Hello
Iwas a frequent member of this board several years ago, and i must say that while I found it to be very informative
and rather enjoyable. After sometime I just gave up and left because it seemed that too many people were using
this forum to get all warm and fuzzy with others, far too often there was an "apology post" and even some whining.
I hope all is better now. so having said that...heres to a new session.
Regards
Dingle

That's been replaced by "I'm leaving this place", threads and the inevitable followup of "Okay, I'm back."

I can tell you haven't been lurking. Any resemblence to what you describe has surely been consumed by the flames

No worries Mate, now the fashion is to flame and burn--there are some real Ahs on the borads now, not to mention the know-it-alls1
Join in and have fun!
I remember some good posts but not your old handle.
<< <i>there are some real Ahs on the borads now >>
And some of them spell worse than a first-grader.

Yes, that is the fashion, if one is prone to ego grandstanding and ripping other people.....

I'd say it's partly cloudy with a chance of thunderstorms. Reminds me of New England weather...wait 15 minutes and it'll change

An obvious slip of the fingers.
<< <i>All I know is that there is great info here, and quite a few nice people. But whatever you do, try not to be human and express frustration or any emotion, because I guess that's not tolerated here. Another thing you should not do is to (in good humor) try to humble yourself. that also gets you in trouble. Other than that, it seems like a good place. >>
I agree. In between all the silly replies and dumb answers (just to get your post count high) there is some good information.

You might get away with it after you've been here a while, but it certainly isn't a good strategy for newbies.
...and quit your bellyachin'.

So only those who have been here for a while and reached some level of acceptance by the herd are allowed to bellyache without being slammed?
Thin skinned and a bit melodramatic on my part, but that's human emotion for you. There certainly isn't a need for the level of nastiness that some people have expressed as it relates to my childish behavior, is there?

I'm hyper-sensitive, and you have hurt my feelings.

I'd give you the world, just because...
Speak to me of loved ones, favorite places and things, loves lost and gained, tears shed for joy and sorrow, of when I see the sparkle in your eye ...
and the blackness when the dream dies, of lovers, fools, adventurers and kings while I sip my wine and contemplate the Chi.
