Cop out. In that case, I'd like to chalk up this thread as me experimenting with my online identity of "one fed up I FART A LOT"


lol...awesome.

missy rules.

Thanks for speaking your mind Missy. I wish everyone here would say stuff like this more often to keep this place in check.
if it weren't for women, none of us would be here. end of story.

Actually if you think about, women as a race is more important than men. It's a simple concept, if there weren't as many women then world's population itself could not be sustain whereas having less men would not be as big of a deal. Hey it's the the truth so maybe we should all learn to respect the ladies more.

Nicky, you can't dismiss all women just because u had a few bad experiences. There's always someone that is right for u so don't hate.

As for the other comments, I didn't know what happened until I read this. Showing your collection of toys is great but showing how many hot girls u slept with is just soooo shallow. There are certain things u should keep to yourselves. As a guy, we all love beautiful women but degrading them as objects on a toy board is very disrespectful. You're making all men look bad.

yes.. calling a woman a "I FART A LOT" should not be tolerated. however, men did err when they allowed women to drive and read.

mikeee, if humans are overpopulating the planet, can't we agree that based on what you said, women are actually the problem? :wink:

And I love chicks, generally, even the crazy ones who exacerbate my own craziness (see, we're really all crazy.)

You can't really call what they do behind the wheel of an automobile "driving..." More like barely-contained chaos...

Women are the ones that carry a baby for 9 months, and childbirth isn't a picnic.

Add those factors to the equation and men are regulated to mere "sperm donor".

Thanks for saying that Missy!!!!

There used to be a larger number of lady skullbrainer & most seem to have gone away :cry:

Now that jltohru no longer is here to stop that shit in its tracks (along w/ Ramos' lighting speed locks), I guess we all need to help out.

Let's not let this BBS turn into a place that is uninviting & uncomfortable for the gals.

Missy is standup and speaks what should have been said some time ago.
I totally back Missy and what she says.

Get the garbage off this board. If you are a type who needs to vent or cross the line, find another board to express that stuff. Or better yet, find a human being and "speak" with them.

I would add that racist statements obviously have no place here or in modern progressive society. In the last year, there were at least three seemingly racist posts on this board. Not going to name names as it was months ago and the posters seemed to get the message and it hasn't continued.

Finally, I would also say that the sophomoric tit avatars and other junk are not needed. Just like some wouldn't want to see bouncing penises.

Can't believe this has to be discussed.

Posts like this and others I think show what SB is all about and help police the less desirable behavior on here.

Good to see everyone chime in and voice their disapproval.

late to the thread ... anything I would have said has been said well by others already.

Otherwise props to missy for speaking up and respect to all women who read this board. Guys, let's collect monsters, not be 'em.

The 'whatever' section doesn't necessary mean whatever. What's wrong wasn't venting but rather the words chosen. It's hard to control online since everyone's anonymous so what it comes down to is self governing. Now's the time that we TOY collectors matured! :lol:

see, I think that's where i see it differently. There was a time when I knew every person on this board personally. It was never about hiding behind some screen name. I saw the people here in reality, which is why its staggering to me to think that this is the kind of bs that flies here these days. this used to be the spot where i "hung out" online with friends...but now its well...diffferent.

Well hopefully if you continue to hang out and speak your mind this place can move back in that original direction. I haven't been here as long as you have, but I hear what you're saying - people around here "know" each other, even if it's not "in person" to the extent that you experienced. It does seem that there's been a recent change, but the "old guard" is still around and its presence is still felt - posts like yours definitely help out. I would be shocked if those you called out continued to act in the same manner. Change in behavior may not be enough for some to forgive/forget - but it can still go a long way towards keeping this a fun place to "hang out".

You rock, Missy!

Okay. every girl I have posted a picture of is someone I have cared about and still do and dated for a long time, you should maintain how you look even in a relationship it keeps things fresh, girls are a dime a dozen the right one is one in a million. The girl quote was someones signature on here, not my saying I don't think they should be collected. I don't hate females at all I have numerous close friends who are girls, I posted on a thread trying to make a guy laugh whos topic was crazy chicks.

Before I go on I would like to personally apologize to you for offending you.

Club skeezes I belive was your word when I said djing is cool because you can meet girls at clubs on skylars thread, oh wait sorry I believe YOU called them skanks, my bad. Didn't think you would take offense to that part at all. Considering I referred to women out at clubs as girls and you turned them into skanks.

You can always moonlight as a dj. You still meet girls like a male stripper but now ladies think you are good with your hands, can get them into clubs, free drinks, don't have to rock a banana hammock and don't have to dig the hundreds of bucks you make a night out of your pants. Plus if you get a macbook and Serato that will cut down the learning curve by about six months for learning to beat match. Golden.


i'll speak for him when i say.

1. he's (as far as i know) in a happy relationship. haha.
2. he doesn't drink
3. he hates club skanks.

but i'd probably look forward to the stories.


So yeah consider what I said some of the stories, nothing to take to heart and nothing saying true feelings it was for a laugh for someone going through a hard time. Again not trying to be confrontational at all or whatever and I unlike some people never turn anything into a personal attack which I get a lot for a stupid opinion that is simply that, if you don't like it laugh, think I am an idiot or whatever don't call me out on it though or make it personal, thats not neccessary really if you don't like what I say don't read it I could care less, I just don't want to read whining or call outs on it. I have had more love here than hate and been threatened to be sued as well and now am being told I hate women and basically the club skeezes thing I was referring back to what you said, but whatever. Most find it humorous but sorry I will really cut back on it as I can totally see how it comes accross as being offensive and like I said I really am sorry about it I never wanted to start any drama on this board or have anyone dislike me for my opinions, I respect everyones though, even if I disagree and I don't turn stuff into a fuck you personal attack, I still really like HMS and Roger even though we have gone at it, its nothing personal, its opinions, don't make it into something more than that. thanks.

in conclusion to this thread :roll:
throw your name up on your call out list followed by "club skanks" too, that would be nice. You said that long before you made up our new boys club and any one of us said anything, thanks for kicking it off and forming it guess that makes you the president of it.

Let me repeat that "Club Skanks" Can you believe that this girl hates other women so much?

Thats supposed to be an example of how much a call out and personal attack can piss someone off, just saying.

I've done both!

My eldest girl hits her teens this year and trust me, when she gets a lil' older, any guy that shows any disrespect to her, my family or me will not be welcomed back with open arms . . . :evil:

Well said Missy . . . shootin' from the hip! 8)

Other than the the sumatra71 post I'd been blissfully unaware of the extent of the problem. As a suggestion to the guys called out . . . I'd say show some respect, accept it, don't do it again and move on . . . Skullbrain's all about the toys! :D

Missy I'm sure if I ever have the pleasure of meeting you we'd get along fine as friends -- I'm serious. Although I might not admit to being Nicky G so you'd give me a chance to exhibit y normally rational self and judge me on that, and not a single message I shot out in a moment of upset, frustration, and anger.

But do think about it -- if you posted a message called "crazy guys" and went on to vent a little about how a guy was pissing you off, and guys are such dicks, etc. -- do you think there would have been an analogous response? No, probably most guys here would be like "yeah, we really can be dicks at times, sorry you're having some problems." I doubt it would have turned into the same furor. I don't think anybody (incl. me) ever said, or meant, that all women are nuts, worse than males because of their gender, or anything of that nature.

Generally I try to stay out of this sort of thing, but I have to say that Missy pretty much took the words out of my mouth. I just cringe whenever I read the type of sexist ranting she's referring to. While I would hope that these posters aren't the complete malletheads they come off as, I don't think it's too much to ask to keep opinions like that (as well as racist/homophobic ones) to yourself, if you're writing for a largely unknown audience.

Plus, it's great to see someone sticking up for their principles. Go Missy!

Thanks for posting your feelings about this Missy. For the most part I tend to steer clear of voicing my opinion on this type of stuff but lately things around here have taken a real downward spiral - enough to make even me speak out.

Like I've already mentioned to another member via pm, rather than just posting comments for the sake of a laugh, shock value or whatever, maybe it's worth erring on the side of caution and good taste and giving some thought to what your writing before hitting that submit button.
