I'm glad Vecsus has a thick skin.  Please give him the benefit of the doubt before you read bad stuff into his posts - he has been a valuable contributer to the beastlord community for a long time now.

Quote from: Vecsuswho said it does?  I pointed out that the desire to draw out lurkers is not limited to this site.  Other classes have done this same thing as well.  Stop trying to infer malice into my comments.    :evil:

Its the whole "both sites" thing and the "We" bit.  Not malice, just seems rediculous that every post I have read from you has been like listening to a teenage girl talking about her new boyfriend.  Always bringing him up for no apparent reason.

OK, I'm not trying to be the great defender here or anything, but personally I took the "we" as an inclusive "we", meaning mods/admins in general.

Vecsus

ok...Furlyne, a little reading comprehension lesson for you.  When a writer is discussing two related groups of which is he is part of both, all subsequest "we" statements refer to both aforementioned groups unless otherwise noted.   This is doubly true when those groups are closely related in their composition and purpose.  Trust me, when I want to start trouble there will be no doubt about my intent.   :wink:

Hehe the mental picture of Vescus in a skirt is, ...disturbing - esp when he is hugging lurkers :(

p.s. Hrann is the great defender!

Sounded perfectly in context with what the thread was about to me.

In fact your post sounds more like an asskissing the admins of this site attempt than anything he was inferring.

And what you just described above is EXACTLY what I was refering to.  

This thread was an offshoot about a proposed policy at this site.  That issue has been resolved.  It appears that some folks wanted to reassure lurkers that their was no hostility or malice toward them.

Try to take in this next little part:

It had NOTHING to do with both sites together until you brought up "Both sites have made a call to draw out the lurkers. We're not picking on them  We're just inviting them to come out into the open."

One more time in case you didn't get it all:

It had NOTHING to do with both sites together until you brought up "Both sites have made a call to draw out the lurkers. We're not picking on them  We're just inviting them to come out into the open."

Your "We" is refering to this board and eqbeastlord. (see your comprehension notes above for explaination of this concept)  This thread had nothing to do with both boards.  Like I said, its like listening to a teenage girl talking about her new boyfriend. Always bringing him up for no apparent reason.

Fortunately, most of those teanagers eventually grow up and figure out that who they are screwing is between them and their significant other, and no one else give a rip about it.

I hope that sooner or later you realize this also and stop preaching the virtues of your beloved eqbeastlords.

I am sick of assholes like you.  If I want to listen to someone rave like a little girl, my daughter is right here, I don't need to come to this board or any other to get more of it.

With this I say good bye to my fellow beastlords.  I'm out of here.

Lol...

Wow

Trust us when we say, long time readers will know vecsus was NOT trying to be offensive etc by his post above.

Not that he needs ANYONE to defend him at all, but his post was completely innocent in my book, and had he wanted to be offensive you would have definately known about it.

He has been a member of the beastlord community (singular not plural) for longer than i have, and i have been a part for over a year so probably should cut him some slack.

Sorry folks, but this thread is going nowhere real fast. Consider it locked :)
