do we have free speech here (which may offend others, the exact point of the 1st amendment)... or not?
have foul-language barriers been put in place?
yes, i have been *heavily* testing things here since the beginning -- trying to figure-out "the rules"...
...what *are* the rules?
Be kind, please rewind. ππ
shareIf you could edit your post below with the phrase Fart-Knocker to remove the [ b ] + [ /b ] from around the smiling faces this thread would return to it's proper formatting layout until someone else duplicates what you have done.
Please note it is only because you have the expression within an already written expression that this is happening.
The thing is though, that I've used the bold on a previous thread and this did not happen.
But I will try this anyway. It's always glitchy on this site immediately after a site update.
It wasn't your fault, it seems that the site administrator needs to set expressions to be limited to the post they are written within. The code confused the server rendering the output with 2 [ /b ] being closed back-to-back which nullified the rules it is told to follow.
It all works for the moment it would seem.
Ok, I "unbolded" it and everything went back to normal. Then I "rebolded" it and now it's only my comment that's bold. π
shareBeforehand you had [ b] Fart-Knocker [ b] ππ [ /b] [ /b ] which confused the system.
Now you have [ b ] Fart-Knocker [ /b ] ππ which the system can deal with.
The site administrator will limit expressions to a per post basis when they have the time I'm sure.
Fart-Knocker ππ
shareWilson, the rule is if you're going to be annoying, take it to Soapbox, Watercooler or Sandbox.
Or combine Sandbox and Watercooler and make your own sand castle and stop being a pest.
Why are the posts showing up as bold?
shareI made mine bold on purpose. Now it seems everything beneath my post is coming out bold LMAO!! It's probably just a glitch. They seem to always happen after a site update.
sharethis is why i am doing my best to help test/push things as of late.
from foul language to stupidly redundant posts...
nothing personal β just pushing the envelope β yet only trying to help this site succeed beyond expectation.
who in your god's name is "wilson"?
shareSorry for interrupting your conversation flow here, I am testing to see if anyone can reply to this post now without[/b] their posts being [b]in bold[/b] to prove a theory I have set out to the user who earlier wrote [b]Fart-Knockers[b][/b].

shareThanks for posting. It would seem that the issue I thought it was has been resolved or I was wrong in my understanding of what the issue was.
Seems solved at least, thank you again for trying to help me decipher the problem.
All I can say again is that whenever Jim (the site owner) makes a site update with new features, the site becomes glitchy for a day or so afterwards. And he made a site update about 15 hours ago so as usual, the site is throwing some glitches our way. I've been here since I believe week one and this is what's been happening from the beginning. Things will calm down in a day or two. It always happens this way. π

Wilson is the main character in the movie Cast Away. It's a ball. Oh, and the movie also has Tom Hanks as a FedEx guy. A pretty fun movie if you asked me, even though it was a rip-off of another movie called Robinson Crusoe.
But I don't quite understand what all of that has to do with this convo tho...
WIIIIIIIILSON!!!! ππππ

shareIt's unreal how good Tom played that scene. I cried the first time I saw it. Cried... over a ball...
π’π’π’π’
i saw it when it was released... the reference in this thread is ho-hum.
"castaway" is fucked-up because all it shows (basically) is "the passing of time"... and then the results of having spent so much time... alone.
it rarely, if ever, touches on the personal challenges leading-up to the "portrayed results".
but you know: cool plane crash -- woohoo!!!
Hey, to think about that.. Cast Away is basically a more realistic version of Passengers.
shareI think anything goes

Rules?? In a knife fight??
π
one is not allowed to insult an opponent in a knife fight!!!
shareDon't ever bring a gun to a knife fightπ

And don't ever bring a knife to a gun fight.
Although the boys on Myth Busters did a piece on that. In certain situations and at certain distances, a knife can be more deadly than a gun.
Case in point: the final scene in Prizzi's Honor.
