Primegen-evil genius?

He tells us he's doing an experiment, he leaves, and now it seems other's are following in his foot steps...Was it all planned? Is he watching us right now, chuckling to himself, since his master-plan worked? O_o

Think about it.

Great minds, ab, great minds...😛

....think for themselves.....

...turn anyone into zombie who oppose them...

—— hmmm...so, what exactly was his "master plan" and how do you know it worked?

Well, I don't, it just seems that some pretty odd things happened since he left. I could be just imagining it, though.
...Or is that what he wants me to think..? O_o

Odd things—?? can you elaborte Yama? I'm finding this interesting 😉

Well, it's a bit difficult to explain, but it seemed to have really made people express what they felt about this place, and it seems a lot of people don't like it, and they don't really have any good reasons for staying, and then, naturally, people started talking about leaving. Kinda makes me think, did he post so much, became a cornerstone on the Aqua board(80,000 posts is no joke), just so he'd see how will his leaving affect people?

Ah, I see, thanks for explaining Yama. I do remember reading somewhere that he had a goal of reaching a certain amt. of posts (sorry Prime, I do not remember the exact amt. in case you are lurking about). To each their own I suppose - hopefully, he did reach his goal and it has fulfilled him in some way. :-)

"just so he'd see how will his leaving affect people?" sounds like if this is the case...he may be a bit insecure? hmmm....

I don't know about that, it seems he wanted to make dxp his social-science lab, and this seems a good experiment as any.

Professor Primegen @ work - subjects: Humans in the DXP Lab

Findings?

"Today I've found out that people are stupid, and that with minimal effort I'd be able to take over the WORLD!

Hehehe...err...MUHAHAHAHA!"

"...and this seems a good experiment as any."

as good an experiment as lighting a match to your own anal gases to see if it will spark the next revolution in sustainable energy. Sounds kinda interesting but implausible and naive at the same time. And in keeping with this metaphor, I thought Primegen was full of shit. He had some warped agenda in terms of prolifically posting obscure articles in which women were "the baddies". If there was some kinda unscientific experiment going on I think it was that he was bigheaded enough to think he could sway people's mindsets to be as anti-real_women as he is simply by the sheer multitude of these articles as if it was insurmountable proof that there really is a scandalous imbalance of justice favouring women over men across the board.

I think due to the fact that Primegen was an avid poster, he did amass a following of certain of users and in his departure, perhaps they felt that without him DXP was just a pale shadow of what it used to be!!

Anyway I just think all these messages from users announcing their departures from DXP land is stoopid. Just don't post anymore if you're fed up with the state of play in DXPland! What's with all melodrama attached? I feel like violins should be playing in the backround or something. Are we supposed to be begging them not to go? Or asking them why they felt that it had come down to this point? Or are we supposed to be reading something between the lines of their farewells? Guys if you're not getting anything out of posting on DXP then just don't post anymore simple as that. Or if you wanna say what you find not nice about DXP then do so. But I don't really get the point of these long drawn out messages unless it's just to placate their egos or something.

"Anyway I just think all these messages from users announcing their departures from DXP land is stoopid. Just don't post anymore if you're fed up with the state of play in DXPland! What's with all melodrama attached? I feel like violins should be playing in the backround or something."

I think they just want to say goodbye politely, a pretty basic urge.

MD....me thinks you hit the nail on the head - spot on with your findings!

Human behaviour....behind every action is an intention. What would be one's intention to announce they were leaving unless they wanted attention? ego? me thinks so. Insecurity? yup.

I'm with you....if you no longer feel the need to post - stop and move on - no biggie.

Yama...I see your point too.

"I think they just want to say goodbye politely, a pretty basic urge."

Yama weren't you arguing not so many posts ago that everybody's actions or urges generally boil down to either being done out of fear or selfishness?

"MD....me thinks you hit the nail on the head - spot on with your findings!"

Hehe thanks Freebird! Hitting the nail on the head has a nice pure twang to it!

Either you are intentionally misconstruing my posts, have a really bad memory, or you really didn't get it.

"Either you are intentionally misconstruing my posts, have a really bad memory, or you really didn't get it."

You're entitled to your opinion yama but it's wrong in this case! Remeber I am a Discordianist and everything I think and say is right. That is my creed.

Alert to all DXP-ers......I came upon a msg. from the Primegen - he asked that I post this for him.

Sure, it seems easy being a space alien. You've got your x-ray
vision, your late model space ships and media coverage galore. But,
as usual with most glamour jobs, there's a lot of nitty gritty work
the public doesn't get to see. The job can become routine, and even
a bit tedious, as we learned when we stumbled upon this intriguing
page from...

"3:30 PM Offer psychotic drifter a lift. "

I always wondered why aliens always pick the stupidest people to kidnap, I mean, if you've traveled light years to get to a different planet, and want to learn about the new species of intelligent beings, you'd at least pick someone who graduated from high-school, right?

hey shaka, sup?

yama, they pick the dumb ones so no one believes their accounts and they can perform as many more future experiments as they deem necessary. duh.

Oh, I thought they did it just to fuck with them, you know, some sort of a practical joke.
Kinda like what god did with fossils.

"they pick the dumb ones so no one believes their accounts and they can perform as many more future experiments as they deem necessary"

hence the aliens chose primegen to sink their probes into. hehe. I like the extraterrestrial style !

primegen is not an evil genius. he's just an intelligent human being. i guess those can seem evil from time to time.

anyway, i don't really think he's been abducted. is it possible to use a pc or laptop in outer space? eh, who knows. maybe they've adopted him.

Yeah, this is kinda ridiculous.

Nah not really AB. I guess you're hurtin a bit cos you never got to ride the P-train. Maybe you can still communicate your carnal wishes to Mr P into space via semaphore signalling or summat 😛

AB wasn't it your birthday yesterday or the day before or summat? If so Happy Birthday!

Primegen says hi from his "secret place". He and I converse daily and wishes you all well.

🙂

Yup and notice sb put on her own board, im sure she posted mor here than there.

People take this board way too seriously...It seems that when a person makes a decision to stop posting, and especially with all the pomp and circumstance that many posters have, they are trying to make a point about something, and that something is somehow related to being emotionally dependent and not being loved enough as a child. It's because of needing some sort of self-validation and assurance that so many posters have bid their "fare thee wells" and decided with much bravado to take their last bows on the stage of DXP (to their own applause nonetheless)...sorry, not that I have anything against any of you (I really don't know any of you well enough), but come on, why?!?). I once thought I was never going to post on DXP again, because of the negative, misanthropic slandering that has somehow become trendy on DXP (from racism, to misogeny, to homophobia, and even xenophobia, it's all here at DXP, perfected to an art form even Archie Bunker couldn't rival). I was starting to lose faith in people at an even faster rate than had been the case as a result of working at my second job, which is at a Casino (seemingly impossible considering casinos attract pretty much anyone and everyone lacking in any form of humanity). But in the midst of these new cult of personalities that were forming (I won't name any names), I decided not to take this board so seriously (also because I realized that most of these individuals only come across that way in their posts just to stroke their egos)...but anyhow, for anyone who wants to take this board that seriously, I'd say get a life...but then again, if you had one, you wouldn't be taking this much time out of it to bid your farewells or whatever.

(from racism, to misogeny, to homophobia, and even xenophobia, it's all here at DXP, perfected to an art form even Archie Bunker couldn't rival)

No, people here are pretty much amateurs.

"Primegen says hi from his "secret place". He and I converse daily and wishes you all well."

See? SEE?

Every evil genius has a hench(wo)man.
It is known.

oh, btw, I am one of those people I mentioned above who doesn't really have a life and spends way too much time lingering on DXP (but that's also b/c it's pretty difficult to have a life working 70+ hours a week). Just thought I'd add that point, so as not to seem that I'm distancing myself from everyone on DXP. 'Sides, I love you all..you just have to stop being so negative and hateful. Thanks notso07 (if that was in reference to my last post)...does that come with a cash prize or a trip out of Michigan?

Night all..Primegen too (..I know you're out there in DXPLand somewhere)...I have a few more hours of tossing and turning before I finally fall asleep...Insomnia really sucks.

I don't see what's the big deal about not having lives, hell, the entire western civilization is based on a bunch of people who had no lives.

So, you people never say goodbye when you leave a place?

"what you are staying is :::: 'YOU ARE NO GOOD PEOPLS FOR A PERSON OF MY INTELLIGENCE'..."

What does this has to do with anything?

"So, you people never say goodbye when you leave a place"

When it's a place where I know people face to face. Not generally on a message board. It's a rather pretentious practice to formally announce one's departure from a message board.

And I never said people here weren't interesting.

"When it's a place where I know people face to face. Not generally on a message board. It's a rather pretentious practice to formally announce one's departure from a message board."

It's pretentious to think people you conversed with for thousands of posts to give a shit that you are leaving? Seriously, off of all the threads here, those are the kinds of threads you choose to criticize?

announcing that I am quitting = you are staying to those on that 'YOU ARE NO GOOD PEOPLES FOR A PERSON OF MY INTELLIGENCE'... and YOU WILL NEVER BE"

Really? Because I've found them to be very polite, just friendly goodbye, I don't remember sb, Prime or GL ever mentioning intelligence.

I don't get it, how exactly did you translated "goodbye" into "cower before me you lowly mortals!"?

"I don't remember sb, Prime or GL ever mentioning intelligence."

Are you kidding me? Primegen was one of the most condescending and arrogant MF's I've encountered on a message board! He hardly missed an opportunity to try to put me down on the basis of my lowly subordinate job as a telephone receptionist as if this showed I was below average intelligence and was representative of other derrogatory labels. That guy was ego-superiority-arrogance all wrapped up in one little user.

GL is a nice person who I think became disillusioned with her expectations of DXP. I think the rows and bickering got to her so she decided to call it day. This is what I picked up from her announcement although she never explained explicitly what she was leaving.

I did not read enough into sb posts to be able to form any opinion of her one way or the other.

"(narrate me any reason why)"

I don't have that kind of time anymore/I got bored/I learned all I can about astrology...

md-That was before my time, so I really can't say.
Kun-Yeah, the babies born right now would grow up to total kick-ass.🙂
btw-You stole my answer about the secret of life!

Nope, you totally ripped me off You...Ripper offer...
