'GM' Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Since there isn't a 'Hello, I'm new' forum I guess I'm stuck with just plunging in and asking the title question. I only know a very small handful of you, and I know they're nice. Which is why I'm here. Please don't be mean. I like to play too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
213374U Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Define "nice". - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oner Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Hello. Unfortunately, I'm not, but that doesn't mean I'm bad either.

Fionavar Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Define "nice". I think this is numbers' and Oner's way of saying: "Yes we are. We just have a tendency to be shy and deflect our desire to be welcoming by sometimes spilling some sand out of the box."

Welcome and do feel free to report the trolls if they make a mess of the sandbox Thank you Fionavar, and actually I do know you from the old BIS boards. I was GM... well, still am at most places. I'm shy too. Define nice? Well, replying to this thread was kind of nice I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oner Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 (edited) Umm, no, I really stopped caring about being nice* per se. *According to how I define nice of course.

Deadly_Nightshade Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Am I "nice?" Maybe. I can be when I feel like it but, then again, I can also be an asshat. But unless you act like one of those first I doubt we will have any issues. Welcome, please don't mind the mess and stay for some time. "Geez.

Fionavar Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Well welcome back GM! As for Oner - nice is when people post in a way that does not require me to do anything ... not nice is when I have to move in order to ensure we are a welcoming place for newbs and olds who might be returning ...

Trenitay Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 (edited) Everyone is just trying to deceive you. Everyone here is very mean.

Oner Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Welcome, please don't mind the mess and stay for some time. On that note, have some cherry+banana flavored tea, very delicious. I won't offer you scone though, it's horribly dry.

LadyCrimson Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Despite long term exposure to the internet, I'm still mostly nice, most of the time.

lord of flies Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 No, they will only be nice to you if you by into their capitalist-imperialist-anti-democratic system of murder, rape and oppression. If you fall outside of this tightly regimented ideology, you are SCUM, a TOTALITARIAN, a STALINIST, a HITLER-APOLOGIST, a TROLL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'GM' Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 Seems to me most of you are nice enough! :D And Deraldin, political threads are always the worst.... well imo. And thank you Krezack, for that nice video.... hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
