To LSMFT
 

Well, I am new here too. First 2 weeks and I am already threatened over the post reply button. so it is my duty to inform you before they start to cringe and cry over it.

on the right side of a list of threads there lies two buttons. one edit thread , the other post reply . if you feel that you want to respond or answer to a particular thread or message, press the post reply button.

On behalf of Mr. Me(king of Tomas Rueda), my subject Lord Myself Selfish, and I, we welcome, applaude, and congratulate you to the cellar

oh, by the way I am Tomas Rueda (Code name, of course.)

UT, take him out back and shoot him

it's a hopeless case. as he is cautioning the new guys, he does exactly what he warns them about. i can't decide if he's just being ironic or really really dumb.

anyone?

Dude is now prevented from starting new threads.

Re: To LSMFT
 

It seems that you also need to be threatened over the use of something called a "private message" instead of posting to the board.

Oh, and thank you, UT.

does anyone else get embarassed for people? *cringe*

yes. I think the most embarrassed I've ever been was when I saw an episode of Little House on the Prairie, and Laura put apples in her blouse and went to school. :blush:

to wolf and undertoad
 

What do you mean?

UT, how many people have you prevented to post threads or "fired" so far? and if you or any of y'all have had enough PLEASE show me the door.

aw, c'mon...that was too easy.

just don't be unbearably annoying. is there a remedial course he could take, tony? a vbulletin training class he could sign up for?

Mr. (or Ms.) Rueda, *what* is your native language? I mean this with all due respect. I think that perhaps if we tried to cross-lingually explain things, you might understand better what you are doing wrong and why it is irritating.

I wouldn't be able to do that, of course, but someone might.

After your recent spate of identical threads, I went back and checked your posting history. You participated just fine to begin with, then seemed to get offended when people pointed out the reply button. If you are going to continue to whine about that, then please use lumberjim's door. Otherwise, I ain't got no problems.

To Elspode and Happy Monkey and whom it may concern
 

I, sir (or madam), speak Spanish as my native language.


(it is really nice to have at least some coutesy for once)

HM:

It has become apparent that you are the type of person that likes thing fast(city-dweller) and I try to learn as fast as I can. Yet what it might look like several threads is really something else.

to all, My deepest, sincerest apologies.

I believe is giving people a choice.

Tomas, I won’t try this in Spanish, but I’m going to give it the ol’ college try in English, because I still have a hope that you might really be confused, and that you're willing to try to post in a coherent manner if only you understood what you were doing wrong.

Think of it as a large party, with people mingling around and having many conversations in small groups. Each conversation is kept in a spot in the room, and people can join or leave the conversations as they wish, and still know what part of the room the conversation is happening in, in case they want to wander back later.

When you start a new thread, it’s the equivalent of standing on a chair in the middle of the room and shouting what you’re saying to everyone. For a brand new topic this is fine (like your Passion of the Christ thread), and then you get off the chair and people may choose to join you and talk about it, or not. But a specific message to one person (you’ve created several threads like this) is not a conversation that everyone can join in on, so it’s annoying when you “stand on the chair” and make everyone listen while you yell something to that one person.

The rule of thumb is that a thread should be able to be read and understood all on its own, without having to read another thread to know what’s going on. So if your post can’t be understood unless someone has been reading another thread (or “listening” to the specific conversation you were having in your corner of the room,) then it belongs as a reply, not a new conversation topic (because, in fact, it is NOT a new topic, it is still on the old topic—you are still talking to the same people about the same thing.)

Your mistake was a simple enough one, and you only had your thread-starting privileges taken away because you blatantly ignored it when people tried to explain what you were doing wrong. So far you haven’t really posted your thoughts on anyone else’s topics at all, which makes it look like all you really want is the attention you get when you start a new thread, not to genuinely talk with people. Try reading some of the other threads and commenting on them (not addressing the people themselves but just giving your thoughts on what everyone else is already talking about), and I think you’ll start to understand the way this works.

That's just plain mean-spirited.

showoff:)

...and I stood like one thunderstruck.
 

To clodfobble:

:eek: I am amazed at the way you explained the cellar to me. I now truly understand the concept of a thread. At first, I thought that a new thread was neccesary to answer back a statement by someone else. The only real mistake was the answer to Lumberjim's Would you rather? trivia. I had somehow created a new thread under the same name. Thus people believed that it was more like spam than an answer.

I thank you for having enough patience with me...

To all whom it may concern:

During the last few days, mistakes had happened, points did not get across, and people became upset over it. But now I fully understand the funciton of a thread. For the record, I did read the rules when I signed in. the part about spamming and other misuses to the site I took the time to adapt to it.

To the Administrators of the Cellar:

You might say that now I am going demand my right to post threads back. well, I have a deal proposition. How about If I don't get to post new threads until 5/27/04? Afraid? c'mon, I have changed. I am not going to post new threads to answer back to someone. I shall require a response to the above as soon as it becomes availave.

Thanks for explaing it to me.

oh, suck it up, you big baby. good effort. now get out of that corner and go play in the sandbox

yeah yeah. :p

Now if we can just get Lumberjim from starting new threads! ;) Oh wait, this isn't the insult thread. Ooops. :D

you know you love it george.

Eres apenas celoso porque tú no puedes hacerlo.

Permanecer sentados por favor

i have no idea what this says, but something tells me it's a wisecrack. i dunno, call it a hunch.

Basically, "You're just jealous." And I don't speak Spanish. Ah, technology.

Some things should remain unsaid.

Not when it comes to dealing with Jimbo. :)

huh!

much milder than i expected.


and right on the money.

lo siento, onyx cougar-o

mi cabeza es vacio`y mi pantalones es completo de los cabras

Dude once again has the ability to post new threads.

Just for the record, Mr. Rueda's English is a hell of a lot better than my Spanish.

LJ...was your last statement en Espanol something along the lines of "My head is empty and my pants are full of shit"?

close....full of goats

The latter implies the former.

a Friend of mine (american) used to tell me this during a trip to Brownsville:

Tengo un gato en los pantalones.

Anybody want to take a whack at it?

A cat? In your pants? Danger!

are the terms "cat" and "pussy" interchangeable in espanol as they are in Inglais?

no

I am LSMFT, and I'm not sure how my introduction has induced this less than interesting response. You are all welcome to join in at any time. I came here,with expectations of of something "smaller" than this. Anytime, anyone one of you , wants to go out and FIGHT, that's the dialogue I'm looking for. Please, put you're cards out, I'm on your side. I am LSMFT, and I WILL fight the state!

what the fuck?:confused:
