Talkback is Fluff.

Recommended Posts

Quote

I had a post deleted because I was offering the skydiving community a chance to apply for a Job that is available at my work. . .it was advertisement and therefore breaking the rules, so I understood when they let me know. . .no biggie. . .

. . .



I too had one deleted like that and I didn't mind but half the posts on here are "advertising" - come to this dz - go to that dz - this boogie - that boogie - who decides what is an ad and what isn't? Why do some people get away with posting the same exact post in four different forums and others get forked for it?

BUT - once you are warned - it's not very bright to deliberately antagonize the powers that be. It's a pretty nice site and it is their playground.

And isn't talkback supposed to be Fluff? Either Fluff (Please, please, look at me!) or everyone arguing about the evil American's trying to dominate the world and making it an unsafe place to skydive and guns - let's not forget about guns! Oh by the way - Sebastian is doing $15.00 jumps to 15,000 Fridays for awhile. - Is that an ad or a public announcement for all my fellow skydiving friends? I'm so confused:S

Most of the boogie threads are in the Events Forum. The original purpose of the forum and what it has become are 2 different things. HH has contemplated trashing the whole forum and just having the Calendar for boogie announcements. Then again, if we delete the Events forum, then those posts will end up in TB. I don't think we want that either. Posting a job for one person is a little different than posting a boogie for the masses.

As far as cross-posting goes, I hate it! :ph34r: If it gets by in some forums and not others, it's mostly because different mods do different forums. Or, it could just be that we miss things. We do have a life off the internet....sometimes. :P

I was just being bratty!:)
you guys do whatever you want! I actually think you all do a pretty decent job of maintaining this site. I really was just shit stirring for no apparent reason...but can't you delete half of the really, really, really lame ones. Or can't we just start a new forum for the I'm really insecure and need everyone to tell me how sexy and cute I am postings? Wow, where'd that come from - you would think I want to be banned today:o. If no one is named - is it a personal attack? AND I guarantee you that there is someone out there that I know - that this is not aimed at because it isn't aimed at anyone - who is going to take offense to it.

We do, I think that's why this thread was started to begin with! :ph34r:

What's lame to one person is perfectly wonderful to another. We can't make that distinction....unfortunately. :P

I'm sorry, I was feeling really fat and ugly that day and needed attention. ;)

I'm still trying to figure out why this thread was locked. Not that I have the right to question anyone about it, but I though it was all in good fun.



You have no right to question us, I'm banning you now for that! :P

I don't know actually, it wasn't my doing. Sunshine did call Aggiedave a "big sicko pervert" and Rosa called DaGimp and "ignorant slut", but those phrases would fall under the arguement of "if it's true, is it really a personal attack?"

Heehee....just kidding guys. ;)
