A bunny tower that we can all get on board with - on many levels 😃
Are Rogue One spoilers still barred from the rest of the site, or is it fair game in any thread like TFA is now?
It’s fair game mate - I think it’s been 10 months-ish since it’s cinema relase; and the film has had its’ bluray, dvd, digital download releases and tv showings etc too.
We’re all a bunch of dumb fuppurs
Indeed we all are 😃
It’s mine and several peoples problem actually but not yours I’m sure. And I don’t mean one or two. But I won’t give them away, like you said it’s. It your problem anyway
I don’t know what the end couple of sentences of this post means - it doesn’t read at all.
However, given the content of the first sentence - don’t worry about it - someone else will be along here to explain for you.
To be fair to mfm, telling him “it’s a good thing you don’t have kids” is kind of a shitty thing to say. Apparently it was a joke (I guess?) but it didn’t come off that way.
Yes, it was a shitty thing to say.
It still didn’t need the ‘fuck you’ response.
It did need that response. Had anyone other than Handman or another friendly user said it, I’d have responded even more harshly.
Maybe a response something like ‘What the fuck? That’s a shitty thing to say - where’s that come from?’ would have been a more apt response? and may have also got you some info on why/what caused Handman to say it?
I suppose I should try and explain myself for that comment. I was trying to be rude because Handman’s comment pissed me off, but at the same time the simple “Fuck you.” has been an OT.com lighthearted insult that I thought most people would get, although I guess it has been replaced by “Up ur” now.
You can also use “fuck ur.”
Yes, if you want to annoy the mods, and be issued with warnings etc, then you go ahead and use ‘fuck ur’ to another member of the community…
If not, I suggest you don’t use ‘fuck ur’ either.
Uhm, why? “Ur” is so obviously a silly thing that this community has come up with to use that I don’t see how anybody could take a post with it as a serious insult. And we used to say fuck you to each other all the time to each other and everyone understood that it was a joke. Now all the sudden a new person (through no fault of his own) wasn’t around for the joke and it’s all the sudden not allowed at all? Why not just link him the thread with the original jokes?
I suppose I should try and explain myself for that comment. I was trying to be rude because Handman’s comment pissed me off, but at the same time the simple “Fuck you.” has been an OT.com lighthearted insult that I thought most people would get, although I guess it has been replaced by “Up ur” now.
Not having that mate, at all. If you want to use that ‘Up ur’ as a ‘ot.com lighthearted insult’ instead, then ok.
‘Fuck you’ means exactly what it is - and could well lead to misunderstandings and further issues.
I’d recommend everyone not use that term to other members of the community in the future.
Maybe you missed the ‘… and could well lead to misunderstandings and further issues’, part of the explanation, yes? Same would like apply to ‘fuck ur’s’, no?
I can see many of the fun memories I have of this place would not have been allowed to happen had you been made a mod sooner. Your seeming quest of sucking all the fun and asserting your new dominance as the all powerful super mod of a god damn Star Wars forum is starting to work. Hey did you guys know Jason is a mod now? I somehow forgot since he only intervened in most threads instead of all now.
Aye, a mod asking fellow members to not post ‘fuck you’s’ at other members of the community is really draining the fun, is it? If wanting to post ‘fuck you’ or ‘fuck ur’s’ is your idea of fun then hopefully you will be able to find some other way of having fun.
The rest of your post? I haven’t given it the thought that it doesn’t deserve. If you have a problem with me then that’s what it is - your problem.
To be fair to mfm, telling him “it’s a good thing you don’t have kids” is kind of a shitty thing to say. Apparently it was a joke (I guess?) but it didn’t come off that way.
Yes, it was a shitty thing to say.
It still didn’t need the ‘fuck you’ response.
Well in his defense “fuck you” was an ot meme for months on end but it’s been a while so people probably forgot.
Or that some people on here don’t know about that at all.
I suppose I should try and explain myself for that comment. I was trying to be rude because Handman’s comment pissed me off, but at the same time the simple “Fuck you.” has been an OT.com lighthearted insult that I thought most people would get, although I guess it has been replaced by “Up ur” now.
