Oh believe me, not afraid to fail, shit happens.  I've already seen bosk is the top dog in the Rules thread.  I've run quite a few sites/forums, including one now, and know what/who to look out for quickly.

You were basically voted as the forum punching bag last week. I think that definitely says something more than "I fail more than the average poster."  :biggrin:

I don't do it because I think it's cool, I do it because it has become part of my common vocabulary. Try going an hour without saying "it."

I know I'm not one to talk about this, but you might want to think about typing normally. It seems to piss a ton of people off if you type like you are I.M.ing. I'm just throwing that out there.

I don't do it because I think it's cool, I do it because it has become part of my common vocabulary. Try going an hour without saying "it."
Saying "it" as in "it" or as in "curse words".

Because then you gave an example you can't really give. "It" is a necessary part of one's vocabulary. Curse words aren't.

But they are to me. I did use them so much because it was cool, at around 12-13, that now I can't stop. It's like a need re-hab for swearing.

@ ResultsMayVary: Yes, quite a few.  On GH:M the most.  GHWT bores me, GH3 is epic though, and RB2 I took a break from.

I don't have a RB2 guitar so it's hard to play that with the GH guitar but i play GH:M and GH:WT most of the time.

Haha. Old school. I don't know if its just me, but when i use the GH:WT guitar, i can nail anything on GH:WT or GH:M but when i play RB2, i can rarely hit hammer-ons without strumming.

Look at it this way:  swearing can be very effective, when used in moderation and in well-chosen spots.  However, when used too much, it just makes the person sound like a cretin with a limited vocabulary and not alot of creativity.  If you want to be taken seriously (in life, not just the forum), learn to use it in moderation, and learn some cool adjective/adverbs/nouns to commumicate your ideas.
