[betsky]

YEP, i'm confused. I tried reading over what was going on and still have no clue. A couple posts are so undecipherable/confusing that i'm not entirely sure what has happened.. @betsky are you okay?

@cherrybomb
I think that makes quite a few of us.

[royce]

Tried to delete my post.

I would like to opt out of this discussion, no reason other than that I said what I thought: stuff here now is crazy and I will add confusingto me anyway.

Sorry if I offended anyone.

[merrymiau]

Agreed.

I was wondering if anyone did anything to celebrate St. Patrick's Day?

To put in my 2 pennies (yes, tonight I am British) @SlowRoll

Everyone on this forum dislikes someone, just like in real life (I can still vaguely remember what that is)

And everyone is guilty of a bit of arse kissing/being a twat here or there, but imo, both of those things are required, if we are to have such a wide and interesting demographic of users, and make PR as helpful/funny/sad/pathetic/important as it is.

So, to keep the peace, I find it easier to, tolerate everyone all the time, respect those who deserve it, not all all the time however, because sometimes, we're all f'kin arse holes.
And ignore the nobbers who are spoiling my pint.
I repsect everyone here, even the ones who're just plain annoying, I respect you for being yourself, and not wanting to conform to what others say you have to be, because if we were all the same, It would be pretty bloody boring around here.

With that, i'm off for a good british shag, and I hope that everyone is pals again by the time I come back.

@merrymiau - I used to get completely drunk and out of hand on St. Patrick's Day - and pretty much every other holiday too However, this St. Patrick's Day I stayed home and took care of the little one.

Shouldn't it be putting in your 2 Pence?

Have a nice shagging.

And stay away from those wankers!

[merrymiau]

Cool, @mimi07

I tried to do an Irish accent at various times fn the day when saying totally inane things to my roommate, like -- "All right, matey, I am heading to the loo now!" (pretty sure that's British?) or "Aye, @sshole, you've eaten me Lucky Charms!" (pretty sure I just sounded like a weird pirate that time).

[royce]

I tried to change direction posts were going because I read everything.

I could not follow anything. (yes I understand that is not your problem, it's mine)

I NEED a pepper..... I could use other things

OH, and thanks sambob.

Ahhhh, I get it now....some anyway

[Cranberry]

So what'd I miss, I just finished eating dinner?

[riverstyx]

ok. the reason wheels46 was so upset right before fourth deployment, is because someone kept hitting notify mods on every post he made. every post. and wheels got banned. and then was dead in under a month.

so, the person whom kept notifying mods on wheels is now a top poster. if i am correct in my guessing of whom it was.

so, therefore, we all have the unequivocal right to notify mods if we think a post is offensive.

or, in the case of the late wheels, if we just want to report it to annoy the poster.

i know so many of u behind the scenes.

and, understanding psychiatry, ptsd, autoimmune illnesses et al., i may have more liberal thinking.

but, on this occasion, although i have grown to know sir keith k stone's sense of humor somewhat, and betsky was fine with it, i would not have reported it.

i shall stand beside squelix, defending her right to notify a mod, just as u, sir keith defended all our rights.

and, also, very much so because my close friend wheels was banned because someone, i believe with malice aforethought, kept hitting notify mods on every post wheels made before he departed. without one of those posts, ok, maybe one or two, being offensive. they hit notify mods on my posts also. and i am a lover, not a fighter.

sheer speculation, but the party whom did this never suffered because of above captioned malicious behavior.

why, then, would anyone think to punish squelix for reporting a post she felt was truly offensive?

some of us r not used to those terms of art. or, we understand illness, and what it can do to one.

whatever the reason, i shall never forget how sad our wheels was that he could not say goodbye because someone kept pushing notify mods on him.

that party is still accepted. no threats against him.

so why threats against squelix?

she is a lovely woman.

i do not understand how one can say it was okay to deliberately hurt wheels as he was about to leave FOREVER, but it is not acceptable to notify mods over what one genuinely believes is inappropriate.

so, the "case law" on this matter is currently: u can hit notify mods as much as u want.

even, if its just cuz u disagree with a person about going to war, although he took an oath to do so. or, if u feel the post was offensive.

i feel it would be next to impossible for mods to know why a person hits notify mods so that posts r deleted.

but, as one poster, or two, did so on every post wheels made on his final two hours on board, in the USA, and, one was banned for the day, then it is within everyone's rights to notify mods whenever they feel a post is inappropriate or they do not like the poster.

or, that is how it appears to me and lacking a life, i do read all posts usually.

how can one accept a member whom so hurt another member in his final hours with us, yet be so vehemently opposed to one whom, with good intent, following the spirit of PR rules, hit notify mods because the post was even hard to read for many of us. it hurt me to read it.

seems one cannot have it both ways.

squelix did nothing inappropriate or unethical. whereas, another, still amongst us, i believe, used the notify mods with malicious intent.

why is the malice aforethought accepted, but the innocent, i am offended notifying of mods is so detested?

@zackery

I gotta 'disagree with you a little , I like you, but Bad Behavior can be good... (I didn't read/see the whole Billy Bob Thing...so I don't know about that whole thing)

That is because there is nothing to see. Nothing quoted; nothing deleted; nothing edited; nothing mod removed.
