Moderator(s): Software Problem or Human Error?

[El_Goretto]

BTW, nice try editing your post, you clearly said SNPARK originally, whether you meant to type snark or not, you said SNPARK messages, meaning me. Hence my reply to you saying it was NOT me
Post #9 "Last edited: Today at 11:09 AM"

For the record, the edit wasn't to change "snpark" to "snark", it was written that way originally, whether intentionally or not.

ok duly noted

Puspawarna says she likes even grosser stuff and claims the same for Bad_Azz. Looks like you're in a minority

I don't expect Gratilla to read for comprehension, but for anyone else who wishes to determine for themselves whether I claimed that I "like even grosser stuff" (and by extension, liked Grat's post), here's what I wrote:

Well, I am as fond of slightly lecherous banter as the next female poster (that would be Bad_Azz), but it has to be done right. A little slightly naughty exchange with someone like Scooter, sure.

But this? I'm not sure Gratilla's post is up to my standards, so to speak.

Truth is, I found Gratilla's post rather embarrassing. For him, not for me.

"edit ... flip flop ... backtrack"

1) What on earth are you ranting on about?
Could you reread your post and explain? Better yet, please don't.

2) The forum is not my home and I don't have the time or interest to be logging on every 5 minutes.

3) Any variables are (or should be) at their defaults!

Above are clique examples of what the forum has unfortunately come to - vent, rant and sarcasm. Not the kind of thing most reasonable people want to get involved in, as noted by another member (with much more experience) on discussing the faults of the forum.

And most unfortunately the "guardians of the forum rules" are in there fanning the flames.

What a waste of my other '5 minute log-on'

.

 

[Gratilla]

How amazingly perceptive of me:

1) A cliquette, with a
2) Sarcastic remark, within
3) Five minutes.

Amazing

Albert, I thought the interval between 10.55 and 11.21 was 25 Minutes? Well never mind.

Hey, something that might interest you and potentially take away some future frustration and ranting about the SW; the text editor has (bullet and numbered) listing capabilities!

So if you use the numbered list icon on top, you can create this:

1. A cliquette, with a
2. Sarcastic remark, within
3. Five minutes.

Indented et all.

My 5 minutes have passed and I arrived at my destination so I will log out again...

5) Conclusion to date: The forum is very cliquey - more for self/mutual back-patting and not for serious exchanges. This was mentioned much better by another member elsewhere as a major reason the forum is dieing.

I have refrained from chiming in this thread but you may want to check your facts.

For the record, the forum has just beaten its "most people online" just a few days ago (July 17th, 2018) and traffic keeps growing. I understand it doesn't help you to try to make a point, but this is a fact and this is easily verifiable (cf; forum statistics window).

I appreciate the detail, Atlantis, although most regular members, I suspect, already concluded the comment was self-servingly devoid of reality.

I consider myself a reasonable person and suggest this threat should be shut down as the original question was answered.. It serves no purpose responding further to Grantilla who obviously has no idea about the forum's values or members and he will continue to respond to every post in a negative/argumentative way. The old approach of "feeding the fishes until you get a bite".

In my time on the forum a have seen very few examples of "vent, rant and sarcasm" and note that Gratilla has only been a member for 2 months.This issue all started from another thread where a member rightly shared his excitement about his pending return to Indonesia and Gratilla indicated that it should be posted to facebook. His post then demonstrated a lack of understanding of the forums values and nothing I have read since changes my opinion.

Relatively speaking! (I'll ignore the poor math.)

Time dilation makes your posts seem soo looonng.

<Now, if only we could find a black hole for the trash.>

Seriously, recognize the constructive pointer.

But aren't you taking a big risk being nice?

This is a great suggestion.

Thread now closed as the "software" problem has been resolved.
