eddo Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 i'm new, completely new. As a mod, I've gotta ask. What's with the moniker? as a nosy sombitch, I've gotta ask- What's with the complete reassurance, thru repetition, that you are new? Who you trying to convince? 1 Quote I'm trusted by more women.

I'm kind of a big deal. http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/da43a2f8a710897a421f74efa00eba9a.jpg I'm still here. I'm still a fool for the holy grail Not all gay men send me penis pictures. But no straight men do. And to date, no woman has sent me a picture of her vaginal canal.
Guest schoolmom Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 Hello, I am a newby. I was invited to join this forum, so I did. Not sure how much time I will have to participate until summer, being a teacher, raising a family and working on my Masters degree. Politically I am a moderate that leans to the left. I am married and have 2.5 kids. My stepson is 16, my son is 8 and my daughter is 2. I teach ELL at the High School level. I have about one year left until I get my Masters degree (and can't wait for that to be DONE!). Quote
ImWithStupid Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 Welcome to the joint, schoolmom. I sent you a PM. Quote
Old Salt Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 Welcome, schoolmom. Don't worry about not having much time to spend here. 1 Quote
Guest schoolmom Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Thanks for the welcome. It is really weird. Your name is Old Salt and that is the name of one of the main characters in a story we were just reading in my ELL Reading II class. The name of the island that they went to look for burried treasure was "Rose Island" and my avatar is a rose. WEIRD!!! LOL Quote
Guest schoolmom Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Hey, why don't I have any power? How do I get power like I'm with stupid and Old Salt? Quote
Old Salt Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 I think it's after your one-hundredth post you get 1. After that, I'm not sure. Posters like wez have more, but they've got a lot of posts under their belts. Quote

I have about one year left until I get my Masters degree (and can't wait for that to be DONE!). Hey schoolmom.. Welcome to the site.. The more the merrier. I just started nursing school. I had my first clinical today. My back is killing me and I'm exhausted! I went back to school after 15 years to be nurse. I really like it though, glad I did. I can't wait to be done too though. It is quite an intense program.. Good luck on your masters! What are you studying? Quote
ImWithStupid Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Hey, why don't I have any power? How do I get power like I'm with stupid and Old Salt? You get power by people giving you rep for your posts. It's the little symbol of an old tyme scale on the upper right part of the post. People really haven't seemed to get real into the giving rep thing on here yet. Some do. I used to but since I'm a mod I don't want to give the impression that I am siding with any one member over another. Many of your questions can be answered with this page...

ImWithStupid Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 She just got some from me.. the first I've doled out. I forget about that.. never used it before.. Might have to start going crazy with it.. One of the problems with it right now, is that you have to spread it around before you can give more to the same person. 1 Quote
wez Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 One of the problems with it right now, is that you have to spread it around before you can give more to the same person. Just spread some to "Mr power hungry". Think I'll go on a rep binge here quick... Quote
Old Salt Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 She just got some from me.. the first I've doled out. I forget about that.. never used it before.. Might have to start going crazy with it.. They work both positive and negative, wez. Quote
wez Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 They work both positive and negative, wez. All good from me.. wonder if eddo will return the favor. My momma always told me, "if you don't have anything nice to say, shut the hell up". I'm gonna remember to do it from now on.. I see a lot of words from people I love to hear, or see, as may be the case. I did have one negative one.. but it appears that member got banned.. I was gonna give him some good rep but don't have the option to.. Hahahaha Quote
ImWithStupid Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 I did have one negative one.. but it appears that member got banned.. I was gonna give him some good rep but don't have the option to.. Hahahaha Did you try? Quote
ImWithStupid Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Did you try? You're right, the scale is missing on that member's posts. Quote
Old Salt Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Did you try?That option doesn't show on TJ's posts. Just the yellow triangle. Quote
phreakwars Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 The rep system works in part by the users total post accumulation, and in part by rep given to them by others. You won't see a significant number of rep points until the site matures a bit more and has more ACTIVE users daily then what it does now. Some members are GF carry over members, but the site is still in it's infancy stage at this point even with the newer members gained. . . 1 Quote https://www.facebook.com/phreakwars

I'm gonna start using it everytime I see some good words.. which is quite often.. Never even thought about it.. We should give school mom a quick 10. Quote
Old Salt Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 One thing about the reps given by members is that you can't tell who they're from unless they sign them. Quote
