Especially if it's your own.

What's this little Warn meter thing I have now? does it go up by ones, tens, twenty fives? Someone warn me please
 
  • #65
What's it take to get a warning around here? I would have expected a bit more competence from you gurus.
Sorry, I shouldn't have said that. I didn't mean it. I would like to be warned though just so I don't have to look over and see my name and a big 0 right underneath it.
I think warning meters should start at 100% and go down to 0.

If you get 15 points you get banned. If you're very nice, I'll give you a "get out of banning free" card, aka GOOBF. The problem with GOOBF cards is that they can expire at any time without warning. :devil:
 
  • #67
I can be warned 15 times? seems like quite a few infractions.
lol, I was sitting here typing and your picture is right there and I completely lost my train of thought. You really are beautiful, you know that?
 
  • #68
Evo, does being a licky licky brown nose count as being 'very nice'?

Also, can you rig it so that we can all keep an eye on his warningometer please? I think we have a right to know when he's pleased you and Moonbeast.

there's a difference between being a brown nose and being suddenly overwhelmed

Yeah, but they both have brown noses. However you are quite beautiful evo (said, of course, in a way that my wife would not mind in the least). :approve:

i.e. When you get banned.

hmmm, I think I'll try it your way: u89olkji xdfv c QWSZa bhjm n /;[]
' r56ygft serfcxd i90plko u89okji r56ygft

seems like I can't help hitting the letter I want and all the ones around it.
I guess it's just too big. I wish I didn' have such a big nose.

reminds me of a topic on a now (almost) dead forum: http://s11.invisionfree.com/science/index.php?showtopic=546

Okay, I come in here to find that Tribdog is back (you can tell because he left a mess on the carpet ), he blew up a mountain, someone squeezed him and his vine fell off (or something like that), and Franz and Smurf were having some sort of queer deal... (or something like that). What else is new?

:smile:

A single warning can be 7 points.

lol, I was sitting here typing and your picture is right there and I completely lost my train of thought. You really are beautiful, you know that?
:biggrin: I see you picked up on my subtle hint. <sticks GOOBF card into Trib's computer>

danger danger

At least you didn't add 'Will Robinson'... :biggrin:
 
  • #79
I try to stay away from three syllable words whem I am talking to you
 
  • #80
Why? Don't have time to look them up?
 
  • #81
lol. good one
 
  • #82
I guess this should prove once and for all that I'm not you in disguise.
 
  • #83
I don't think that was ever an issue.
It takes more than one to make you me
 
  • #84
I didn't want to bring up your weight problem...

edit: Oh crap! I just realized what time it is. I was supposed to close up shop 10 minutes ago. I'll see if I can get back between my cash-out and my pool match.
 
  • #85
no hurry, take your time
 
  • #86
:smile: And here we were all worried that Danger had done something horrid to tribdog to get rid of the competition. I guess that disproves that hypothesis once and for all.
 
  • #87
I'm a little bit offended that you consider Danger competition
 
  • #88
Well, we suspected he might have been your evil, older, Canadian twin. :biggrin:

Notice that they never post in the same post, only in the same thread.:rolleyes: Coincidence, I think not.
