I figured that. I just called spot wordy to see if he'd smack me upside the head. I can report that he did not.
I wonder how someone would act out the word "flippant" in charades.
guppy. I hope you join in more often. we don't mean to be scary. honest. well, i don't.
Minks, don't be mad at me. I just have to work some things out (personal, emotional, etc.) and want to know if you are suggesting that there is to be no chop-busting or making fun of word-game threads!? What kind of a place is this? That's cruel!

yeah ok remember the old saying.... talk to the hand.....
anyway Nut the point is .... stop antagonizing people.... it isn't FG style. If you are going to come in guns blazing and think it's a hoot to rile members up, you better be prepared for the reactions you get. I am certain you are not suffering in any way, you are just out there yanking chains looking for just the reaction you got from members here.

I am making fun of word game threads and busting their chops. GASP!
Someone please PM me the context here. Is this site REALLY THAT ployanna and lolipops, or do people bust on eachother and so forth? Right now I feel stuck between a pub and a library.

Rub some butter down the sides of your body to squeeze through! And no one here has pigtails pal and we sure dont like fake fruit on sticks.
Maybe those low testosterone levels are screwing with your brain function.

Why are people always talking about butter and oil on me? Oil a nutcracker, butter up your sides? I feel like a piece of meat surrounded by wolves more and more around here. THAT'S NOT RIGHT.
Oh lighten up! Slam!? Sheesh, I think we'd be taking an internet message board thread on word games a little too seriously to call this a slam! Yes, Valerie - I think people who start or enjoy word game threads are INFERIOR! :wah:
Valerie, I am not seriously complaining about them because I just don't care that much and I was willing to take the big gamble that people who start or enjoy them could handle some chop busting.
I'M A CHOP BUSTA, Valerie.
IMNSHO telling me to lighten up is going about this the wrong way.
As I see the problem, you say you aren't seriously complaining about
them but it's post #46 where you do so, alright?
You taking a big gamble is not right, either. You are gambling with
other people's feelings. And I happen to know for a fact that there
are those here who can't handle the "chop busting" as you so
quaintly put it. Who see your thread title and cringe.
I'm known as a pretty even-handed, fair-minded, honest person
around here. I'm very strong of character, and so I tend to speak
out for those who aren't. They know it and like that I do. I
can't sit and let something go by without comment. To do so
would be failing those perhaps fainter of heart than I, and I just

It's not so hard to figure out 2x4, you just have to read around the site. Think before you speak, read the subject line and see if your thoughts to post are appropriate or not.
It's not rocket science. Look at our membership we are fairly large, we have all different kinds of posters here.....
Some people are easier offended than others, I am certain your friend base can handle you better than some of the other posters here, so you just have to pay attention to how it works.
�You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.�
The "feelings" of word-game players? Think twice about it? Please tell me this is some sort of crazy joke! If I say that word-game players suck should I start writing letter of apology and send them money for therapy? Come on people, lighten up around here!
Hey Minks, and Valerie ---> You're nothing but a lousy word-game player!

Ummmm just so you know 2x4, some of those you offended likely won't come forward and say so ok, I am just saying use a little tact will ya.
If some thread isn't your bag, leave it alone.... don't come in being a **** stirrer.
As for me being a lousy word game player, oh well I don't bowl well either but who cares.

I hear you - that is a noble cause. Victims, especially word-game-playing ones, often don't have the strength to speak out. You are speaking out for word-game players with hurt-feelings on the internet. Someone said they didn't like word game threads and just in case one didn't like it, you are here to defend them.
PLEASE SMOKE SOME WEED OR HAVE A DRINK YOU MANIAC!!!
boy. 24hourforums.com must be exceedingly lame. i mean yawn-a-rific lame. i mean, if the moderator of that site has so much time on his hands, i guess his own forum must be sloooooooowww, no? i guess one method of pumping up a failing forum could be to go to a highly successful forum and attempt to stir things up - create a little discord by 'busting chops' of people you don't know - while coyly having "my community" in my sig. poaching members from a successful forum is the oldest ploy in the book. a lame ploy, but there you go.
oh. ha ha ha. i'm only kidding. i'm just joshing with you. ha ha ha. it's a joke. lighten up! ha ha ha.

I knew he was being facetious when he started. Come one guys. We need to lighten up a little and have some fun at nutjob's expense even.
Let's just say his style is not a style some FG members like. Why would he be supported if he comes into a rather quiet game thread and flap about how he dislikes it. It's to get a rise out of people, much like his intro.
And yeah I bet he is found offensive by some of our members.... it's not like I just fell off the potato wagon yesterday, his act isn't new.... and he certainly isn't the first "newbie" to try and come in and light the place on fire.

He's obviously joking, and I can't imagine someone being offended by his facetious post about word games...but, as Pinky said has happened to her, I've gotten into enough trouble in here today, so I'll just shut up now.
Invaded you say.... funniest darn thing... I personally got an invite PM here in little ole FG

this just isn't a word game issue now, your intro was just as crass ok, I am saying you are comeing across as classless..... can you understand that in your weed smoking haze now?

I appreciate this. I would be careful if I were you though, people are going to defend me any second on principle because other Admins might be offended and aren't strong enough to speak out. Minks? Valerie? Can you please do something about this - I am hurt.
Anastrophe - about my presence, I only came here because my bud Lady Cop, a member on my site, came back here and invited me. I need to blow off some steam and I love her so here I am! I love the others who came to my site too (Aussie, Pinky, DesignerGal, and several others) but Lady Cop just got back into here and we both thought it would be a blast since I now know many from here.
If I was just here to "recruit" I would be Mr. Lolipop but I am too real for that, baybay! I am obviously NOT here to swoon everyone because if I were, would I DARE to make fun of word-game players and DARE to bust chops (two of the biggest internet offenses on record)?
Anastrophe, I don't believe we have even said hi to eachother - where is your greeting? Where is the love?

oh dear. i'm terribly sorry about this - apparently you've mistaken me for someone who gives a damn!

And 'poaching' is a ridiculous expression in this case, we went through all this with MadChatters and admin said there's enough room online for everyone... so why is Frank now being accused of this dreadful sin?
Gawd! This is getting crazy.:-5
sorry ya lost me there girl, poach, i haven't typed poach anywhere, you say his forum was invaded I simply said I got an invite, I didn't go invading, simply putting the record straight for my situation alone.

I know this is going to be like imagining a fourth dimension, but maybe there are some here who don't like YOUR style? I am not putting on some act, this is ME! I am not trying to light a fire per se, this is just me. Love me for who I am and stop bashing my style - it hurts my three feelings (one is dedicated to loving hot lesbians and the other is sad about my one nut) like you are an authority here on style. Stop telling me how to act and go roll me a joint or something.

dude, lighten up. it was just a joke. like it said in the post. see, that's all anyone has to do to absolve themselves of being an asshat. just say you were making a joke!

I see .. this was all about my Intro wasn't it. Why didn't you just come out and say so, you jealous demon. Please don't insult my Intro. It was clearly successful and a print out hangs over the wedding picture in my bedroom (it turns me on, don't ask).
I'm actually glad that some FG members responded in defence of word games and the people that play them. We all get offended at different times by different things on FG...that's been proven in recent months. Whatever the issue, if people feel offended, then that's how it is...it isn't less important in this case because it happens to be word games and it certainly doesn't make anyone a pollyanna, or require them to lighten up.
