Something is definitely wrong here... - Page 842  

Well put.

im adding myself to the list, is that ok?

------------------ START of LIST ------------------
Rep Guidelines:
All pink and orange folks should give their rep to the TOP PINK person - it is suggested that you give them at least 7/10 rep hits/day. The object is to get people on the Pink List to 1 million points as soon as possible.

If we have greens on the list, rep them when you have spare reps. To be eligible to join the list, greenies must have at least 100 posts.

Remaining rep points will be traded (either formally or informally) with your fellow players. Positions No. 2 - 4 on the Pink to Orange list will be arranged according to the ranking in the Member's List sorted by reputation. This way we'll get those with higher point totals to 1 million pts faster and will reward active participation.

Okay by me....

My wife has a childhood dental horror story too... Seems her parents made her go to an uncle that was a dentist. I remember when I made her start going to my dentist after we met. She was amazed at how gentle my dentist was, and that everything didn't hurt.

She then told me about having a cavity drilled when she was very young. Her uncle didn't use dental dams to make sure debris didn't go down the patient's throat, and he wasn't very good with the novacaine. While drilling her tooth, a piece of debris hit the back of her throat and she gagged. Rather than letting her recover, he put her hand on her forehead and pinned her down, then proceded to embed the drill deep into the underside of her tongue.

He then yelled at her as if his inability to use his tools properly was her fault.

She was young enough that it was very traumatic, and to this day she gets very worked up when we have to go get cleanings from our dentist. Our current dentist is da bomb. He made a ceramic cap for one of my friends that has the BMW emblem on it, very cool in a non gangsta way...

Bout time you put yourself on the list dexxr.

I understand he wasn't banned, he was removed as a mod and chose to leave.

you wanna see thin ice.
can you imagine what im walking on right now
with a lunitic following me. lol

ya i agree with hh and dexxr

This is true, I for once am being serious.

My wife, has an absolute unreasoning fear of dentists. She has never been hurt, or had a bad experience ever...but she used to fear them unreasoningly.

Her cure, which in my opinion is all in her head, is as follows.

In every country, in every town or city we have lived in, she will find a practicing dentist who is also Hindu or a buddhist. I kid you not. Her reasoning, which makes sense, in a weird Red-wife kind of way, is that he cannot and will not cause pain and suffering to another being.

She's nucking futs I tell you.

speaking of trolls.
just for kicks i went to see how many posts in the dell section were about bad customer support and horrible tech service.

...long story short, i dont see how the trolls can put AW down for the same issues dell has.

No...but you need to let us do our jobs. We're not here 24/7 and there's only so many of us. I'm still running a 102 fever and am getting yelled at by the wife for being here now...but I am. Because I care.

Report posts and let us deal with the mess...there's no need to go vigilante. I appreciate the protectiveness of everyone here (it is your world, and you should defend it) but you have to let us direct the flow of content as well...and not add to the negativity in the process of saying your piece. Just be patient and we'll get to the troll posts.

There is more to everything than meets the eye...And there are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.

And on that cryptic note...

Goodnight all, have a restful and easy start to your week-ends!

Get well soon Craig...all the best.

ygpm... first!

You're not a noob. The system was designed for people to give positive reps to posters that help out, and negatives to troublemakers. The idea was that those with higher reps would be the guys in the community you could rely on.

It didn't take long for the rep whoring strings to start up though, and after a negative rep attack on me, NassauMike started this string in the AW section so we could keep up and protect ourselves.

At this point the rep system is worthless except as a tool to keep some unity in the sub forums here.

Not even funny...

Now that's a clean wiring job...
