It's fun until someone gets hurt, and the hurt can be emotional as well as physical. You can say "get over it" but remember: we've all been there before. We can show empathy.
    Yes! If anyone still calls me BooB or b00b, I would be happy if they would stop.

    But I tell them that all the time.

    And the keep calling me it.

    And it annoys me, deep down inside. And it makes me not like them.

    I can feel the love in the air.

    I've disliked a few EoFF members in the past, but they've all left now due to personal reasons. That makes me feel happy and privileged. On a side note, I know me and HOOTERS haven't always gotten along that well. But, HOOTERS: I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize for hating you without you even knowing it. *manly hug*

    I stopped.

    Also, I find it very ironic that even in this thread, people are blathering on about my effing crotch, even though I've been trying to get people to shut the *arf* up about it literally for years. Seriously, people--it might have been funny in 2001. It's now 2004. It's time to find a new *arf*ing joke.

    Sometimes I wish more people would follow Baloki's fine example and not know that I ever existed.

    That was beautiful. Not to mention absolutely true.

    (Bleys snapped...) Truthfully, I've never gotten into thes jokes. Except for a few pot-shots at Jenova.Rebith. But he's always happy to give a poke or two in return. All in good fun. I try not to offend, so if I have, or do, just tell me. I'll behave.

    Many thanks Christmas!

    It's a community on the internet. The Internet. Remember that. Everyone takes potshots at each other, and the staff cannot take care of every single instance. You just have to ignore it, as there's no other way to deal with it, sadly enough. Or, rationalise that the person wasn't being jerk after all, and say he was only trying to poke fun. But you just tell yourself that. But what can you do? That's the one down side to internet foruming.

    This place is one of the best when it comes to general respect, but not always. No place is perfect. (Remember what happened in mid-May of 2003?) But I'll agree on it being up to us to make it sure it's at least semi-perfect and the best it can possibly be.

    when I was a newbie, we didn't have those. why would I read the FAQ afterwards

    Seriously, it's very easy to fix these sorts of problems. If someone is upsetting you, let them know. If you are upsetting someone and they tell you, listen to them and stop.
