Actually, Caitlion, there have been at least two AT picture albums before you became a member. However, the two sites went down.
One was ran by Paulsonator. He had taken charge from the original host, who I think left.
Then there was the other one ran by Jerboi. However, Jerboi was banned from the forum. As a result, he didn't maintain the site for too long thereafter.
"i would.. but im not quite sure how to go about it... anyone want to make one with me? also, do we have to have permission? and from who?"
No, you do not have to have permission, except the consent of the persons whom you list. But generally, if someone's picture is on a picture gallery site, it's because the person requested or permitted it by sending a copy to the person in charge.
Seriously, what the hell is wrong with your face. just post it. Also, could you start writing your posts with cliff's notes? I have struggled to skim through the 8-page essay that your posts on this thread amount to.Originally posted by: luvly
