It is weird to come to our once lovely site and see how people leave with sad feelings.
Maybe I am missing something here, I don't know.
Where is the love and friendship we all were sharing here?
Very sad!

Quoting vineyards: Thank you for creating such a rich web site like this.
I know that you are the host and we are just your guests and you have a right to be in control of everything.
Yet, there are racist and overpatriotic remarks in this site, there are people offending one another, there are nasty quarrels in the chatroom.
I have also noted some members are leaving this website for similar reasons and those whom they complain of stay.
This is not something I can put up with. So please delete my membership as well.
Best regards and thank you for your efforts.

I have a question - with all due respect, but why do people have to cancel their accounts once they wish to quit using this site? :-S
I understand that maybe this web site doesn't suit all needs, but I don't think that we are that bad. Certain type of behavior will happen everywhere, and overall I think that we have lots of great people here.

I am with you, Catwoman.
I think if somebody wants to leave maybe it is better to just go, we have many members who is no longer on TC but did not ask to delete their membership.
What's the point? Sorry for asking though.
Is there a membership fee you want back?
If there is some problem here I think we all have to think and work out how to help administration to resolve that, not to leave, of course if you feel part of the "family".
Anyway...
Good luck to all.

Quoting vineyards: These last couple of paragraphs go to just a few people.
I love most of the people whom I met at this site.
The purpose of my decision is to get the Admin to take action against those who cause people to leave.
The admin seems to be a positive person. He mustn't take my criticism personally. |
Vineyards... I'm really not getting this. I agree with almost everything you say, but I'm sorry - if all 'good' people leave, what exactly is that proving or IMproving? That's how insecure people behave, not people who truly want to change some things or cause some action against bad behavior of others. Interestingly, I've never heard of any complaints from you about any specific problems or people here, you just announced it as part of your decision to leave - that is not improving anything.
Of course nobody is taking anything personally here, I just find it incomprehensible... especially from a person as intelligent and seemingly mature as you. Please, don't take this post personally either, it's not about you, but about the way people explain their departures...

Yes, you've touched the spot. We wanna show off a little.
Who wouldn't welcome a chance? The NBA players will, Presidents die for a chance. So who am I to ignore a chance to show em. This is my reverse dunk. I am the king of the hill.
I feel so great now.
I am in the limelite. I am the star.
Drop all your respect and (please) wake up to the reality, everyone shows off. It is just a matter of whether you are buying that show or not. |
Oh god... now, that is a HUGE contradiction to what you've said earlier... Yeah, I won't be buying your show any more either...  Phew! I'm surprised you actually said these things! :-S Maybe I just need more sleep...

I have difficulty understanding why people would say they are leaving but they keep coming back until Admin deletes them. It's hard not to think it is just for "show" although for Vineyards...from your posts, I have a hard time believing that is the case for you.
I know this place is an addiction for some...me included....but if you feel THAT strongly that you want your account deleted, why return? If you are trying to make a statement by posting you are leaving, then make the statement!
It is just beyond me what could possilby be so bad about this site that anyone would need to be deleted? I agree there have been some heated debates going on here but as others have stated, there are many more posts that are good and respectful.
It's really pretty simple, if there are posts that you disagree with you can either ignore them or give your input but taking it so personally that you want to be deleted, I don't get.

Dear friends,
I am very grateful to the pople who built this site for the people who are just sincerely want to help eachother , to exchange information about Turkish language, culture and the country . Here, there is no money matter, love affair or something else. The administrators ask no money for membership. There are people, very good in English and Turkish grammars, who help people in their language problems without any fee. Except a few ones, everybody respect eachother. So, I am sure, (except a few ones) everybody are glad to become a member of this site and to stay here. If someone wants to leave, we just say 'goodluck!'. There are many other sites. There is no need for making a show for the leaving, as catwoman said above. If someone doesn't like any site, she/he doesn't uses it, there is no need for explanation for a leaving. Maybe, the reason is someone takes her/his personality so important, charismatic, and enjoys that many people will entreat that she/he shouldn't leave. This is an interesting
personality indeed.
But, I repeat again my word. No one should worry about. There are many people here to help you. If you need any help about Turkish language, literature, culture or country information, you will find many volunteers in this site. Maybe, they will not participate nonsense talkings, or they can't be great philosophers, but they will be very helpful to you with the main purposes/aims of this site.
Regards.

Thank you Metehan and others for your great thoughts! I am always amazed how many wonderful people there are on this web site. We sometimes talk about trivia, but when it comes to serious issues, there's always many brilliant ideas from everybody.
Yes, there are problems here as well, and we always try to do our best to solve them - maybe we can't always be completely successful, but we value all suggestions and input, and we did change a lot.
I'd like to say that I prefer it when someone says "goodbye" before leaving instead of just disappearing, and we always respect people's desires to take some time off. We don't however like the attitude "delete me, there's too much hatred on this site, I will show you that you guys need to improve if you want me here". Sorry, it's us who create this site and this community and if you really care, or something bothers you, you can make a difference with you own stand against things you don't like (intolerance, nationalism, sexism... etc.) instead of telling us that we have to make the web site in such a way that won't let 'bad' people in.
It was great to have you here Vineyards, you had great ideas and I'm sorry that you so quickly decided that we are not good enough for you... and all of it for the sake of the spotlight (quoting your own post). Where is that mirror you were talking about again?

Adios! |
Actually, I started wondering about attention, after I noticed (this morning) that there was your photo, uploaded hours after the 'farewell' post.
When someone is leaving, s/he is leaving. He is not uploading photos
I didn't mean to hurt you. I only said that a simple departure, without drama (that's why I mentioned Joey) is always more touching and looks more real.
You have my apologies anyway, if what I said hurt you

If you don't know how your photo appeared, do you think i was able to know? I saw it, it was weird and I made a comment on it. That's all.
As for your leaving this site, oh honey I ve read it so many times so far that it doesnt impress me anymore. And by the way, I have nothing against you. Actually I ll miss the fun we used to have in the forums. Im just tired of reading sonorous statements, which are taken back in less than 24 hours' time.
Good luck in whatever you decide to do. In fact I ll be happy to see you back here. (If only you don't decide to leave again in a month and again in two months and so on. It has become really boring - and this comment is not for you only)

Im sorry Qdemir, but I wasn't intending anything at all. I ve learnt to speak my mind and that's what I did once again. Now if my posts brought Aenigma back, then aferin bana!

Few thoughts on the subject:
Aenigma is one of the last people at this site who need such so-called attention.
* * *
If the thing which is determining is whether to say a lot or little on departure, then my first leaving must be one of the most touching departures. Then may follow, for example, Joey's; for I didn't make even a single statement while Joey did one.
* * *
When a user decides to leave TC, they doesn't necessarily need determine the exact date of their return, nor should they. Thus they may or may not come back just or long after their departure. No one should expect them, while they leave, to state they will leave for, for example, 4 years and 7 months and 22 days and 8 hours and 13 minutes.
* * *
Who are not really interested in people's departures are those who never involve in "Farewell", "Goodbye" threads- whether they think such threads are open just for catching more attention, or not.

And am I crazy to say that Joey's leaving, with only one sentence in an irrelevant thread, was the only touching one?
|
I absolutely agree Sophie - there is no need to post message after message threatening to leave - just do it if you feel that strongly! - it is very attention seeking and unnecessary |
Just to clarify - my post comments were NOT aimed at Aenigma.

First of all, it was me who first asked Aenigma if she could say 'goodbye' to everybody - publicly in the forum. I thought it would be nicer this way, since she was an active member for a while and I'm sure many people who even didn't have a private contact with her, will miss her here. Stating that you will leave has nothing to do with wanting attention, and though I understand Sophie's reasoning, we don't have to be so picky about details and cynical when it's not always that clear what was the reason of the person posting. Even if other people might be trying to get some attention with their departure, what's so wrong with it anyways, I haven't noticed any major problems associated with it.
I also wanted to add that sometimes, the impression we give through our dry writing might be completely opposite to how we actually mean it or what kind of people we actually are. For example, Sophie may sound a bit harsh in some of her posts, but in reality she's a fun, awesome person.

Allright Cat She is a big girl, you know
But here i want to say afew things, as this is not the first leaving event... i recall lots of members saying their goodbye to friends here... though lately this sounded some often... i thought too to do the same to see if it is enjoyable or not
Nah! no body would cry after me, i am sure they would kick me for my going faster heheh...
And that picture thing, after aenigmas "Fairwell" her picture appeared, somehow i dont know how, and if we are not technical we know it is only up to our Control Panel, i mean the control is in our hands... it wasnt a tease into anyones picture and character or personality...
i only wish that people could understand the point exactly... no no believe me thats not that hard... and stop carrying topic into other dimensions... and also watch their words before posting not to carry topics into other dimensions...

I know that you were implying me, dear Ramayan. About my personality, I ll let others talk. But if you have something to say, Im all ears.
Anyway, I wasn't 'teasing'. I was simply saying that Aenigma's pic was uploaded hours after her farewell, which seemed weird enough to me, as she was supposed to be leaving. And actually, I wasn't the only one to notice. There were several members, who commented it with me, before and after I wrote the first post. And we all had the same question: 'if she is really leaving, why on earth is she uploading her photo?'.
Apart from the photos, I really don't understand why a post like 'is it my idea, or people are dying for attention here these days' was considered so offensive. And in addition to this, I said that Im sick and tired of reading about long sonorous farewells, which usually are taken back in less than 24 hours.
Many of us have made much more, really offensive comments in the past which were not taken THAT seriously.
And to cut it short, you are all moaning about freedom of speech, but as soon as someone comments in a way that it doesn't suit you, then you all attack him and forget what you were preaching.
Anyway, like my twinny_x used to say, 'I can't be bothered' with this subject anymore. I ll only quote some of Deli_kizin's words in another thread today:
One's freedom stops where another one's freedom begins. This includes that you shouldn't insult other people. But insulting has two sides: the one that insults, the one that takes the insult. Don't you think this is very childish and sensitive to respond in such a way to an insult? If you are sure of who you are and what you represent, one insult won't pull you down. It only shows lack of maturity and selfrespect (bana kalırsa) if you are this offended by an insult.

Yes, you've touched the spot. We wanna show off a little.
Who wouldn't welcome a chance? The NBA players will, Presidents die for a chance. So who am I to ignore a chance to show em. This is my reverse dunk. I am the king of the hill.
I feel so great now.
I am in the limelite. I am the star.
Drop all your respect and (please) wake up to the reality, everyone shows off. It is just a matter of whether you are buying that show or not. |
Vineyards...is that REALLY you? I cant believe it! I havent been around lately but found this and I cant believe you write this because in your messages and posts you seemed so well-educated , very smart and willing to help! your posts were the ones I liked reading why do you show this personality now? what happened with the friendly member you were? I still think you are a smart person and I am sorry that you are leaving ( most valuable members leave us ) but if you no longer like this site what can we do? It is your choice although, as an old member who has been there for 2 years I can say this site is not the same, Something is lacking I cant say exactly WHY ...perhaps it is like that since Erdinç , Aslan2 and some of my frıends went
However there are STILL many great members here whom I am so grateful to for theır help and frıendshıp !! I wıll go on beıng a member for sure...
İyi şanslar dilerim!
