Re: Little Mermaid's "inflicting" thread

Arquebus wrote (full post here):
Rather than trying to extract some accolades for acknowledging what I am doing ...
That was not my intention, Arquebus, and I think you know that
– like you profess to read my mind, I take the liberty to make an attempt at reading yours

Yes, my post count is ridiculous in relation to my count of finished WUs.
The quality of my posts is low, too, looked at from every possible angle,
and I’m sure many people here share your viewpoint.
What would you like me to do?
Keep quiet?
Buy more computers with the funds you don’t think I have?
Stop congratulating you on your milestones?
Vanish?

Re: Little Mermaid's "inflicting" thread

Do not let pompous people try and push you to do any thing. If I were him I would take the congratulatory post, thank you (or not) and move on. You are doing as much as you can with what you have and that is enough, Every wu counts. I have a team mate that has been crunching since 2005 and has not made his first (boinc) million, but he is a valued teammate.( I tell him every time he makes a milestone) Keep doing as you are. The forums are much more interesting.

Re: Little Mermaid's "inflicting" thread

♥ sujo1, thank you. You are now a card carrying member of the questionable
'little mermaid support group'

In this thread, our member jose p fonseca gets this reply from our member Arquebus:
Members Email Disclosure:
I think the default should be to show community member email

Fortunately, you are a committee of one
If I KLiK the angry man in the lower right corner of that post, I get the opportunity to
'Report threatening content' to support@worldcommunitygrid.org<support@worldcommunitygrid.org>

If I had chosen to address support, I would have written:
I do not see this post as threatening in the classic meaning of that word,
but it's hard for me to understand why a member feel the urge to be this
sarcastic in writing.
In my opinion it is far more hurtful to the member he flogs
than writing 's**t' instead of 'defaecate'


Arquebus, you are an outstanding cruncher. Why not be a friendly outstanding one?
My e-mail is listed should you wish to explain to me one-on-one
why you have this tendency to being sarcastic instead of having
mine

Re: Little Mermaid's "inflicting" thread

- at least they let you stay in the class room, BladeD, that's why you're so smart smile
I talked to unresponsive coats, scarves, and mittens in the hallway
- but that gave me lotsa practice
biggrin
EDIT: Proper preposition inserted - a 'to'
I talked to; I never succeeded in getting that conversation goin'

Re: Little Mermaid's "inflicting" thread

Hey, little mermaid, I just had a thought

I will take your points to my post count here

and....

You take my points to your post count here

Do you think that evens things out a little?

feel free to use my finished Wu's count if you prefer.

A while ago, you took a break from this forum and it was a poorer place because of that. Please ignore the naysayers, the less than encouraging folks and keep up the good work wink

Re: Little Mermaid's "inflicting" thread

It's a wonderful deal, OldChap love struck
Thank you very, very much

Happiness is having friends like you ♥

Rule #1: Don't change places for anything just because you momentarily think it's a good idea laughing
