"This is a wind up" was acceptable in the olden days.

But not now.

There's been a few threads recently where the OP was not about begging, emotional vampires, beyond the pale stuff and that ilk.

Just stuff, that if you were having a conversation with your mates, you'd express incredulity.

Why can't these comments be left to stand, rather than a reflex actoin of just zapping them?

Surely there's a difference between a "you've gotta be kiddin" and trill hunting?

Please, please take each comment/thread as a separate case, I really think there's a danger of spoiling the boards with this eagerness to eradicate any implucation of doubt.

I agree. They are trigger happy.
The thing is, what are we going to do about it?
Eh, Eh?

Trigger happy, LBE.

That's what I'm saddened about.

oh the irony, a thread talking about zapping a chaos has her computer problem again Grin

LadyBeagleEyes · 10/09/2012 23:38

I'm taking you seriously Chaos.
Um, what was your point again?

ChaosTrulyReigns · 10/09/2012 23:33

Bah.

Just once, I would like a thread to be taken seriously.

That taxi rank thread needs to go in to classics.
It's very funny.
And even though the Op left, someone coincidentally stepped in that totally agreed with her, which was A Good Thing. Wink

It's their website and they can do what they like

Not quite as pithy as TSSDNCOP, but true.

Ah man, I have one important deadline and my head goes down all morning and I miss everything!!!!!!!!

Granted, I was making money...but I hate it when my career interrupts my MNetting time!!

Also, I agree with Chaos. The deletions have been OTT lately. And I never think that.

I have discovered "Desperado" Tequila flavoured bottled beer and am ever so slightly in love Grin

The biggest shame about the school finishing time rage thread being deleted was losing bruxeur's genius riposte:

Whoa! That's, like, really appalling! Does anyone else get, y'know, really ragey about the bear poo littering the woods these days? Read all about how this makes me special on my blog www.popecatholicfuckinghell.com.

I was going to reply to it but it was a Daily Mail link so I am refusing

If it really was an AIBU then I wouldn't have complained.

If it was just "look at this" then it's not an AIBU, but you can always use Chat instead.
