Why do people on the internet (2p2) hate me?

this is long . . . but i think it's worth reading.

i kind of know who you are, but not really. any, i have not formed an opinion of you and so i think i can offer an unbiased reply to your points.

1) regardless of whether you view ideas abstractly, when you make unnecessarily harsh criticisms about an idea the original poster is likely to get offended. obv no one likes an [censored], whether in real life or on the internet. however it bothers me a lot when people do this sort of thing over the internet, b/c they are often emboldened by their anonymity (maybe this is just me, do others agree?). if we were all sitting in a room together, people would be a little more amicable.

2)if you brag a lot, then you deserved to be called a dbag. enjoy yourself but why do you need to flaunt it. you spoke of other people's insecurities-- if you feel the need to flaunt your wealth/success, then it's sounds like you are the one who is insecure.

3)people don't need to be insecure or jealous to dislike you. your statements in point 1 and 2 are enough to make people think you are a jerk.

4) don't know.

5) its annoying to read posts that have bad spelling/grammar b/c they take a little longer to read. i don't think this is a big deal, but it is an inconvenience. i doubt this is a big deal, but it may just be one more reason for people to dislike you

6) like i said b/f, i think people are more likely to act like jerks and dbags online b/c they are somewhat untouchable. do you really conduct yourself in the same manner in real life and on the forums? even if you do berate your friends/make sarcastic remarks, they are your friends and are comfortable with that. you have established a level of familiarity with them that allows you to do that (and it's also easier to tell when someone is kidding during a face to face conversation). when you do this online, you usually just piss off people who don't know you. even if it is in good spirit, your rep seems to precede you, so you should lay off if you really don't want to piss people off.

"Is the fact I am such a controversial poster/internet celebrity a good or bad thing? What are the possible pros and cons. Is it worthwhile remaking my 2p2 image?"

you can't say something like this and question why there are people who don't like you, regardless of the statement's veracity. people tend to dislike arrogant people and even though it seems like you tried to not to sound too arrogant in your original post, you do. whether it's "good or bad" depends on how you feel about having a polarizing effect. if you don't care that some people dislike/hate you, then it doesn't matter. however, it seems like you do, otherwise you wouldn't have posted this, so i don't see how it can benefit you to have a controversial image.

in real life being controversial is probably worse. i said earlier that it bothers me when people are dbags online, but it bothers me just as much when they are dbags in real life. there is something to be said for having the fortitude to say what you think, but there is also something to be said for exercising tact. even if the remarks you make wouldn't make you mad if said to you, recognize that they can/will make some people angry.

it only helps to be controversial if you have a career that thrives on publicity and ticket sales and/or if you are trying to make a name for yourself at any cost. otherwise you are going out of your way to get people to hate you. it's not impossible to have an extreme personality and succeed in the corporate world, but it would be difficult.

edit: after seeing your posts on "ship it holla ballas" idk how can you honestly call yourself humble (unless that entire site is a big inside joke).

Thanks for some real advice, why I posted it here instead of BBV. Guildwolf kind of ruined it though. I don't care much about my image here just the psycology behind what shaped it. It's funny to see all the assocations people have behind me as soon as make a post.

Also I thought it was kind of ovbious when I was joking when I said I was humble after I was a profolic poster. Guess no one got it. Maybe everyone hates me becasue they don't get my humor.

I'm off to the caribean for a week with a beautiful woman. peace.

P.S... I learned is that most of you are jealous, insecure, losers. MWHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA (JUST KIDDING OK????????????????????)

[/ QUOTE ]

that was part of my point. your rep precedes you so when you think you are making a joke, most people perceive it as you being a dbag.

edit: also, "ship it holla ballas"? really? you're better than that; i don't even know you, but you've got to be better than that.

i mentioned this in my first post and i'll ask you again: you keep accusing your haters of being jealous and insecure; even if they are (some probably are, some definitely aren't) are you any less insecure? you [and the rest of your balla crew] are the one who feels the need to let everyone know how much of a bad ass you are. unless that site is a joke, it looks like the manifestation of your insecurities. why else would you need everyone else to know?

I don't hate you.

But I don't like you either.

www.shipitholla.com is a complete and utter joke. People who are full of themselves and publicly portray it draw a lot of negative feedback.

The Ship It Holla Ballas are a group of 18-25 year old poker players who specialize in making and spending large sums of money, by shipping it. The Ballas travel the world in search of sweet parties, hot girls and play in some poker tournaments on the side.

To me this sounds like a sad joke.

But that is my extreme oppinion and should be taken with a grain of salt. You asked psychology for oppinions, there it is.

i guess this about sums it up:

I’m a prolific (and humble) poster on 2p2 and I am trying to understand the reasoning beyond the hate I generate. For the past month or two I’ve spent much more time studying human behavior, influence and seduction then I have poker which has got me wondering, what have I done to get people to hate me so much. Every successful person has haters, but clearly some people attract many more than others.

I don't know who the [censored] you are but after reading this far I think I hate you.

[Gobias Ind.]

I hate you less and less w/ every post I read. Its impossible for me NOT to laugh at half the [censored] you type on here.

I LOL'ed at 4am b/c of this gem:

this is why you are so hated, u try telling people they are jealous after u comment asking why you are hated, real stuck up on your part like normal

and you look like a out of shape troll and talk bout goin to caribbean with a hot girl when obviously the only way anyone hot would go with u is if u pay them and for their trip

[El_Hombre_Grande]

Whoooaaa. I just saw your pic posted in BBV, and I must amend my advice, Quasimoto. You probably should just continue being a douche, as the truly ugly are rarely popular. My new advice would be shave the unibrow, do something about the acne, manage the weight, tend to the receding hairline, and get taller. And stay away from the children--we don't want them suffering nightmares.

I hope you have fun with your ladyfriend/escort. She'll certainly earn her money this week.

he's taking her to the Caribbean for their second date, IIRC

[tarheeljks]

unless his site is a joke (i'm still holding out hope) i feel sorry for this guy.

[MychCumstien]

I hate you and I don't even know you. But then maybe that speaks to a bigger problem about myself. Maybe my hatred is really a fear (or hate) of the unknown. Hmmmmm.....





I'm kidding BTW, I really don't give a [censored], but you sound like an ass to me [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
