    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Pssshhhh, ok TK. : I wasn't crazy about the name at first, but the name came with her.  We got her from a family that was getting rid of her, and she was rescue before that.  She is so super sweet though it makes me so sad to think of people hurting her.  And Stewie is being an awesome big doggie brother!

    Aw, poor Phoebe. :(  Good to hear Stewie is being good with her.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Pssshhhh, ok TK. : This bugs me.  I see people all the time talk about how much this place sucks and they want to leave, but never follow through. Empty threats are a big pet peeve of mine. It comes across like you're pining for people to say "but ZOMG I LOVE YOU, DON'T GO!!11!!"  If you hate it so much, then stop posting, for real.

    <div>You see people all the time talking about how frustrating TK's rules are and threatening to leave over that? Really?</div><div>
    </div><div>I see people talk about how this place is boring and bitching and moaning about it but sticking around. That bugs me - either stay and enjoy, or decide it's boring and leave quietly. And I see people complain about the IT bugs, which yeah, gets a little old because we all know they're there. But I really can't think of someone else who's talked about leaving on principle beyond LC.</div>

    Thanks! I worried it was too much like Daff's old sig, but then figured imitation is the highest form of flattery. Or whatever they say.
  • Beach, I'm glad the pups are playing nicely and really glad that you guys were able to give Phoebe a home :)
  • Yay for new pups Beach! I"m glad the little girl is doing well.
  • PHOEBE IS ADORABLE! And Birdie, I agree with Anna. Your new sig pic is gorgeous!

  • Thanks everyone!  I will share your love for them with extra kisses and belly rubs.  

    Stewie is doing really well with her so far.  I think he figures it's just another dog we are watching and she will eventually go home.  So we'll see what happens when we do our drive cross country and get to the new house and she is still there!  But he is being great, and they are getting along great.  The only thing is that she pees in the house sometimes, or will piddle when she gets nervous.  I'm trying to get her comfortable here and get her to stop doing that without scaring her.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Pssshhhh, ok TK. : ...What?  Dude, no.  LC is posting this because she really is pissed.  Not because she wants a ton of people to beg her to stay. <strong>Way to judge someone you don't even know.</strong>

    <div>Isn't this what happens every single FFF? Or pretty much every single day in random threads, for that matter?</div><div>
    </div><div>Edit: I realize this exact thread isn't really FFF since it got deleted, but my point stands.</div>

  • Oh goody.

    Lets be honest, LC is fucking awesome and I don't care if she has threatened to leave before.. She can't. i won't let her.

    Other posters on the other hand, well they can go ahead and leave for all I care.

    Oh, I have. A few months ago. September maybe? I was pissed off at the Knot Gods for telling us how to respond to other posters. I was pissed off because when I was a newb, it was a free for all and I didn't get mollycoddled by the TK gods like newbs do now. I think it's unfair. My saying this has nothing to do with the current vibe of the community, or anyone who posts here, or anything like that. Like EIC said, it's on principle.

    But again, if you think it's just a ploy for attention, have at it. I have plenty of ways to get in touch with all the friends I've made here, and I can interact with them with or without this board. My self esteem isn't such that I need confirmation about whether or not people want me around here. I know people like me. I've been here for almost three years, and I'm not insecure about how anybody in this community feels about me.

    <div>Then surely what you meant was "LC, I'm sick of you doing this same thing" rather than a blanket "I'm sick of multiple people doing this same exact thing?"</div>
  • Damn it, why do I have to have a job when it makes me miss three minutes of FFF/TKG whatever?
  • She was basically just stating what a lot of us feel.  I don't know who you think she's threatening.

    You can threaten me any time, LC. Kiss

  • Well, I too find "omg E sucks now, it used to be so much better, blah blah blah" posts really obnoxious. I do. I get that. But that wasn't what I was trying to convey. I don't think E sucks. Like I said, I really enjoy the community here. But I don't like how TK has regulated it for a long time now.

  • LP, I think I see where you're coming from. Maybe. Occasionally there is a vibe that older posters feel the board is too "soft," too happy, too boring, too glitchy, etc. I don't really see any empty threats, but I don't understand why people are here if posting isn't fun anymore. That being said, I have a serious boner for LC because she's pretty cool. If I could think of an awesome way to spice things up, I would.

    I agree completely, Anyone who complains about the content of a specific board is silly, you were complaining about outside forces.

    I get you lady.

  • LP, please see my sig quote in regards to how LC feels about KG censoring us. This isn't the first time she's made that threat, no. But they laid off. You might want to learn what conditional threats are before coming off looking like a snottwat.

    I appreciate the compliment but the bolded part is in no way true to anything I believe about this board. The board got soft because TK made us. That's not any single (or multiple) posters' fault, and truth be told, I don't think it's a bad thing. I'm mad that it wasn't that way when I was a wee little newb. I got my ass handed to me on mulitple occasions, then one day it's not cool to be snippy with anyone anymore. It's TK's fault. Posting IS fun, when TK isn't (I know we don't have confirmation on this) dictating what we can and can't talk about. If they're not doing that, then I really don't have any more complaints.

  • Can I just go out on a limb and guess that a bunch of newbs reported the FFF and got the thread removed and/or TK just started eating posts again?  Birdie and I didn't delete FFF, and I haven't received any word from a KG that things are out of hand on E.  I don't think anyone needs to change her behavior.  I try to tell people if I think there's an issue rather than delete outright.
  • Mica I think it was a TK glitch.  There was only 4 posts in the thread and nothing near scandalous.
