ROFL. What intelligent person refers to themselves as 'brainy'. Anyway, you weren't brainy at all, but you were rude and pompous.

I accept your apology.


...because you totally have Prok's "post without actually saying anything" style down...

Not natural? *gasp*
i CAN do all that comfortably, in fact i like it, because it allows me to make stuff and communicate with my friends at the same time, or explore and tip my friends about cool places all at once.

Well i don't have a car so no idea about that one.



Well then if you like it, why are you complaining. I use 'YOU' in the community sense.

I'm sorry you feel that way. And actually, I fit my sig to the size of the center table...perfectly. I don't know what your problem is. *shrugs*

...and you keep adding new information every time you post!

"I'm much better than you and your kind because you're arrogant and full of yourself."

Back to the actual issue...

I used to not like the new box but I'm used to it now and can work my way around with it. I adapted to change as a neccessity. I find it worth even less effort to complain about it than complaining about ageplay and broadly offensive content and all that stuff.

It's possible for it not to work for you but work for others. You don't have to be an asshole just because the other team doesn't have the same problem you have or has a problem you don't have.

Mike's probably frustrated by how the majority of the forum dwellers seem to be resistant to change or progress without giving it a chance. He's probably also frustrated at how anyone who says "hey I kinda like it and here's why" is called a fanboy or cheerleader for LL because they're not taking the popular opinion on the forum (which isn't neccessarily the actual SL popular opinion). Talk about descrimination and "community fracturing"!

I don't think anyone in this conversation is oblivious to the fact that some people won't be able to use voice for multiple reasons and no one has a problem with that no matter how much you want them to.

You can't hear.

You don't like talking on the phone and this feels the same to you.

You like privacy and this seems to intrude on that for you.

That's fine. FOR YOU.

That doesn't mean there aren't benefits to it and it doesn't mean there aren't people out there that like it.

And if you don't like how SL is run...build your own! www.multiverse.net


And you, my dear fellow, like Michael, have obvioulsy failed to read our original posts or, more likely, have failed to understand them.

Have fun!

I was being cute by using 'brainy'--sorry, next time I'll be completely dry and clear. Sheesh, you guys love a good fight...keep trying to push my buttons.

I'd love the irony....get you guys on voice, and hear what your REALLY made of.

Me thinks you wouldn't handle yourselves nearly as well. :) I'm just having fun guys...not flaming at all.

:)

Would people please stop quoting Squeezeone so much - it makes my ignore less effective.

Ya, that fits right in the white text area...I know how to fit images. It's by no means offensively fit in there.

And give me a break. It's a nice sig...instead of being a jerk, why can't you compliment it. Jesus, I wish more of YOU would create an interesting sig. There is nothing wrong with mine.

Sheesh. Can you guys chill out please...enough with the hate.

Colette...it's a shame that you have a fan base here...because really, you're not a nice person. You are aware that the people that stick together, all share the same negative attitude, and continue to flame whenever they see a slight opening.

I may be guilty of continuing the thread...but I'm just trying to get you to understand how other people see things.

Can we all just let this drop. What about if we forget about the past, and let the community thrive, instead of whither.

I didn't say WHICH formating it breaks, just that it breaks formating, which it does.

Why would I compliment it?

I could critique it artistically, but I don't think that's what you're looking for.

From: Michael Bigwig

Hate is informing you (factually) that your sig breaks formating?

There are options that let you not see sigs. I figured them out a long time ago and haven't had to deal with it since!

At the risk of being on topic and helpful with facts and stuff, you can go here to read how to make the IM window resize smaller. (for those late joiners)

Which changes a statement of fact how again?

You want to spend a whole paragraph being nasty to me and then say 'lets bury the hatchet'?

Where'd you learn diplomacy? from Kruschev?

That's actually pretty useful! I think I'll mess with that a little tonight.

Thanks for being the shining beacon of "On-Topicness"!

If its anything like past client-side UI hacks, though, the client over-rides it with every update.

That's my Reitsuki! Always looking at the bright side!

I would think most of the crowd that's into being able to have a say in their own experience in SL (which is what this box thing seems to be about) would be willing to go in and mess with that stuff after every mandatory upgrade.

You are correct. but I can live with that more so than a window that won't size small enough. :)

Can't be Prokky....Chas hasn't mentioned the pre-collapse Soviet Union or regaled us of exploits while working at the UN, etc. That's a true Prok-post :)

True...plus they aren't Wall Street Journal-sized posts. That's key!

The shoe does fit, Sir, and obviously you have been TPing a lot and it's not just your shoe that's stuck where ther sun don't shine.
As far as I know, I haven't called anyone an ass, so who's being rude here? Again, you are quite simply incapable of seeing how preposterous your posts really are.
I'd feel sorry for you if I were a more generous person.

Brenda, you were being nice to him. What do you think?

I got him to mention shoes. My work is done. ;)
