BS: No mas.

Subject: No mas. From: Ebbie Date: 01 Apr 00 - 08:17 PM Just for the record: I will no longer read any farther on any post than up to the first communication from any of the ludicrously self-styled consciences of the Mudcat. I was thinking of them as being third graders but they are actually pre-schoolers. The difference is that preschoolers grow up and these people are toxic. I will be happy to receive e-mail from anyone. |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Greg F. Date: 01 Apr 00 - 08:25 PM Bravo, Ebbie!! Now, if we can only get folks to "take the pledge" not to respond to that sort of infantile drivel, we'll be getting somewhere. Anyone want to sign on? Best, Greg |
|
Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: katlaughing Date: 01 Apr 00 - 08:30 PM Okay, Ebbie and Greg, and for Big Mick who has always advocated the same, I have posted my last in response to such ilk. Consider me signed on! |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Brakn Date: 01 Apr 00 - 08:36 PM Amen |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: TTCM (retired) Date: 01 Apr 00 - 08:41 PM And likewise we shall do the same for you. Click if you dare. Nice dimples eh? Obviously the desired changes as a result of the vaccine were somewhat modified by Lafkat's unique DNA...but we can live with it. TTCM --So many flames; suchlittle time-- |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Ebbie Date: 01 Apr 00 - 08:44 PM Right on. |

Seems AC got a bit carried away on the dosage. Awwwww. |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: The Beanster Date: 01 Apr 00 - 09:10 PM Count me in! Although I have made it a policy never to address them directly, I will now ignore them completely. Their aim is apparently, to destroy the Mudcat. Not gonna happen. I've noticed I haven't been taking as much time as I used to helping people find answers but that's not going to continue. I'm leaving the playground. No mas from me. Viva La Mudgato! or is it El Mudgato?! |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: GUEST, The Thread Watcher Date: 01 Apr 00 - 09:13 PM This is all very good news. And seemingly without side effects also. Curious |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Banjer Date: 01 Apr 00 - 09:19 PM If anyone has noticed, or not, I haven't been as chatty as I used to be. I have better things to do with my time than wade thru all the immature bullshit that has cropped up here. I still post to certain threads and continue to support any of my fellow Mudactters in need, but will not lower myself to the level neccessary to respond to the infantile mindfarts of some of our lower class citizens. Sign me on to where I've already been and welcome aboard! Let's all "Take the OATH"! |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: GUEST, The Thread Watcher Date: 01 Apr 00 - 09:25 PM Now there's cliqueness if I ever saw it. Thank you for saying what everybody has been denying. |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Mbo Date: 01 Apr 00 - 09:32 PM Yes, I'm starting more threads for help, and helping others with requests, using all the powers of research granted to me. Maybe if we just STOP arguing and be friends we can all enjoy the music. One of the most important events in the history of Irelands was when the ard ri Brian Boru realized that he could never free Ireland by driving out all the Viking invaders--but to make peace with them and live in harmony would strengthen and unite the country more than endless years of warfare. It's applicable here. We can forget our differences, we all have our own concepts of what this site should be, and I believe a COMBINED entity of ALL our concepts will make The Mudcat Cafe open and acceptable to all. Here is a song, by The Oak Ridge Boys, that maybe we can all learn something from. A smile never goes out of style So brighten up the one that you wear Let it shine And you just might find
You'll lighten up the load that you bear.

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Metchosin Date: 01 Apr 00 - 09:34 PM I'm with you Ebbie and have been for the past month or so. At risk of repeating myself, "Once you get the message, hang up the phone."

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Mbo Date: 01 Apr 00 - 09:55 PM Sure thing! Sound clip is here. Can't find the chords....but I can have them up before tomorrow night. Look forward to it! --Mbo |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Ebbie Date: 01 Apr 00 - 10:32 PM Due to some e-mail input from others, I'm modifying my original stance in a pleasurable way. I'm continuing to read the threads by clicking on individual posts- and not reading the gremlins AT ALL. Try it- you'll like it! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: GUEST, The Thread Watcher Date: 01 Apr 00 - 10:38 PM Ah... so you're NOT going to inhale? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Escamillo Date: 02 Apr 00 - 01:45 AM I´ve been doing that for a long time, Ebbie. (Experience from other sites, which in general are much worse - not even comparable). I appreciate this site and it´s people very much. And will appreciate those who make the sad role of trolls, when they grow up and participate. (I´ll never grow up, but will never be agressive, cause I prefer other kinds of stupidness) Un abrazo - Andrés |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: The Beanster Date: 02 Apr 00 - 01:49 AM Andres, What does un abrazo mean? I notice you always sign off with it and was just wondering... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: ceitagh Date: 02 Apr 00 - 01:54 AM I'm in. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Escamillo Date: 02 Apr 00 - 03:00 AM Beanster, "brazo" = arm, and "un abrazo" is a hug. That's a Spanish expression I allow myself in an English-speaking forum (just one). It is used only among friends. The expression "un abrazo libertario" is much warmer and heroic, but too anarchist ! :)) Un abrazo - Andrés |
|
Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: GUEST, The Thread Watcher Date: 02 Apr 00 - 03:02 AM Well, if it serves to reduce the amount nonsense that's talked about here, this is indeed good news. Will you promise to stick to it this time though? Stick around. You too will get bored with it. |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: wysiwyg Date: 02 Apr 00 - 03:04 AM Andres El Escamillo-- ?Como se dice "un abrazo libertario" en Ingles, por favor? ~Susana~ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: The Beanster Date: 02 Apr 00 - 03:06 AM Awww, that's very nice and thanks for explaining. AND it's easy enough for me to learn! lol |
|
Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: GUEST, The Thread Watcher Date: 02 Apr 00 - 03:08 AM That we are glad for. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Escamillo Date: 02 Apr 00 - 03:13 AM Oops you caught me, Susan. I´m sure it is not a literal translation like "Freedom fighter's hug" That´s the meaning but I'll have to investigate anarchist movement in England or America to find the equivalent expression.(beatiful expression, isn't it?) Un abrazo - Andrés |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: fulurum Date: 02 Apr 00 - 12:11 PM i already pledged to avoid getting ivolved with the flamers, but i just couldn't resist the other day. i'll try to be better. i promise |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: McGrath of Harlow Date: 02 Apr 00 - 12:37 PM Anything with "conscience", tiny font, or too many "g"s I will totally ignore from now on, honest. (Trouble is there's always some other GUEST joker with a new name and a wish to foul up the waterhole, isn't there? Just add 'em to my personal ignore list...) |
|
Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: wysiwyg Date: 02 Apr 00 - 02:13 PM Andres, Gracias... comprendo ahora. Tiene usted el abrazo este tipo conmigo, hombre. ~Susana~ Y por favor... como se dice el nombre "Praise" en el espanol? Como uso. |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Melodeon Date: 02 Apr 00 - 04:42 PM I doubt very much if anyone has noticed but I have not posted to any threads for several months although I've been lurking every day and learning much on the music orientated threads. I have found the BS threads particularly unpleasant and it seems to have worsened since the "guest" prefix started. As one of the silent majority I would like it known that no one who claims to have a consience ( but displays little evidence of exercising it) has ever spoken for me as I am more than capable of speaking for myself. I like to think I'm a pretty tolerant, liberal sort of person but I really am getting pissed off with the anon.coward(s) who are trying to destroy a valuable resource (both musical and social) and please Max if you know who he, she or it is can you DO something. In the meantime, yes I will continue to ignore it. Just one final point, at least you knew where you were with Gargoyle, in fact I have to confess to enjoying some of his posts and I had a respect for his knowledge,which is why I find it difficult to believe that the present poltergeist is him, fortunately though my eyesight is so poor at the moment that I can't actually read most of what he ,she or it writes.

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Escamillo Date: 02 Apr 00 - 07:52 PM Melodeon, how I would like MORE posts from you and many others, than those stupid attacks ! Sometimes I feel bored too, and would like Max to plainly install censorship (personal or group insults are not allowed in the majority of the sites) but I know that nobody has the time to do it. Please, don´t hesitate to post. Un abrazo - Andrés |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: leprechaun Date: 02 Apr 00 - 11:30 PM Alabanza = Praise. Pero no se como te usas. Muchos abrazos. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Sorcha Date: 02 Apr 00 - 11:54 PM The double entendre Praise/Prays does not exist in Spanish, prays = rogar, to request, to beg; and pedir, command, request. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: Escamillo Date: 02 Apr 00 - 11:55 PM Yes, it is ALABANZA or LOA or ELOGIO. Alabanza (act of ALABAR) is used in a religious sense, as well as LOA. Elogio is an expression of appreciation that can be used in more mundane things. It is always used to define the nature of a phrase or speech, but never directly as "Yo te elogio" = "I praise on you" .That's the contrary of what I'll now receive from the "consciences" of the Mudcat ! HA ! Un abrazo - Andrés |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: JedMarum Date: 02 Apr 00 - 11:59 PM Friday afternoon I got on an airplane from Houston to Dallas - full, again, late again (bad weather), I had a gig scheduled and I was going to be very lucky to get back in time ... as my wife and I sat there and the plane continued to be filled with passengers prior to take off, some very very drunk business suited man shouted out to his friends several seats away "these f*ckin' b*astards at Southwest {Airlines} do this sh*t all the time" I don't know what the 'sh*t' was that he was referring to, but I was really tempted to get out of my seat and choke the sh*t out of him with his own neck tie ... not just because I was highly offended by his 'foul mouth' in public, not just because he was drunk and nasty, but because his behavior was repulsive and out of place in that environment, and perhaps because I pissed off anyway - and he looked like a good target! Truth is when I see the idiot flames being thrown around here, I am sometimes sorely tempted to jump in and choke the flamer - but I don't usually speak up, and if I do I speak carefully. It's been said in this thread and others and I think it's quite true; the same nasty and/or unbalanced people we meet in the 3D world, have Internet access just like you and me ... I can't avoid them anymore on the Web then I can on an airplane, and sometimes in either place it's a struggle not to thrash them. But the good news is, I've never actually hit anyone on an airplane, yet! |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: wysiwyg Date: 03 Apr 00 - 12:41 AM Muchas gracias, amigos y amigas. ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: GUEST, The Thread Watcher Date: 03 Apr 00 - 12:47 AM Thank you too, Praise. Stick on the coffee. |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: wysiwyg Date: 03 Apr 00 - 12:52 AM TW, If you're going to target me personally you are going to be very busy. Do keep up if you can. ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: GUEST, The Thread Watcher Date: 03 Apr 00 - 12:56 AM Ooooh, I'm getting all wet at the thought of it. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: wysiwyg Date: 03 Apr 00 - 12:59 AM And apparently you have not figured out that picking on a Christian just makes them stronger and more resolved than ever? Or is it that you would encourage me to follow Christ more boldly? ~S~ |

Subject: RE: BS: No mas. From: GUEST, The Thread Watcher Date: 03 Apr 00 - 01:02 AM The unfortunate (depends what way you look at it, of course) thing about the contribution Marmmy Praise makes to the Mudcat, is that if it continues in the manner it has been, we will all be forced to upgrade our processors at an alarming rate to keep up with her pearls of wisdom. Imagine when she's 60. Serious server upgrade needed. |
