Be Leaders Damnit, Not Followers

The following is directed to no one in particular

If there's one thing I don't like is ass kissers so they can be accepted. Didn't anyone tell you to be a leader and not a follower? Don't be blatant in kissing ass or jumping on a bandwagon so you think you'll get "in". I respect a person more by being themself rather than sucking up to me. It doesn't make me think of you favorably here on the server. It also will reduce your chance of ever joining TVB if that's what you want. Be a leader and be yourself.

Apply this to the messageboard too. You ain't gonna be cool be getting your 50 posts to lose noob status. People will respect you more by being articulate in what you do post.

I totally agree with you on that one FRAG!!!There are a lot of good people on this server that have no need to prove themselves or kiss butt in order to be in a clan. I believe TFC is like a sport or a hobby where a community of people play for fun and not for serious matters. I believe you should be yourself so people will accept you for who you are!!! Those of you who kiss butt aren't getting anywhere but increasing the redness on those pretty lips of yours.

Frag is absolutley, 100% right here folks.

We should all follow this doctrine that he has so wisely and generously layed out before us.

All hail FragFailure!! Hip, hip, horrah!!

Frag - yo let me in da TVB!!! u r de bestest admin evar duuudde!

Now come on. By giving out advice like this you expect people to follow it right? Well then now you've gone and made them followers! It's kinda hard to instruct someone to lead, you see, they just have to figure it out on their own.

However, on a ligher note - I will be accepting devoted followers during this month of January. You must be a fanatical leftist (or rightest - just so long as you are extremest) with a large disposable income. I will also need someone with construction skills to erect a shrine in my honor.

That is all.

Carry on.

That's the stuff that annoys me more than anything else.

LOL - that's the stuff that supposed to boost your ego!! Only the rest of us are supposed to get annoyed! LOL - damn I wish people idolized me.

Speaking of idolizing me - the offer still stands from two posts up.

I got my soapbox back from Greebo. His wonderful 56K connection lagged him to death. I snuck right past him, knifed him and ran off with the soapbox.

I agree with you Frag and with a few of the others.. I kind of find it very shallow of
a person to just kiss up to somebody or group whatever it maybe because he/she just
wants to either fit in or gain something from you.

What I find even lower is a person that Smiles in your face when you are around and talks crap about you when you are not. Don't like me for who I am? Thats your problem and not mine is how I feel about a situation as this..

I would not want to be around a person such as this anyway....

Two hours of Oprah and one week pass as frag realizes that Bak ate his soap box.
