Sociopath forum

From a reader, this link to a sociopath forum that is just starting (for both socios and neurotypicals, apparently): http://thepaths.webs.com/

  1. Serial Killer discussions? What the bloody hell? Is he trying to draw negative attention or what?

  3. Kind of a play on "paths".

  4. Reminds me of the wave of "pro-ana" websites meant to make eating disorders en vogue. Not that it's any surprise that every impressionable teenage outcast wants to identify with some type of diagnosable condition to justify their deviancy.

    When do I get my socio/psycho bracelet?

  5. They cost $30 each, made from real plastic, to symbolize the plastic personality. They don't really cost that much to manufacture, but this is the psychopath way of doing things. Purchasing one symbolizes psychopathy in every way, showing the world that you're not afraid of who you are and you won't be oppressed any more. There's an optional upgrade that adds small metal spikes for $20 more, representing the ultimate in psychopathic behavior through the crazy cost and the real (metal) danger hidden in a fake (plastic) facade. When people ask you why you'd spend so much on a trinket, slap them upside the head, let the spikes dig in, and tell them it's because it's just who you are.

    I'll accept paypal or credit card. No checks, because a sly psychopath like you would probably forge it. Don't give out the URL to anyone else, and if you see any non-psychopaths wearing one of these bracelets, make sure you beat them and steal it to show them what psychopathy is all about and to make sure the bracelets retain their meaning.

  6. Update: We'll buy back bracelets you've taken from posers for $5, as long as you leave some of their blood on it. After that, we'll disinfect it and put it up for sale for an extra $10 off of the regular price. Anyone who wants a bracelet that's been baptized in the blood of sheep can pick this up. It's worth the extra cash to own a piece with truly psychopathic history.

  8. hm...it's never occured to me to go out and kill people.... this guy or chicks website (sociopath forum) irritates me. i think it is safe to say not every sociopath goes out killing or physically harming people. ... the stereotyping is more than a bit ignorant.

  9. don't be irritated, expressing arrogance and judgment ... check it out and see what it is

  10. Peter Pan:

    Does that come with or without the supernatural ability for world domination and an arbitrarily high number of virgins?

  11. Nobody can promise that, but if you don't have that kind of power already, you shouldn't be wearing one. Only the baddest of the bad deserve to display these symbols of awesomeness, so if you're a wimp, you'd better not buy one.

    But if you're a real psychopath, fearless and proud, place your order now.

  13. Aspies/Peter,

    With regards to the Serial Killer forum. You would really need to know the origins of the forums/site to understand why the specific forum/section even exists. Obviously not all socios have a compulsion for murder but having started from Experience Project where there were many discussions with regards to the serial killer I decided to place a forum on the topic so that it would not overtake the general forums at any given time. Feel free though to come and argue or comment on your points at the forums at any time. I, personally have no issues with any sterotype because the truth is it isn't anyone business what I read or what my interests are or why I am the way I am.

  14. Well, Jean, I also noticed the "what weapon would you use" quiz. You know, chainsaw, knife, shotgun, etc. I think the quiz was set in a blood red color, yeah?

    Is that also a holdover? If you didn't ask your users what weapon they'd use, would it take over the forums? Even if they started their own poll, at least it wouldn't look like it were officially endorsed. The way it is now is just plain tacky, and it could draw unwanted attention.

    Personally, I wouldn't touch that site with a 10 foot pole, especially because I'd have to register just to read the forums. I don't understand the rationale behind that. If you don't want it searched by Google, robots.txt is there for a reason. You need to get the timid fuckers (like me) reading those posts, so they can find something they want to reply to and register just to do so. Most of the allure of joining a forum is pre-existing content, which is 100% hidden from anyone who hasn't already signed up. You won't attract any quality posters with "What kind of weapon would you use?" Really, you won't. I promise.

    Come on, you can do better than that!

    Also, just for your image, you might want to throw 1 or 2 other forums up there along with "Serial Killers" so it doesn't look like you or your users have some kind of fixation with serial murder. It might not be anyone's business what y'all like, but seriously, attracting attention and making yourselves look evil/dangerous is a BAD IDEA YO! Maybe section the categories off with Psychos and Nonpsychos in some kind of serious discussions category, and Serial Killers / whatever in some kind of miscellaneous category, to drive the point home that your site is not about serial killers etc etc etc.

    WTF WHY AM I TELLING YOU THIS SHIT?
    It's not like you'll listen anyway.

    Sociopathworld shocker:

    I actually agree with everything Peter Pan just said. Well except for the last sentence. Who knows? Maybe Mean Jean might listen Pete.

  16. Unlikely. He made points but Jean's site is pointless as it stands now. Any current and all future points that site tries to make will reach the fewest people possible because of the red carpet treatment.

  17. I think the site has promise if the owner pulls his head out of his ass and loses the dark and scary "psycho psycho blood blood PSYCHO PSYCHO BLOOD BLOOD" feel it has now. I don't see how anyone could take it seriously the way it is, nor do I understand why the forums would need to be restricted. I say open 'em up, let google search 'em, post some good, quality, controversial topics about psychopaths (only 1 or 2 at a time) and let google bring in debaters and haters. Once they're hooked in, content will start creating itself, but right now there's just no allure whatsoever. It's actually more repulsive than anything to anyone with a lick of common sense.

    But I did enjoy the socio vs psycho page. I thought that was done nicely. It's also nice to see a links page, but I thought it would be more effective to have another page dedicated to syndicating content from other socio/psycho sites, like sociopathworld. Automatically pick up links to fresh articles and post 'em.... turn the site into a portal for psycho/socio information, while rewarding people like M.E. for blogging by feeding them visitors.

    But yeah, well, I generally see promise in anything. The problem is that people are too fucking dumb to do anything with what they have. Or just not ambitious enough.

  18. I think the forums are restricted partly because they have photo albums in there.
    ReplyDelete
  19. Oh yeah, great, break your site's future so you can have a photo album in the forums. Fucking brilliant.

    Make a new forum for the albums.
    Restrict only that forum.

    Come on, god damn.

  20. "But yeah, well, I generally see promise in anything. The problem is that people are too fucking dumb to do anything with what they have. Or just not ambitious enough."

    Socios can be great, I mean genuinely talented, at fostering ambition in others. I mean, it is all about them in the beginning & end, but that is always the case just in different degrees.

    [Here's the thing though: some socios say what you said about others, but then don't make much out of themselves either (ie, being critical of laziness but being lazy themselves.

    Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black?]

  21. Sure, if the sociopath has a vision for something, sketches it out with crayons, and then starts harping on others' projects. If you start something, fucking throw yourself into it. Use that noggin and put aside your feelings about how you think things work, how you wish things worked, and how you think things will work out, and get creative with it. You can't just put up a forum and think, "I want it this way!" and expect it to work. That's fucking retarded. That's sheep-think.

    But hell, if his goal is just to have a substandard forum, then let him have at it. I'll still criticize either way, but it looks like he wants more than that. He's obviously trying to create THE site for sociopaths and psychopaths, and that's something I'd like to see. There's not enough information out there, and what's there is much too spread out. Most of the communities I've seen are just total trash... I'd love to see something better. I like his goal. Not enough to make it my own, but enough for me to call him a fucking idiot and throw criticisms at him so I can laugh if he listens to me and laugh even harder if he doesn't.

  22. A sociopath "community" just sounds absurd to begin with. It's not called "Antisocial..." for nothing.

    Additionally, it's one thing to share views anonymously, but it's another to be sharing your photographs and forming some convoluted notion of exclusivity among sociopaths/psychopaths/whatever-the-hell-you-think-you-are as if some revolution is going to take place. Isn't collective thought typically "sheep" mentality?

  29. My life has been a mess because my parents and my two brothers are sociopaths. None of them ever been able to have any kind of genuine emotion.
    I was sexually molested when I was under ten year old. My mother never had the time for me. She shopped round the clock. She found later, her response was not over the wrongness over what had happened. She had caught me masturbating she was outraged, because I was not supposed to be doing something like that. That trusted employee was thrown. My father was enraged over criminal neglect.This thing also affected my studies and my parents never consulted a psychologists, they talked with my teacher who said I was making careless mistakes. She did not know why I was.
    She not take having to look after so she hired a maid for me. Because she was in constant fights with my dad.
    I had an accident, I lost my tooth - either it was abject ignorance or there no sense of my pain, I was taken home instead of being taken to the hospital immediately, I was taken the next day, by which time it had died. Again criminal neglect.
    My father was transferred to another country. French stopped being my base I had to learning everything in English. My parents conveniently assumed I was incompetent. Never taking into consideration that through my childhood I had been learning everything in French. Another factor has also begun manifest, I began to have weak eyesight. My parents neglected and blamed me for being incompetent. The result I could not concentrated in class and on my homework. For that my father beat with cricket bat type of contraption almost every single for five days. It was insane environment. None of my parents had the slightest remorse over their actions. Except that stop beating me that often.Another example of their criminal behaviour
    The lies continued. My brothers lies were added to theirs. They never felt any remorse. Since both of my brothers were sociopaths they could never live in an emotionally charged environment. They were extremely averse to it.
    Whenever a child was born there always this dead pan expression.No in my family felt any kind of joy. They were just indifferent. Trying to evoke any kind of emotional responsible was impossible. Hearing me out at given time was impossible because everything I talked about had genuine emotions in them. They only responded with ridicule and contempt if they ever did response. They never could respond with genuine happiness, because being happy was alien to them. I have lived a very miserable life.

  30. Oh, boo hoo. You had a troubled family life. If you want someone to empathize, go to Lovefraud or post on a newer topic. I don't understand all this thread necromancy that plagues this blog.
