[OLD]The Chat/Spam Thread

[Kool-Aid Man]

someone has just spent his first day on the internet!

Hardly, but think what you please. I simply have high expectations of (supposed) adults, especially when they're a moderator. Considering the tone of the post in which he blew a raspberry, so to speak, it's apparent that the intent of said post was to point out that the fellow without access to the new version of mRatio is in a lower caste here. What's the purpose of harassing someone because they've not been promoted? I just can't fathom the thought process behind his actions, and asked a serious question about his actions. I notice that my primary inquiry was ignored, which is very telling.

you are the first person I've met that interprets that emoticon as blowing a raspberry which would be offensive. Relax, it is not. It's just a more playful version of " ". Please try not to be offended this easily. This is just the internet, after all. Knowing anon, this is not the impression he wanted to give at all. I would hardly call an emoticon like that harassing and you can hardly guess the tone of a person you've just met by reading his text. And it is true that this person can't access that download just yet.

Also, as a sidenote, a lot of people here haven't reached the adult age yet. As I said, relax and try to take things easy.

No one said I was offended, did they? No one but you, at least. I simply think the use of any emoticon is infantile, and it, along with "AOL speak" and the unwillingness of people who text message to use complete words, have ruined the English language permanently. Beyond that, I was taught long ago that sticking my tongue out at someone was not to be done because it was completely improper. Maybe it's too much to expect everyone to act like myself, but I get far more compliments than complaints about my manners. That said, maybe not.

You're right, though. I don't know anon. I'd guess that neither don't either. It's not possible to "know" someone by way of words on a screen. Do you really believe that everyone you converse with online is who they say they are? Helpful hint: They're not. It's next to impossible to know someone that you've met in person, let alone though the use of the internet, a monitor, and a keybard. It's too easy to conceal and obfuscate the truth and to create a personality to show to others. You do not know his intent, and I'd much rather hear it from him, if you don't mind.

As for the "adult age" thing, I don't deal with children under any circumstance, primarily because they aren't capable of being logical or rational. Knowing that I've unwittingly put myself among them is quite unsettling.

You have divided 'age' in a very odd one way. Remember, no one goes from being a child to >>>>> being an adult, that's what Sazzy meant. You see; it's not either you're a child or an adult, so don't be 'unsettled' because you haven't put your self with children.



Edit:

I don't deal with children under any circumstance

Aren't you going to have some ?

I hope the emoticon was not 'infantile'
