Msgboard Chatroom Marathon

Msgboard Chatroom Marathon

Honestly, I would go to IRC for this kind of stuff, but if any of you have been there recently, everyone seems to be...inactive. Sooooooooo, out of boredom, I'm turning a thread among this msgboard into a chat room, anyone care to join? =P.

It's Sunday night, and I'm bored out of my mind. There's much to do, but I'm too lazy to get around to do it. My boyfriend is busying trying to get Visual Studios to work so I can't talk to him on the phone....and we can't seem to talk over the phone anyways...it'll just be silence mostly.

New Semester started........so anyone alive out there to join Elffie in this chat marathon? =P

Let's try not to let this post hang for over 2 hours, hm? =P

I keep saying I miss all the action. Really, I'm glad I did miss it - I'd probably have found it too upsetting.

/me needs some chocolate

It's gone quiet in here. Hmmm.../me decides this might be a good time to sneak up on feline with that special extra furry tickling stick I have.

i was wondering, how many people here have actually read this entire thread?

I have read every post...Why???...I think it is an obsession...

Folder Options > File types and change the 'open with' for HTML to word? Might work.

I've read the whole thing since day one. Didn't post anything for quite a while though because I thought I might be intruding on something private. I guess a lot of people feel like that when they look at this thread.

I never watch daytime dramas, but I do love chocolate!!!
I read all the posts on this board (unless they disappear before I read them)

Erm, what'd shmoopy do to get exiled?

Back home, dentists don't believe in knocking people out and cutting the teeth out. They always do it one by one. Pull one out, wait till the wound heals, then do it again. That way, it ensures that the muscles in the jaw has time to correct itself and vice versa.

You know what's pissing me off? I'm a moderator for a community (Endeffect), and that board is going to hell. A bunch of children are being assholes, and people are turning to me calling for help. I told the board I'll talk about the entire thing with the admin...

So I took the time to come up with a few rules so the admin wouldn't have to do too much work. It's been over a goddamn week, he not only hasn't answered that one single email, he told me he'll answer it within one or two days. That was last sunday. It's Friday, I had sent the original email last tuesday.

I'm so annoyed. I'm being pushed to do something about the crap at a community, and I don't have the power to do so. The only person who does doesn't care... What the hell am I suppose to do?!?

Well, Elf, I have taken refuge here. At first I thought the other board would sort itself out. Some things take time; some people are too burned out and depressed to take action. But then, this is becoming more and more my home. Lately, all I do is censor, delete, and ban.

'sides. This is a happy place. The people are good. I am happy here. There is lots of chocolate.

I have to agree, goodmorphing, but the moderator list for that board is starting to drop. The number of good moderators are decreasing, and the admin is never there.

This is why I love Wincustomize so much. The admins are always within reach, our wizops and moderators are often around if anything happens. I know them all and talk to them frequently. It's just a much more caring community and no childish crap break out every five minutes.

I'll just ignore the little fact that I'm spoiled by everyone here at wincustomize

For me, I can relax here and just be myself. Some people there seemed to feel threatened by intelligence... though I'm surely not the brightest bulb anywhere. I used to post a lot of stuff... and the next post would be I'm not bright enough to understand that, or talented enough to do that....
Reply #5718 Top
... everyone stopped liking my stuff, or even commenting, and instead it was all 'oh poor baby you are too smart'. Then it would go on 'am not'. 'are too'....

Bright bulbs?

I'm no bright bulb... just a bulb who plays cute with everyone

Elf, yea I've been a target of one person. I've called WorldComm to see what they could do. But they can't do anything unless it's a death threat basically. So, it's up to me to take it in my own hands over thet net evilgrin.

I should throw some chocolate patties at them.

werewolf is in a quandary...

werewolf - how do I make Word the default HTML editor?

which OS are you running?

under winXP pro (and presumably home) if you install the microsoft winXP Tweak UI powertoy, this lets you set this.
Internet Explorer -> View Source -> "Change Program" button

however, why do you want to use word? surely you should be using gvim? *innocent grin*

oh all right, perhaps not. it does take a little bit of getting used to

if you get stuck, let me know. i know a web site with the reg key to set, since that is the standard way of setting gvim to be the default editor on win9x, win2k.

JavaBean - I doubt that anyone here will ever need to know this, but if you ever get a warning from an admin, please pay attention to it. If you don't follow the warning, you will probably be exiled.

a sensible warning. it is just sad that these thinks need to happen at all.


JavaBean - FL, it's too cold to expose my belly button ring. Maybe when it warms up. Of course, I am so white (and stay that way) that I may blind anyone that looks!

/me wonders...........
if a load of warm furry and fuzzy creatures were to give you a MASSIVE group hug, do you think this would keep you warm enough so that you could show us your belly button?

/me is curious

I'm a target of many people, whether just or unjust. I think we all have, and it's just one theme that causes it all to be like that. Everyone has different perspectives . That, it itself, has nothing wrong.
