  • I'm actually one of those crazy people who doesn't like chocolate either.

    Does he like fruit desserts?  If so, I'm always a big fan of crisps.

    [QUOTE]I thought that was interesting too, Meg that it was one person's job to filter newbs.  Maybe if it had been Mica or Birdie (i.e. mods) it wouldn't have seemed weird to me.  But what do I know 'bout that stuff?

    Uh, it's not the mods job to police SS.  Someone had to do it, otherwise we would have had a clusterfuck like with the food swap.  Should we vote on who is in charge of SS next year?</div>

    I've joked before that I would be happy with one of those deer salt licks for a present.

    Wasn't judging. I had just started lurking on E when the SS began and I remember wondering how much of a PITA it would be for that one person to try to figure out if that person was really a newb or if they just never posted at the same time, etc. 

    Seems like it can turn into a clusterfuuck either way.

    I missed the beginning of the food swap hot mess, but the SS clearly seemed to go smoother.
  • Merry Christmas Midge and LDY.

    Travel safely.

    I actually kind of agree with newbs not being invited to do SS. As much as I would've liked to have done it. I'd just be afriad I'd get someone like Kendall from PS board. I'm not 100% sure but my understanding was she was the one starting drama and stealing pictures? Maybe I'm wrong.

    I flame this. You don't have to be perfect because you're Mod. Loosen up.

  • I totally agree with newbs not doing it too, and I'm still pretty much a newb.

    No way to trust that this person isn't a crazy, also its harder to ensure that (most) people actually participate instead of just signing up and then not sending a gift.

    What's the point of flaming someone who was already flamed 10 pages ago?  There's no point in drudging up old dirt.

    Also, I'm already perfect, and that status was true even before I was mod.  :P

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: FFF : See, I think Eagles is cool as well.  I've never seen her be super inflammatory towards anyone.   So it was really out of left field and almost felt like <strong>she was doing to be all badass, I'm going to show the girls on SB!  </strong>Which is fine if she doesn't like certain posters.  Not everyone likes everyone.  But it seemed to kind of perpetuate a US vs THEM (E vs SB) vibe which I don't like.  Mainly b/c I like people on both boards and don't want to have to pick between one or the other.  And, I didn't get it was a LDY bait either, tbh.
    Posted by jcbsjr[/QUOTE]

    I don't think she was trying to be anything or prove anything. I think she was genuinly that pissed off because LDY is her friend. Some may think it came from left field, but I don't think she was trying to be anything she's not.
  • I was very new and just started lurking at the end of the Food Swap. I missed all the drama. I thought it was cool that E was doing a SS but I didn't turn in my name because I thought it would be really creepy of me. I agree that newbies shouldn't be included in it.

    [QUOTE]Meg, I was butt hurt for a day and then over it. I didn't look at a single SS AW though. I did the food swap and it worked fine. Since you don't get to pick the person you get I feel like chances of being stalked and then your stalker being randomly assigned to you and getting your address is slim enough that I wasn't worried. Your picture makes me wish I was good at skiing.

    I had a lot of fun with the food swap. I got sb from SB and she was awesome. It was great to get to know her. It made me want to hang out on SB more because those ladies are also awesome.

    Mica got me and did a fantastic job and made my terrible week <3

    Hey :) I've been lurking this whole time, just haven't had a chance to say anything in between feeling like poop and trying to get ready to leave town.

    Carry on with yo flames!
  • Okay, I thought of one, LVB, but it's vagueknotting.

    I flame anyone who has PMed me to delete or close a thread because they don't like the advice they are getting in it.  Sorry, kids.  Don't ask stupid questions if you don't want stupid answers.  If you are upset about all the arguing, stop arguing back, and the thread will die.  Why is this concept so hard?

    Also, I flame TK IT for still not figuring out a way to alert me that I have a PM without someone paging me or empiric checking.

    That's all.
  • Oh, not the fact that you didn't WANT to flame someone. But that you had to add in the caveat of 'if I wasn't feeling so PC". You've just been a bit extra uptight this week. Not banning people of course, but extra...modd-y.

  • Sorry you're not feeling well Birdie.  I just got Christmas from my parents.  It made me depressed.

    Agreed.  Like I said, I dont think her intentions were to be all OMG BOARDWAR I'M SO BADASS.  I took it as her defending her friend and just taking that defense too far.
  • Well, it has been extra insane this week.  And I haven't had enough wine lately.
  • I think Eagles overreacted to the recap thread. I also almost chocked on my lunch at Blue's "maybe if you got LDY's nuts out of your mouth" comment bc that shiit was hilarious. I do think eveyone's been kind of up LDY's ass lately, but that's how it goes. People fall in and out of popularity around here like whoa. I like LDY, don't get me wrong, but it's been a bit much lately.
