hey there, peeps! i was glowlita, but (in my absence) i became stickier. i've been tired of the lack of meaning on facebook lately and i never found another place that had as much depth/personality as the lounge. just wanted to say hi. so that's why i (may be) back. why i left: lack of time, personal strife, personality clashes, feeling like things got a little vapid. i am not totally hip to all the new protocols (mods? minimal thread creation? people get freaking suspended now???) and i don't know if there is a quick crash course in that or if it is something i should just learn by observation. anyway. hiyee. |

I'm back, girls! And I have presents for all of you! Hehe. Hi! I'm glad to see some familiar faces are still posting. It's been a while. I've been busy. I'm not that busy anymore, so I'm gonna be BUSTIE instead. Woop woop! Hugs! |

Hey everybody,
Just wanted to say hello. Newbie here, I'd been a bust reader forever and a lurker on this site for a few weeks. Seems like there's a lot of clever folks here in the lounge with a lot of interesting things to say. I thought, heck, why don't I join em? |

Hey rad, I clicked on the Lo-fi version as suggested and what do you know...worked like a charm. Can't add a reply, but good for catching up on existing threads of conversation. Sweet

My name is Marry and I'd just like to say hi to everyone. As everybody knows that nowadays forums are the best source of Knowledge, and through forums we can learn a lot. When I heard of the community I thought it would be wonderful to expand to a new community, meet like minded people and share thoughts and services with fellow members.I am sure there's a lot of interesting topics and discussions happening on this forum and wanted to check it out.I was looking for a new forum to join and the higher powers of Google has brought me here!
I look forward to meeting you all and wish you the best of success. -------------------- |

hey naki! <3 yay!!!! so glad to see you around here! it's been forever
 izzy: i know it might seem confusing at first, and the exact opposite of other boards, but the lounge works differently than most fora-- it is self moderated, so we'd rather have a few extremely long threads rather than a bunch of little ones. because of that, starting at the beginning of a thread actually works against you, since some of the posts are from 2 or 3 years or longer ago. so while it's good because there is a lot of collective knowledge in the threads, for most people visiting a subject for the first couple of times, it's not needed. the last page posted is usually more than enough. which is why the lounge is set up this way. -------------------- "what a swell farewell party! we said goodbye to everything, including the lining in my stomach." - garvey, from the film, born bad "That's one career all females have in common, whether we like it or not: being a woman.

Hi. I thought that I should post here. I used to post a lot a really long time ago, and was quite active from 1998 or 1999 to 2004. I'm not sure if anyone remembers me but 'hey' if you do.

Issy, I don't think you can change it but the conversation changes all the time so usually you can just start a few pages back and then work your way forward.
As for the troll, it will probably be cleaned up by tomorrow when someone is back in the office. |

actually, if you click on "lo fi" version on the bottom of the page it displays older posts first.

To be honest lurking has caused me to lose a bit of interest, most of the posts have been about the troll, I am not interested in jumping in existing drama, between that and the impossible to follow board format I'd rather stick to the front page and avoid all the mess

Issy, there is no way to change it. But the first page should give you a good idea of what's going on in a thread. If you're not sure, just lurk, or even ask. Most threads are pretty self explanatory.

Is there any way to change the display so the most recent posts are displayed last? I'm finding it almost impossible to follow conversation veins here with the format displaying what to me looks like posts in reverse order

I am so confused....
This board has me all backwards, maybe there's a fast fix and I just can't see it but instead of appearing in date order from oldest first, I am getting the newest responses at the start of the thread and I can't get it to display Oldest->Newest like I am used to from pretty much every other board I post on. Help? -------------------- we may have just changed the world

Welcome pinky! Just want to warn you that we currently have a troll here who is taking up a lot of space and posting abortion pictures and quoting scripture that is irrelevant to all of our discussions. Just ignore him and enjoy the real conversations taking place!

Hello everybody, I'm new here and wanted to say 'Hi' to you all.
I decided to join after having one of the strangest days today....where: 1) a young man aged around 15years in a school where I was giving careers advice made some silly comments about women being only good as strippers or wtte. 2) A middle aged misogynist that I have the displeasure of working with decided to randomly make comments in front of colleagues about my appearance (i'd had my hair cut) and how I was, in his opinion, attempting to put myself in the shop window for men. Completely unprovoked and rather demeaning.  3) The brother of a guy I used to date back when I was about 19 randomly sent me a message on facebook telling me that, having browsed my photos, I have a lovely 'pair' and I should be really proud of myself!!! (none of my pics are even revealing)  There must be something in the air I think....! Anyway, after today I've decided to make my own little stand....!  Hope you don't mind my ranting on my first post.....Thanks for listening.  PinkyP... xxx -------------------- Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, never an opportunity. (Khalil Gibran, 1926)
