Yeah, I'm a sucker for doing that myself...
It's not that you don't have the time to read everything, but when you're multi-tasking numerous things at one time, it's easier just to jump into the action and post. I'm always busy trying to earn more Kudos anyway... "The Yuku Team" has almost 50,000 Kudos and my dream was to catch them ( a little over 12,000 myself ), but it's going to be impossible to ever catch "The Yuku Team" because they control everything on here, and they earn Kudos without having to work hard for them. I have to work hard just to earn a few Kudos here and there, and it's exhausting at times. Yuku almost feels like a job to me ( sometimes ) and it's not always fun! I have friends with over 200,000 global posts on Yuku though... One of them already has nearly 500,000 posts ( half a million ), but I'm still stuck on a little over 35,000 and most of my posts for the past two months have been on JJB. And yet, I still don't even have 400 posts on here, LOL. I'm not much of a poster though. But when I do post, I tend to type a lot. One post from me can seem like 25 posts from somebody else! Truth is, I've become so exhausted with Yuku lately, I'm thinking of quitting entirely but I'm hanging on for right now... Nobody can understand how I feel unless you've been doing the same thing as me... |

I had first created an EzBoard account on January 1st, 2005 but my main message board had made the move from EzBoard to Yuku last year. I had more fun using EzBoard for nearly three years, because it was all about posting back then. I didn't even know what a Kudo was. Profile wise, you didn't have the option of feeling extra pressure just to send somebody a greeting card... Looking back, I almost wish EzBoard had stayed together. Yuku has been too exhausting for me... I do want to quit soon, I just don't know how. I never even made the Yuku Hall of Fame ( there's nearly 400,000 spots for people in the Yuku Hall of Fame ), and I've worked harder than probably everybody on there. There are people in the Yuku Hall of Fame that don't even have any posts and very few Kudos, but somehow they're on there. One year ago, when I had exactly 1 Kudo... I thought it would be cool to make the Yuku Hall of Fame one day and I still haven't done that, and I'm doubting if that will ever happen. Truth is, it makes me regret spending so many hours for nothing on Yuku! I almost feel like falling to the ground right now, out of pure exhaustion. The only bright spot is I do feel like I've met some wonderful people on Yuku though. I've even got to meet a few of them in person before, when my main message board ( AstrosDaily.com ) had a forum get-together at a Houston Astros game back in July. But at the end of the day, I don't even know what do anymore. I can't keep using Yuku forever, despite it being noticeably addicting. Ironically, I never liked MySpace or Facebook... |

I joined the Army after I graduated high school in 1999 and I served for five years, prior to being wounded in a suicide bomb attack in September of 2004. I nearly lost my entire left leg, but the doctors and surgeons were able to save it through extensive surgeries and rehabilitation. When I came back home in October of 2004, my girlfriend since my freshman year of high school broke my heart and married another man. It was also difficult re-adjusting to my home setting, I had many emotional and physical problems since then. I also haven't been the same... All I have right now is a damaged left leg for the rest of my life, in which I'll always walk around with a noticeable limp and a life full of regrets. Yes, I'm thankful I served this country for five years to the best of my abilities, and I thank God every day that I didn't die but that still doesn't make me happy. Looking back, I wish I had done things differently after graduating high school, such as going to college and I would have been there every day for the only girl I have ever loved. But you can't look at the past anymore. I'm 27 years old and still have a long life ahead of me... Or so I think, nothing is guaranteed! But I don't even work right now. I get paid a monthly check and I was also purchased a wonderful home as well, for my past services and sacrifices. I have nothing but time on my hands right now, as I try to figure out what to do next with my life. Writing a novel is perhaps my biggest passion right now. I want to get something published before I turn 30 years old, so I still have time to accomplish that goal. When people say "Get A Life!"... It's so damn frustrating to me, because of the fact I used to have one. Not so much anymore! You don't think I wish I was still out there, feeling 100 % physically? One of the reasons I joined EzBoard back on January the 1st, 2005 was because I was looking toward a new year, and a fresh start to my life. My mother was the one that purchased this computer for me, knowing I could have fun playing role-playing games on the PC and occupy my time in some way after returning from Iraq. I honestly didn't think I would get addicted to Internet chatrooms and message boards. Nonetheless, nearly four years later, it's still a daily struggle trying to cope with everything, physically and mentally. I can handle the pain though... It's difficult staring at the scars all over the side of my left leg and knee though. It's a daily reminder of where I've been and what I had to endure to overcome it. Don't think for one second though, that I wouldn't give all of this up just to have my healthy life back again. It may seem like an easy life for me right now, but it's not worth the physical and mental pain I feel every day. |

RyanED wounded in Iraq??!! LOL. He's lying out of his ass. He never served in Iraq and I know this as I've read all of his idiotic posts he's
ever made on the Astros board. Ryan has admitted that he's never even driven a car because of excessive nervousness so I'm pretty damn sure the Army
would weed out someone like that. I also found some great posts made by Cryin'ED on the Astros board. His pathetic posts are legendary, here's some
examples.
http://evilwontwin.yuku.c...s-serious.html#reply-9922 I am 24 years old and I met this 24 year old girl recently. She is my first girlfriend ever. A lot of new things have come my way recently and i have been busy. That is the real reason I am not posting as much. I also try to find hours in the day to play Diablo 2, my PC game that is like my hobby. It was a few weeks ago. I had went to Denny's for breakfast and I ordered a super scramble breakfast. To be exact, it was the " New Meat Lover's Scramble " .. which is basically two eggs scrambled with chopped bacon, diced ham, crumbled sausage, and topped with chedder cheese. It also comes with two strips of bacon, two sausage pieces, hash browns, and three buttermilk pancakes. http://evilwontwin.yuku.c...out-my-health.html?page=1 A little over two weeks ago, I started to feel really sick and I tried to hide it the first week ( I didn't tell anyone about it for one week, thinking it was just the flu or cold that would pass in no time ). I went about things as if nothing was wrong, but it caught up to me last week and I really started to struggle. Does any of this sound like a man who would join the Army? I think not. Stop lying Ryan. You're just a pathetic loser who lives with your mother and can't hold a job down because you're too lazy and you spend your whole life on the Internet. |

People who follow others just to call them out are as lame. Go away, both of you.

I wasn't going to say anything but when someone lies and claims to be a wounded vet, well that's low.
