Annoying PMs

Heres my latest PM:
Quote:
can you pls send me an email on how to do it step by step if you don't mind i'm quite new with this so if you could help me i would appreciate it a lot
Sometimes I just ignore them and hope they go away.

Its just to easy to reply to think of a good reply to a nice open-ended question like this.... Start with a large caliber handgun and a jug of Jim Beam.... Turn on your computer and step away from it...

fun stuff,
Frank

You know, the thing that bothers me the most about something like this is that they obviously don't get the whole point of Afterdawn. I mean you don't come here just hoping that this guy is going to show up so you can help just him and I'm pretty sure he wasn't the reason Afterdawn was created either.

I liked that last one, Nephilim. Guess it takes all kinds. So I take it we can't quote the rules now. LOL

If you went into an off topic rant about the rules for being off topic, would you then be off topic?

Or

What if you were talking about the piracy rules and someone started talking about the off topic rules, if they are still talking about the rules would they then be off topic?

Or

What if you were off topic and you started talking about the rules of being off topic would that then put you back on topic?

My head hurts now....going to lay down

and...that someone should point out to him its BROKE not BROOK lol

Brooking the rules is twice as bad as if you just broke the rules. Brooking the rules is so bad that you could get on double secret probation or it could just make you a smacktard. lol.

Sorry I was reading old threads, I loved that one. I have not laughed that hard in a long time.
Did anyone ever figure out what that really means?

BROOK
To bear; to endure; to put up with; to tolerate

Brooking rules would be a damn good idea.
