In Reply to: Maaate !!!!!!!! posted by Perthdodgy on Tuesday, 13. July 2004 at 21:16 Bali Time:
1. I cant seem to work out wether you are having a guilty concience or wether you are just really really fragile.
2. But at no time did I name names but when people have read your post I think it will remove any doubt in their mind as to the group of people I have been refering to.
3. Your opening paragraph, the usual boring rubbish that spouts from your mouth, just has me in stitches, NOT!!!!
Maate you are just so funny, you should be a comedian on telly.
4. It just proved all that I was saying in my original posting.
5. Quoting me to justify your position( as in your first quote),I dont mind in the least but at least use the whole quote in it's entirety, instead of selectively using only part of the quote. In it's complete form , it totally negates your reason for telling people to search the archives!!
6. But nowhere can I find your justification for the deriding comments that are made at the same time as telling of the newbies around here.
7. Why not allow people to ask questions ?
8. your second quote of me came from a totally different subject of my post , yet you do not explain the ok'ness of plagiarism of other peoples talent.
Yet you smear that quote all over people to encourage them to search the archives??? (go back an reread your post)
9. Your last quote of me asks a question that would be better directed to Ken the admin fella. Dont ask me, I didnt build this place.
10. You dont have any probs in recalling what Karisma did wrong by you as you brought that up really quick, anyone reading that would think that you have it in for her.
11. Your goldmine of info paragraph I gotta aggree with it all adds to the goldmine we have here. But fresh answers never go astray!
12. as for you being alone in this place??? , I think the responses speak for themselves.look at them all, read them all, then take a good long look at yourself.
13. So by your response all I can say is that I feel totally justified in what I said in my original post.
14. By the other responses I think there are others who are bored by the
repeditive lack of humour and lack of talent that you continually display.
15. now if you would "ease up and have some fun and dont be so serious" and stop p*ssin people off then this would be much better place for the regulars and the newbies.
16. Cheers PD
17. ps feel free to answer all the points of my original post!
not just part of them
18. pps I cant find any JBR's from you, have you ever really been to Bali??
**************
A-1. No guilty concience nor fragile
A-2. No. you did not name names, you must be a saint. As for the "group", gee they better watch out in another 3 weeks when you return with the grey clouds.
A-3. Tried to add a bit of levity - sorry, again it looks like you would like the forum to take on a bland look for the few days a month that you have a look.
A-4. Sorry, what were you trying to prove again ?? Oh yes, that's right, I along with some others on the forum have dead brain cells.
Now without wanting to name names (like all good saints), there has
been quite a number of regular formites that have made reference to
that "meat stuff" - and had a laugh about it.
A-5. I selected the part that was the main point you were making.
And as for advising people to search the archives, I say this as
I search them and read quite a lot of them. There is a wealth of information if people only took the time to search and read.
A-6. Same as A-5, yet I also add that as a newbie myself once, I too
was told by the pre-STAG to search first, so this is just history
repeating itself.
A-7. I have 'NEVER' said to anyone not to ask questions - NEVER.
I have suggested many times - as others have - to have a search
or sometimes I have even referenced my own previous posts / replies.
You find it and I'll be the first to say I am wrong and I'll send
you a slab of Bintang.
A-8. Yes, I use STAG (thank you Cracker) along with many others.
Is it Illegal to use is it ? Most people know it came from Cracker.
Plagiarism - I think that's a bit over the top. You will even find
I asked Cracker (OMG, you will have to search the forum) if I could
use it, as i thought it would make a great T-shirt for BTFormites.
As for your comment - "smear that quote all over people to encourage
them to search the archives???" (please note in full) - I'm glad you
used the word encourage - as that is what I am doing - for their own
good. Again it gets back to my comment that there is a wealth of
knowledge back there, just have a look.
A-9. It was rhetorical
A-10. Again you did not read my post properly - I did NOT say Karisma did anything wrong - I don't have it in for her at all (and you say
I twist things around). I like K !
A-11. We agree - unbelievable !
And as for fresh answers you are quite, I just wish they were fresh questions as well.
A-12. As for being alone (although I really don't think I am), that
really does not boher me too much. I do read replies and I do take
on board what they say. I have been in a string a few times where
'ol wise one from up in the hills has discused a subject and I have
changed my mind.
A-13. Your opinion - always good to hear the other side.
A-14. Response by others - bored by the repeditive lack of humour ?
... and lack of talent ? If that was the case - I would never get a
reply. I must have nudged something in you to warrant a big reply
pointing out all my faults. IF I was such a waist of time in your life,
then you would not have replied.
A-15. Me ease up ! Me have some fun ! Me not be so serious !
Are we on the same page here ?
Again if I - in your words have been "p*ssin people off" then I don't
recall any direct verbal (typed) comments like yours.
And again for the regulars and the newbies, do they have to change
their personality and become all serious just to suit a few ?
I really think most people here on the forum are quite friendly and
like a bit of humor. Gee this world would be a sad place without it.
A-16. Cheers - regards to you as well.
A-17. I have above (I think I have covered everything)
A-18. Yes I have been to Bali - 4 times and are going back again in
Dec / Jan.
As for JBR's, you are correct, I have not posted an "official" JBR,
yet I have put in many posts relating to my experiences in Bali, be
it child sponsorship, reports on hotels, suggestions on 'where to get
stuff' to donations to the Ubud primary school. I thought it better
to do it this way rather than a big long (and you may find boring) JBR.
A-19. oops ! - there is no 19 (sorry, trying to be funny again).
p.s. Thank you for your reply - I mean it. I just wish we could have
had it over a Bintang at Nuri's with the Prince of Flaming Coconuts
as referee, and Colleen writing down all that was said (for her 178th JBR). I hope B-N & C found that funny anyway.
