ChileRelleno 0 #4 October 8, 2002 Theres just something that alot of us have against people who won't even tell you their name.We figure its kinda rude, and when you put in stuff that makes you seem like a smartass what do you think you'll get back?

motherhucker 0 #5 October 8, 2002 sorry, but I have good reasons for not wanting my profile posted. And to me, it seemed kind of rude/smartass to have a legitimate question replied to the way "duece" did. Is there anyone _not_ hung up on chat room ettiquette that can comment on my question?

Trouble is, this is NOT a "chat room". This is a virtual dropzone. If you cannot understand the distinction, the door is thataway. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

PhreeZone 20 #8 October 8, 2002 Most of us here are willing to stand behind our questions and comments. Annominity is fine, but don't critize when people complain about it. I'm not fond of it... but I can understand if you've followed Rec. for any time.

SkymonkeyONE 4 #9 October 8, 2002 The deal here at Raeford is $30 (unless I am mistaken) to video and $5 more if you dub. We have a well laid-out mixing room here. Everyone on the dropzone is paid by the month over the table and taxed, all legal. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cajones 0 #11 October 9, 2002 Instead of considering it rude, take it as a nudge to update your profile. You'll probably get a little better response, here. The laws of physics are strictly enforced. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybytch 273 #14 October 9, 2002 Quote I would hope that somebody would be a bit more gracious with me in bringing me up to speed on the etiquette around there. There's a link to the forum rules at the top of the page; the rules include some of the etiquette ("Some things will make you popular: 1) Lurk. Spend some time before you storm in" for example). If I were new here, that would be one of the first things I'd look at - long before I made my first post. But, like Clay said, even those foolish enough to mess with ME right off the bat can end up as... well... okay, nevermind. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Okay, Lisa, but I do notice that there is nothing on the list of things to make you popular about having a complete profile. Anyway, that's beside the point.

Deuce 1 #17 October 9, 2002 To Motherhucker or whatever: I like to consider myself direct, not rude. I won't tell a stranger how much money I make doing anything. I think of the forum as a coffee shop or bar (depending on the time of day), you come in, strike up a conversation, and then ask how much money I make, I may or may not tell you. You come in, walk right up to my face and rudely ask me how much money I make I will tell you nothing. You turn around and start carping about me to my freinds, to put it in the best possible way, you're going for an ambulance ride. How gracious is it of you to barge into our pub and ask us how much money we make? Buy us a drink first. If you were a skydiver, you'd understand about cases of beer. Tell us a little about you, we loosen up, you get to pick our brains. You can pick mine with a cocktail fork. Rent some heavy equipment for the BillVon's brain. You get out what you put in. You've already gotten much more than you've given. JP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #18 October 9, 2002 Quote Rent some heavy equipment for the BillVon's brain. That's funny. I hope Bill sees that, he'll laugh...As for me? I don't do video, I don't know what it costs. All I know is that I get $5 for a sport pack and $10 to pack a tandem...Oh, and if you'd atleast put a first name in the profile, then that'd atleast get you going. The fact that you insulted a couple users right off the bat means you're going to have to probably work uphill to get your question answered. A few users have done this, realized that they shouldn't have (its rude), changed their ways and are accepted members of our nice commuity.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."
