A Journey, A Revelation, And Some Nudity

[ThePoodonkis]

Wait, did something happen with the "UltraJosephine" thing?

I am quite confused right now.

"I don't care."

Second me on this.

Read the passage, then it got boring.

Then please, why clog my thread with such observations? I wrote it for those who would find it interesting, and you're not helping it become something positive by insistently ignoring the note I put at the very top. If you have a comment to make, or a valid point, go ahead, but we don't actually need to hear how positively awesome you are for not giving a damn. I repeat, please; this thread can go two ways and I would hate for it to turn sour on page 1. Let's start over;

My name is Dean, you can call me Ultrajoe, have you ever had an experience similar to mine or a comment on my experience?

Please, post constructively.

So, uhm, who was the decoy?

So, uhm, who was the decoy?

Labyrinth is showing her this thread, she'll show up if she wants to. She might, she might not.

 

[Inco]

Pity.
I thought I'd met you.

Oh well; another time I guess.

Admittedly, I'm not convinced about the truth of this post. I mean, you just admitted to fooling us about your gender. Who's to say you're not trying to pull a double-bluff?

Very well written, by the way. I need to find more topics that you've started, to keep myself awake.

Ditto to every point has been made above.
Then again, i didnt really know anyone on the forums to begin with, so nothing ventured, nothing gained. At least i know the others are real... or are they?!?
But if it was an act, then at least i can say 'nice job'... Now, all people who believed this hoax will have their pride hurt and will ignore the disclaimer just to try and put a ***** in the Ultra-Armour. Which will be a very funny thing to read in a day.

Well... that wall of text was worth it, i hope your experience as a whole was rewarding enough to be aware of the bunch of crap the "misoginistic" males from the internet trow at the females,in any way, there are some points i found to be against some things you said, but perhaps i did not understood them because i dont really speak english as my first language, but anywhay, as a whole i agree with you, i too have entered chat rooms and other places as a female, and it was utterly disgusting to see the amount of people that can be offensive and ignorant, i remember once a guy (fairly in his mid 30´s) sent me a pic of him masturbating... and i had stated that i was a 13 yo girl... sick people.

but well, in the end the joke was on them, he was reported and banned from that place, i think it was kind of great to get one of those bastards out so that young real girls dont need to deal with him.

loved your experiencess and anecdotes, nice writing and properly explained, a little bit wordy and i had to translate some stuff to understand, but great in the end

 

[Ultrajoe]

Before you go on, please read the rest on what I said. Please, don't stop yourself from quoting out a sentence of what I said before I explained myself which is a sentence right below what you quoted so how can you miss it?!

Because I don't actually give a damn about your justifications, this thread isn't about how the Big Bad Joe couldn't shock you. It's about how the Big Stupid Joe was himself shocked. Come on man, lets be friends.

 

[hopeneverdies]

I guess I missed this too, but hey you probably would've fooled me. I think the closest experience to yours was convincing about 8 people on Gunbound that I was in my twenties, about 4 or 5 months ago. It was the way I said things, sarcasm and the like.

 

[Caimekaze]

You know, come to think about it...

Your perceived gender really does change how people act around you. I've certainly noticed this in various forums I've perused, changing genders at whim.

I've never thought quite so hard about it, though. Dammit, more threads like this are needed.

 

[Galletea]

Well it is interesting to see the reactions to this. I too was fooled, but it made little difference, other than perhaps I was more prepared to discuss awesomeboots with Ultrajoe.
The reaction to the revelation of being female, inspired awe and generally positive comments, but the revelation of being a man, seems to have had a less positive effect. To me this speaks volumes, perhaps even more so than the op itself, which did amuse me rather a lot.

I was flabbergasted when I saw UltraJosephine, I admit it. But to me, I always imagined you as a shapeless mist kitted with a helm, a breastplate and shoulder armour who treated users with tough love.

Interesting experiment, that's all I can say. I offer you a round of applause

 

[Fire Daemon]

I'm not going to say that I knew the truth straight away (or didn't I... it isn't like I can trust any of you anymore) and I'm not going to tell you how angry I am that you would treat I, and many others this way, but I will ask why?

Why did you all have to treat the Escapist community, people who would call you friend, so that you could get your shits and giggles? Distancing yourself from those that would stick by you so you could watch them squirm under the microscope. Why the hell would you do that?

I'll admit that I've never really gotten to know anyone here that well. The most I ever see of someone is the posts they make public, so because of that I don't think I can really call anyone here a friend. I couldn't really care when it boils down to it, I have problems opening up to strangers so even if someone did try to befriend me over this place I'd only push them away, but I still have some respect, a lot of respect, for some of the people on this forum. A lot of those, incidentally, being those that went to 'Escapism' in April.

Now, I'm not so sure. I can't respect those that would lie to me, to the entire Escapist community, like this. I can't see what I used to respect in you people, I can't see anything that makes me think 'that person is great'. Now when I see your avatars I see liars that fill me with disgust, tricksters that only want to entertain themselves... people that would stop me from joining this forum.

Yeah, I know I'm looking into this too deeply. It is only the Internet, and I'm only Fire Daemon... hardly a key player in anything going on here, but still... well this whole 'Escapism/Ultrajoe' ordeal sure has done a great job at ruining my stay here and I really feel the need to vent at least a part of my emotions.

Anyway, maybe I'll move on now. I've found another forum that seems rather inviting, I just haven't made the full move yet. Maybe I wont, try and find some nice people to pay attention too. Who knows? Well, at least I know not to go to another 'Escapism' (I'm really glad I missed out on the one in April), I don't want to get caught up in something like this.

I think the only reason this is getting any views is because it says "Nudity" in the title.

Just a thought though.

 

[Ultrajoe]

I'm a quite guy and I hang out with a lot of girls and guys. I'm the type of guy that observes rather then contributes to the conversation. What I say in serious conversations either carries weight or, much is of my sense of humour, funny without me realising it. I also read a lot. The books of Terry Pratchett are very enlightening and I can guarentee you that you will enjoy reading one of the Discworld novels for the sheer pleasure of it.

My favorite is 'Nation' by TP, actually, but I just bought a new set of the Disc-world series. His philosophies contribute greatly to my own, I wrote several papers on his observations about humanity. Don't assume, please, that this is a new subject for me, and don't assume I don't have female friends of my own, many who watched the unfolding drama along with me.

I'd prefer curiouse Joe as not understanding even the basic male psychology doesn't mean you're stupid, it just means you don't understand while you may know something far more then what I do.

As someone who takes a great, great deal of interest in male psychology, from fatherhood mentalities to the crippling and understated world of mens depression and the root causes. From sexual martyrdom to the development of abusive fetishes, it is precisely my interest in these fields that fueled my desire to get in touch with the feminine side of the world. It's an undiscovered half of human existence (for me), and it is precisely my desire to better understand things that drove me to venture into it.
