Title: New Section
Post by: Legion on July 12, 2005, 04:55:01 PM
I was thinking....which has caused my head to start hurting....that there should be a place to post jokes and or riddles.  For riddles each one should have its own thread in order to keep the questions and answers organized.  Just a though.

we had a jokes thread for a bit. But it wasn't attended often enough.

ya that stuff pretty much belongs in the "rants" section, it would be nice to have a board(section) for everything that people want but that would lead to a huge cluttering of the forum.

Also: I think a thread like that would really annoy me.  And if this site isn't here to make me happy, why is it here?

Actually, since I came along, you know that this site has evolved into personally catering to my needs.

What did you ever do without me?  ;) ::)

Insult Spriggan for his spelling, mostly.

Legion, you're welcome to start up a thread topic for jokes/riddles. (I don't know if I would be much good at contributing to it, but I'd certainly read it.) Just so you know that you are welcome to start a topic, like you did here. I was too afraid to start my own topic for a long time (since the people of TWG are notorious for slapping down newbies), but I did eventually.

And, from someone who avoided the slap-down, I'll give you a couple hints: just contribute intelligently to discussions and not insult people for insultings sake, and you'll do well. That's what I tried to do. And you seem to be doing that too, so bravo. (Course, the real reason they were nice to me is probably because I am EUOL's girlfriend, and he'd eat their brains if they got out of hand. ) :D

Did you ever think that maybe you were catering your needs to what we provide?

No. That would be far too unselfish to fit into my psyche.  ;D

Chimera thanks for the advise....I willl have to read some rules about posts before I start a  post like that......most jokes can step on peoples toes, and that would not be good to do yet.  And about the intelligent post that will be hard but I will try.

Thanks agian

You're always free to start a new thread, just make sure they're in the appropriate place, as you said reading the FAQ is a good idea.  As for Jokes "stepping on people's toes" just make sure they're PG-13 with no swearing and you shouldn't run into problems with the admins.
