I'm being published

[Shagrath]

Alright guys, I've got some great news on my part. I'm being published! Yeah, I sent in a poem to a thing, and it's being published in a colection of 250 poems/poets. I'm excited as all hell. The poem's called "Machined for Love" and this is a really bit honnor for me. All the rites remain mine, as well as the copywriting stuff, all mine. Which is awsome, and I'm a semi finalist in the compitition, and winner of that gets $1000 US. Which is pretty good I think for a page of words.

So yeah, I've left a link to the poem. There's also an annual grand prize of $10,000 US, but I'm not being greedy, to tell the truth, I'm just as fine with the publication alone.

Dude, I give you much congratulations on this. If my material was published, I'd be the happiest motherfucker in the world. Or atleast one of them lol. I enjoyed reading that, and honestly, would never have expected something like that from you. Truly good poetry.

Thanks.
But to tell the truth, I dont know how to take that comment haha. Part of me wants to just thank you and let it slide, and the other half of me wants to call you an iggnorant bastard.
So I'll do neither of the two and just ask, why? Because i'm a semi morbid fuck?

Dude calm the fuck down. I didn't mean anything bad by that at all. It was a good poem. That's all I said. I wouldn't expect you to write something like that. How the hell am I an ignorant bastard? I made a statement. Most people can't write like that, you don't have to be an ass about me saying that I wouldn't expect it from you.

sorry, tried to make it light and funny... but apperently we cant do this on this board can we? ah well... ha... this place has seen way too much assholeness in the past and we cant take jokes any more...

we all gotta take a chill pill here.

Oh well. Whether it was meant in a light and funny and way or not, I've known alot of assholes here, so if you don't put any notification of it being meant in a joking way, I go off. I've had too much shit to get called an ignorant bastard and things of the sort. This has sadly gone majorly off topic, once again, my congratulations, and that's all.

[Shagrath]

it is going a bit off topic. But it's true, this place really does need to chill. ah well, again. Thanks. And again sorry. I should have put notification of my sarcasm. ah well....

One of the greatest faults on the net is the lack of tone and body language, and seeing as there has been a cascade of idiocy on this forum, people tend to be a little on edge. So it'd probably be safer to at least toss in a smiley if nothing else, because these kinds of misunderstandings seem to happen a lot.
Anyway, that's my own off topic bit tossed in.
