I invited a few more

[High Cheese]

YT, Ironchef, Ghetto Racing Kid and PanchoHambre. Anyone hear from BT?

[Calicolady]

OH, OH, who's going for beer?

[JoeV]

I heard BT is on vacation. Not sure when he's due back.

[High Cheese]

LOL...wait 'til he sees his public messages. :yum::oops::whistling:

[Calicolady]

Hey, jeek, who's M.B.?

[High Cheese]

Remember *amy*? She got whacked by the powers that be over there. I emailed a couple times but I lost her address. Hopefully she's lurk over there and see it. She always posted great recipes.

[Maverick2272]

Oh man, there goes the neighborhood!!:yum:

[High Cheese]

I'm tempted to just put a link in my signature.

[Calicolady]

Jeek, yes. I remember. I tried to befriend her, but she said due to personal reasons, she would not accept/add friends, and hoped I would understand.
I did, as I got wacked in Nov.. Not bumped, but warned, and it was childish, so I stayed off for 6 weeks. I'm still pissed.

[High Cheese]

I never got warned, but I've been scolded a couple times. Actually, I clearly remember one time was for using the word "crap". I was like http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n248/Jeekinz/Smileys/emoticon_lame.gif.

Now you see crap everywhere. lol, not like that but...you know what I mean! :yum:

[sattie]

You go Jeeks! I use to have Amy's number, but not sure. If I do, I will call her. I actually told her about this place when I left the other forum a few months back.

[Maverick2272]

I got warned for having a signature that was too long...:huh:

[Calicolady]

Who said, "Power should be confined to men (women) who are NOT in love with it."? Plato or Socrates
Soooooo, nothing new under the sun, eh?

The bar is open!!!!!!!! I've got the beer.

[PieSusan]

I got warned for just about everything that I did. Twice for the recipes that I posted. Even though I read the rules and rewrote the directions because I said based on a recipe of so and so, I got written to twice. I said get the books out of the library and check.

I use to be a legal editor, I think I know what copyright law is and the exceptions thereto.

You know that :wink:

[PieSusan]

No, I didn't know that. Mav knows and understands--that is enough for me.

[VeraBlue]

Bucky went skiiing last week....but should have been back by now.

Who wants to go in my hot tub??? You have to run naked through the yard and go barefoot in the snow...but it's worth it when you hit the 101 degree water!

[VeraBlue]

Reasoning using valid points will get you nowhere.
You know that :wink:

Oh no way!...I tried to point something out to him once and he backpedaled so fast he lost a year in age....but it still got me nowhere. I can see him stomping his feet from here.:pat:

[Doc]

Loved our hot tub in the winter. Sit in it when it was snowing, sipping on a glass of mamosa....ahhhh the memories. :D
Hot tub is broken now dangit. :pat:

[VeraBlue]

It's no good to have a broken hot tub, Doc...that's like having a 5000 dollar planter in your yard.

I love being in the tub during a very gentle rain,too!

Had a hot tub party once...and the most people in the tub at one time was 18...some completely in, some just sitting on the edges...
Found an unopened bottle of coconut rum at the bottom the next morning:thumb:

[Doc]

You are so right Vera. We had our share of parties when it was working. it's an 8 person 8, but 6 fit comfortably. Costs more to fix it now than I paid for it. When I hit the lotto I'm going to replace it.....I just have to remember to Buy A Ticket, I hear your chances are a little better that way. :pat:

[waybomb]

What's wrong with it Doc? I needed a new control for mine. The local hot tub place wanted hundreds for it. I went online and found an online hottub parts place in San Diego. Got it for 79 bucks. A few screws and disconnecting / reconnecting wires and we were good to go.

[chowhound]

Oh no way!...I tried to point something out to him once and he backpedaled so fast he lost a year in age....but it still got me nowhere. I can see him stomping his feet from here.:pat:

Exactly my point, Vera :smile:

Hmmm, hot tubs... I was at some interesting hot tub parties when I used to jump. Nothing like a hot tub with the stars over your head.

My neighbor hardly ever uses his anymore. I wish I had a good place here to set up a hot tub. I have land, but I really don't have a back yard.... :sad: I could probably have his cheap. I guess it was a fad.

[TexasGirl]

YT???????? He will peek in, I'm sure when he's not so busy. Got the baby on the way and that takes up a LOT of time, lol

I worked for awhile in a Miami Swinger's club as a bouncer. They had two hot tubs that 20 people could get in at once. The health department checked every single night before we opened. Very interesting job for a while.

The 'brain' control thing is bad. I never tried going online for the part. :pat: Now that it's been sitting through this freezing weather ...it probably has more issues from water freezing in the lines. ....

I think Vera put it well...... $5000 planter. You going to put in a tree or shrubs in the spring? :yum: Maybe a combo!!!

[Doc]

Actually I should just move it (it's built into one of our decks) and reclaim the deck space.

[GhettoRacingKid]

Anyone drop a line to LEF?

glad to be here. I feel honored to be mentioned

[High Cheese]

Invite whomever you want.

[High Cheese]

I contacted: pugger; bethzaring; miniman; roadfix; CharlieD

I tried Mama but she turned off PM's. She's got some killer recipes.

[chowhound]

Cool.
Beth had emailed me and I sent her an invite, too, but she's not into gabbing. Still, it would be nice if she popped in. It's great the way she is so self-sufficient.
I wouldn't mind seeing Ol-blue here either. I love her recipes, too. (hint, hint)

Give me some names and I'll contact them.

I'm not sure if I should say anything but I'm wondering what the heck you guys are talking about?

Is this a private forum or something? And why is everyone so pissed off about "over there"? Where is over there?

If this place is private, I'll just quietly exit and say :oops:
I belong to a couple of other cooking sites so I thought I'd try here too, but I'm thinking I might not fit in very well here.

[lilylove]

over there... is another site that some of us belonged to... THIS IS NOT A PRIVATE place!!! Don't leave. UNLESS you are mean and grumpy or you hate more than you LOVE....or you would rather complain than laugh!

Oops, I deleted that one CH. But thanks for letting me know.

What I said was that I had a post about John Travolta's son dying removed because they were afraid it would start a religious debate due to the fact he and his wife are into Scientology. The Mod that deleted it was very nice about it because she had actually put up a similar thread the day before and was told to remove it. I have to admit that while this is minor, it did ruffle my feathers.

hum, seems as though many of us got the wrath from the AdMins or Mods over there.
I tell you what.
I became unnerved about being scolded like I was 7.:respect:
Who do these people think they are?
I check on the site just to look up recipes etc.
For that, you don't have to login.
I did like it so much there, but realized I do have bigger fish to fry.

What about Uncle Bob? He seems like a genuinely nice fellow. Great source on Cajun food too...

[Maverick2272]

This is definitely a very public forum, but that doesn't stop us from embarrassing the heck out of ourselves and each other! LOL.
"Over There" refers to Kiddie Land... where you are treated like a child and scolded for every little thing. Not to mention the fact that there are so many things that are now not allowed to be talked about that, well, we were running out of things to talk about!

Which is odd, considering they allow so many (children's) games it's become more that than a food forum.

[PieSusan]

I must have somehow started off on the wrong foot with one of the mods and she assumed the worst of me without getting to know me. I had no desire to create havoc; I just wanted to find a friendly place where I could relax and destress and share recipes and baking tips. I had left a place that was full of flame wars, shenanigans, sockpuppets etc. and I didn't want to deal with that anymore. I tried to be very clear about my purpose.

After the intial arguing back and forth--it grew tiresome. She always had to have the last word and constantly including other people in our private messages. This mod had to criticize me constantly--posts were deleted. I don't want the hassle. I just want to have some fun. I never intended to hurt anyone's feelings or "say the wrong thing" but I do expect to be treated respectfully and I have the right to protect myself from online predators.

[Calicolady]

What about expat? Although she has been a loyal member no matter where she is in the world.

[PanchoHambre]

Funny I never got in trouble my self... tried to shrug off the BS because there were all these cool people with great ideas and knowledge.. all of the people who seemed to get the mods PO'd were the best posters though.... anyway... they are pretty much all here now... anyway now I am going to start the thread I always wanted to.

[High Cheese]

I invited Expat, I can't remember if I PMd Allen. Folks, feel free to invite who you want. Somw will stay, others may not. No biggie. The main issue we had was the admins on that site, heck, they can join too ifthey want. But Doc and the gang run THIS PLACE. And thats why I'm here.

Lydia you bring up a great point and example! Rep points for YOU!

Keep in mind that us Mods rarely intervene and 99.999% dont delete ANY posts. We should all be treated like adults AND act like adults. Able to discuss and even debate. If there are mean-spirited personal attacks.... the thread will STILL not be closed (99.999% of the time) or altered. The mods will STRONGLY urge the people that took a debate into an argument.... that they take it to PMs and settle things themselves! If the argument starts affecting the rest of our community peers, their peers (that youts guys ;) ) should also tell them to take their argument into a PM. That very very rarely gets to that point.

Its pretty simple though. We want our community members to be treated with respect, courtesy, have a damn good time, learn and share recipes and be treated like adults! :mrgreen:

This is MY take on things. Pretty sure Doc and Sattie and Jim S. feel the same. I HOPE they do :tongue:
