tired of the straight dope message board

[Bones]

does anyone here still post there?

[Sarahfeena]

Welcome! Glad to have you.

I do still post there. Not a lot, but I read the board, and if there's a topic I'm really interested in, I'll throw in my two cents. I'm more inclined to get very involved in a particular thread than post here and there around the board.

It's a trick, Bones is EXY!

[Oliveloaf]

(or...am I?)

[Sarahfeena]

Ha ha, ignore him Bones, he thinks he's funny.

I don't think I'm EXY. What is it?

[Oliveloaf]

Sorry. I overreacted. I get twitchy in the afternoon.

[Bones]

I know chat is popular here but it doesn't work for me. Do I need set up a seperate log on?

Um, yeah, it's a 'Phant social group. Um...guys who really like L.A. Law.

Hi Bones, at 5 posts you'll see the CHATE forum.

I still post on the Dope but lightly.

[Bones]

I can see it but when I try to go in it tells me I don't have permission.

[Bones]

it still doesn't work for me.

[Oliveloaf]

it still doesn't work for me.

The Exy detector is blocking him.

[Bones]

No bg deal I guess.

Do you guy post at Giraffe's board too? I haven't visited it since forever but they were sort of weird.

[Queen Tonya]

I still read the Dope regularly , but was never a prolific poster there.

It takes either 20 or 60 minutes for the auto-updating to move your member status up to member so you can see and post in Chate. It looks like you can now. I rarely post on GB, no really problem with it but they developed a certain set of in-jokes and ways that I am not as comfortable with I guess. I still post and read occasionally over there.

[Sarahfeena]

So Bones, was that your username at the SDMB, too? Just wondering if we know you.

[Trojan Man]

Is there still malware over there? I haven't been since that got bad.

[Hatshepsut]

I read lightly at the SDMB. I don't really care about it anymore, but damn there are some funny threads over there from time to time, such as when ZPGZealot argues that handshake=rape.

My posting is even lighter, but I'll take the bait if people start going on about something near and dear to my heart that doesn't take me a lot of time to respond to, like naming conventions for married women or conditions in Indonesia. I also don't rule out starting a thread there if I ever have a question that the SDMB can help with. A few months ago I posted a computer question in GQ, and got a very helpful answer that I have used many many times since then.
