I will... refrain from commenting on your user name.

Welcome. Hell, stick around, even.

I second what Wayne said.

uhm... whats wrong about my username?
(sorry if I replied so late but I log out minutes after I posted the forum)

We don't take kindly to emo types 'round here.

But you can stick around if you want.

1. You didn't reply late. This is a forum, not a chatroom. You don't have to reply right away, and you're encouraged not to. You're supposed to come on the site to reply to posts maybe once or twice a day, if that.

2. The majority of us are not "emos," or fans of My Chemical Romance. In fact, most of us are pretty hostile towards that subculture, although some of us can be a little more lenient.

Personally, I regard "emos" in the same way I regard "preps," because they are both following a popular fashion trend. "Real emos," the ones who are all depressed and self loathing, are ridiculous, hypocritical, and ungrateful dumbasses who don't know how good they've got it.

As for MCR, I've got one of their albums and I don't mind a couple of the songs on it, and I've heard that they themselves are not actually "emos" and tend to make a mockery of the fact that their fans tend to be "emos," so I don't mind them so much.

3. My name is also Jacob!

yes, I know mcr is not emo, they said it,...like a bunch of times lol, and I particulary don't take "emo" as a fashion trend I take it as a subculture of punk and hardcore.
I call myself "emo" cos I love emo music, but thats also my point of view.

ohh and yeah I think Jacob's a really pretty name

Hey i'm George,
I read comments above and before you ask yeah i'm emo but i don't care what you say,
and anyway tbh you actually sound quite nice people,
so anyway yeah just thought i'd mention it..

But anyway just thought i'd say hey
so cya round guys xD

Jake you seem like a very pleasant young man.
Welcome, read the guidelines blah blah blah.

I really do wish you people wouldn't be so quick to brand yourselves.

mcr,
your opinion is your opinion, and while most would probably disagree with it, the way you handle it seems fine, welcome to MD

knifing emoguy,
don't use annoying fonts, this includes and , don't use colours, otherwise, welcome.
and make your own thread if you want.

hmm. yeah. dont call emo a subculture of punk. i'll fuck you up. i dont got a prob with emo chicks. just emo dudes. but ei. as long as you dont got gay ass piercings and faggity hair i'm cool with you.

Well I'm quite glad to welcome you to MD, also, as one of the few fans of MCR round these parts I must also say, it is nice to have a companion around.

Welcome Aboard

@New Jake: welcome! I have no problem with emos as long as they dont go on about it too much, then again I dont like anyone that goes on about their style too much.

I also dont think MCR are that emo, except that black parade shit. But otherwise, doesnt bother me.

@KBE: make your own intro thread and start posting nicely and I might consider welcoming you

emo is more "alternative" than punk.

i would probably lay it out like this.

punk -> post punk -> grunge/alternative -> emo

None of it is alternative.

So there.

Umm....Welcome.

No_other_comments.

I've got nothing against real emos, as I've got a freind who is one, but faking emos real piss me off cuz its just another way to try to fit into society.
I am against fitting into society.

But anyways, welcome aboard Jake.

All emos are just trying to fit in. Emo and prep serve the same purpose.

Not actually, the last thing we want is to "Fit in" we actually respect and love our music and we are proud of it
thats why we call ourselves "emo"
being ourselves is better than pretending being someone else.


btw we hate preps

You're fitting in just the same as preps, just to a different group. You'll understand when you're older.[/asshole]

Part of the emo condition is the stubborn denial you're exhibiting. An emo website isn't going to be a reliable source on this.

it will be a reliable source to people who doesn't know whats the meaning
