The Depressing Quotes forum has been deleted, and will not be replaced. As it is depressing quotes are hereby banned from AimGirl, and quotes regarding self mutilation, ie cutting, will be deleted, and a warning will be given.

No section will be housing depressing quotes any more, at all in anyway shape or form.

AimGirl is not pro-cutting. Self harm is a psychological disorder, and quotes about it will not stop someone from doing so. We urge all our users who do cut to seek help from a professional. We here are AimGirl are not psychologists or psychiatrists, we cannot offer any real advice, bar to seek professional advice.

Thank you for you time.

Agree x 100

this is *beep*... those people who do wrte their feelings out in poetry.. and other ways... and studies show it's bette.. by posting that you show you don't care.. and by not allowing it you have cut off many peoples hopes for their ever beeing someone to listen to them. Because the people on this site LISTENED.. now noone will... if someone committs suicide over this,, i wouldn't be surprised.

Oh shut up you whining fucking maggot. You want to write shit and call it poetry about mutilating your skin go do it elsewhere. You want some help about it, we have Help and Support for that. You don't like it, leave the forums. We've already had this out elsewhere, see http://www.aimgirl.com/talk/index.php?showtopic=38495 for more. When it comes down to it, we run here, you don't.

But WHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNE!

Writing to get things out is fine, we all do that but what happens is the Depressing Quotes is a glorification (oh yes it is!!!!) of self-mutilation. While it helps in the short term it holds people back and does more damage in the long term.

i agree with x:bloodiedangel:x

felt like sayin that

i dont care what studies show, LIFE shows that some people start writing this stuff and thinking about it, and want to end if quickly, so they take themselves out of this world. if they really wanna talk to someone, there are numbers you can call, and support groups, and i don't care to help, if anyone wants to talk they can PM me, cause i had a friend to shoot herself with a rifle just a month ago tomorrow....she was in the process of writing down how she felt, cause her boyfriend had just died in a car accident a few days before, then shot herself, with his pictures all around her...soo writing things does NOT always help people no matter what studies show!!!!!!

I think everyone who wrote the poems are idiots.

Felt like saying that myself. Now get over the fact it's gone, and move the fuck on, or better yet, off the site.

Haha! Whoo Hoo! Robb's taking charge. Anyways, I completely agree with the decision to take down the depressing quotes section. It was a waste of space.

Robb, you're an idiot. I mean get real. If you "run" this site you aren't doing a nice job. You think if you take away the depression quotes & poems that people aren't gonna hurt themselves anymore...that's like the stupidest thing I've ever heard...I mean if they want to do it then they are gonna...poems and quotes doesn't effect their judgement. If any it'll make them not do it cuz it helps them express themselves. So taking them away is like saying if we took everything off the internet on racsuim (or however you spell it) then we wouldn't have anymore problems with that...but it really isn't that easy, dumbazz.

I never said it would stop them, just that we don't want to read the shite you lot call poetry about it.


You are the weakest link, goodbye.

rob i see wat ur saying but the people with depression need to express themselves

i agree with unforgiveable note...i mean i get what u are saying to robb and plus you dont have to swear at the gurl just because she is voicing her opinion

Depressed people can go express themselves elsewhere then. AIMGirl no longer panders to it.

Okay, I don't know what you guys dont understand. The depressing quotes section is gone. I know you guys want to write your poems and quotes on here to express what you are feeling, but did you ever think to just get a journal? And it's not like all the depressing quotes in the world are gone... you can always go to google and I am sure you will find a site where you can post things like that.
It's just not going to happen on here.
This site does not support what the depressing quotes section represented. Honestly, I was disgusted to read half of it. If the things that you all were posting are things that you actually do (ie cutting) then instead of worrying about getting your little depressing quotes forum back on a website, you should be getting help.

Actually it seems you are an idiot. That forum has been taken away because it was stupid. People just posted their to get support but there are places here were it is more appropriate to post. Actually in the supprt/advice forum I think there is a specific depression topic. Instead of posting their poems in qoutes, try getting a weblog, try posting on poems-and-quotes.com. So your saying this little qoutes forum is stopping people from harming themselves? Well I think those people might need to get back to reality. Go to a therapist, call a help line, or get medicine.

I was just woundering where is the line drawn. Heartbreak is kind of depressing.

I understand why it was taken away but Robb is being a *beep* *beep* to people and needs to stop.

yup! Thts tru ....

Yes, that's right, continue on, keep badmouthing the moderators......

You will find your ability to post severly hampered.

I am pretty sure the last straw was all of the cutting quotes.
There is nothing wrong with quotes about being sad but suicide and cutting, well, this site does not want to promote it.

Yeah but all the sad once have been locked and stuff but heartbreak doesnt count.

Yea, I cant really answer that.
I do not know.

Heartbreaking quotes are fine, people will have their hearts broken while they grow up, as in everyone for the most part.

Everyone will not however be that depressed that a whole section being devoted to it is needed.

I agree. Personally, I think that people need to shut the fuck up and stop whining about this section being gone. Get a journal, write it in there. It's practically the same, but people aren't telling you "Oh, it's okay. You'll get through it. I know how you feel.. it's ok.. " and whatnot. My God. Get over it. Stop your complaining and shut up. Thank you.

wow ppl... this site seems to hav gone down hill since i was last on ...i wish i was here to defend this place befor it was shut down .. and robb u should really grow up .. useing swears is so childish... and constituts ur lack of self covendince.. this loss will be felt by many of heart for many of nations .. sadly many for todays youth suffer from depression and its growing... well i guess ill fine some other place to post my thoughts... no use crying over spilt milk right ... or something like that..lol

Seriously, you're so retarded. For one, this site is not shut down. The retarded quotes that you like are gone. Forever. Good. Two, how does swearing show that Robb is not self confident? And lastly, if depression is growing, reading some quotes online is not going to help them. Getting professional help most likely will. Shut up, you're annoying.

After running your post through the dictionary and inserting some grammar I was able to read what you said.

Lack of self confidence? No, lack of patience with you and your ilk. And "this loss will be felt by many of heart for many of nations" I couldn't translate that, it still comes out as complete gibberish. So a word to the wise, you want to debate the removal of a section of the forum, fair enough, but learn to actually type first. Now as it stands the administrators themselves have said this subject is closed. It is gone. End of story. If people continue to bitch about it I am going to start removing peoples ability to post.

I don't understand why depressing quotes were so bad. I understand not wanting the cutting and stuff. But this could have been helping a lot of people. Instead of taking their pain out on themselves they had an open spot just to express themselves. You could have closed off a lot of people's therapeutic boxes. Posting stuff you have written and getting positive feedback makes you feel accomplished. It gives you more of a reason to stick around another day. But now there are going to be people who don't think anyone gives a *beep* and they'll close up even more. I posted on a lot of those forums in the Depressing Section. It helped me a lot. Closing them only helps you, now people have to express themselves differently. It doesn't always mean in a safe way.

It is your call though. I felt the need to debate my part and I have. It's not like it will change anything. Just so we're straight, I was not bad mouthing the moderators or showing my ass. kthnx.

The only thing I really have to say about that is, if youre only outlet to make yourself feel better was posting onto this site, then there is a problem. Like I have already said, go get a journal.
Also, there are actually 2 topics open (one in misc and one in love, heartbreak, crushes) for everyone to post orginal quotes and poems. Feel free to post there, but leave the cutting, suicide, etc quotes for a different website.
It's not like these quotes are being banned from the internet. Find somewhere else to express your depressing quotes if thats what makes you feel better.

I think everyone has the right to state and even protest their opinion. Just make sure you guys dont talk in complete gibberish.
Also, lets not have foul mouths. Be mature.

Personally, I dont have an opinion about this anymore. It doesnt look like it is going to open back up, and I agreed with the reasons for closing this topic. But no one is stopping anyone from posting how they feel about this.

Hey Robb: give respect, get respect.

Ladies, for all of those who feel they need a place to vent their issues, I have one link for you: Melo.

EDIT: You girls also have to think of the legal implications that quotes section may have had. If one of you happened to top yourselves, and grieving parents found the site in the computer history, they might take their grief and guilt and try and transfer it to the forum with a nice lawsuit. If people feel that they can sue their children's psychiatrist for not preventing their kid from commiting suicide, imagine what would happen if they found hundreds of quotes on a forum for young teens about cutting/suicide/all manner of depressing things? It wouldn't be hard for them to get the forum shut down, I bet.

i think all you complainers should just grow up.
its over, its done with.
there is no more depressing quotes section.
go find a xanga or get yourself a myspace and right about cutting yourself or whatever depressing thing you want to talk about.

yea ur *beep* stupid..any u have prlly neva been depressed ur would know..and yea barbies are whores

ok you gusy its not good to cut so if you guys really wanna do that and talk about it make your own site cuz thats gross and stupid

The immaturity in that post amazes me.

Please read the whole thread before posting, too.

As much as I thought the depressing quotes forum was a bad idea, that post....some people should not be able to post at times.

Hmm, well then.

lol this made me laugh.

In the end, the people with power win. Whether they are right or wrong.
Whining seves no purpose.
I wish there was a way to only look at the history of the forum, it might be interesting. A read only type thing. *shrug* But as it is gone, I'll just look at my scraps and be content.

Well, if you like I will see if I we can organise a read only section and perhaps have a disclaimer on it.

Could you do that?
The disclaimer would be a good idea, that way people know.
I would be most happy to be able to read some of the things that were in there again.
thank you

Yesh it would be kool.

just a thought... neither bad nor good, but if you all were to ban the quotes about cutting / suicide / depression etc. from this site, are you also going to ban the avatars seeing as they are more visually graphic? i don't like that the depressing quotes are gone, because that's actually what i came on here to look for a few seconds ago, but.. im just saying, if you are going to ban it, ban it all. no need to be hypocritical or partial to any section of material.

If I see someone with a graphical avatar or signature such as that it is removed. I've been doing that for quite a while now.

wow. thats pretty gay. i understand why you took it off cuz people would read it and alll this *beep*, but still. poeple put there feelings into these poems, u guys should just let them, dang.
if u dont like them, t heres a simple solution--
dont read them.

As moderators and admin, it's their duty to read them. If they find them inappropriate, then they will do what they see fit to rectify the matter. They did. You lose.

i agree with her and think that you are stupid for swearing at her. she was just expressing her opinion..thats not wrong.

Expressing an opinion is fine, but remember you express it here at our whim. You do not have freedom of speech on here, and thinking you do is an error. I was annoyed and frustrated that this topic keeps getting revived, and still am. Depressing quotes is gone, get the hell over it or get off the forums.

I agree with all the administrators and moderators--it was their decision to take it down! Get over it!

okay i get what most of you people are saying...but some of these people happen to express themselves with their poetry...YES POETRY...i think its poetry...you might not think so...and you say you want to help these people rob?...you arent making it any better telling them that what they write is pointless and it isnt poetry...poetry can be anything you want it to be...and you most certainly arent helping by cursing at them because they want to show how they feel towards this...you really arent doing a great job at taking charge of this situation you are making it wayyy worse...go ahead and call me anything you want but its only going to cause more controversy..."THE SECTION IS GONE!!!"...yes we know its gone but this looks like it has turned into some big ass fight over what rob is saying...and by the way...how do you think most of the people got here to read that he section was removed?????...i mean the link to it says depressing quotes...i wonder if they knew it was gone or if they came here to just simply read what they thought it would be

SPEAK FOR YOURSELF!!!!....dont post if you just wanna try to put people down
