i read this thread and thought it was rather funny.(quote)Dear AfterDawn Management I'm not going to be as subtle as my friend Tim, who's been kind enough to "go to bat" for me regarding this issue. Only once have I ever asked anything of the forum management and you didn't even bother giving me the courtesy of a reply back, although the request was sent 3 months ago! I feel so strongly about this request and have for the past YEAR now, I'll be leaving Afterdawn permanently this coming week! The only thing which would cause me to consider changing my mind is the forum complying with this modest request. I've been told "it might be too difficult for the staff to do." It obviously wasn't with the existing categories "DVD players" and "DVD recorders" or any of the others was it? You might do well to spend a few minutes looking up my member profile and past year's contributions to your forum. Also spend a few minutes reading a decent cross-section of them, so you can get an appreciation of their caliber and value. Take a few more minutes reading some of the generous feedback and compliments readers have afforded me for making these contributions. Are you so easily willing to loose one of your most regular and valuable contributors over such a trifling matter? Do you really believe I'll be the only member you'll loose as a consequence? If so, be certain to read a few of your own member's comments!
If I recall correctly, the section he requested was promptly made. Maybe I'm missing out on part of the story, but it seemed kind of odd how things went his way so quickly. *edit* Gotta love the drama, though. People make such a big deal out of leaving forums....I mean, wow. It's the Internetz! Serious Business! -_-
All I Would say is one word adiós que te cuides que te vaya bien Key So Everyone knows what the word means ----------------------------------------------------------- adiós - goodbye hasta luego - see you later nos vemos - see you hasta mañana - until tomorrow chao - bye ya me despido - it's time to say goodbye Me dio mucho gusto conocerlo - it was nice to meet you (m) gracias por todo - thanks for everything Me dio mucho gusto conocerla - it was nice to meet you que te cuides - take care nos divertimos mucho - we had a lot of fun me la pasé bien - I had a good time que te vaya bien - have a good one ya me despido - I've got to say goodbye -------------------------------------------------------- This is all i have to say
they are heavily medicated right.thats the only explanation i can see fitting their ramblings.hey can i have a forum for black and white tvs?
I still think we need a classic console thread. I'm sure we can rally up enough of you guys and demand it. If they don't give it to us, we will just leave.
well you know i remember a lot about 8 tracks.ive repaired them,gotten mad and thrown them out the window,etc.a package of matches was crucial to the final adjustment so they would play.lol.i see the new thread for dvd vcr combos is going like gangbusters.
there must be more of us who have a ps1 than all the other consoles put together, yet no section. I asked about these machines (dvd-vcr combo) in something like 6 high street retailers today.. to blank looks or "they're obsolete.. we have no plans to stock a discontinued item.. try fleabay" I know magnavox are notorious for selling things which are well past their sell by date. I think they over manufacture then sell right up to the bitter end. Zenith {{magnavox manufactured remembering the service sheets}} were the last maker to sell 405 only tv sets in the UK.. right up to 1980.. more than 10 years after everybody else had given up, and only 5 years before the end of all broadcasting using that system.. So should we start having hissy fits and demanding/threatening stuff if we don't get our way for whatever obsolete/minority piece of hardware/software it may be?? I want a sco/unix user thread
Just be thankful none of you have been PM'd or had a hissy fit in your shoutbox on this subject. Let's just say it takes a lot for my eyebrows to be raised
@creaky, What, pray tell, happened to your new friend Mike? He seems to have withdrawn his posts from his personal board. Could it have been something someone said?
I hadn't noticed until i saw your post; hmmm, he has indeed edited them all out, very strange. He'd already thrown a strop by editing out his comment in my shoutbox after i hadn't replied to his scary comments and far, far scarier PM (hey even i do things outside of Afterdawn!). I just didn't know how/what to reply to them edit- oh dear, he's taken a personal afront to me closing a multipost of his - http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_jump.cfm/400006/4054582 Ah well, there goes my mod privileges then
That could be part of it too, but the thread had served it's purpose (and probably had scared many more people too). I never delete PM's, so the pages of comments in the PM i received from Mike will haunt me as long as i'm part of this site (and probably for the rest of my life)
