We could enable them anyway, so that you can all complain about it for a while.

Yes. Let's get the avatar and signature function going so Toytown can look like German forums where you have to plough through pages and pages of fucking annoying banners, avatars, signatures and the like before you actually find what someone has written

i'd vote for a temporary activation of avatars so i can have a good old whinge - how about doing it on Friday? there's never much action on a Friday, it'd be quite good to have a whinge thread for a day

edit - oops, OG was agreeing with Crawlie. oh well. soz.

I felt bad for complaining ever since Keydeck got all snappish this morning. It's the first time I've been snapped at by Keydeck.

I spent the rest of the morning crying.

Isn't misquoting considered libel from a legal standpoint?
No idea if it applies to web forums though.

it's satire, hon. He's making a point. No court will call that misquoting, as it's so obvious.

QUOTE (Gen @ Apr 26 2006, 2:10 pm)

Actually, his initial point was much sharper, meaning when he quoted the posts accurately; by editing the post and misquoting (which I still object to) he ruined the oh-so-subtle satire in more ways than one.

Well fuck me sideways, if that was offensive to you I reckon I need to tread very carefully. You ran to mommy for that

I changed the text because:
- Lots of quoted text in a post looks quite messy, so it seemed an appropriate abbreviation
- You were all whinging
- I thought it looked amusing
Please accept my humble apologies and solemn assurance that I shall never again misquote you.

I think you need to chill out a little. Let things slide a bit more. Far to many negative ways coming from your direction... and you know that's just gonna bring down the general mood of the board. Give peace a chance... yeah...!
