Scorpiomoon - You don't miss a beat! :)
Do you have a record for the 100th and 200th post positions?

Could that remote also rewind about 40 pounds off me?

I'd like to complain that I'm the only "Marcie" again here. All this time, whenever I'd see that name in posts, I'd jump--thank goodness it was always Marcellas, not me, that was being villified. We'll miss ya, handsome, but really, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING???

Seems to me that cutting off the ability to create threads is a rather strange way to run a board. Since the board is organic, threads which are popular (getting new posts) survive, and those which are not interesting die away. If a thread is really needed, and it goes all the way to the bottom, and then off, then something similar will be recreated so that the topic will stay alive. Seeing new threads with only a couple of posts, and deciding if one is worth reading or posting into, is a big part of the fun of the board.

I have only created one thread in my entire board history. It was the one about the houseguests maybe going to be sequestered for the final weeks starting this coming monday. It got a few postings and then disappeared. If there had been much interest then it would have survived. Some people, I have observed, create a thread, then bump their own thread (it's their ego child) with lots of posts, which adds nothing to a really dead conversation, but in doing so, they keep it alive. About a fourth of the existing threads up there now are like that.

I posted in the Q and A thread that what was odd, or ironic, for me was that today I wanted to create my second thread ever... one about bb4, but the privilege was denied today.

My suggestion is that you should just limit the number of threads any given member could do. That will stop the craziness.

I think I am due for my second thread.

I want to complain that the cam ops totally forgot that the cam was on Danielle in the diary room and she was talking about the comp today (her quote: "yeah, I'm a sore loser"). Sounded like they were trying to calm her down. And then we went to FOTH! Dang it! It was GOOOOOOD!

Thanks Ryn! I wasn't on the Boards yesterday so just saw your screen cap. Priceless indeed!

Now I'd like to complain that I'm way behind in my reading here....

I just want to complain that I went to post in the thread of all threads about Dani's perm...and its closed! LOL! Only cause she's doing it right now-alone.

I'm joking Mods!There are plenty of threads...

Hmmm I thought when you got a perm you used tiny roller like rollers. Is that a new way to give a perm??? I use perms like that to get my hair straight!!! Where are those rollers!!!

I want to complain about the fact that up until a couple of weeks ago I had no idea I could come here all year long and discuss a myriad of other reality shows and general topics.

It's entirely my fault for not snooping around beyond the Big Brother section during BB1 or BB2.

Itsallgood, it's a relaxing perm...sort of an anti-perm. It relaxes the natural tight curls she has.

And, I have nothing to complain about. :)

Don't worry Megg, I think I hold the record for "Thread Killing", my picture is on the TVCH Post Office wall, "Wanted Dead or Alive" for thread mass murder, everytime I post it seems that I kill off a thread, hmmm maybe with the record of thread killings I have I should be a MOD....LOL...:)

Puck... what exactly are you trying to tell us?

Just that I am doing my part in keeping the board running smoothly, and helping to keep the threads to a minimum ......LOL....as long as I am around you will rarely have to shut down the "Create a new thread option", just doing my part....

Okay, thanks Puck... Carry on.

Puck, I thought I wore the thread-killing crown! Maybe I've been deposed.....

I came to whine because there's a big gap in the LFps for last night, and I had to go searching for other updates on the web, and guess what, I found posts which were word for word from OUR LFPs! They seem to be blessed, and go forth and multiply!
(But NONE of the places I found were as good as ours, just so as you know. )

Bernie: You didn't read all the rules (especially the unwritten ones) regarding your elligibility for positions of honor on this board.

Rule # 8,675,309 states:

Any board member that leaves this board in search of information not otherwise available on this board shall be barred from holding positions of honor in the clubhouse.

I'm actually surprised that your membership hasn't been taken away for your infraction!

I can't believe it- I have another post for the dead perm thread! They were actually just joking on LF about what would have happened if she had done it wrong and her hair fell out.

Bernie

Sunday, September 15, 2002 - 01:58 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Ack! I didn't do it, yer honour, it was that other guy, him over there!
(Well, I only did it out of desperation-doesn't that count as mitigating circumstances?)
I promise, I'll never ever transgress again! And I'll kiss the hems of whomsoever's robe I have to, to get back into good graces.
(Is that enough grovelling, do you think?)

I want to complain that I inadvertently bogarted the 200th post to the "Picture Instead of Pitcher" thread, a thread in which I made no contribution but for the 200th post. This could lead to the impression that I am a glory hog bent on cadging honorariums to which I am not entitled. I also want to complain that I have received no glory or honor for annexing #200, even if it WAS nothing but a poach.
