There has been a disturbing trend on the forums...can't say when it started...but it's grown much worse of late.

Call it what you will...meanness, snarkiness, honesty ;) ... but posts, and moreso the responses to them, have become less than kind to the point where it's almost the rule.

I wouldn't attempt to tell anyone what to say, or how to think...mind control isn't my thing.

Just a thought...

Kindness goes a long way. If you don't wish to be kind, then please make an attempt to be respectful of others. I refuse to believe that there is EVER an excuse for being rude simply because you can.


That being said...*whacks everyone with a shrimp*

I've noticed this IG too. Seems everyone is so serious and if you do anything in jest they bugger you up. Hell, they'll bugger you up just to show you how big their wand is.

*applauds RT ('cause I was thinking the same thing) and petrifies the shrimp before it's used on people*

Wouldn't the shrimp still be able to move? I mean it's just turned to stone, Tonic could still hit people with stoned shrimp....

So in reality, you just made her hit people harder?

Unless that's what you ment in the first place, then I just read it wrong and need to go lay down.

((Nope, meant to make her hit people harder, actually....))

Though it'd be amusing to hear the shrimp talk about all the pretty colours and not feeling any pain and about government conspiracies while they're being used as beat-sticks.

Anyone got a way to make shrimp talk?

That's a amusing thought....

But what would shrimp have to say about those topics? I mean I can't think about anything shrimp would say about government conspiracies....

Maybe fishermen conspiracies?

The shrimps are the masterminds behind the dolphin's plans (which are really the shrimp's) to take over the world.. Just you wait, one day we'll have a shrimp as President for the US.

Yeah. People take everything way too seriously these days. You gotta relax, people. And you know who you are.

(P.S. Ahh! Run from the shrimp invasion! Ahh! Oh no! Goodbye, cruel world...)

If you want to talk about a shrimp invasion then start a thread instead of spamming the topic of someone who's got a good point

That made me laugh.

Awesome.

Yes, no more sensless crap about shrimp.

That said, I plan to stop my recent [censored] streak.

P.S. Mistress, making a post saying "OMG I LAUGH VERY FUNNY HAHAHHAHA," is also spamming.

Or...she could just be taking part in a conversation, and your reply could be an example of the behavior that this thread is about....

Worth thinkin' about, hrm?

Peace, love, and taxes.

Ya know. Though I don't do it often. I will defend myself for the sake of the ignorant little boy who wished to call my post spam.

I made the post I made on the basis of Adam being Ironic.

For Adam "Spams" quite a bit in some peoples eyes, though I like most of his posts, some would call them "spam"

He said "instead of spamming the thread" - which he was kinda doing, and added to the off-topicness of it.

He also made comment on the fact that Tonic has a good point.

And wether Tonic was referring to Chance/Adam's fight or not it was ironic that Adam would stick up for Tonic when there was a good chance Tonic was referring to him.

So I made a post saying I laughed, to point out that Adam wasn't being rude, it was funny.

P.S. Blubie, I wouldn't plan on stopping that streak very soon, as you obviously lack the capability to do so.
