....like when clearly the post has no relevance or adds no value to the OP's question or concern.

Like this:

OP Question: I am having trouble finding a good fish recipe I like...can anyone help?

Response: I hate fish! Fish makes me gag!

Can someone explain the purpose of this? I mean, if you don't like fish, then why dont you just move on to the next thread? Who really cares what makes you gag or not gag???? I know I don't.

Uggh off to find the couch to 5k thread AGAIN.. seriously plateau, me being too lazy, too many liquid calories, and snacking have gotta stop.

Hi Brandy!

Best wishes getting off the plateau! I'm hearing a lot of us across the boards saying the same thing!

Oh and where in OR are you? I'm going to be near Sisters in a couple of weeks, for about a week. I'm meeting Kristen (krtork) on my way thru her town. Wanna hook up if you're in the area?

Have a great day!

TAP!!!!!

OH MY GOSH!!!! You're back!!! YEA!!!!!!!!!!

I am SO happy!!!!!! :biggrin:

And your post was perfect! I think you pretty much covered everything quite well!

Alright kids - I'm pretending to be awake - got much to do - just taking quick timeout to say hi you peeps!

Hi KC!!! <waving madly>

we were having martinis w/a certain vodka & DH decided that's what she should be called.

probably all wrong - but it suits her.

Nah, not all wrong! Our last dog, the one that had cancer, was named after our truck at the time! Well not named AFTER the truck but I like the name, changed it some and that's what she was, CheyAnne.

Our current DDog was named by my mom b/c DH and I couldn't think of anything! I've never NOT been able to think of a name for our dogs/cats but she just wouldn't be named! So mom threw it out there and we both liked it so Dakota is who she became.

Well, heck! I don't know if it would have been better to just do one huge multi-quote post or all of these little single ones!

I get tired of my long-a$$ multi-posts so I can imagine the rest of you are down right sick of them but all of these single quotes seem a little ridiculous too! I just can't win! LOL!!! :biggrin:

I guess no matter what I do y'all are just going to have to put up with it! :blushing:

BBL!

Welcome back Tap!!!:biggrin:

So what did Goose get ahold of now?! :biggrin:

Amen.

Although, I'm personally hoping Carlene (HH) shows up again...

But, then I'm a trouble maker...

Amen.

Double that Amen!

Carlene was uhhh rather disturbing let's say - but I miss the persona behind her/him - whatever! (shocking I know!)

Can we get him back - and disband the haters who seek to bring him down?

LOL, KC -

I really just don't get it! I've seen folks attack and be attacked SEVERAL times on this thread and I've NEVER seen the mods smack down so quickly as they have the last few weeks.

Even Pinky got smacked down, and she was FUN. lol.

So, in all honesty - can any mod answer me? Why so many smack downs and bannings on folks these days?

Amen.

I don't think that's going to happen. Just saying.

I had Multiquote "highlighted" a lot of posts with sage advice, but stuff progresses so quickly when I'm away that I found I didn't have much to add. So all I really have to say new is "welcome back, tap. Missed ya."

LOL, KC -

Glouc, a lot goes on behind the scenes, with PM's and such. Nobody is ever banned (except for blatant spam posts) without debate amongst the mods and several PMs with the person in question. PM me if you want. I won't say too much in the public part.
