I think AS was correct in saying it had 12. But, ClaireBear must have deleted her birthday after AS saw it.

Alcar...

No...I have never posted my age... I think it was a sarcastic comment contected with my choice of avatar or plain picture as I like to call it... as I'm an IT layman... sorry...girl...sorry person (Don't you hate trying to be PC?) it'll take me a while to up load anything else. So for now the baby lemur is the closest thing there is to a Bear!

If anyone has the power to change it for me into a Bear... I'm talking a nice cute Bear... polar would be nice! Feel free!

Woo, go me. I'm English. Love tea. And crumpets.

Nah! Crumpets are evil! Now... tea and toast with a load of butter on... Oh yeah! Bring it on! ;)

Nice to meet you Esus!

Oh shit! (I mean pooh!)

Looking back I have just quadrupled posted!

But its because I was addressing your points as I read through the thread!!!! I forgot!

But how can I reply to everyone in one post... I'm old you know my memory aint that great to remember everything to say!!!!!!!!

Ooooops!

I take it this'll be my first warning then.... is forum prison an evil place? ;)

Di$array 04-01-2004 09:51 PM

:eek: yes you have got to learn :fuzzle:

ClaireBear 04-01-2004 10:05 PM

But I can't help it! I'm old!

Can't you guys just overlook my ineptitude?

I believe what I've posted is relevant and mildly funny in parts... you can't teach an old dog new tricks!

I just can't cram everything into one post! I'm not used to it! :(

Esus 04-01-2004 10:11 PM

A common procedure here is to press the edit button, which appears as:
http://www.oddworldforums.net/images...munch/edit.gif
This lets you add more points to your original post - such as addressing more quotes and the like... :)
The button is positioned in the bottom right hand corner of your personal post.

ClaireBear 04-01-2004 10:22 PM

I know but thats pooh! It will ruin my flow of thought... there is one floating around in the vast open expanse of my skull!

I just reckon I'll be the Steve McQueen of the forum like his character in the great escape... constantly in the clink!

Plus... Hey wait a minute! You're British Esus... its 10:20am! Shouldn't you be in school / college? ;) (I'm joking... my humour again!)

Esus 04-01-2004 10:29 PM

Why, yes I should. But because its the day before the easter holidays, we have one of them there "Inset Days/Baker Days" where we don't need to go to school.

Though I have to go to school later to quickly hand in my Business Studies coursework and finish a bit of graphics :(

ClaireBear 04-01-2004 10:36 PM

Ahhhh! Inset days! Sitting around listening to presentations about teaching methods you already use or couldn't with the morons you teach!

As a teacher I must say that we almost always organise it so in essence we get an extra day or two tagged on our holidays!

If you're going into school don't leave it too late in the day as believe me they'll be out of there by 2pm! ;)

And another thing... as I can't find teaching work at the mo I'm temping in a 6th form college call centre and we deal with absense so anyone over 16 but under 19.... you're not safe either! Mwah-ha-ha-ha! ;)

Di$array 04-01-2004 11:53 PM

yes tell me about it :fuzzle: but there are ways around it

Codek 04-02-2004 05:19 AM

"Assistant teacher?" I'm a qualified Primary Teacher (Kindergarten for those of you across the pond!)

I could be a big sister on here... I'm 23!!

I'm so sorry about yesterday.. but I really do like it here... I've got some great "helps" (I don't like to think of them as cheats!) and I love it how you guys really appreciate the skill and precision of the artwork and whole package of the game not just the game play.

Its just that... I KNOW I'll break the rules unintentionally but constantly...... I'll be barred more often than Homer from an "all you can eat" in Springfield!!! :( ;)

Hmm, I can't seem to find the post where you said you were an assistant teacher, so you must've edited it. Whatever. I'm not really bothered what you are, so long as you at least turn out to be good in conversation.

It's very easy...you'll get used to it. Here's what we do. We read through the entire thread from whence we last read and quote comments we'd like to reply to.

This button is your friend. ;)

Another thing... can someone give me details on the smilie short suts that actually work here!!!!! Half of what I usually use just don't and its really start to piss me off!

Foook! This probably should have been another thread yeah!?! Bugger it! Arse and balls!

I can't do this! Where's my baseball and glove... I'm heading for the slammer!

Surely an ickle question like this would just be a waste of new thread space?

Codek 04-05-2004 04:41 AM

Oh god not you again. :rolleyes:

Di$array 04-05-2004 04:43 AM

I express dispair and suddenly you get the impression I own the OWF, and must be asked before anyone posts anything?

You are quite genuinely strange.

Oh sorry Death... the smilie Rolleyes is generally an indication of sarcasm and when tagged on certain comments like yours can be read as offensive... thats all...

My apologies!

Not strange... just trying to work out what the smilies in here are used to signify compared to elsewhere

Codek 04-05-2004 05:06 AM

Uh... fine?

ClaireBear 04-05-2004 05:16 AM

:

Uh... fine?

Remember the rules Death! Is that 10 characters? Just me thinks...you're safe! :)

If it wasn't, the system would not accept his post.

Really? My goodness it actually does that!!!!!!!!! LOL!

You're really not helping me in my opinion of these rules Mac! Its like I'm being "Big Brothered" and I mean in the Orwell sense not the Channel 4 reality show!

Codek 04-05-2004 05:32 AM

Bah. Just follow the rules. Not like it's some big deal.

Nobody is big brothering you. In the Orwell sense or Channel 4 UnReality TV sense. You are expected to follow the rules, but that comes with any establishment. We just outline ours more heavily, because sometimes the new guys don't get it.

I am following them... I just didn't now this system would physically stop me from posting a short post!

Is there no karma system here?

That would be good! :)
