Firstly... Congrats to alex on EGSC #10, and to all else who've done something nifty that they're proud of. :::salutes:::

Well you assumed it so be honest. I cant imagine why youve seen my name alot in here during the last few weeks because of the simpe fact that i dont have time to post alot anymore at all, anywere.
Assumed you spammed? No. Again, I didn't call ANY of you guys spammers. I said you posted too much. There's a massive difference. For instance, even though Dobio might have called PureLionHeart a spammer back during the days of tons of posting in his top posters topic, I never thought of Pure as a spammer. I just thought he posted way too much and too often. You, Pure, Bonus... and yep, even joobie most of the time... have good things to say and I enjoy reading your posts. They're not spam because they're not pointless...
but if I see 100 posts in a row from a small group of people, I won't hesitate to complain, especially while catching up on, again, 30+ pages of this topic. O_o
Anyway, you were grouped in with those guys in my mind. So if I'm guilty of anything, it's of thinking you'd posted more in here than you actually did. Again, I was reading 38 pages in maybe 10 hours, so everything was condensed and rushed together. If you posted only once per page (that's 1 out of every 30 posts, and yes, I know you probably didn't even post that much), to me I just remember seeing 38 posts from you... see what I mean?
Well i cant speak for j00bie or b0nus but i sure as hell took it as an insult, and im sure a few other people here thought of it as that aswell. Spamming is an indictment of shame,
Again, please read the above big-paragraph. I don't think of you guys as spammers, I didn't say you "spammed," I was complaining about post QUANTITY, not post quality. The quality is fine, to me. It's the amount that makes my brain hurt when I try to catch up in here, that's all.
I can understand that, as i said above i get irritated just by reading 4 pages worth of catch up, never mind 30 odds. But you shoudnt be angry at all, sure you have other commitments, but why do you feel compelled to read everything and respond to every single post aimed at you ? Its not needed, and it puts you under unneccesary pressure. If people want specific answers, they know what the Email Author button is for.
Because the only reason I bother to catch up in here at all, for the most part, is to make sure I didn't leave anyone hanging. I want to get to the posts that people directed at me. But I don't actually reply to every little bit. Sometimes I snip parts of convos I was having that have reached a dead end. And of course, I also reply to other things that sprouted up while I was away that have little to nothing to do with me, as well. But... eh.
i dont have time, like im sure as hell you dont either. When visiting the club becomes a chore rather than being fun, seeing people level up gaining more B/S's and bigger more VP then in my opinion its not worth it.
Which is why I tend to enjoy visiting all the other topics in this forum more than this one, which... is kinda sad. But perhaps I can either stay more current, learn to skim faster, or just stop worrying about catching up. We'll see.
Ok thanks for the apology, and i do understand what Et al means, its just, and im not sure if you meant it at all, that you put my name there instead of someone elses then the "Et al". It just, to me implied anyway that i was spamming. Yes and instead of hurting peoples feelings anyway, maybe im just too damn insecure, and the need to feel accepted in taking over me, meh. Fuck it.
By et al, I meant that I could have continued to list just about every other regular in here who posted in those 38 pages, that's all. Complain complain complain, that's all I was doing. Nothing was meant to be taken personally, I was just making a plea for topic-slowdown. #;-}> Like James says, I say that all the time, so everyone's learned to just ignore it. I guess you hadn't yet. ;_;

Ha, and I thought you were pissed at me too geefox. I didn't really take it hard, but I was kinda sad too. I even posted about it after you vented, but you, nor anyone responded. That made me a sad panda. Oh well, at least I know what you were talking about. Thanks for explaining it.
Awwww... poor lil' Arceval. ;_; I'm sorry I hurt your feelings, too.
:::makes note to self... "be careful of RC's and SCD's feelings... but feel free to continue making jokes/complaints about BonusStage and joobie, as they have thick skins and/or are masochists who just enjoy the hell out of any attention I give them, negative OR positive"::: I'm beginning to suspect the latter is more true than the former, BTW.
EDN! #;-}>

Dammit, I could be level 13 by now if I had deposited every day!

Says a level 10 person.
I could be level 29 (no lie) by now if I had deposited every day (coming from a level 17 person... now THAT says something!). #;-}>

Intriguing idea.....perhaps I could make a program that has the following features:
LOL! So a post of mine was the inspiration for the NG post editor program that you made and I don't understand how to effectively use? #;-}>
Anywho, sorry for never getting back to you (in time, at least) regarding that. I think that what I would have recommended then is what I'll recommend now, having already tried the program: how about a button that gives you the current bytecount, eh? Or even a realtime bytecount display on the toolbar or something, if that's possible.

Well, these two aren't here, but I figured that it was a good time to post it.
Congrats you two ^_^
