View Full Version : This will surprise most of you-- I'm going to say it anyway

This is going to seem contrary to what I've recently posted but hey, we are all contrary creatures in the grand scheme of things and on that philosophical note, I will say that the following statement is a product of my conscience, that has been goading me to do this. I'm feeling guilty about my recent post, so just hear me out, okay?
Those of you who have continued to fight for BOP's existence in any way, shape and form, I have nothing against it and in fact, I even want you all to have success in that goal. All I'm saying is that I won't be joining you in the cause but I will not dismiss or degrade your efforts. If the show does come back, if and when it will happen, then I will happy about it and I will want to share in that good fortune.
And to those of you who continue to make disparaging comments about what the others are doing, please don't do it anymore. It doesn't help matters and in fact, it does bruise people's feelings. There's no percentage in what you're doing, so it would help if you would simply stop doing it. You're only going to make the good people here very upset with you.

I've never told people to stop, people can do what they like, I'm in no position to do anything, but when I see people saying that it will help achieve something, that's just and out-and-out lie. By all means, continue fighting, do whatever you want, but you have to know that WB will not listen, they want the show to stay dead, it's not just about ratings, it's about appeasing certain execs within the company, so certain other execs can stay in power. And they're not going to reverse their decision (which would cause untold problems within the organisation, not the least of which jeopardising their own job) because of a few letters and the like.
Do you people understand now? There are much more factors at play here with the BoP cancellation, it is now beyond anything we here can do, it's over! There's nothing dispariging about that, just the truth!!

Not in this case, read my post above for the reasons why.

Thank you larterx1. I'd just like you to know that I never held any of this against you. We all said some things that shouldn't have been said. I look forward to seeing your posts on the forum as I always have :)
And Frank, what happened to your thread? *snicker*
Larry
11-30-2002, 08:23 PM
I am guided by the dictates of my conscience, that is all. I will never again post a negative thread or post negative replys in regards to what other people are doing to help keep BOP on the air. That is my solemn vow.
I shall become the blue bird of happiness henceforth and forever more.

Neptunekix, thank you and if you could please use my true name of Larry, it would be greatly appreciated. I can't stand the username I chose for this forum.

Why don't you ask Oracle to change your username then?
Larry
11-30-2002, 09:01 PM
Oh, well, perhaps I might. I don't want to bother him about that right now. I'll just leave it alone for now. Maybe later. I'll just ask people to call me Larry, that's all.

Just be true to yourself, Larry, with whatever your feelings are, be yourself... always!
Larry
11-30-2002, 09:45 PM
I try. The heavens and all the gods only know I try.
TheWraith
11-30-2002, 09:48 PM
That's all any of us can do. Don't change because others want you to, be true to yourself, that's the Larry I want to see here.
Larry
11-30-2002, 09:56 PM
I only wish to be whom I have chosen to be and no one and nothing will persuade me to be otherwise.
TheWraith
11-30-2002, 10:00 PM
Good, because no-one can be as good at being you as you can. So be yourself and do it well.
Larry

By the way, the old saying that a leopard cannot change his spots is not always nessessarily the case, as everyone will find out in due course. Anyone can turn a new leaf and I am no exception. I've only chose to make it the rule for myself.

Why should you change your spots? You've done nothing wrong, nobody has here...

You're a good man, Larry. It takes a true man to admit his faults. It's a testament of your character that you try to set the record straight. Peace.
Larry
11-30-2002, 10:58 PM
Ah yes, Frank but it is my choice to change and there are others on this forum who will agree with me in that regard. You see, my situation is different from yours in that I have not yet thoroughly inflamed and infuriated most of the people and I would not dare to do so.
It springs to mind the story of David and the lions or is it Daniel and the lions?
At any rate, I merely took safe steps away from the pit to observe it while you, Frank, by ever increasing degrees, have thrown yourself entirely into the lions' awaiting mouths. Please take my advice and do not infuriate the lions any more than you already have.

Way to go Larry. Here's a man who will stick to his guns but admits when he makes a mistake. You offer an opposing view, express reasons for feeling that way and redeem yourself as a guy we can respect, even if we disagree with you.
There's a lesson to be learned from that. But some who take pleasure from infuriating others and after many posts, still hasn't gotten the point.
Larry has said some harsh words at times, but still in the end is able to walk away unharmed because he understands and maintains a level of respect towards others.
He can understand that we will disagree and not feel the need to constantly beg for us to believe him.
No, a leopard can't change his spots.
But a leopard is made up of more than spots alone. The tick that sits on the leopard's back however, has extremely narrow options...

Ahh, excellently put, Angie. It's always nice to see that when a person can redeem himself in the eyes of his fellow members, he can find friends who are willing to take him under their wings. So to speak :)

This is all so sweet and heartfelt...I think I'm gonna cry...It's so nice to see everyone being so accepting...Well almost everyone ;)

Ahem, anyhow, onward and upward.

<You are all fools! There is no love here. This love will be cancelled and it won't be coming back, period. And I got that directly from the WB....>
Whoa! I was possessed there for a minute! *curses the tick trying to ride Larry's back* giggle....
I slay myself sometimes... oops, wrong show... I .... batarang myself some times.... (I should have quit when I was ahead...)
If you want your username changed to Larry let me know; it takes a sec.

Hey everybody...uhh...I'm sensetive...and I admit to my mistakes. Uhh...like one of my mistakes is...umm...oh yeah, underestimating the power of the darkside of show business. Let's all just get along and give each other a big hug (oh man, that sounded pretty gay). Oh yeah, I figured out another fault of mine: sometimes I get jealous. I admited to my mistakes so everybody tell me how cool, smooth and sensetive I am.
Larry
12-01-2002, 06:23 AM
Okay, Oracle. Whenever you can, change it to Larry. It'll be better than the username I chose.
Neptune's Rose
12-01-2002, 12:13 PM
Congrats on your new username Larry, and crazy_pete thanks for admitting your shortcomings, you too are a sensitive sweet man :)

I don't care what anyone says, as long as the show is on there air hope remains alive. I will send letter comicbooks feathers, batarangs whatever to get this show the attention it deserves.
Don't give up people there is a plan bubbling to the surface that just might make that twit Levin see the light.

Stay tuned to the main website...
Well I'm still here with a cup of coffee in one hand and the other refreshing this site to see the new master plan umm I mean campaign! ;)
Sxygrrl Huntress

It won't be that quick ;) Try tomorrow hopefully
Eww. Feathers? That's really grody. And I don't care how old that word is, I like using it now and then. ;)
The campaign was put on hold while the site switched servers. It should be up today.
