What are the big/little changes you've observed (in your posts and whatnot) based off of your time with Comicvine?

Changes in your debate pattern?

Changes in the way you speak to people?

Changes in the types of avs you like to "wear" now?

Changes in favorite characters?

Etc

Like, what kind of "tweaks" have you noticed in your "comicvine personality"?

I got less aggressive, visit the battle forums much less, have changed alignments back and forth more times than I can count, but have never gone blue, and I can no longer stomach the Storm forums. I keep it consistent with redhead avs.

  1. Mostly learned to speak when I know what I'm talking about. And my spelling/grammar improved.
  2. Not much change in my debate skills. Just usually stay out of debates that I don't know much about, and I admit straight-up when I'm wrong.
  3. A lot more patient now, polite as well. I seemed to of gained the patience of a saint, but I'm still sarcastic.
  4. Never really had a set kind of avatars I used, just changes based on what I feel like using.
  5. Very big changes in the types of characters I like, and the companies I read the most from. I used to be a massive Hulk fan, and a marvel fanboy. Nowadays, aside from Punisher and a handful of books, I hate Marvel.

Hmm... Yeah, haven't changed much. Maybe less of a noob, but I think that goes without saying for anyone.

I totally used to be a nice person and respect other people's opinions, but after a good year or so here, I've realized that nice guys finish last on CV.

I have also learned to vehemently debate any battle thread that says 'Storm solos'. Because, honestly, the only thing that Storm solos is the sanity of the comic-community.

Changes in your debate pattern? I used to be completly lost in some threads, and what some people said was off to me. Now I understand why people say what they do usually

Changes in the way you speak to people? Not much though I am slightly more random and a little more vocal

Changes in the types of avs you like to "wear" now? I've only had 3 so I guess not

Changes in favorite characters? I still love Storm despite all the crap that comes with it on this site.I refuse to let fans and haters ruin a character for me.

i) I improved by reading more and more comics while developing interest in new characters, as a result. 
ii) I was far more polite and tolerant back then. 
iii) I have so many avatars that changing them never meant anything. 
iv) Several inclusions to my top list, but the classic characters I liked are still up there.

cool thread 
 
1. well when I first came on this site I didn't debate much but I did make a ton of threads... then I started to try to debate and was about average if that... then I got better as I got more comfortable with the style and system of debating on this site... now I still debate but more in the off topic than in the battle forums.   
 
2. pretty much talk the same...  
 
3. this has not changed obviously 
 
4. well I would have to say I like more of the Wildstorm Characters and Solar now in comparison to when I first got here... I didn't know sh!t about Wildstorm I was more of a DC and Marvel guy with a liking to Spawn as well.

This is a really interesting thread, WhiteMage!

  1. Changes in your debate pattern? I'd say my arguments are better structured and more well- rounded and that I have more information to bring forward during a debate.
  2. Changes in the way you speak to people? I'd say I'm pretty much the same. I'm less interested in what people think of me.
  3. Changes in the types of avs you like to "wear" now? Same as ever, has to be one of my favourite X-Characters.
  4. Changes in favorite characters? Have an appreciation for more characters. Any characters I genuinely dislike I have more genuine reasons to dislike than before. I have some new favourite characters (Genesis, Fantomex, Noh-Varr (Morrison)). I now like certain characters a lot more than I did before (Beast, Professor X, Longshot, Thor, Iron Man), whilst my core favourites have generally remained the same (Hellion, Iceman, Madrox, Magneto). Also feel less interested in certain characters that used to rank amongst some of my favourites (Elixir, X-23). Willing to like more characters given the right story.
  5. Changes in favourite series? I read more DC now than when I first started reading comics (Batman and Green Lantern). I also read The Walking Dead. Less action-focused, prefer characterisation and action mixed up together with interesting story arcs - prefer Uncanny X-Force to X-Force Vol.3, for example. Still love X-Factor.

Interesting thread idea:

  • My debating became far more serious as did my grammer.
  • I talk normally?
  • I tend to adopt av's that represent my favourite characters or something I'm currently enjoying as opposed to something merely random
  • Stayed the same with a few additions; Captain America, Kaine, Nightwing.

Changes in your debate pattern?

Drastic. I have learned to apply more objective reasoning and simple logic tactics to assess situations more accurately; my typing style (and manner of speaking IRL too) is worded more comprehensively and articulately so that I can convey my point with improved cogency; I am far more knowledgeable now and by consequence refrain from commenting on a topic without sufficient information to form a consensus; my claims are frequently evidentially supported; and my replies tend to be more characteristically blunt. In the old days, my logic was just outright terrible on many occasions, which is only exacerbated by the fact that I was wrong at least half the time. I also like to think I was somewhat open-minded back then, but there were a number of instances when I should have conceded to being wrong but refused to. Currently, I may not always be right, but I can at least admit to not being infallible. Overall, just plain better.
 

Changes in the way you speak to people?

More distant now, is probably the best way to describe the disparity.
 

Changes in the types of avs you like to "wear" now?

Originally, I only used avatars of Spider-Man and Batman, which has obviously changed. The avatars I apply are significantly more varied nowadays. 
 

Changes in favorite characters?

There have been additions but none removed.

  1. They are more logical and I actully know what I'm talking about (I've actully read the comics I talk about now!)
  2. What's a debate? :P
  3. Well, I have a few people I check up on every so often. and when I meet people now I greet them and ask what kind of comics they like (a discussion usually starts from there...)
  4. Well, consindering I started with Hush Riddler and I still have Hush Riddler...no changes. though I did do a week or two of avs and let people vote on which one I should use. Nothing new.
  5. I still like riddler, but I like other characters too like Nightwing, and others...

I now have a cool costume/personae I call The Poet. He can be playful and serious (he's older than i actually am apparently...)

Changes in your debate pattern?-I began reading more and more comics and gained interest in new characters expanding my knowledge. I went from 1 word, noobish answers and not being able to defend my points as much to being able to respond to paragraphs and utilizing scans properly earning myself a spot in the battle forums' debater hall of fame in a little over a year.

Changes in the way you speak to people?- Not much really except a little bit more random. I am still cynical, sarcastic, stubborn, blunt or I jump to funny and random and joking when I can.

Changes in the types of avs you like to "wear" now?-No difference.

Changes in favorite characters? None really though I added a few characters I became more tolerant of. I never really liked Batman, Namor and Hulk. I can tolerate them now, though I am becoming a definitely bigger fan of Bruce, I guess the biggest character change is going from Wolverine as a favorite to Cyclops.

1)Not much, I just don't debate at all now :P

2)I wasn't that open to other users, not that I am now really but still more than then.

3)Still use avatars of characters that I find interesting.

4)Sure I got to like some new characters but still pretty much the same.

Changes in your debate pattern?--I don't really debate...Except if you count some shade every now and then...In that case however, I am the rain forest. SAME

Changes in the way you speak to people?--I was always very nice to people, with a little snark added when the time was appropriate. SAME

Changes in the types of avs you like to "wear" now?- Either Corey Baptiste or Shingai Shoniwa--Changed from random X-Men pics, Storm, etc...

Changes in favorite characters?Added Katara...But Storm has always been my #1HBIC...

Etc

Like, what kind of "tweaks" have you noticed in your "comicvine personality"?- I'm just more comfortable with using a computer in general

Changes in your debate pattern? At first I debated a lot and wasn't very good. Then I got quite a lot better and continued debating. After that I slowly started debating less and less, then i left for a long time, and now i poke in on a few threads here and there.

Changes in the way you speak to people? I think I've always spoken pretty much the same. I may be less tolerant of stupid people.

Changes in the types of avs you like to "wear" now? I go through phases. Whatever I'm into at the time becomes my avatar. Overall it's the same stuff usually.

Changes in favorite characters? When I first came here I was all about Moon Knight and Daredevil. Then I went through a Green Lantern phase, and a bunch of other phases. my very favorite characters have always been pretty much the same though. (G.I. Joe, Avatar, Batman, Kraven)

For me Nothing has changed, maybe my grammar got a little bit better other than that I'm the same. I argue the same. I put lame jokes in when I can. I've gained weight, thats different.
