Gilly and Strrrng may be head of the forum, but I am head of this Beta Quadra Forum. Starting now, nothing happens in here without my okaying it. Alright, continue onward like nothing happened.

Don't we have Beta subforum moderators? Who were those again?

I watch you poop. O.K. WITH YOU BOSS?
what are you wearing?

They are under my control... Let's not speak more about them. Forget they ever existed. They're like.. human remains burried in a deep lake. And you are sitting on my knee, fishing on a sunny day. Okay, continue.
Somavision: You are not welcome here. Go back to your Delta land of fantasy and comfort where you belong.
Ah. Betas. They are fun to watch from afar.

My queen? All the women here are my servants. I could pick any of them.. Infact, I'm sure they're all dying to be queens.
drama queen
absolutely cyrano. Okay, the next woman to post in this thread gets to be my queen.
Now all we have to do is wait..
In the meantime, you two servants need to do something useful. Cyrano, you are now the butler of this forum. Cyclops, I am locking you in the dungeon and you will be hanged on wednesday for treason.
I shall be a sulky potential rebel, entertained by the court out of politeness.
Or court jester. Can I be a jester? (I'm playing a fool right now in a show...)
Not a rule, just a trend.
IEI. Probably Fe subtype. Pretty sure I'm E4, sexual instinctual type, fairly confident that I'm a 3 wing now, so: IEI-Fe E4w3 sx/so. Considering 3w4 now, but pretty sure that 4 fits the best.
Yes 'a ma'am that's pretty music...
I am grateful for the mystery of the soul, because without it, there could be no contemplation, except of the mysteries of divinity, which are far more dangerous to get wrong.

SILENCE BUTLER! I WILL HAVE YOU DRESSED UP IN A PINK TOOTOO DANCING AROUND MY PRIVATE CHAMBERS AT THIS RATE.
ahem..
silver.. you are the court lawyer. It's your job to fend off any verbally abusive fools who come into this place, and to protect me in my position of power. I am counting on you. (Show disloyalty and you will be hung without a trial). Brilliand, I have magically turned you into a squirrel thus robbing you of your ability to reason. Now, all you do is play with nuts all day. You will never be able to create that android army. Shouldn't have revealed your plans. Alright, carry on

Yes, but do not antagonize our butler. He is a slave, yes, but as slaves go he's an important one.
Butler, fetch silverchris a glass of rum.. And hurry up, will you?
Betas like authority, they are not likely to rebel against one unless they perceive it as weak but are likely to uphold a new one when it is fully installed
This thread reminds me of a south-park episode in which Mickey Mouse was the evil CEO of the Disney Company:
disclaimer: i don't normally watch south-park... much.

Btw, beta doesnt need anyone to be in charge. This is just a fucking forum. Why turn it into some clique where some delusional idiot thinks "hes in charge" when you go out on the street and tell a REAL beta that you're charge of him hed either laugh his ass off or punch you in the face.
Down with stupid teenybopper popularity contests guys, a real leader needs a cause and socionics is not a cause, all the real beta leaders who have made history like Lenin beleived they had an actual social cause to fight for. So Stop the teeny bopper horseshit.

Betas like to BE in authority, nuance there. They are likely to support an authroity figure they admire but aerent likely to brown nose authorities like you seeem to be saying either.
Persoanlly Im all for firm authority, and cant stand weak authority but just because someone is an authority figure doesnt mean im necessarily gonnna respect them in my heart just for that reason.

I feel the agony, drama and theater of the entire world around me but rarely am I focused enough to express this in such a rich and colourful manner. We need to cultivate the journey all of us can be on, after all we're all cogs in a wheel. It keeps on turning and the only way to know is to play the game.
If that's not enough feeling for you, PM me and I'll give you a hell of a lot more
Perhaps because a Socionics forum is by nature rather palatable to Ti, your buttons rarely get pushed. Perhaps not as much as they should.
My view, of course, is that where there is a will there is a way. The will is everything. You just have to take some risks and the possibilities become endless.
One of my favourite quotes comes from Batman Begins (the director, Christopher Nolan, is often typed as Beta Quadra). It runs thus: "It is not what lies in your heart; but what you do that defines you." In other words, consider the actions or initiative you take to entertain yourself and your c(o)untry. Seize the opportunity to create good cheer, or maybe even a little mischief now and again. It does pain me to hear that someone feels the forum lacks animation, but of course also being me, my first thought is "what can I do about it?"
I feel grateful for the warmth I've perceived from some, and any suggestions of how to shake the place up would be most appreciated. Most of my ideas involve a little bit of group participation.

OK, that should be enough Fe for a while.

@squark ...was that actually necessarily? Sounds like you have some pent-up anger issues more than anything. Also, I didn't know that you were the pinnacle of some critical and intellectual thought. I don't know what I did to you to make you so butt-hurt, but ok.
Was it necessary? No. Of course not. And it's also pointless, so I deleted it. A rant is a rant is a rant, no need to try to put it as anything else. And sometimes there's just a little too much stupidity and meekness in the world - if a person can't rail at that from time to time what are they even doing?
