Why do people leave ILX for good?

i generally only make song/album/artist threads when their momentum seems to have escalated beyond devoted genre threads or which would seem to appeal to more than the narrow band of ppl who keep up with a rolling thread (see: new foxing record), so far this has worked out fine

oh and especially if the artist/album doesn't settle easily into a genre thread

just keeping up the ilm convo to annoy deems at this point

hey its all energy right

me? most people who actually want to share something rather than solipsistically wank?

Just because people aren't responding doesn't mean they aren't listening and engaging, but I'm much more likely to engage with something when someone's actually chosen to single it out rather than putting it as a Youtube link in a thread with literally hundreds of others.

80% of my posts are the last in the thread. I'm just that boring!

I feel your pain (though experience suggests that this a manifestation of my real life).

I used to be a thread starter - twisted thread starter..

This sort of thing: “It obviously degrades my profession and hypnotism when it is used for crime.” and how popular they were, ahem...

I checked, and so far this year I have started ... three!

aw that shouldve developed tbf

i like ilx, i think i'll stay

but rarely contribute

How ILX makes me quiver
How ILX makes me smile
With all this love I have to give ILX
I guess I'm gonna stay with ILX a while

stockholm syndrome

Mookie I sent you an apology in the other thread

Hope you’re okay

To clarify I was bragging

there are a few posters acting like dicks lately and i don't always remember them doing so?

maybe they always were idk

say who and i can tell you

ive been a dick lately - time to take accountability for that and be way more aware

there was briefly a trend i noticed recently where longtime posters who never made an impression one way or another suddenly turned into attention-begging creeps but afaict they were either banned or left of their own accord.

Nah, I'm still here.

JK above by the way djh- I definitely know how it feels to struggle with the fear that others don't find you all that interesting. I was much more sensitive about that in the past.

you can't see people quietly nodding on the internet

incidentally, this shit right here is why people leave. I write a review on an entirely different website, which is a thing I do, because I write about music, and am immediately branded a troll, because I don't like a song.

the 1975

fwiw there's never any point in engaging with deej, but particularly when he does the four-consecutive-complaining-posts thing

also recommended to ignore whiney when he starts posting images

kind of hard not to engage when you are dragged into a thread by name, unsolicited

yeah. sorry

There are not enough eye roll emojis in the world

I’m actually starting to think Katherine really is a troll, tjeway shes repeating this IMMEDIATELY IM BRANDED A TROLL overreaction to k3vin being butthurt someone didn’t like his favorite band

Like an instant later jordan defended you & literally everyone else in that thread said you’re not a troll

I do think you’re being a tremendous baby though

for fuck’s sake can you please stop

You’re the one who “dragged this” conversation into a third thread or whatever

please leave me the fuck alone

Happily

That means "stop responding"

Thanks for the advice no one asked for

But that someone needed.

Lol flag post me then u wuss

I said I’d stop responding to her but I’m happy to waste your time

request granted

I do think you’re being a tremendous baby though

holy fuck are you serious

He’s always serious

but never mad

Is this the guy who shits up ILM for everyone all the time?

I’m serious that I think complaining across three threads that ilx has branded you a troll because k3v said ppl who don’t like the 1975 are trolling is OC

Leave your spergy beefs over there man. We dont care.

Mmmm Mongolian beef

Wait fuck delete

I thought she wanted to be left alone though, maybe you guys should drop it ? Taking me to ilx court for high crimes of arguing on ilx is probably not worth your time

The ppl who hop in these threads to pile on me for being a terrible poster but never engage in 90% of the threads I participate in are def my favorite part of ilx ... never change... mookieproof?
