In multiple posts, since the beginning I already agreed with other members that a dislike button wouldn't be a good idea and said at least 2-3x this was more of me just ranting and this was about safety and new members recommending mechs and sub-ohming to noobs who weren't even asking about them.

So I really don't get the point of your comment since it's not even relevant in any way. How does that even relate to trying to prevent possible safety issues for new inexperienced users, from trying to filter out bad advice from other members?

Looks like your just trying to be condescending and sarcastic and even without a dislike button, you seem like you'd do a good job all by yourself making this a hostile forum the 1 month you been a member on ECF.

No need for you to respond, because I will no longer waste my time replying to you in any thread on ECF.

Sorry you feel that way.

I think this is a great forum, with the exception of a whole lot of over sensitivity, and people's intolerance of trying to have a little fun and joke around while staying off of cigarettes and expanding our collective knowledge.

Too much, "that doesn't help, rabble rabble rabble harrumph"-ing, and too many people taking themselves far too seriously.

Lighten up, it would be a shame if you counterbalanced any positive effects of not smoking, with self inflicted stress.

If you were wondering about the point of my "enemies" list suggestion, it was merely to point out the futility and divisiveness of your own "dislike" option, by taking it a step further. You see while I may be a noob here, I'm quite a veteran of forums, and despite your opinion of me, I have had quite a following in the past. But this isn't about tooting my own horn, rather, I've already seen what havoc a "dislike" button can wreck on a forum.

Wouldn't a "Caution" button be more poignant than a dislike button, if we are buttoning our top button and being all about safety?

I replied anyway, ... Sue me.

I agree. It'd cause a 'lil trouble at first with trolls and whatnot, but this site is meant for people 18+ so we should all be mature enough to accept the fact not everyone likes everything we have to say. Other than that it'd be a great tool to weed out those noob/troll suggestions and maybe even help the noobs improve by realizing they need to learn what to properly do in said situation or learn something from anther persons perspective.

Your answer belies your Screen Name. Wisdom. ( ... Betting I was one the noobs being referenced) :?:

No, no, don't do it, LOL.



On a more serious note, great avatar Robin. I was shocked when I heard the news. You just never know what someone is going through unless you're walking in their shoes.

I have great memories meeting Robin Williams. That was taken in 2008 I do believe. It was a few months before his heart surgery. He was so nice. I got a kiss :blush: and a little Dancing With the Stars kinda thing during that Meet and Greet. One of the highlights of my life :wub:
I was/am heartbroken over his death. :cry:

You've been around a while, I am surprised you haven't figured it out yet tayone415 - there are trolls, dang trolls and then there is our new member TCM... he lives to troll, his trolliness is only surpassed by his love of bacon and the word analog.

In the interests of forum harmony I want to point out that the word troll in this case is used purely as a term of endearment for TCM

I bet that was an awesome experience! It is truly sad. He was a great person and an iconic actor. Jumanji was one of my favorite movies as a kid.

Believe it or not, he's the first one I've dealt with so far.

I'm not trolling, I'm strolling.

But seriously InTheShade, how am I supposed to be?

No fun?
No joking?

Nah, I was joking too my cloud minding friend. Hence the white part of my post and my professing you to an eternal love of bacon and the word analog.

It's just hard to understand the context in the written word and some may take certain comments more personally than others.

I say joke-on, some will get it, others won't - either way it's not really for anyone to police so long as we all stay in the forum rules.

I enjoyed your analog thread and I thought that set a tone for you - maybe others didn't read it, but I really don't think you a troll, which is why I called you one... does that even make sense?

This is a tough forum. I want to stay centered around topics, but still make people laugh if at all possible. That seems to be a very narrow path to walk on ECF with so many people having Waterskiing Proof hind-ends.


I'm just going to keep on keeping on the way I know how, and if I get booted, I get booted, although if it does boot me, it would be the first forum to actually boot me.

<interjection for thread relevant post> A Dislike Button is a very bad idea. <We now return you to your regularly scheduled TCM post>

I love Bacon, it's my favorite food.

Do you know the only food not made better by adding Bacon?










Bacon. Well, 'cause it's already Bacon.

You've made ME laugh just about daily since you've been here. But you're right, it *IS* a tough forum. Senses of humor sometimes seem awfully hard to find around here. Maybe it's cigarette withdrawal. :D

Hmm, I disagree. Anything better WITH bacon... is better yet with MORE BACON!!! :D

But I feel the same about lettuce, and whipped cream. ;)
