peterpaulrubens Posted September 7, 2006 Author Share Posted September 7, 2006 After speaking with post originator, I thought we could continue the thread with the express understanding that berating/baiting a/o general mistreatment of new members is not going to be tolerated. Any community needs to balance those who are here with the energy of those who come to an established sense of place. So please be kind to one another and I'll just sit on the Roost wasting time ... Note: Thanks to peterpaulrubens for respectfully challenging and engaging in PM with me about this thread. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE......... thanks so much Fionavar!! There are lots of members whom I'm yet to meet, so this means a lot to me. Spam is a work of art to which you must dedicate your entire being without pause. A truly good spammer knows no other day than his "A" day. Soon, grasshopper, you will see your folly. One does not unleash their full powers without knowing if their target audience can take it.

thepixiesrock Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I wanted to post something witty and funny, and then we'd all laugh, and the new guy would see how funny I was. Lou Gutman, P.I.- It's like I'm not even trying anymore!http://theatomicdanger.iforumer.com/index....theatomicdangerOne billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.

Amentep Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Howdy and stuff. I'm trying to post here more often myself. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that?

Pop Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Considering how the bulk of my posts seem to be in this transient forum, I'll probably stay a n00b for a long, long, long time. But I'm also fairly new here. Hello all. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Drabek Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Oh this forum isn't for the transients. Check the KOTOR fora for that, most WOT vets haven't set foot over there in years. This is a habitat for the folks who came long ago - for reasons that have long since been buried under the oceans and deserts - and decided to stay. baby, take off your beret everyone's a critic and most people are DJs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pop Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 I didn't necessarily mean "transient" in that way. On other forums I've been to, the threads that didn't affect your post count were called "transient threads". So basically what I'm saying is that I'm going to stay at <50 posts for a good while, even though I camp out here. Unless I find something to talk about that's on topic. We'll have to see. As for old-timers staying away from KOTOR... yeah, that happens a lot generally, as well. The places I've been to, the established members tended to shy away from posting in the sections of the forum that are actually relevant (band sections on band sites, etc.) What I just said made no sense at all.

tarna Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Hello and welcome. Why no Rubens avatar? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Because an avatar of PeeWee ( aka Turbo-Fist aka Fur-Paw ) might get him into trouble. (w00t) Ruminations...

Checkpoint Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Spam is a work of art to which you must dedicate your entire being without pause. A truly good spammer knows no other day than his "A" day. Soon, grasshopper, you will see your folly. One does not unleash their full powers without knowing if their target audience can take it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Do not tell me how to wield my spam. There is a key word here, and that is subtleness. You must remain ever vigilant and poison your fellow posters' minds with such irreproachably delivered spam that they won't even know what's going on. And then... There is no such thing as casual spam; everything has its adroit purpose. Oh, and welcome to the forum. I'm sure you have talent. ^Yes, that is a good observation, Checkpoint. /God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
