What is this, 2007, 2008, something like that? The internet’s been around for like 40 years or something, right? And you still don’t know how to use comment threads, ignore trolls, etc.?Sorry, ain’t my fault.I’ll keep the inanity off the main posts, but if I tried to police the comment threads I’d be doing nothing else, ever. And, you know, I’ve got a newspaper to put out. You’re on your own, pal.
Ginger in tha hizzouse!
We don’t crap on newcomers, we crap on people who say dumb shit or take themselves too seriously – sorry, Rainman!
You think it’s Ginger? I think it’s Rainman.There’s only one way to settle this – DANCE OFF!!!You got SERVED, poop.
oh dear..people need to grow up.. its a comment thread.. if you cant hack it, go anywhere in halifax and just pick up the coast and read it instead of reading it online.. then.. voila you don thave to worry about comments~
Anyone started posting here in the last month (other than ginger and her aliases) and NOT been chased out? Chime in here.
Rainman freaked yesterday because we wouldn’t stay on topic in the Beford highway salt thread and stormed away mad. I think it’s her who wrote this – I think it’s a little too restrained to be our Gingy.
Yeah, it could have been rainman. Either way fancyfeet, danceoff!
I started posting in the past month. There was the odd one here and there before, but I turned regular in March. The only person who ever tried to get me to leave was Gingy.
Perish forbid I chime in on this, I’ll be accused of acting like you-know-who. But, I’m still here, annoying, stoned, and weird. Get used to it. GO UNITED!
Fair point, Miles. I can’t speak for anyone else, but my own comments directed toward Ginger (or Princess Bitch or whatever she was calling herself at the time) were made because I was frustrated at her constantly yanking a thread off track, and at her childish way of claiming she didn’t care what anyone thought, while doing everything she could to antagonize everyone. Not to mention the way she tried to position herself as a victim, while simultaneously going to great lengths to piss everyone off. (No one could be so damned annoying purely by accident.)There is no concerted effort to drive away newcomers — however people who consistently reveal that they have nothing useful to say are legitimate targets, if they keep right on clogging up the threads with pointless jibber-jabber.
I’m pretty new. I’ve been disagreed with, but never flamed.
“Chime” All seems good from here.
And if catlady shows up today, that will be at least 5 newcomers by my count in the last month or so that are all contributing pretty regularly with interesting/funny/not-dumb-as-a-post things to say and are genuinely welcomed. People bring the flame upon themselves because they piss people off, not because they are new. Never because they are new. Nice try/excuse ginger/rainman. Better luck next time.
I should have mentioned in my previous post on this thread that I, too, am new to this forum. I’ve been disagreed with, sometimes with some pretty salty language, but I haven’t been asked to leave, or to do anything anatomically improbable to myself.
Hey Rainman, do you know where a girl can get a decent abortion these days? Oh, right, you’re with birthright, trying to set the women’s movement back 50 years. Silly me.
Hahaha… oh shit!
I’ve posted a few things randomly in the past, but also some this month, and have never been R-U-N-N-O-F-T, nor have I been accused of being Ginger. Two points for me.
ive been lurking for a while, but just started posting.. ive never had any problems!.. other then that damn search button…
If you want regular patrols by the Nice Police, tmnlba, go join a MODERATED forum.
*raises hand* I’m a newbie within the last month 🙂 Haven’t said anything stupid just yet!! But when I do (and its bound to happen) I’m ready for it!!!:) Thanks for being so friendly (to me anyways) Regular Coasters (no sarcasim)
I joined recently and perhaps some might have wanted to chase me out, but of course I asked for it by being obnoxious. After all, what would be the fun of a Bitch board without lots of obnoxiousness and Bitching?- Poor Wuddle Jammie Wammy
jammie don’t let them chase you out. they are a bunch of fucking little pricks and the coast won’t do anything so stay your ground. don’t run. fuck them!
LMAO at “Poor Wuddle Jammie Wammy” hehe.. Jammie you are well spoken, errr, written… I like it…
Jammie, if you keep it up I might just have to write you into the future :)How do you feel about being the father of Gingy’s children? Turns out Matt was less than thrilled at the prospect… It’s a dirty job, but… well, let’s just leave it at it’s a dirty job.
Hey.. Just wondering… Is there a way we can “favorite” some bitches? so we dont have to go through all of them to find the one we want?If Tim is still checking in, which he does on occasion, I just wunna throw that out there 🙂
*ding ding ding ding ding*I’ve been checking in for about a month, no persecution to report. But, it is a bitch board so that could change at any time… which I’m aware of. If I got rumbled out, I’d still show up to read the posts because anger + humour = a winning combination. It’s the fucking internet – if you need your hand held, maybe you should watch TV instead.
How long you have been posting here has got nothing to do with anything. If you are the least bit concerned about getting flamed, go join that other column: Love the we way all agree…
Way to fucking funny !! I’d be a bit upset if Ginger left. I mean some of the things written, I’ve not found anywhere else. Back and forth. Some people getting worked up. Perhaps I am a lamer, but this is very entertaining, all of it. I can’t believe that other online forms have not picked up a similar style.Thank You All Very Much : )
