No matter how badly the squirrel wants to change the light bulb, the light bulb will never change.  It will always be a light bulb.

How old are you?  Did you know there was a thing called Instant Messenger?  Every thread you're in becomes a chat between you and anyone else.  This one hasn't yet, but it's still stupid.  Your poem thread looks like this:

Ghetto John
Someone
Ghetto John
Someone Else
Ghetto John
Someone New
Ghetto John....

I'm so sick of reading it, I don't even bother to stop in.  You're not that clever or funny, and 'Oh, yeah' posts are worthless.  Ya twit.

Yeah, I understand "Disgusted"...yes, it's a tad annoying, but you can always try to ignore it even though it's sorta difficult.  But at the very least, tell it to him face-to-face.  This is sorta cowardly :-/

I don't like when someone has something to say, but are too chicken to, so they act as a guest.  I don't mind when people are guests in general, but if you have something to say, it's not like we're going to hate you for the rest of your life if you stay under your screen name.

You know, that is very immature. You are calling Ghetto John immature but yet you come in as a guest and call him names.  He is just trying to respond to what people say. I don't see anything wrong with him posting as much as he does. If you don't like what he has to say DON'T READ IT!!!!!! Everyone has the right to state their opinion but when that includes calling people names, I think that is going a bit too far.

I agree.  If there are only a couple of people on the board, it only makes sense that they might post back and forth.  Especially when someone starts a thread that is asking for an answer to a question and marks "Notify of Responses".  That way, others aren't sitting around waiting for the answer.
Or, you go back to the index and there is something new and curiousity makes you go look.  You respond, etc.  I don't think it's intentional.

BTW, I know I'm fairly new here, but why did you choose this thread to make this point?  Philbo Baggins posted twice as many times as Ghetto John.  If you had a problem with it, haven't YOU heard of Instant Messenger?  You should have had the guts to tell him to his face.  I have been in other posts where it seems that 2 or 3 people are having a "conversation" and it doesn't bother me.  I just move past it and go on doing what I was planning.  

Maybe you're just jealous that you haven't been part of one of these... ::)

I think the beef is that John doesn't usually have "posts of substance"...there is also a private message function on this board that allows one to do an IM type conversation.

As for Philbo, he posted twice as many times as John, yes, but whereas Phil's post were over the past couple years, John's posted that much in less than a couple months.  

But I shouldn't talk, I've been on a rampage ;)

I'm glad you defended John.  He has a right to post.  I guess he just needs to learn to make full use of his posts in the future.

Oh, I didn't even look at the total number of posts, I was just referring to that particular thread.

I guess the reason that I defended him is that I have found myself doing the same thing.  And, since I'm fairly new to boards, I don't quite know the whole "board etiquette."  I just think that if "Disgusted" had a problem with the way John posted, he should have gone directly to him (privately) and said exactly what you stated about making full use of his posts, or just made a general statement regarding how "some people" tend to have conversations between themselves, as he is not the only one I have seen do it.

Anyhoo...enough before I get myself reprimanded ;)

I say if Ghetto John wants to post-then let him. At least he isn't calling anyone a twit.

It's a bit like the "I'm gonna get maaadddd" thread - you have someone ostensibly complaining about something, and they end up looking sillier and more immature than whoever/whatever they're complaining about...

"uwish@noteven.com" - I wonder if anyone actually has that email address...

sorry this was aimed at Disgusted just wanted you guys to know that thanks for the support, but i still think i need to take a break and think of some more topics that lack even more substance, so what if they dont have substance, im 17 there fore i have no substance, do you want me talk about some serious issue, if i have one i will, but until then, im here to have a little fun in the board, thanks for the support im out!
