Let me try to clear a few things up about me.


I like giving people a hard time. But I wont do it unless someone starts in on me. So...if I offend someone, tell me and I will smooth it out. However, don't approach me like you all are a big chiken house where everyone plays nice till they see blood then everyone attacks at once. I would hate to think this place refuses to respect someone until they have several thousand posts. Show me the respect due me simply by being human, and I will do the same.

And also. I am not a girl. I am a guy. I am not sure of the confusion, but I wanted to clear that up too. Are we cool? I hope so, and I also hope I can look forward to a long, healthy relation to this forum.

Fare well.

Okie Dokie! Keep posting!

You don't need several thousand posts around here to be liked and appreicated as many, many others can tell you but you did come in with attitude likely to cause offence.

I am sure things will be ok now; if you have any complaints please PM me with them.

Oh we all pick on each other a bit here and there, justice...

I think you'll find most people here pretty easy to get along with.

Deal. Thank you.

Torture Gundy, don't forget the torture...

ok man.I didn't had any problems with you.pretty agressive attitude there chummy...

You shouldn't have to walk on egg shells around here.

I didn't think you said anyting remotely offensive, and I still dont understand why a couple of people got their thongs in a knot.

Say what you want and if some people get pissed, that's their problem.

You've only been posting a couple of days and your already infamous.

Am I infamous? I wanna be infamous!!! Is that good?

okie I seem to have missed this fight

Thanx again Tex. I appreciate the back-up. I have a tendancy to speak my mind too much, so I will try to find a happy medium.

An opinion only and not a helpful one. You were not one of the ones aggrieved by whay appeared to be an unpleasant attitude.

I want to make this clear- do NOT listen to Tex. Never, EVER post without thinking about the effect it will have an other people. People who start to post without caring who they piss off WILL receive warnings.

Well isn't that a bit insulting to Tex? If no one is allowed to listen to him what is the point in him posting?

Besides, Tex is always right.... unless he's talking about Michael Bay!

Not insulting to Tex at all. He was favouring an attitude that is not acceptable around here. People are perfectly free to listen to posts, just asking for some consideration to be made when posting is hardly too much to ask.

I want to make something clear; attitudes of certain posters HAVE been a problem lately- there have been complaints and people leaving due to thoughtless and irritating posts. I have to deal with these complaints and I find them reasonable. Thoughtless attitudes to posting must stop.

Fair enough but I happen to agree with Tex! I'm sure he doesn't mean its ok to call other members ****ing twats and stuff (No attempt to be nasty there!).

What he is trying to say is that TJ shouldn't really feel restricted on some of the opinions he wants to share.

BTW, who's been causing problems?

And nor was I and as I didn;t take any action against TJ I didn;t feel it was excessive, but there WERE some people understandably aggrieved whether you see that or not.

"Say what you want and if some people get pissed, that's their problem."

No. Absolutely not. Post with consideration. And you can do that without having to tread on eggshells

And I am not here to single out posters, just to make my thoughts clear here.

I see both sides and I agree with both. Ushgarak, I will not post carelessly, or try to offend. However, as I think Tex and Bad Boy were stating, I want to feel free to express my own views and opinions. I think I can meet both guidelines without too much trouble. No worries, okay?

Okie dokie! Your the boss!

No worries at all. And not to get at Tex either who I am sure was only speaking with hyperbole but I did need to make that point clear, just in case.

Dually noted, mon capitan

Where would we be without good old Ush?

Oooh, ooh, I know this one...

It's happier, isn't it?

Ha Ha!!

More content? Satisfied? No, too conceptual.

I know! The pub!

What? Did someone say pub? I'm buyin'!

I have an opinon on this matter, but since it already seems resolved, I will not bring up old shit.

You have to think before posting

you sure dont follow that rule.

look who is talking

hihi, To if you're buying I'm coming

i never said i followed that rule either

you dont have to say it

finti at u're post number,you should have had 80 years old to make the thinking at all of u're posts

T_J..hope we'll get allong in the future...
it's just that promissing character deffining remarks seem pretty energetic and usually don't last long...my oppinion

Yes, it is important to consider what you are posting in order to avoid personally offending others.

Now if you've been here a while and you know a little bit about the other posters it is of course typical to tease each other.

Like people tease me about my age, we tease queeq about windmills and wooden shoes, Mech about pillows, finti about horns on viking helmets and the like, just for a few examples. Thats pretty harmless stuff.

But hardcore personal attacks will not be tolerated. They will be dealt with by hanging at dawn. Preferably after 16 hours of slow torture. Orchestrated by myself of course and approved in writing by Lord Raz.

Finti has the horn!!!!!!

oh...thx for the tip Gundy.I was close....

and guess where that horn is aimed

Finti is hoping his ass!

there is a diffrence between hoping and being damn sure

So where is it being aimed then?

I said guess

Poor defenseless Keiko?

hope not me....

Tex are you calling Catch 22 for Keiko ( Keiko is the new name for Willy the Orca that needed three movies to be free.

keiko, eh...... why wasn't i notiffied?

That Keiko is a total diva!
I hear it doesn't want anything to do with the other whales!
Starring in 3 Hollywood blockbuster would turn anyone into a premadonna!

I think Keiko would look good on some Norweigan dinner table

and no I wasn't calling Catch22 a whale, but he is a total diva though!

...I missed all this...

Yeah.
Where were you anyways?
You were gone for like a week!

yeah. visiting family for christmas

funny but not so funny. I was in eastern norway.

or Sweden as it also is called

not that far east, fortunately

puh, got me worried there. Dont need no renegade westerner

Sorry mah, but that was really funny

hmf! I'm sure I could've made it funnier!

yeah by telling him the truth about the actuall distance being 47 miles

ok..that was pretty good.

What is the population of Norway?

about 4,3 millions..or so

It's ridiculously sparse.

OMG, Dallas' greater area has a little more than 5 mil.

Finti wasn't kidding about that 40 mile joke!

I think it is about twice the surface area of the UK but with less then a tenth of the population.

Then again, the UK is a very dense country. I think only Japan is more crowded.

well there's lots of mountains and such where there's obviously not too crowded.

isn't The Netherlands more denseely populated than UK?

Could well be. Certainly the part of it that is above water,

I can see that London is jam packed, but what about that vast open English country side?

Surely you cant be that crowded

Doesn't Norway have one of the highest standards of living in the world?

yeah, I think the highest, or maybe 2nd.

Everybody in Floro has a gamecube?

no, many have a Playstation2 instead

So many people in Floro have no taste then?

London has a ridiculously large amount of people in it considering its size and archaic design, yeah, but the 'vast swathes' of English countryside are almost non-existent compared to the real major countrysides of the world in places like Russia or even the US.

To compare, the US has a land area of 9167 thousand square kilometres. The UK has 242. With forty times the surface area, the US only has five times the population. The UK is pretty full, really.

But that said I just looked it up and it seems the UK only comes 28th on the population density list. Humm... and Japan is only 20th... Heck! Belgium is 19th!

who won?

Technically Monaco. But these piddly one-city places and small islands cheat, really, so I would knock it down at least down to number eight, Bangladesh.

Belgium #19?
Poor Yerssot was probably elbowed into the English channel and drowned!

and which spot did norway have?

#989546415648674684646

Gee, I am not checking into four figures...!

Actually, this list only goes to 28. And it has West Germany in.

Hmm, the small problem in using my old school Geography textbook has become apparent.

Ush has been distributing outdated information!
How embarassing!

It's true, it's true, I've done a bad thing...

I am sure the general principle holds. I bet it is Scotland that drags the UK down the list.

Ush using OUTDATED INFORMATION ????

I'm shocked.

I'll have to revoke his license to pontificate.

You need to get the right authorisation form for that.

*goes digging in Raz's filing cabinet*

What a mess. How DOES he find anything in here ?

He uses a form to requisition the filing index.

Bloody bureaucratic red tape double talk gobbledygook.........

That's the spirit.

I'm going to burn this filing cabinet.

*gets out flamethrower*

Don't tell Raz.

oh Raz, Raaaaaz!

After everything I've done for you, mah. Defending Grover left and right !! And this is the thanks I get !

*throws Mech's pillow at mah* Take that ! Mech will never miss it. At least until tonight.....*squints up at sky*

Well thank you Mr. Information.

You'd better believe it!!!

I thought Keiko was the whale.

sowwy..don't think raz noticed anyways, he seems to be far away

Hilarious!!!
Your Floro jokes get better and better!!

You should go on your own Norweigan Comedy Tour!

(Sorry Mah)

well I'm not too impressed. if they had any roots in reality, then maybe

oh but they do

nah

Woa woa woa woa woa!!

Who threw my pillow?

The pillow police did. You took that tags off and weren't supposed to.

now it's at the pound.......

What the Pillow Pound? Do they burn then after a week?

surely.....

*Runs to pillow pound*

Fun as it is... this thread all done, I feel.
