Re: I was gonna make a post with precisely the same title as Camilla's. So: Oh, come on. Legolas Send a noteboard - 13/05/2010 11:16:07 PM
If I said she was acting like that, sure. But I said "it can come across." All I meant was that posting more than one thread on the same topic in very rapid succession can annoy some people, in much the same way that Dragonsoul and traska's one-track style of posting annoys people. I think that was pretty clear from my post, but maybe it was worded ambiguously.

Two threads, with two days between them, and the later post was linking to an amusing article. Sure, Werthead posted another thread about the same thing at almost the same time two days ago, and there have been threads from others too, but that's hardly her fault.
Less ambiguously, then, I think the phrase "keep it in one thread" applies here. And yes, that should apply to US politics too, but as I very rarely create threads on US politics I don't exactly know why you're taking me to task on it.

"Keep it in one thread" is one thing, but that wasn't what Greg was complaining about, it wasn't what people were ganging up on her about, and it wasn't what your previous two posts were about.

And as for why I take you to task and not someone else: the usual reason, yours was the one reply too many that made it look like everybody ganging up on her for no good reason that I can see.

I agree. Legolas - 13/05/2010 07:11:40 PM 858 Views
What an even-handed, stereotype-free, and balanced piece of journalism. *NM* Tim - 13/05/2010 02:07:35 PM 435 Views
Yup. *NM* Camilla - 13/05/2010 02:09:35 PM 376 Views

I'm sorry I care about politics. Camilla - 13/05/2010 08:45:26 PM 884 Views
It's easy to complain. Actually doing something is rather more difficult. *NM* Ghavrel - 13/05/2010 10:17:47 PM 368 Views
What do you suggest I do, pray tell? *NM* Camilla - 13/05/2010 10:19:30 PM 368 Views

Pretty please with sugar on top Camilla - 13/05/2010 10:50:48 PM 851 Views

I don't mind transference of anger, but let's keep my quotes accurate at least. Ghavrel - 13/05/2010 11:15:37 PM 826 Views
See, this is what I find offensive Camilla - 13/05/2010 11:21:28 PM 820 Views
Fair enough. It was unfair of me to use "learn." Ghavrel - 13/05/2010 11:30:34 PM 789 Views

I certainly wouldn't go that far. Nowhere near. *NM* Rebekah - 13/05/2010 11:43:20 PM 427 Views
On the comparison or on you people's spelling? *NM* Ghavrel - 14/05/2010 12:13:42 AM 377 Views

I dunno. It looks to me that's what Balwer was saying with his flogged horse comment. Ghavrel - 13/05/2010 11:18:30 PM 740 Views
I'm sorry you care more about your own political agenda than about trying to see a party in power The Shrike - 13/05/2010 11:44:32 PM 767 Views
