don't say 'unsold', it implies that one or two will actually sell.

Yes, that's exactly what we're saying. Good work, Sherlock.

I really wish these dumb ****ing threads wouldn't show up on the front page. I think I've wasted at least 2 hours just this week sorting through all the bull**** being posted on a constant basis. That's my problem. Since this seems to be the self-help forum, what can you do for me?

Eureka. How about you shut the **** up?

Welcome to the Sock and Feather, please castrate yourself at the door.

Ok kids, three things... first... if you are seriously this emotional about this relationship, seek counceling on a professional basis. Really, love is knowing that the person you are with will accept anything... bla bla bla... secondly, man, if you sorted through this whole thread, your the dumb azz... look at the title, and MOVE ON... posting can be theraputic for some, don't sweat the poor guy, (if he's truely serious that is, if'in he's pulling the perverbial leg, flame on...) and thirdly, check your sig's if your gonna quote someone, make sure they said it first and that there aren't any old people (Like me) out here who know where your quotes came from originally... fourthly, if this was such a bother to you mr anaoamous, why did you reply? Attention issues? Fifthly, I think america needs a math lesson, cauze this is way past three. and Finally, for the rest of you reading this, remember, you never want to reach a point in your life where you say "I shoulda" or "I wish I had..." because there's no going back... time travel aint't happening in our lifetimes, so live for today.... and remember, argueing with someone on the internet is like running in the special olympics, no matter if you win or loose, your still a retard"..

I got an idea...since there is a whole bunch of yas that like writing, and there is obviously issues about subject and content that bothers you.
Write a piece on it. Pour your heart into it and see how it flies.
If you find all the waa waa not to your liking say so.
If you think just because you filled out the registration form that gives you auto-clout say so.
Instead of getting butt-hurt about the term butt-hurt, get on with your assumed intellect and write it up.
Why get into a pissing match, and bicker back and forth. Get on the soapbox state your likes and dislikes and let the community decide.
State what it is that bothers you. Or state what it is that you like.

I have brought the gauntlets, you got the nutz to throw 'em down?

OK guys time to put it out there or de-crack your thong and deal with what Pimprig is.

Amen......that about said it all, and for the last time for those of you that are still gettin butt hurt about just having to read this thread (poor you) get over it. It was a joke aimed at all the little whiners (imo) out there that i believe are leading us away from what this site is about. BTW anon your first buddy, you first.

lAnonymousl, i hate to say it but you are the dumb one for wasting 2 hours shifting thoguh the threads... it doesnt take much to read the first post or two and if dont like the thread move on.

And for those of you complaining about the Sock & Feather Contect drawing the site away from its purpose... tell me why out of the new threads this is the only one from the S&F? If you really wanted to complain about something drawing attention away from the purpose of PR, why are you not complaining about the Anything Goes forum? From what i can see it looks like that forum has the most posts of all..... and oh my god.... not all are related to Modding!

PR is a Community. Always has been, always will be, which means we will have diverse posts, and talke about diverse subjects. If you dont like a particular subject..... dont particpate. Not hard at all folks. Not hard at all.

So on this note.... lets please end this pointless thread. And take Zennzo's advise..... if you really dislike something about about the site, or think there is a lack of content..... Do somthing about it..

i am not complaining about the Sock and Feather, hell it's the only place I can go hear a Good war story from BA.
I 'm complaining about immature people who've had their hands held all their lives and never learned how to deal with a problem and turn this site into recess.
Or better yet whinning bout how theyre gunna leave cuz they got sand in their cl!7.

No offense, but as of right now, you are just as guilty (dumb), cmon man.....

And for those of you complaining about the Sock & Feather Contect drawing the site away from its purpose... tell me why out of the new threads this is the only one from the S&F?

we are addressing the problem on its own turf

If you really wanted to complain about something drawing attention away from the purpose of PR, why are you not complaining about the Anything Goes forum? From what i can see it looks like that forum has the most posts of all..... and oh my god.... not all are related to Modding!

because even the Anything Goes thread does less to destroy this sites identity than a single thread here, but our problem isnt with the forum section, its the threads popping up in them, alot of us consider what we do here as a service to the site, and dont appreciate being crapped on by others who take baby steps to disregard what this site is about

PR is a Community. Always has been, always will be, which means we will have diverse posts, and talke about diverse subjects. If you dont like a particular subject..... dont particpate. Not hard at all folks. Not hard at all.

who are you to talk, once again, with all due respect, maybe there is a chance that this IS a problem, and we DO want to voice and protest and start fires and etc, you wouldnt have gotten your 2 cents in either if you didnt respect this demeanor...

So on this note.... lets please end this pointless thread. And take Zennzo's advise..... if you really dislike something about about the site, or think there is a lack of content..... Do somthing about it..

i say that will only happen when we lose the freedom to be angry...and i will never shut my mouth if i feel like something is awry...not the kind of person to ignore a problem and hope it goes away....

lets kick it up a notch.....

EDIT: i dont mean, in any way, to disrespect anyone (scapegoat) with what i said here, but there is a huge point that alot of the righteous "please shut up" ppl are forgetting when they come in here higher and mightyer......they are NOT practicing what they preach....so spare us the patonizing bs....

EDIT EDIT: and yeh, when i say destroying sites identity, i mean coming here and finding wall to wall Dear Abby posts....hey, im all for having close friends and being able to voice things that are important to you, but there are too many new ppl here who have way too much personal crap goin on for us to facilitate and ignore it before it starts doing damage to this sites reputation....
