I need to calm down

Archive: 41 posts

*hears everybody nod their heads*

I dont get why,
But on the psn I am the sugar spice, everything nice with added whipped cream, chocolate mouse and love sprinkled all over the surface..
I know most of you dont believe it, but (most of) the people on my PSN can vouche for that.

I dont know if its lbpc itself, the people on the forum.. or (probably) just me..
but I am unable to stay cheerfull, happy and positive on this forum.
I must have offended nobody, steve, vista (and probably some moderators) in that process and I apologize for that.

I need to calm down.
So.. besides posting a level here when its done,
I will relieve some of my (and some of your) stress by not getting involved in most of the forum topics (contest related etc).
And try to stay more on the BG for now.

Ill go (and stfu) for two weeks,
If thats going along fine ill probably make a month of it.

To give you some visual aid on how I reacted:
This is how I should react:

So for now, a big hug for people I offended..

It's not rocket science Luos, for a lot of people the site is built on being a friendly place where you can give/receive constructive and practical feedback. Criticizing or making digs at other peoples work for no other reason than you don't like it, or feel your work is better helps absolutely no-one.

That said, you've made tutorials threads/vids, and made many helpful comments since you've joined, you only seem to rant when the subject is the OC competition. It obviously brings out the competitor in you.		2010-03-05 13:00:00

...jules nailed it on the head Luos.

I think you are an amazingly talented individual and have been very helpful and thoughtful in several threads as well as some really great tutorials. Your pics of your 3dsmax work were unbelievable and blew me away. I can only imagine how frustrating it must be to have your arms debilitated to the state that you have said in another thread because of that same work. That in itself has to be horribly frustrating. I sincerely wish all the best for you and a hopeful recovery.

As jules said, it seems most of your rants have been on the OC thread as well as some of the OC entries level threads, at least the ones I have noticed. One thing that might help you out a bit is regardless of what you think or react, don't post until you have calmed down. You seem to be horribly critical of others at those times, but don't for one moment take in consideration that they are humans as well as what age they might be. Possibly when you are on PSN, you are nicer because you see a moving sackboy, but here you just see words on a screen and fail to recognize that there are real humans on the other side of those words.

We are all here to learn, share our experiences, enjoy the comradery, as well as our perspectives to each others work. Be nice, thoughtful, and caring. Would you want to hear criticism from someone that is whacking you in the head and screaming, or good feedback from one that is patient, caring and supportive? I pick B every time.

My suggestion.. make your comments in notepad and get whatever angst out of your system. Wait until you have calmed down and reread that comment, then rewrite it with a clearer more thoughtful mindset. Most of the time, you can still make your point, but do it in a constructive and more considerate manner. It may take a bit more time, but in all honesty the damage control that you have to do like this thread as well as the apologies take much longer than simply allowing yourself time to calm down and make a thoughtful and helpful post.

Good luck and all the best. 		2010-03-05 13:43:00

Hey luos now worries, many people get more bold when.. say they are writing a comment as opposed having a pleasant gaming session. I nice that u have taken the liberty to make a apology thread and I commend u for that. Personally, don't get too flustered with all these peeps who can get on your nerves.

Since I'm so perfect (sarcasm), I'll lend my advice.

To grammar nazi's: Let it go.
To luos: Let it go.

The best thing to do is just to keep looking forward. When you look back, you trip.

You know, water under the bridge and all that stuff.

Now if I could only follow my own advice I'd be golden.		2010-03-22 06:14:00

Ya, I have to say you are way out of line with what you said on the Christian Gamers thread. What's your problem? He was minding his own business and you have to start making curt remarks about religion.2010-03-22 18:25:00

“If you prick us, do we not bleed? if you tickle us, do we not laugh? if you poison us, do we not die? and if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? If we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that”

I don't think LBP Central is a very good site to let all of your emotions flow out on. Say if your depressed, scared, angry, hurt, or mentally ill, LBP Central isn't a good site for that. Just talk to your parents or closest relative.

And by the way, how can you hear people nod their heads?		2010-03-27 05:44:00

Not really my problem lol, and looking at the offtopic etc, I can tell that there is a lot of emotive talking,
also looking at a lot of blogs.. I notice a lot of emotive talking..
So.. you might think its not that good for it, but for a lot of people it is.



Just talk to your parents or closest relative.
at a certain age, you cannot talk about everything thats bothering you with your parents.
Also, besides my brother and mom, all my family died.
(dont worry, its okay!)


how can you hear people nod their heads?
You just did!

Music works always fine for me, to relax.

When I want to relax, I sometimes listen to Metallica. Not the most quiet band, I know, but some of their songs make me want sleep on on a soft bed made of feathers. I always listen to Fade to Black. If you have an ear for music, and possibly like metallica, I would advise you to go to Youtube, or get the "Ride The Lightning" CD, and listen to the song. Hear how all the sounds from guitars are in harmony. It works for me.

If not that works, I can recommend Pink Floyd and the two last songs on the "Dark Side Of The Moon" album, which is "Brain Damage" and "Eclipse" after each other. I always get goosebumps when I am listening to the last piece of "Eclipse".

I hope it helps!

If not that helps either, you could always try to make a poem about something peaceful. Like a butterfly?

"Oh, you teeny tiny butterfly with wings flopping through the air
Your entry in the world is almost impossible for us to hear
But all the joy you bring,
such a tiny little thing
You can make a child smile, and make the world a better place
In my opinion, you're happiness's face"

Now I wonder if happiness's is correct, I can't notice anything.		2010-03-29 18:55:00

@ moonwire,
Im no metallica fan, though their music with the orchestra is very amazing,
preferable I like to listen to various forms of electronic music (Ettiene de crecy/daft punk/thom york/aphex twin/cassius/chiptunes/chiptech)
But my average mp3 list is also filled with Otis redding (and other soul singers), Mozart, Various forms of jazz, pop, french deephouse and some rock (incubus/machine head).. but lets not forget some good rap like "Bons thuggs and harmony" for instance.
Just dont give me any dutch folksmusic, american country or fake gangsterrap like that half a dollar worth of rapper.

I havent written any poems in the past 8 years, and the ones I do have are not so tranquill and peacefull.
One of my best poems though, written a long time ago is this one:



He was just a small child
He was always happy and always smiled
He always played outside
Until one day his father died

He was just a small child
That never had a childhood
He never know what it was
It was something he never understood

Left by all the friends he had
They thought the kid was weird
Because he always cried about his dad
So they just disappeared

Now the kid was all alone
Always feeling weak and tired
Since then the kid was on his own
Never had the love that he desired

All he needed was that special shoulder
But he had to do it all by himself
Now the little kid is bigger and older
Big enough to reach that knife on the shelf

Thought about his dad that he missed
Closed his eyes and said goodbye
And then he cut his wrist
Leaving him on the floor to slowly die

But the little kid wasn’t sad
He even left his mom a little note
Now I'm finally going to be with dad
That was the last thing he ever wrote
(english isnt my first language, so forgive me for grammar mistakes)

Yeah but why though? I understand blogs are used for emotive talking, but I think that should stay contained in blogs, not forums. Blogs are for personal/business life, and forums aren't.


at a certain age, you cannot talk about everything thats bothering you with your parents.
Also, besides my brother and mom, all my family died.
(dont worry, its okay!)

I also said 'closest relatives', if that makes any statement. Are you, your mom, and your brother the only people related to you?

What I do if I'm depressed or angry, being a young adult, I usually shake it off, play some video games, and get over it.

I also am a Christian, and I usually pray to God for help whenever I need it. Other people might not, but I do, and that's my opinion.

@Luos
Wow, that poem blows away anything I have created, that's for sure, and now I feel a little uffish... I think I will have to open the tread "I really need a cheering thought"...

The poem rocked anyway, you did a great job with it.

all these invisible connections
to all these invisible people
i don't want to believe
i close my eyes
i don't want to see
i drain my heart
i don't want to breathe

what you are
is what we see
what you feel
is what we say

i wrap you up in red
to keep you close to me
i send you out into the night
to find a love for me
anything to make me see
to make me stay
to make me breathe

what you are
is what we see
what you feel
is what we say

today is the last day
i don't want to stay
today is the last day
i want to run away
what you are
is what we see
what you feel
is what we say
today is the last day
today is the last day

Your poem inspired me to post this. It's from about 5 years ago. I was heart broken at the time.		2010-04-02 02:35:00

Luos is a bit weird, so I decided to write a poem.

Who is it?
Who may it be?
Oh it's luos!
And a sausage in a tree!

Luos's brain, big as it is
Touches his veins, that goes through his wrists.
This poem makes no sense,
let's go jump over a fence!

Luos, oh luos, you are luos,
luos is Luos and luos is luos.
That thing bout luos, might have made you go WTF
But do not fear, cause he knows that guy they call Heff.		2010-04-15 20:57:00

Its been a while,
and therefore this might considered bumpage, sorry for that.

I would like to let you know that ive followed some anger management stuff, mostly focussing on my verbal communication.
Even though I still have the tendancy to curse a lot more among friends (but hey, who doesnt),
I have noticed that not only my verbal abuse of the english language has somewhat decreased.. but my mind has become less chaotic of it.

I think it shows in the way I have been acting on the forums lately,
I dont think I have flamed anybody or anything the last few weeks, maybe even longer.

I tend to think twice a lot more, and that not only helps in the way I talk on this forum, but also in me communicating with others.
Being more calm and sometimes just taking a deep breath before responding/replying/answering has allready resulted in better outcomes.

Thats about it,
cheers
