I tell you something, one thing most people learn about me is that I dont take any shit, I'll tell you straight what I think of you.

And in this case, I have confirmed you must be below 15...

This is the last post I'm going to make on these forums until the maturity level rises, and that'll no doubt stand for the other members of TeamFM
I usually try to stay out of this type of BS (unless it's the nits :wink: ), but, are you serious??? ImageImageImage

Umm.. as usual I'm a bit late and am only just catching up.


Image , Image is this all about ?.

The first two links in the first post work but the third doesn't.

Anybody tell me what was so bad in the third to warrant even a visit?

I take it , it must have been very very bad as I could see nothing at all in the first two links (was even appreciation for trodas's sympathy) to even justify the effort of registering here to ... dribble.

Heads up anyone.. ?

Thanks for the prompt reply dasman,

mmm... I've had a 13+ hour day, fair mileage and been out in the sun a lot with perhaps not enough fluids and have not eaten yet ( :shock: ...shoots off to put oven on so as not to be shot on GF's return with takeaway, Thanks boys :wink: ) , so perhaps my brain isn't working right but ...

I fail to see what was to complain about... or am I being really thick?

I don't think you're being really thick.

Just a little slow ;).

To be fair (having been only a folder for a few days, this puts me in a good position) as a "clean" sheet in this regard, I see where this is all coming from.

Part of the blame goes to Trodas + unregisted - not a lot, but some, IMHO. What they did, they did with GOOD intentions (is my understanding). As is so nicely said, that's what the road to hell is paved with.

Trodas + unregistered just wanted to eek out more foldage out of TeamFM.

TeamFM - not familiar with either of our two fellow folders, proved to be somewhat unfortunately sensitive to the taunts, taking them somewhat NOT in the spirit intended.

I.e. - marking them as "childish" rather than semi-friendly "taunts".

It's a misunderstanding. The WWW - once again - serving as misunderstanding generator. Let's face it - raw text on a screen can do that to you pretty easy.

Right? :).

Hope I am at least somewhat right ... :).

I read the threads. There is nothing offensive I could read there.

Damn. Good thing I wasted my time.

shathal, you have hit the screw on the head, gone directly to the lungs of the matter, hit an absolute bulls-ear. You sir, are a rocket surgeon of understanding.

Seriously, a truly insightful and accurate discription of this little tempest in a tea-cup.

Thank you, Dave, easy there :).

It's just a half-educated guess. Well - sorta half-educated, as I've seen it happen (and done it - unwittingly - I admit myself) so often (and usually unintentionally), that it was worth a shot.

WWW-text should come with "to be taken in THIS way..." type underlining - emoticons just don't cut it. Smell doesn't work. Hmmm - we need some kind of new thing ...

... some kind of emoti-font? :).

Anyway - I disgress... :)

P.S.:
Bulls-*EAR* ...?

I thought you usually aim for the eye ...? :).

Maybe something to do with making things quiet ...? :D

Clearly trodas was just getting in some practice for Euro 2004. (For those in North America, this is a "real" football tournament.) But trodas, I'm not sure the Czechs will get past the Dutch and Germans. [/troll mode off]

sonofdbn - hehe :P Im not a fan of footbal either :wink: :P
Hell, what it this game all about anyway? From my point of view, there are twenty crazy dudes, running after someting small, white and rolling all over the big green place with ocassional stops into some grids on one or another side :roll:
The thing I did not get is, why each time the little white thing end into either one of the grids, mostly abour half of the folks, precisely watching the little rolling thing, start making so much noise :lol: :roll:
...can anyone tell me, what the hell this is all about? :lol: :twisted:

And any suggesting to quiet them down? I mean silence them, like ductape them or something put into their mounths? :roll: I mean they mostly eating or drinking during the watching, however for some odd reason, this did not preventing them from making such horrible noise! :shock:

PS: Czech dudes are good at hockey only :wink: ...any only when they have the right team and a little bit of luck too :? :wink:

If you do pass wind in their general direction and it creates an intense mist of folding, post your empirical data here. :shock:

So, You've come for argument, then?

Instead, hold your head and go "Waaahhh!" (Not "whoa!") Whilst I hit you in the head with a rubber slab.

We are the Team who says "No!".

Go rob from the poor and give to the rich.

I reckon jbyram2a should join us, after all him spends a lot of time here... and enjoys himself here... :roll:

Mind you a name like jbyram2a could well be a KWSN name... :shock:

No.. that'd never work... you would be able to joke and have fun and be silly,... you'd never 'like' that... much better off where you are... :wink:


And anyway !!!... When did we become neutral territory..? I thought that was Switzerland's job :)

Your right... I won't spammify ya'lls board with any more KWSN taunts, except to say that Sir Fart hasn't come to visit us yet. Most likely since they are no longer gaining on us.

"Come back here, I'll bite your legs off" says Sir Fart.

By GAWD I'm workin' myself up to a taunting frenzy over here :x !!!

We're gonna aggravate ourselves even further before we perform a visitation on them guys by running a copy of the PCMark benchmarking proggie. That piece of programming crap is enough to make Mother Theresa rise up from the grave and get angry :twisted: !

Just popped over there... Well, what can I say?....

Apart from the obvious Nits Who say... No!!! and Mr. Jamboree (Nee jbyram2),... Dasman had the funniest, wittiest, most amusing and indeed clever post there.


With the exception of the afore mentioned, Satirical eloquence presumably is left at the door next to the Umberella's. (Though josh6942's post at least deserves a mention)

Hardly worth the walk so far... are you the only one with any oomph jbyram2a?

But other than that...the Knights are saying nil instead of Ni!

Maybe I am trying too hard... trolling mighty trolls...taunting mighty taunts... trying to gather as much wind as You-Know Who. I was just hoping for a better trout-slapping match than we had with you guys.

Maybe I'll set up a pity-box to fold in their name....maybe.
