Would DiS be any different if you never existed?

What do you think would have changed?

If i didn't exist, i think there would be a lot less vegan jokes and "yndi halda" would never have become a euphemism for masturbation.

No.

It would still be full of fuckwits.


i think it'd be different

i mean, there would be 40000 less posts and 20 or so less reviews for one thing. and i don't think "^racist" would be used as much


to elaborate

i think that i was the first person to regularly use that exact "joke" (format is part of the "joke"). rather than being someone who gets called racist a lot


Constellation

would have one less pair on her list


^

there would be no list.

other than that, not especially, no.


Nothing would change I dont think.

I'm a pretty nondescript poster, who has too much time on his hands.


I've been gone since

around September last year or so.

Nowt has changed apart from a vote button.

I don't know if thats an answer.


seeking out a contrary opinion

attention...attention...attention.


ON the contrary,

I think that its a pretty honest response.


Nope.


yeah, of course


Nothing

I am completely transient.


No album of the week

it would be a vastly inferior place.


only answers delay our time = great time

the rest of their tunes = :-(


ugh, worst band

i reckon nothing would be different if i wasnt here


how?

you'd have nobody to "stalk".


:(


:(


prob not

although i always think posts by you are mine when skimming threads.


Minus a few of the less popular and less funny injokes

I claim 'ding!', 'poo poo poop' and partial credit on 'your site is helping me a lot'. I'm VERY proud.


ding?


Ding!

It never really caught on. Ding! Dingdingding!


i like it!


Ding is good.

Ding!


its a forum

pffttt

real life, nah id make no difference really, my family might be a bit different but all i do is sit in my room listening to music all day. wouldnt really make that much difference, beyond the few people that actually like me.


i love the way you always say

"like me" rather than "i like"


Who?


yeah it would.

'cause who would be right all the time?


I imagine a few people would go to bed earlier

So yes. Yes it would.


:D


I can't think of anything I 'started' as such..

So I don't think it'd be much different at all.

I might be a bit more productive IRL if it weren't for DiS, but I'm not too sure, I'd have probably just found another distraction.


Not at all


youve changed dis in that

im far more likely to make a foot related jibe or joke than i would have been if you never existed.


If i'd never existed

wishpig would never have posted here, as i introduced her to dis. Feel free to thank me below ;)


nope


error


No, definitely not.

I don't really think there are any users without whom there'd be a MASSIVE gaping hole.
After from maybe bamos because of Zonino and all the DiS couples who've formed there? (L)


many many

indie boys would probably still be a little bit gay ;)


If bamos wasn't here?

Yeah, probably.


yes

MTFU and grow a pair wouldn't have become everyday phrases on DiS.

there would be no-one to play the ridiculously arrogant yet still very emo guy.

bus stops would never have been quite so vital.

discussions about wanking would never have been so socially acceptable.


Nope

160 posts in about 5 years. Says it all...


wow

i'm pretty sure i've posted over 200 in a day before.


I can't even say it's because i'm so busy.

I just lurked on and off for ages.


i do recognise your username though.

your famous on DiS. ;)


YES...

I feel vindicated.


Alas no

and I am beginning to think this whole blasted time-plane ist no different for my absence from my true time also. :(

AM'ST I DOOM'D TO WALK THIS EARTH ALONE?


yeah

dis would barely exist without my 40 posts


!

i look up to you, whiterussian, yes_ and Alex_In_Cinderland as legends in the game


shit sorry

you are on top of this game too. you know the trixxx innit


Hahha

yea i was like I AIDED U BUT FUCK U ANYWAYS

now its cool


wow, if you look up to the four of us

then yr pretty much fucked


The would be less early morning threads with no replies

and fewer extended metaphors about Italian desserts. Otherwise pretty similar.


Nahh

you have to have at least 10,000 pots to have had any significant impact


Yeah it would be like star wars if luke never existed.

to wring this analogy out, i'm luke and we're still only in the opening five minutes of the first movie. No-one knows yet that i'll save you all one day, but THE FORCE IS STRONG IN THIS ONE.

It's funny because i don't even like star wars that much.


A genuine yes.
