Um, just a thought, I don't think samui can be used to describe kaze, since samui is only used to describe the weather ("kyo wa samui desu", "it's cold today"). Although the wind is a weather phenomenon, it's not weather in itself. So your nick really should be "Tsumetaikaze".


Ahhh..... Honto desu ka? Shiranakkata! Ore wa chotto baka ne!

Yes...yes... hehe "Tsumetaikaze wa hooga ii desu demo ... In your little lesson there did it ever pass you mind that it done this way on purpose? Hmm...

Thanks for the trying to give the lesson ... & Nooo... I really really "don't" think I should be changing my name. [Roll Eyes]

Also ... whats this trip about "locking" thread you lot have in here. heheh Geeze...!

Threads are locked when they serve no purpose. Like this one. Instead of continuing with the other thread in which you quoted another member, you proceeded to make a new thread when it was unnecessary. If no one had seen the other thread, they would have no idea what you are talking about here.

Here's a friendly piece of advice from someone who's NOT an admin here. Stop trying the patience of the ones who are.

You guys are too hard on newbies. Everyone was once a newbie and had very little information on the rules.

Of COURSE we're hard on NEWBIES! We want them to STOP BEING NEWBIES! Being hard on them is a good way to get them out of Newbieitis!

Silly Matrix. Silly.

Hell, we're still hard on colin/targetemployee when he pulls this crap, and he's one of the oldest members here!

I still think that if we'd been more on top of dispensing fatal-beatings when the problems started, some of these people would have turned out very different.

Dukhat,
The reason I open this thread and also put the comment about "Locking" threads was because the other "was" locked when I came in here last time.

Listen, I maybe be a noob to your thing you have going here. That doesn't mean I'm a poxy noob to forums. Also that doesn't mean I expect to drop to my knees to get kicked every time one of you feel I do something that cuts against the grain.

Hey, I came here to engage with what I thought were cool people in a cool forum. Not to logon to see someone taking the piss to buff his or her egos up. So back off a bit ... lighten up.

And just so you know TSN I'm a "He". So what the "fuck" are you talking about bub?

Hmm.? Now that didn't sound too nice now did it? Look, I'm not in here to have a bad time. The opposite is what I was looking for. If you guys that have had a crap time with ass-holes passing through taking the piss, think that "this" is the way to treat "all" new people I'm afraid you are wrong. You need to drop the "guilty till proven innocent" attitudes. It just makes this place feel "real" hostile.

In the end all you are doing is getting my back up even more... which in turn makes me feel like I want to kick back. I know when I'm out numbered, but is that what it�s about here? Walking through a "kicking" tunnel? If you make it ... "yeah! You can stay" if not piss off? With this style in the end no one wins because the n00b to your forum get pissed off and walks.

Is that what you lot are about? I hope not.

Yes, because that last post is going to make us all want to give you big bear hugs and slobbering kisses.

Not.

I personally believe that all newbies should be given a chance. The only time I will bash newbies whn they start posting: WOH ARE UR FAVROIGHT CHRACTAR. I TINK CPTIAN IKRK IS KOOL HTQT EH SOUHLD BE BOUGHRT BCKA ALIFE LIKE mr. SHITNER ROTE ABOUT.

You never seen the Matrix pissed off.

Edit: You seem to be fairly intelligent. So far you really haven't earned any bashing via the way of the DARKSTAR.

Is that "you have never seen the Matrix pissed off" you "you never see(-n) the Matrix pissed off"?

Yes, well, Darkstar was a special case. He had more then one chance, and we were very patient with him ... up to a point. Now he's gone, and we're sad. Oh well.

Regulars on this forum win. There is a strong desire to NOT be the next TrekBBS. One of the most successful ways of doing that, is to be hard on newbies. Yes, it drives a lot of them that off, but instead of mass quantities of conversations, we have quality of conversation. Except in the Flameboard. That's just a spitting contest.

It doesn't matter if you've been surfing the net and UBB forums for twenty years. If you're a newbie to Flare, you'll be treated like a newbie. Already, you've got points in your favor because you can spell and use grammar. Congrats!

Flare is like the US Navy SEALs of the science-fiction forums. Anyone can apply, only a special few can get in. It's not like we take a vote, either. Its more like natural selection. And its NOT like older, veteran members don't get lots of ribbing and teasing either. You're not being singled out for "bashing" because you're a newbie. Hell, Omega gets bashed all the time ... look at my .sig ... [Smile]

Read Captain Mike's post. He registered September 5th, and I think we'd all accepted him by October 5th. He's a ... well, crazy and strange guy. Chill out, stop thinking your previous internet surfs count to anything here (everyone starts with a clean slat), and start posting to relevent discussions.

Seen Episode II? Go to the Star Wars forum. We've got a few threads going in there -- the colors of the lightsaber, discrepencies in the age of the Republic, what will we see in Episode III?

Go to the Enterprise forum. Contribute. Go to the Star Trek forums. Contribute.

Contribute. Contribute. Right now, it only seems like you're bitching. Bitching. Bitching. Bitching. Ew.

I think it could be both.

Darkstar was a very special case, as you gusy insulted him and then he said he never will come back. Then he came back, then said he's leaving for good, then comes back and calls Flare something stupid and leaves. I think he comes back again, dunno.

I used to support him, but then after a few things like that, I started to ignore him.

+10 points for the whole "fuck"-thing. I shall never write "fuck" again without using the new-wave format-jive.
