I generally have an OWF tab up whenever the laptop is on, even if I'm not looking at it it's probably there.

MeechMunchie 11-14-2011 09:00 AM

I check it compulsively whenever I'm at a computer and not in a game, which thankfully isn't too often.

The spelling comment kind of gets the full brunt of my 'Hypocrites' comment, but anyone who remembers that they used to be a bad poster deciding to hate on bad posters when they join is a hypocrite.

Intergrating into the community superposes they want to fit in and will become 'good' posters to do so, and I don't think anybody here started off as a great poster. Feel free to try and prove me otherwise, but remember this forum has a large large archive.

nah. we just like being shits.

I agree. If we want this community to grow, then discouraging waves of kids 13 years old and younger is they wrong thing to do. Even if they're annoying, they'll eventually learn the rules and become a great poster.



I think we should make it easier for new members. New members might not understand the rules at first, so we shouldn't be expecting much from them. So when the do something wrong, they should merely be warned instead of getting banned.

But the longer they are active on the forums, we should start expecting more from them. If they've been warned once or twice before, then they should know that it's wrong and if they do it again then they can get temp. banned.



I think so to.

i agree?

It helped me become a more moderate Christian, which is pretty cool.

You're certainly on the right path. Now head for that step below moderate and I might actually grow fond of you.

STM 11-16-2011 09:59 AM

You don't have to be fond of me. I'm not changing myself anything more than I want to.

MA 11-16-2011 11:02 AM

why would he want you to grow fond of him, Havoc?

Havoc 11-16-2011 11:48 AM

People I'm fond of get special tiger cuddles.

AlexFili 11-16-2011 12:26 PM

I visit twice a week or so.

Do we get hand drawn MS paint furry pictures too? If so, I might consider toning down a little more.

Havoc 11-16-2011 03:43 PM

Paint? Hell you'll get some nifty photoshop stuff, boy. I'll even draw a cross somewhere for you to make you feel more comfortable. Just let me know where you want it.

People (you included) have been saying that so often for the last lustrum that it would imply OWF started on the peak of Everest.

How about you define the 'Before' and 'After' states the next time you say that things aren't as good as they were?

The quality of humour of these forums has declined somewhat since early 2010. Like I said, it's probably due to OANST's relative inactivity, he wasn't the only amusing poster but he was often a party starter - for lack of a better metaphor.

There.

Wings of Fire 11-16-2011 08:33 PM

I think you mean early 2011.

Strike Witch 11-16-2011 09:00 PM

Crashpunk 11-17-2011 02:48 AM

Whats happned to OANST, Does anyone know?

Also, I miss thay guy who was making that 2D Oddworld flashgame with all his original ideas. We have a tendency to not finish anything in the fancorner don't we :(

moxco 11-17-2011 03:53 AM

He got divorced, attempted suicide and then got engaged. Apparently his life is too exciting for these forums.

Where the hell have you been?

Nate 11-17-2011 05:00 AM

Crashpunk has been around through all of that. I think he believes those aren't good enough reasons not to pop by and amuse us.

Crashpunk 11-17-2011 08:12 AM

Excuse me? What?

Do you really think I'm that much of a bastard that I'll think that they aren't good enough reasons to come back? I didn't even know the fucking reasons in the first place! Nobody told me anything.

How do you know what I believe Nate? How about trying to talk to me before you tell me what I THINK because you got it all fucking wrong.

Jesus...

STM 11-17-2011 08:31 AM

Wow...that must be uncalled for if I think so.

CP, Nate was just yanking yer balls.

Also...I miss MA. D'AWWW WAIT!

Crashpunk 11-17-2011 08:54 AM

Were you? Its hard to tell if anyone on this forums is joking or not.

Wings of Fire 11-17-2011 09:00 AM

I think MoxCo's is the comment that's out of line.

Don't forget being banged up in a mental institution for a month.

T-nex 11-17-2011 09:11 AM

Yea.. I think Nate's post would have been perfect for Moxco's, but not Crashpunk's....

thought the same thing.

Jordan 11-17-2011 09:43 AM

This thread is so controversial. People are being so catty. In conclusion, such cattiness is the future of OWF. ;)

Wings of Fire 11-17-2011 09:58 AM

But I don't like cats...
