From: Rioko Bamaisin Good points and yes you are much saner. Most people are way more sane than I am. They let me post here anyway though. You should see the things I don't post....  I've been taking this class that is all about personalties and all happy crap like that. Unfortunately, because of this class I am starting to notice certain behaviors in people more and more. I think I alienated two friends this past week alone with my observations.  I think I need a class to learn how to shut the hell up . A little duct tape can fix that. |

From: Scylla Rhiadra When? Who?
I get that Jiggy rubs people the wrong way sometimes. And she doesn't always phrase things in the most diplomatic manner.
But I have never seen her "rip" anyone apart. On the contrary, I'm continually astonished at how good humoured she generally remains in the face of an awful lot of hostility.
I'd hate to see this turn into yet another "why Jig bugs me" thread. I also respect your opinion, Kira, and yours Rio. If that's the way you feel, so be it; we all respond to different personalities differently. I can't, and wouldn't try to tell you to like someone whom you obviously don't.
But I honestly don't think that Jig has a malicious bone in her body. I really hope I am not malicious. I will say one thing in my defense - if I wasnt outspoken and in-your-face in real life in what I do, I would soon be sidelined and starv - well, okay, starve is a overstatemenmt. But I love to be in the limelight - and I crave it everywhere I go. It's important in what I do that I am just that way in sl also. And forums, I cant help it. I wont ever say who I am and I am not being coy, but I love it here coz I get a chance to be me without being me if you get my meaning. And sl is really cool. You may not believe that but it really is; I get so many ideas from here or seeds anyway. Yeah I am a techno junkie and I am young (and immature with it) and I hope that if you laugh at me sometimes or ignore me sometimes, at least you have heard of me here and have thought about somethings I say. Jig is me in most ways. Even my ultra-moody ways. But I am also a professional in what I do and I know I have to always please my audience. In forums we each are performers. Pepe made one mistake - a bit liek Lenny Bruce, the great American comedian - he stopped being funny and started todevour himself. I am so shallow I hope I will always be funny. I dont mind "why Jig bugs me" coz I have to read a lotta stuff liek that. Right in front of me are 24 printouts I gotta read of that  I cant stop being who I am and one day I will be gone but until taht day comes, please enjoy what I say and get as shirty as you like. To paraphrase DH Lawrence, answering a jig thread is as much fun as a good sneeze; it clears th ehead. Now, I love you all and you know I do. (I'm such a diver), Jiggy.

From: Alastair Milneaux but with all due respect, making out with people to get stuff from them isn't "Friends With Benefits," it's prosti- *cough* gold-digging. This is why I want SL to implement avatar subsitution. If every time a girl plays like that, I can just overlay her chosen appearance with that of Miss Piggy, then a sense of proportion is maintained  |

From: Mickey Vandeverre Maybe not "malicious"....but if you phrase things in a manner that slights others, or judges others harshly or unfairly....even if a very broad generalization (and maybe the broader, the worse it is)....you have to be willing to accept the consequences. Maybe I misinterpreted, but seems like she is totally cool with that, because she stated that most people love her, so it shouldn't be a problem.
As for the privacy issue. Jig, you give far more RL information in here, in forum....that would be more of a problem than using voice. Add your RL sex history to it....and not cool. You've been warned before. Lol, poor Lear, I will admit, that when I went to unfriend him, I didnt realize he and I arent friends anyway. So I dont have to apologize but in a way I am. RL information yes BUT I have so much to tell you!!!! I swear I thought Lear Cale was a friend of mine - maybe that was another Lear...? Jig goes off to check her inventory of lovers, muttering to herself.

Maybe its my age maybe my background but my understanding of FWB is a friend someone you get along with who you go out with but not really as in a date that you sometimes sleep with, no strings attached. If your having sex with someone to get better seats at a concert or some other item well that has another name.
Oh and Jig cant be elton after all i dont think he would need to sleep with anyone to get better seats what "famous " person would if they are well known

From: Argent Stonecutter ... But I wasn't *looking* for RL connections. It just happened. We have been friends for three and a half years, only the last hand full of months has it become more than that.

morals don't even enter into it for me. i went through a couple of years of exploration and thoroughly enjoyed it but i've settled into a comfortable monogamous groove now simply because that's what makes me and my partner happy, in general and with each other.

Anyway, the guy was kinda dishy and seats were a liek popadums with a curry - they gave am extra edge to the whole meal. Dont bash Elton. He;s ok.

From: Lear Cale I have evidence that it was. Dont count on it. And dont be such a wanker next time. I'm good fun but even I have limits. Your okay - you just got carried away apologizing and forgot all about benefits. I'm travelling to morrow so I wont be on anywhere. Be good. Talk about me and remember to stay sober and be kind to your familaies in real and sl.

From: Lear Cale Cheating is violating your agreements, whatever they may be. Remember that, in case it's needed in a bots thread  |

From: Phil Deakins Remember that, in case it's needed in a bots thread It's only cheating if your caught. If you can get away with it why consider it cheating? Anyway, as far as I can see, women have learned to cheat from men.

Ahh so there is the reason cause" men taught women how to cheat"its ok ( this statement i do not agree with)
Your comment Jig about the seats really makes me feel you have such little value in yourself. I would like to think sex with a guy is something very special not a bargaining tool but for someone who keeps saying "Im this Im that " if you would you would not have to brag

From: Jig Chippewa It's only cheating if your caught. If you can get away with it why consider it cheating? uhm, because to get away with it, requires "it" to be something... specifically something that you weren't supposed to be doing? a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. (or in this case perhaps rose and sweet need replacing with something less pleasant)

From: Jig Chippewa It's only cheating if your caught. If you can get away with it why consider it cheating? The Conversation Manager has told Hal. Consider yourself caught. You've also been caught by the Grammar Police. Sadly, the Loony Bin you escaped from still can't seem to get their butterfly nets working properly. |
