Now, that's..uhm...funny!
Is Swampy the first woman here, or what??

Mega (hopes to see more women here)

[SteveC]

Errr.. MegaMan - Swampy is one of the many women we have in these forums - the moderator of this forum, after all is named 'Holly'. Now, do you think that's a woman or not?

Also, how can Swampy's husband passing away be funny?

Cheers,
Steve

Steve,

I just think Mega is just an arse, and can't help itself.

Swampy,
How old is your daughter? I was 15 when my father died in a car accident, and my sister was 10. You make it through, though.

[MegaManX4]

Rags, just **** off. If you missunderstand me, it's not my problem.

It is definetly not funny to be left alone. I didn't mean that.
The thing i found funny is that swampy is the first woman here I recognized.

And Rags, i hope your post isn't typical for you.

Excuse me... "gentlemen".

Mega, for a MURCer, you act like you never met any of us before. I've been here for about a year now, and have made it abundantly clear that I am female. Ami (PurpleHaze) has been around for about 9 months, also quite clearly female. And SwAmPlAdY was here before us both. I'm sure there's other female regulars who mostly post on the forums I don't spend much time on, as well.

If you missed all that, it isn't **our** problem...!

Oh and btw, your post was poorly phrased and pd easy to misunderstand, when we are all offering our condolences and you say that <u>anything</u> is "funny".

What were you, raised in a barn?

And as to the question of whether that post was typical of Rags or not... if I was you, I'd just let it go. You really don't want to know what kinds of posts some of us hotheads make when we're po'd... and trust me, saying dumb things in the middle of a somber moment, and then arguing when we complain about it is pretty much guaranteed to piss us off.

Do I make myself clear?

Sorry, Swampy.

Motub,

My posts are poorly phrased? So then do a post in German, please. I think that will be harder for you than english is for me.

"raised in a barn?" don't know what that means, please no slang.

And for that "bad" posts, flaming doesn't help at all and only heats up things.
Better stay cool, than everything can be cleared. Right?

In fact I never saw any of you girls here, maybe because I'm mostly in the "technic" forums.
PLEASEdon't take me wrong now.
I don't think that women aren't talented in technics.
I like women in my job and i would appreciate it if there would be more of you.

Mega (who hopes that this won't start any flaming)

Ms. SwAmPlAdY,

My heartfelt condolences to you and your family.

JamesA (whom you probably don't know)

Swamplady, my sincerest condolences.

I hope my topic of a Brief Goodbye didn't give you any more grief.

Jord.

Mega,

Rags, just **** off. If you missunderstand me, it's not my problem.

I didn't Misunderstand you. I read your post from every perspective that I possibly could, and still can't understand how it can be considered appropriate.

My posts are poorly phrased? So then do a post in German, please. I think that will be harder for you than english is for me.

I think she meant that your particular post making jocularity out of Swampy's post was in VERY POOR TASTE. If language is a barrier for you, then I suggest not to make posts in reply to a sensitive situation such as this, as you can be taken in the wrong view.

In fact I never saw any of you girls here, maybe because I'm mostly in the "technic" forums.

Sheesh, now it's getting better. First of all, Swampy has been here MUCH longer than you have, and I dare to say probably has a more thorough knowledge of computers than you or I. The majority of her posts are in the "technic forums", just do a search, and you will see. Holly, the moderator of this particular forum is no slouch, either, and is a regular of ALL forums.

And Rags, i hope your post isn't typical for you.

Hehehe, I saved the best for last; Now, why in the hell would you care if this a typical post for me or not. I will post in any manner I wish to. If I go over the line, I am sure that Ant, or a moderator will slap me back into line, but you sure as heck aren't going to dictate what or how I post. I made a judgment of your post, and I think I hit the nail on the head, you were way out of line.

Edit: Sorry Swampy

Rags
