Ghost of ynotdu

whynotdo

Beeker i don't know if i should thank You or kill You for starting this thread.
The whole point i was trying to make was that the A&S was a little 'Sea of Tranquility' to Me on boards.

Quite true i was apprehensive when dlofnep started posting as i knew his tendency at times to use jackboots when a feather would do.
The alternative scenerio was for him to PM fifilure and ask that she PM Slade-x or Redshift to say She had boo bood and could they move it to the CT forum.[I double posted once and Slade-x fixed it for Me in a jiffy!}

I suspect that dlofnerp jumped on the report button twice once for the Moon-ey thread and then my objection to the back seat modding, although Redshift and Slade-x moderate the forum fine they are not usually that quick to clean up dubious posts.
a careful reading of the Moon-ey post reads to Me like it was taking the pis* out of the CT's about Apollo anyway.
also whoever deleted it did they know at the time if the professor was debunking the Moonlanding hoax theory or not?

I got a yellow card on the CT forum when in the face of overwhelming evidence one poster refused to see the facts and said He was going to bed,I wished him good night and said i hoped his underground bunker was comfortable and that He would not forget to put his tooth under the pillow for the fairys before writing his letter to Santa, I soon realised as soon as one moon hoax theory ended on the CT forum another started...........

Why i chose to unsubscribe was the haste My post "in defence of fifilure" was moved tothe re-cycle bin.

The sequence of events was i asked dlofnerp could he not have PM'd fifilure before PM'd her



dlofnerp i was prejudiced against You as You have been very cruel in posts in the past.However i hope the thank you's Beeker received on post #1 did not come across to You as being against You as i do not consider the thanks You received as being against Me.[quite frankly many of the thanked posts across the threads are very contradictory.]

@eiljah Ireland salutes Texas:) You get Your ass back here also!

@ Jake1 yes the broadcast forums are being back seat modded quite a lot also. Boards will have to give guidance to Mods what constitutes back seating and what does not.

@Nehaxak it was not much ado about nothing,it was about all of those things that Astronomers and Space enthusists spend long lonely hours observing what few are interested in and having a forum were they could tell the whole world about something that thrilled them.
One of My favourite posts was not so long ago when a poster who uploaded a photo he took of the Moon with a camphone got a bit of gentle ribbing and He said "It is My first one and i feel strangely proud of it". To Me that was as inspiring as Hubbles finest!
I did not want the smooth flowing joy to be trampled on by Cynacism and see it disintergrate into just another 'Squabbling' Forum!(there are plenty of them)

@Calibos Lol at Your frustration about 'Chinese Lanterns'
You have tried being nice and being nasty to no avail.
Have You any hair left? My solution would be to close A&S on saturday nights after pub closing time.;)

@Backboiler,I will use ITALICS in future to emphasise a point.
Which of the John Nash's am i

John Nash may refer to:

• John Forbes Nash, Jr. (born 1928), American mathematician, 1994 Nobel Economics laureate, subject of the book and film titled A Beautiful Mind
• John Nash (architect) (1752–1835), Anglo-Welsh architect

• John Nash (cricket administrator) (1906–1977), English Secretary of Yorkshire County Cricket Club (1931–1971)
• John Nash (footballer), English soccer player
• John Francis Nash (1908–2004), American railroad executive
• John J. Nash (died 1989), Irish Fianna Fáil politician
• Johnny Nash (b. 1940) African-American pop singer-songwriter
• John Nash Round, English architect active in the mid-19th-century Kent, England.

I am afraid to get My message You will have to read the Hitchikers guide to the Galaxy like everybody else!Squeek squeek.

@Slade-x i am well aware of the reasons why Moon hoax theorys are not allowed here having over the last twelve months read ALL:P the archives since this forum was established seven years ago(belated congratulations on being made a Mod in 2005!:P]

Do i get the fatted calf or the boot now?:p

You suspect wrongly. I didn't report that post. The moderators here can verify that. You went off on a tangent for no reason when the moderator himself said he would have replied in a similar manner to my post. The only reason I posted in this thread was to clarify what happened.

The PM wasn't necessary. I sent it to her out of courtesy, and not because you asked me to.

whynotdo wrote: »

fifilure Your public acceptance of dlofnerps PM's is very diffrient to what You had to say about him in a PM to Me is'nt it?[makes note to self,never use Chivlery again]

I don't think you should be discussing the contents of private messages on public forums. If she said anything negative about me - that's fine. My post was a bit rude, and she's entitled to be a little upset about it.

I'm not bothered. If you have an issue with my manner of posting, just place me on ignore. That's what the function is there for, instead of creating off-topic threads trying to get attention. I'll do the same, as I have no desire to discuss anything further with you. Let's drop it here. I have been more than courteous with my responses and that's as far as my patience goes with you.

Beeker You started this thread as such You can ask it to be closed and let the attn seeking be stopped,most of all the attn seeking is done by people who report posts.
P.S read the in defence of fifilure post and check the timings again.

Oh and by the way i have been playing catch-up too.some great reading and posts which i wouldl ove to thank but wont be able to until i have posted 25 times.

riptide

Nehaxak

That's just a tirade of a rant against dlofnep who has been more than courteous in responses, very unfair imo. If you can't debate with the guy in a civilised manner or can't discuss with him outside of other forums you might disagree with his opinions in, then just don't bother and do as he says and place him on ignore. What you've done here with your opportunity to respond, in a thread created to ask for you to come back, is just childish.

I still stand over it being much ado about nothing, at least to everyone else.

fifilarue

whynotdo-now I am mad. Please don't try and use me to get at someone, it's not really on. I am going to forward the pm you are referring to to dlofnep, just to show that I did not say anything about him behind his back. It's not fair of you to behave like this.

Stargate!Ok You pushed Me over the edge to return,part of the deal is you must do so also.!
I have to cut this short now but Letter to follow soon.
I am overwhelmed by PM's i have only gained access to and will have more to say ASAP about this thread and some offshoots of it when i have time,so Slade-x don't kill the fatted calf for the two Prodigals just Yet!

:)Good Man!! Great to see you back at last:) I hope you can sort out the problems with the other posters and get back to your normal humour.

:D:D

That says it well riptide.
I am afraid i done the very thing i feared i would do,log on drunk and 'lose it'

dlofnerp i offer You an unreserved apology which i sincerely hope You will accept.

fifilure i also offer You a sincere apology for making reference to a PM which i hope You will accept.

My flawed logic was in order for Me to "get the feeling back" i needed to offload the remnants of ill feeling that were left from posts from the past.

fifilure You always made a poster here feel like they were not posting to themselves by a little word of encouragement or a simple thank You.I love you for that:)

dlofnep i dont think our politics will ever coincide but i hope you will continue to post pictures when You can.
Ah damn it,give Me a kiss quick while nobody is looking:D
