I can't think of anyone in this virtual world that I miss. I enjoy watching the banter but also got sick of the slagging and nastiness that I had witnessed in the last 7-9 months. My posting dropped off as a direct result. that said.. welcome back De-sade. It is genuinely good to see you. splendid
Only just started posting again on here so I think I missed the nastiness? God I do miss some posters but new ones are starting to appear so we can't put them off posting I have tried putting up a couple of threads but they die very quickly so it kinda makes me think either I am totally boring in my ideas or that threads just go that way I am on holiday at the moment which is why I have become a site addict again and by next week I will be on here far less.
just make sure you have our msn old friend, good to see you, always knew where the pm button was, just a little concerned you had forgot the site and hope someone would nudge you to your mailbox
Hiya De_sade.... nice to see you :smile: Hope all is good and life is treating you well? I, myself always give myself a break away every now and then, for all types of reasons...some planned, some not!!! :smile: I just turn up again when I'm ready and quietly slip back into the fold... no drum roll, can't be bothered with that, its not important for me nor do I have the ego for it. Members come and go, always good to see new and old faces back in whatever guise... :smile: Not sure I actually miss anything... maybe some posters who had a *way* of making me giggle out loud unexpectedly without realising how amazingly witty and funny they were being. They have been some memorable threads/posts and they will be more! I do think they are some new posters/members to the forum though that have some of the same qualities, given the chance... :smile: Surely though, its the contribution thats made to a forum from anyone that makes a site work, not the size or quality to a post thats important? For some....making that initial first post is quite a daunting first step. Yes, there is forum ettiquete... maybe we should be a little more helpful to those that are new? xanaisx
I'm still here but I miss everyone who has left or is taking a break. Like most people I feel like a peripheral person standing on the sidelines as everyone else joins in with in jokes and banter. That I'm afraid is the nature of the forum. As I said in a thread recently, people come and go but the forum abides. Nice to see you back de Sade now say something contraversial.

Sorry for the quick hijack but Keeno, I do have to disagree with you here. I never think of you as being one of the people on the sidelines. In the middle of it all maybe, but never on the sidelines

I don't really 'miss' anyone - all those who I enjoy being with I still enjoy being with, others have lit up my cyber life briefly and flitted away. I'm all the better for their having been around. Others have dulled my cyber life briefly and flitted away (perhaps with a shove, perhaps of their own free will -matters not) and this place is all the better for their not being around. Same theme, just another thread! :P
it may be true that forums are not as lively as they used to be... but I honestly think that is due to the popularity of the chat rooms now. When the site was first sold like many others I was concerned and worried. however I have to say the site quickly settled and now I honestly feel is a better place than before. Sure there are old memebrs that i miss not being around... but hell..sme bloody great new members as well.
Quote by de_sade I saw you in the supermarket a couple of weeks ago, so i know you are still around Dave_Notts
How was your pizza Dave?
That was ages ago bud......I saw you a couple of weeks ago......but you both looked fazed out with the little un asking for something. Don't interupt a dog eating a bone or a parent discipling their child in my books :lol: The last pizza was great tho.....how was yours? Dave_Notts
Hi de-sade....nice to meet you I'm fairly new....but am trying to break into the forum by being nice and posting different things, so I hope you don't mind me butting in on your thread. I am trying to make friends and hopefully become a reg on here (am working on it anyways ) I personally havent found the boards to be nasty to newbies....but then again I haven't been flamed for anything yet!! Indeed I hope I never am, cos I am such a delicate little flower (as seen on my profile) and would be put off for life by any nasty shenanigins directed towards me. :shock: I think its the same on lots of forums tho...they seem to have people hell bent on being 'trolls' (what they are called on Ebay forums) and being nasty from behind the anonymity of a user ID just for the sake of it.....they need to get a life IMHO
........ still here! :smug: IMHO ....... you get out what you put in ..... sometimes I am quiet, sometimes I am not! p.s. Welcome back Sam xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I'm still waiting for the next blog update, I never understood any of it but read them all us they were posted, De_Sade's blog for me was like a good book, interesting plot, mysterious................ and left me thinking what comes next

Oh you've got to get flamed You will always remain a newbie until you've upset someone on here. Flaming is part of THE FORUM experience. :wink: I've been flamed, banned, gone off in a sulk come back. The trick is not to take anything said here personaly. :wink:
Quote by keeno The trick is not to take anything said here personaly.
And that is often incredibly difficult. Thing is, you see some pointed comment, think it's aimed at you, then become paranoid that everything is aimed at you in one way or another. Human nature really, I suppose.
Oh and did I mention, walking away? If you get into a heated discussion and you think its getting personal, walk away. LOg off and take a break. THere really is no merit in being right and upsetting people. Nothing discussed here is that important.
