Actually, if you look really close, he just bumped up an old thread. Unless I'm missing another one.

And it's unfortunate, because it's one of the threads that got cut in the middle during the move to the new lounge, so it actually looks like a legitimate Bustie started it. Sort of like it makes me look like I started the "party like a rock star" thread.

But I do still adamently support the 50 post limit to stop this from happening in the future! And I'd really love it if the stupid old ones were to get permanently deleted.

gt, how did you manage to link that so that it took me directly to my ignore user section -with his name inserted- on my control panel? hee. Thanks.

Of course I second the 50 posts idea. Loungelady, I know you don't think it's fair to newbies but what's fair to us? I'm glad I checked in here first because if I'd seen those abortion pics one more time I wouldn't have come back.

can we reassert the push for a 50 post minimum before a threat can be started by a newbie? goofy euphy is back and he is going by the name "without excuse" now and he is starting is usual annoying threads.

here is his profile if you want to block him.
new troll : without excuse


i know the lounge lady wants to keep the lounge welcoming, but:
  1. anti-abortion threads/posters repel a lot more newbies than a 50 post minimum.
  2. most newbies don't start threads until well beyond 50 posts.
  3. most threads started by newbies are already topics, and are not needed.
  4. at 50 posts a newbie is part of the lounge and "gets the way things work here."
  5. if a newbie finds they CAN'T start a thread, they will ask another bustie, which gives us a nice way of 'splainin the lounge.
  6. the 50 minimum means newbies won't have someone jump down their throat BECAUSE they started a thread the wrong way.
  7. if there is an new thread actually needed, it is already lounge policy to come to the forum; another bustie can start the thread for them.
  8. it would serve as a troll deterant.
  9. even if a troll wants to post 50 times we will have plenty of time to spot him, and contact the lounge lady before he reaches 50.
  10. it often takes the loung lady a few days before she can get to dealing with trolls (we all know how hard she works) and this way we won't have to deal with numerous annoying threads
there really is no good reason not to have the minimum, i think in every way it ends up being a positive thing, and making the lounge better, and makes it more difficult for trolls.

please, lounge lady, raise the thread starting minimum to 50.
PLEASE!

Is it just me, but are there whole swathes of conversations missing? I was looking for something I wrote in LTAS a few months back & now it's gone & so is the whole conversation. I keep looking for old things & they're just... gone. Is somebody going in & sweeping up things?

Oh, & I suddenly have no avatar.

Hey ladies! So about a month ago, I saw a thread called "My Two Cents...", which was in Working Grrls, I believe. I looked for it today and didn't see it, so I was wondering if it could possibly be bumped, or if it's been deleted, started up again? Please? I need to bitch about money! tongue.gif

Oh, and I'm so happy that the Pink Martini is back! Much more Busty around here... laugh.gif

I want to ask you if you did started up again the thread called "My Two Cents..." because I can't find it... unsure.gif

oh, that was me, ch. not sure why it fizzled out. i found the article i was looking for, though. it was in the issue with gretchen mol as betty page on the cover, and it was more about how to start your own scooter/bike/motorcycle gang. which is good, fun info to have, but not quite what i was looking for. so yeah, if you can generate more interest this time around daisy, i'm officially seconding.

Daisy, the idea was tossed around for a while, but there was never a thread that was started.

daisyjane, I just bumped "she's crafty" for you - it's in AbFab. If you go in there, at the bottom of the page are several drop-down menus, there's one saying "last 30 days" and you can change it to all, it then shows all the threads in there - not just the most recently active ones. There's also a "thread thread" that's more specifically devoted to knitting (I think).

And yes, this is the place to ask! biggrin.gif

fj - you look great in your avatar!

I think this is where I ask - is there a thread dedicated to crafts? Knitting, x-stitch, scrapbooking, sewing?

Alex, here's a direct link to the yeast infection thread, lots of good advice in there!

eta: faerietails, go to "My Controls" at the top of any page, then look at the Menu on the left side of the screen. Way down at the bottom under "Options" is Manage Ignored Users. From there you can add/delete/maintain your ignored users.

hi alex!

thanks for asking! i did a quick search because i really thought there was one, but couldn't find one specifically for yeasties. however, you can check this thread:
General Health Questions and i'm sure you can get some good answers, if not directions to a thread all about yeasties!

good luck!
