So, given that a significant number of people in here knew right from the outset what the purpose of those threads were (Even me. I don’t know any details but I’ve been around long enough to know what was going on) Wax is right to ask why did no-one call it out? Why did everyone here stay silent, or play along? The resultant drama and ban would have been avoided if some people (especially those who really know) had just said at the time that those threads were out of line.
I called it out straight away and when there was no response from the mods i stopped posting . I could have fired back (google is our friend) but all that would do is create a shjt fight ....I'm over it i just wish to enjoy the forum .
Who knows how many you or I deleted over more than a decade. Problem started with threads of that sort being created & solution is up to PP, which is simply to not do that. Gotta go - Things to do . . . Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
I thought it the best way to handle the situation but some idiots were more interested in their post count than behaving like human beings
I don't give a flying fuch !! I have two beautiful, intelligent daughters who are well respected in their positions , one runs the largest Cash Converters in Australia and the other a CEO of a Global Learning company. I would be livid if someone called them slappers, they earned their way in life without fuching over people and deserve to be treated with respect and dignity .... or else I'd sort out the person that tries to belittle them. You're living in the past Rob, women are allowed to earn the same as men now, they are the balance that keep men in check , if you had girls you would have a different outlook , I'm sorry you never had kids, you AND PP would have made great fathers and given you the opportunity to show your full worth to the next generation
Well John ,be great if more people around my are were as you describe your two daughters ,rather then the like of some self -centered one s who live here now .
Well I still don’t know what went on! And don’t want to... I have Rob on ignore and skip over whole threads when they just spiral into the abyss... I certainly did NOT see anything that was outside of what has passed as ‘normal’ here. Which isn’t to say there wasn’t something, but I didn’t see it first hand. I certainly wouldn’t ‘play along’ with something that was totally unacceptable.
Karen, I admire the fact you are still here, most women would have left ages ago let alone the crap that gets dumped on you (mind you, I think you're an idiot at times like all the rest of the idiots here ) but again , kudos for hanging in there, says more about you than them, boys being boys. My new partner is just as mental as the rest of the women I've been out with or married by she commands respect from everyone and has given me a new attitude to strong independant women
Yep. We've been there, done that with "best to delete" & rightfully so, no matter how one slices it. There were times, off coarse, that all it did was spawn moar. From no worries to shart. One simply hopes discourse doesn't make a wrong turn into the bad neighborhood of Serious & result in overcorrection, injuring or killing off occupants and/or innocent bystanders. What a senseless waste. We've all had a first post here - don't like seeing last posts due to carnival duck deaths, let alone actual passing on. While time marches on, our Papster's been preoccupied of late & being a good son to his Mum who needs him now more than ever. What we all need to do is give him, let alone each other peace of mind knowing that Modeler's still minding the store that sells high and low comedy accompanied by knowledge & wisdom extant. As ever, Modeler was, and remains Tops. The thing is to never sell out of, let alone sell out. I suppose that's part of what motivates PP, let alone us all, but his Mean Grrrl thing isn't for eagles that fly high. (FWIW: Where I reside, no eagles, but hawks that fly 10-100M above my pointy little head - it's a beautiful thing) There's a difference between a wedgetail and giving a mate a wedgie while dunking his head in a toilet, and footing them the bill for damage that can be beyond repair. Hence, THE Last Resort due to being punk in drublic. Yet some may wag their fingers at some who wagged their fingers at one or another whom wagged a middle finger or two. Some may say there's a reason or two. No matter. No reason to cause the sort of grief that has more than a bad side effect, and publickly so, which does matter. By whatever means, we need to consider water under the bridge. That starts with no undue concern that bladder water from PP's P atop a bridge is soiling garments. For that, PP's gunna have to apologize to a few. Some bygones ain't, as they really stung. Be that as it may, I can extol the virtues of FC-Oz all day. You can most certainly do it far more exponentially x eponentially to the nth power than I could imagine. The thing is to spawn more Members to share in the bounty, without a bounty on their head like so many carnival ducks one thought they had in a row - knocked over in a row. Other than that and grapefruit-hail, everything's peachy! Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
Hey ! I got away with s h ! t yesterday and today the filter is blocking it .... like WTF <---is this blocked as well ?
As well as the bleeding obvious of that is the fact that Pap's job means that sometimes when we're tapping he's either snoring or working. If 'we' were to have another person who could mod as well that'd be great.
No, but I did jinx us with my preemptive post... spectacular storm from about 6:30 - 7:00, power out so I sat in the dark with a vino and watched the light show. Lots of vegetation down, but haven’t heard of any damage around here. Sympathies to the folks who did get belted by the storm, hope all is repairable.
