| | Welcome back, Patrick!!
I'm rather fine, thank you (excluding my broken toe  ).
Otherwise, you can probably see that this place is quite quiet now, probably since many "spammers" have left. To reasons of that I won't start to disguss here, since you can probably get quite good picture by checking threads from this and next few pages of SYM...

| | Nice to see you again, Patrick.
As for "quietness", I'd rather see it more in the line of "tranquility." 
Although now that there are a couple of Weasel sightings I think that is about to change again.  |

Now, why don't we ask Patrick what these beautiful experiences are so you can focus your mind elsewhere? |

| | Hey, well as Hitler once said 'By the skillful and sustained use of propaganda, one can make a people see even heaven as hell or an extremely wretched life as paradise'
And yeah Patty, bugger you missed it all, but most of the new blokes are gone and the older ones are left. Anyway, good to see you popping in, hope all is well. |

@DW: Yeah... something like teaching some whippersnappers some lessons in the Art of Spamming?  |

| | | I'm just saying, anyone can lable anything anyway they want.
It's comments like that, that just stick with me. Like someone saying 'may or may not'... duh, there is no other choice possible.
That was just a more sophisticated way of placing my point, that, and it's from someone famous, which usually works better.
And whippersnappers? Where? |

Quite convenient considering the context of your over-all post. Quote: |

| Spammer wannabes in SYM...
In case you want to find the context of MY post, check posts of previous pasts when Aegis was Spammer King.  |

| | Don't ask me... ...ask fable. 
Well, Aegis fancies himself as some god of sorts.
Better yet, ask him.
Just be ready to avoid those flying sturgeons. |

That's right, it was Hitler. Hitler quoted Hitler often and because you are quoting Hitler like Hitler did you are just like Hitler. Hitler! |

| | I actually think the quote is very profound no matter who said it. The point being that just because you choose a label doesn't make it valid. I think that's a worthy statement to remember no matter who said it. Quote: |

Maybe it is easier to be very welcoming to all new members when there aren't any?  | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
