Signing off......

[Munjibunga]

First up was Aunt Polly.

"Tom was a huge pain in my ass, and, I think, the boy was a complete idiot. I can't tell you how relieved I am that he is out of my hair for good."

A round of applause burst out in the church.

"That boy always creeped me out," said Becky Thatcher, "I think he had a (shudder) THING for me! One time he gave me some kind of brass knob thingy, and it was all I could do not to knock him unconscious with it. Thank God he's finally dead!"

This time, the round of applause was deafening, almost knocking young Tom from his perch in the gallery.

"Wow, they sure don't think mucha you!" whispered Huck, drooling in Tom's ear just a little.

Tom punched him in the nads, and Huck let out a tiny grunt.

Now THAT is funny. LOL.

Lol, I recall each infraction I've received, didn't matter if I agreed with em or not, the rules are the rules.
Each person I've had a negative/questionable engagement with later turned out to be pretty decent guys who went on to actually be of great help/assistance on future bass related things I needed advice on. Well, minus one, but I'm sure even he doubles as a decent guy in his off time.

All of this emotional stuff is really quite pointless, just brush it off, carry on, & allow maturity to prevail. In the end it usually does.
Why quit a great resource like this?
It's just a forum! Not everyone is gonna be your buddy, and not everything you say is always going to come off as innocent sarcasm, if you're being an ass, even sarcastically you run the risk of being reprimanded. Seems pretty simple.
Stop being so emotional!

Cut me some slack, K?

This clown really needs to come back. The thread is starting to wind down in it's excellentness.

I think we should bombard his inbox with pleading PM's.

When you get an infraction, does it come via PM?

No...Men in black suits show up at your house at around midnight to inform you. .

You get taken to a secret base on the moon, where you are forced to play Mustang Sally.

But at least they let you ride in the space elevator.

I may be wrong, but an infraction is what you do (i.e break the rules), not the slap on the wrist you get.

I got on once. I was in a cast for a month.

The TB moderators are hardcore ... be glad it was just a wrist and not your kneecaps.

Severed horse head left in my bed, personally.

I get nauseated just thinking about this.

I feel fortunate that I've never received any point on my TB license.

Well, he was back here yesterday morning. So much for "signing off".

If that's true I have an idea. Let's put a link to every post he makes in this thread!

I checked his profile. It would appear as though he is merely lurking. Half-assed ragequit. If yer gonna ragequit, do it whole-assed. Anything worth doing is worth doing right.

Or, he could just lurk smarter. You don't need a profile to view the threads on TB...

I give him two months max before he's back. I bet he'll even make a "Signing back on..." thread about how he's come to terms with his mistakes and the forum rules.

 

[Gopherbassist]

I have to say I am outraged, OUTRAGED at your unfair treatment here on talkbass.com. In protest, I am going to glue an Ocelot to my knee, and walk six miles uphill, in the snow, and sing songs from the Iapotaliton Revolution, in their original tongue.

After that, I might have a bath, and eat something. While I'm in town, I may look for some type of non-toxic solvent that will benefit both myself and the Ocelot. And then I'll see what kind of TV he likes.

It's only fair.

Where do you come up with this stuff? I'm always surprised by your sarcastic posts

I could blame the fact that I was once a major druggy, but to be honest, I was totally weird long before that, even as a kid. I read really weird authors, and I like free-flow writing the best. I feel sarcasm on it's own is no good. I try to infuse it with surrealism, so that people can understand my good intentions.

I actually like Two-Fingers, as posters to forums go, and was just giving him crap in the same spirit he assured us he was giving it to others when he was "unjustly" reprimanded.

If anything I write ever entertains you, than I couldn't be happier. I'm not actually aware of any other use I have in this world.

 

[mellowinman]

I'm a Mark Twain fan. That was good.

Thanks! I don't understand anyone who isn't a Mark Twain fan. The man was one of the greatest writers who ever lived.

You mean he's still signing off?

We're only on Hiss-Con Two.

Shizz about to get real.

I am. It's to be naked with your bass in the forest, thus bonding with gods creatures.
