I would like to apply for to be on your bullet in thing. I have the required "Online Presents" for my name is "not..." and I come from TMO. My board is dying *make tear, tiny cry* I have not long to live there and everyone hates me. LOL. Not really, just most people.
I have much to bring to your community, for example I am proficient in the following disciplines:
1. Making pictures using words. Check this - .·:*¨¨*:··:*¨¨*:·.·:*¨¨*:·.·:*¨¨*:·..·:*¨¨*:·:**
2. Interesting general knowledge. Such as - Labradors can be black or golden.
3. UBB editing - example [i][/i]
quote:
4. Catchphrases eg: "Alright?", ":cake:" and ":thumbsup:"
Also I have 2900 posts on TMO and every one is a bobby-dazzler. except for last friday's but that was because I had drunk too much caffeine and hadn't had sex with my wife since March.
Anyhow if you could approve me and not spend like ages that would be cool.
I look forward to your response
Cheers not...

You have made a request to join Barbelith. Due to some persistent troll problems we have had in the past, we have a brief checking process in place. In short, we like to make sure that you have some kind of traceable web presence, so that we can have some assurance about your identity. A work email, a website or something like that is all we need. I'm sorry for this hoop jumping we are asking you to go through, but it seems to be a necessary part of keeping Barbelith running effectively.
So if you could reply to me, pointing me to a website, blog or similar, I would be very grateful and your application will proceed as quickly as I can make it.

Come on TMO, you know we had an open relationship from the start. You know you're my main man babes. The others don't mean a thing to me you know. I mean it's just text. What you an' me have is a long-term relationship. We've grown together. I mean, 5 years... and to think you took my virginity. I never knew how good text could be until I met you babes. Once I had a taste of it I had to have more.
We've had our ups and downs, sure, every relationship does. But we've got through them haven't we? We always get back together in the end. You know I can't resist you with those puppy dog eyes babes. Don't make those eyes at me babe. C'mon. Lets have a cuddle eh...yeh. c'mon, It's alright it's alright, everythings alright right? yeh.

quote:Originally posted by Louche: I am trying to imagine what a board war with Barbelith would actually look like.
I don't think get the impression that people on Barbelith would really embrace a board war. I mean - I know it's bad form in that situation to look as though you're enjoying yourself, and that generally the preferred stance is of over stated seriousness (eg, "I for think ChocolateAIDS owes the entire board an apology for her grotesquely inaccurate portrayal of TMO") and a pinched-brow concern that this isn't doing anyone any good, but I think Barbelith posters would genuinely feel that way. It would only be a couple of posts before a bunch of people went "Look this isn't doing any of us any good. The internet's big enough for both boards, this kind of petty rivalry demeans everyone". And then the whole thing would collapse and you'd just be left thinking "fuck I suppose I've got to get on with my work now". It just wouldn't take off. Stupid po-faced Barbelith!
Posted by jonesy999 (Member # 5) on :
quote:
An internet bulletin board moderator from cyberspace has been forced to take on an assumed identity and relocate to another country through a police-run protection programme originally designed to help witnesses in mortal danger.
It was an agonizing decision that the woman, whose age, location, profession, surname, colour, creed, height, weight, eye-colour and shoe size have not been ascertained, faced when weighing up whether to continue in her perilous position as the moderator of discussion chat board *Barbelith.
Earlier this week, internet intellectual and long time Barbelith member, Dodona, announced that a woman has been forced to leave the community in mortal fear for her life.
The top tier moderators of the heavyweight discussion zone have been meeting this week to address the situation, which arose when a member of a duller online community revealed sensitive personal information online (in the public domain, for anyone to look at, unprotected) about the moderator, information which, in the wrong hands, could lead to some people knowing her real Christian name.
"The implications of this security breach are apparent to even the most limited thinkers," explained respected Barbelith 'poster' Ab ovo, with a serious face. "Anyone with access to the internet could learn that there is a moderator at the 'Lith and that she is called Clare. Clare had no choice but to go into hiding. She might have two children and a husband for all this dolt knew. I'm not saying she has, I'm too clever to let something like that slip out, but, you know, what if she did? How many lives has this idiot ruined with his carelessness? He has raped her persona dry and humped her name from the face of the globe. Also, she will have to get her passport changed and a standard 10 year adult passport now costs 51 pounds!"
Clare, yesterday, possibly with a child whose life might also have been ruined by the violation of confidentiality

The point I was trying to make was that in my experience people tend to assume that message boards have a kind of monolithic quality - I do it myself - "they're all humourless stuck-up bastards", "they're all shit-flinging simpletons", etc. Whereas in reality while boards do tend to have a 'character', they also tend to have more divisions and factions and complicated diversions of opinion than might always be immediatedly obvious.
Apart from anything else I was trying to reassure not.../Johnny that he hadn't pissed off the entire board before even joining...

You're right. How are they so reasonable? What happened to the days when the internet was full of screamingly mad bazookas who just fought about everything? The toddler days, when toys were lobbed out of virtual prams at the least provocation. The teenage years when there were full-on hormone fuelled rucks, bloody noses and bitching to make your eyes water.
The internet's grown up, it's mellowed, it's come over all reasonable. Next thing you know it'll be gardening instead of the pub and slippers and arthritis cures. Poor internet.

You shouldn't do. He's a right bastard. You're allowed to have a go at me here. It's allowed. See it's my belief that Barbelith is pretty much the same as any board. It does cut out the chances of people using weak anonymous flaming, but then we only get that very occasionally, with the flamer getting bored really rather quickly and things going back to normal. We even have a pet troll who visits us from time to time. Sometimes I actually cringe reading threads on Barbelith at suggestions that people make. It does read as pompous for the most part. Shjust a board. I guess maybe TMO hasn't as many fights these days because there is less peer pressure to 'get it right' in your posts.

Wow man it's like, all the music we listened to is unfashionable now. We can totally schmooze with the music of yesterdecade.
For reading in a 12th century ruin you get Banquet points to be redeemed at one of those middle age banquets.
Actually that reminds me of the time I signed up for a medieval banquet that was part of work and it was mighty expensive, so I staaa-arved myself all day "Wanna Murry Mint Mike?" "No thanks don't want to spoil my banquet 'wink' Ho Ho HO'" and the journey took forever. My stomach was all shouting gggrowl and making noises like it was turning in on itself. 'When do we get to eat?' Not yet good buddy cos we're having to dress up appropriately. So we sit down and they give us mead. Which of course, is righteous. So I get a bowl of soup. Cool, a bowl of soup with a wooden spoon. Authentic. Still, they could have given me a velcro spoon and I stil would have drank every drop cos my belly is trying to climb the table. We play some kind of quiz and everyone is given a chicken leg. Mmmm, a chicken leg. There's more meat in the bone! No wait. It's done. God man when is the banquet gonna start. Another quiz and a game. Man this food is taking ages to prepare. I'm given a rib. The mead is flowing though so that helps me forget about the banquet not arriving yet. So my belly is rumbling but everyone is drunk and having a laugh and playing games. Whoops, some guy spilt beer on the lovely ladies mandalin. She isn't impressed. Night ends early. Everyone on bus. Where the fucks this banquet? That was it. A four course meal apparently. 'But I only had three' I whine. 'Don't sweat it' slurs my colleague, 'the pudding was an apple'

I don't think it's entirely legal to record a stream from their myspace and broadcast it without their permission.
But the point is, that you are sort of saying, 'I'm going to play your song on my podcast' and they go 'excellent, here is the mp3 and I'll listen to your podcast' which is so much more exciting than simply spinning an artists tune.

I am currently gagging for a tall, icy glass of Magners. Which I shall be consuming very shortly...
My life has taken a turn for the better following my local pub's decision to start selling Magners. Everybody should drink Magners.

Gaymers is good. Magners is a different class altogether though. I think most places have started selling Magners now, so avoid any future Gaymer-related blushes by asking for Magners.

Re: Magners / Gaymers, Zygote, I have had the Magners many times but I'm ever curious. Gaymers is newer and has a funnier name therefore I want to try it. It has the word Gay in it, and what is funnier than that?!

Man Alive
I just had one of the tensest moments of my professional life.
About an hour ago, I went for a slash, and there was this beardy australian fella in the toilet. Rather than observing the completely sane and understandable rule that in this situation micturation must take place in silence, he strikes up a conversation: "what are you doing at the weekend" etc.
Then, five minutes ago, I went for another piss - more to kill time than anything - and the same guy was in there! Horrible. So I made a joke like "O no our piss cycles have co-incided! Haha", but he didn't laugh, he just looked up from his urinal with these staring eyes.
Silently, I cursed to myself, and then got on with it. More questions: stuff like "what's your name?" and "where do you live?" I duly anwser them, starting to shake with fear a little bit. Then I head to the basins to scrub up and he says something like "We'll have to meet up sometime and have a chat somewhere other than in the pisser." Haha. Yeah. Not bloody likely you fucking freak.
What the hell is wrong with people? I don't care how lonely he is having come over from Australia or whatever, but you don't make friends by talking to people in the office toilet. Jesus Christ! I'm never going to be able to take a piss in this place again.

Hangover news: On Saturday night three of us shared three bottles of wine. This would usually just mean moderate pissed-ness, but the last mouthful of white wine, which I don't really like anyway, rendered me utterly shitfaced - staggering around, double vision, etc. Thus yesterday I had the most horrendous hangover, meaning I couldn't go to homebase and buy plants. I had to stay in bed until 3. Sweating.
Seville was ace though. And proper hot.

I managed to get a sort of hangover from Alcohol free Becks on saturday, which was interesting.

I think I might be allergic to beer. Posted by Dr. Benway (Member # 20) on :
In terms of hangovers, I think I've taken it to the next level now. After two fairly large sessions on friday and saturday, I attempted to sleep rough on saturday night, but was picked up by a friend as I wandered about in a dream. On sunday I walked in the same daze from old street to finsbury park, and when I got there, I just walked around the park, over and over again. Colours looked all bleached out, and if I stopped moving then the world started to bend and I felt like I was sinking into the floor. I had loads of voices and conversations in my head that were driving round the bend, so I just had to keep on walking to prevent this horrible sickening feeling of madness. And I still feel tripped out today, I can't eat, and my limbs feel disconnected from my body, and I can barely speak.
And somewhere over the course of the weekend I was dumped. I think. Or something like that. Whatever happened, I remember saying that 'this is it, it's over'. But I was so drunk. But I haven't heard from her since.
I'm going to have to maybe think about giving up alcohol or something.

well I don't know what's going on at this stage, partly because I don't feel like I'm entirely switched into things at the moment. Everything's got a slightly hallucinatory quality to it. My only real memories from the evening are a friend telling me that I'm an alcoholic, and then sleeping on the pavement near a station.
I'm hoping that all of this will somehow make itself right, but at the moment I don't feel like I'm in a position to take any action. It's all pretty shameful really.

Ecstacy and alcohol aren't an ideal combination. A few years ago, following a 13 hour wine drinking session at Maine Road, I went to a local nightclub and idiotically took a pill. An hour later, I was dragged off the dancefloor by my ex-girlfriend as I was apparently getting undressed after informing onlookers that I was 'going for a swim'. I had even placed my trainers next to the bar in preparation for the swim. Moments later I had a 60 year old hippy in a headlock and was patting him on the cheeks, telling everyone how 'cute' he was, as he continued spinning his glow sticks in the air.

I was in London last night, enjoying a drink and a catch-up with Stealgate who is currently, I'm sure you'll all be pleased to hear, training to be a psychologist. Anyway, we were in some bar in Convent Garden, perched up on stools in the window, watching the honeyed midriffs of moneyed youth drifting by through the pleasant dusk when Stealgate did a massive, almost comedy, double-take. I looked to where he was pointing and realised that the guy walking down the street in a state of some disarray was none other than Benway.
He was wearing a backpack and carrying a lump of cardboard - presumably for use as bedding - under one arm. In his other hand he was toting a can of Kestrel Super Strength (World Cup edition, featuring a cartoon Kestrel in George Cross facepaint vomiting into a coolbox). He looked in pretty bad shape to be honest and I was on the verge of calling him into the bar - Stealgate told me not to bother, though, as he thought it highly unlikely that we'd be able to get poor Benway past the doormen.
