I know it's locked now, but apers post here reminded me that I tried to suggest it days ago. Maybe I'm lock-happy.

Look it's simple, if you don't like what you're reading and you're not ready to clarify that then stop reading and don't post. You should take note that you haven't registered your annoyance because no one knows what you're annoyed about.

The same statement could be applied to many of the comments in this thread, Nina - including, I daresay, one or two of your own more oblique expostulations. If not being ready to clarify annoyance to the satisfaction of all others necessitates stopping reading/posting, then there's plentiful examples here and elsewhere of posters who shouldn't be reading/posting.

Oh my God, links to earlier Barbannoy pages. We have achieved Barbannouroboros.

Aren't they those things that grow like celeriac?

Today: People attempting to lower the Comics' standards of discussion. PAPERS SMASH! With, er, witty retort.

It is more like chasing tail. Then eating it.

I'm barbannoyed at myself. I should have taken a deep breath, forgot it and started the thread that I wanted to.

Or at least posted what I did in the snidey thread.

People attempting to lower the Comics' standards of discussion..

This'd be a doomed quest though, surely?

Distressing to see old threads bumped and whatever petulant/chirpy guff I had written in them pass before my eyes again. There is a lesson here, I'm sure.

I don't want Barbelith to be more like LJ -- sex lives and huggles.

This is just like like every other discussion group on the internet in that if you phrase your idea cleverly enough, in terms that are sufficiently popular with the group's main clique, it will confuse the regular boardies (not part of the clique but people who for want of a better existence watch the board all day long)

I actually just want to cry at this point.

Most likely for want of a better existence.

Oh God, where's that come from?

Mr. Morrison never responds to my posts.

Blake, where's that from?

Our Lady Has Left the Building

13:11 / 16.03.07

Yes, I'm not sure what's brought this on but at the moment I'm aware of this and this.

Evil Scientist

13:12 / 16.03.07

Mr. Morrison never responds to my posts.

I do so!

Jack Denfeld

13:13 / 16.03.07

I said Morrison, not Ellis.

MattShepherd: I WEDDED KALI!

13:14 / 16.03.07

Then you've missed this.

Er, that link meant for Our Lady. Morrison not involved in that thread at all (to my knowledge OMFG FICSUITS)

Jack Denfeld

13:20 / 16.03.07

I said Morrison, not Gaiman.

Quantum

Them's fightin' words where I come from.

I'll chime in on the 156-annoyfest. I just wrote a post directed to her in the Unacceptable thread, but of course it will be a few days before it's noticed if it ever is. In the meantime, watching the skies...

Princess

13:28 / 16.03.07

Oh goodness.
That's all rather not-good isn't it? Would it be far too patronising if I sent her a nice PM about Barbettiquette?

And I mean really nice, because I am good at politeness and stuff.

Jack Denfeld

13:31 / 16.03.07

Who was her sponsor? Are we still doing the reccomended by a current barbeloid thingie for applicants?

Spatula Clarke

13:34 / 16.03.07

I should fucking well hope not.

Why?

Princess, I think it would be a very nice thing if you sent her a PM.

ONLY NICE THINGS

14:01 / 16.03.07

Yes, we are. However, we are also letting people in if we can demonstrate their existence through reference to an institutional email address or through reference to other Internet presence. The rest is, unfortunately, Barbelith's problem.

Princess

14:09 / 16.03.07

Ok, give me a few days (have to go shopping for initiation cakes and ale (have I mentioned I'M EXCITED?!)now and then I've no connection till Sunday night) and it will be done.

Scarlet, if you're reading, I'm trying not to come across as condescending but I worry I might be anyway. If you don't want the PM then PM me and I'll not bother. If you do get it and it reads like a very pompous snarkpuss then try to see round my awkward style, please? It's a habit I've been finding it hard to get out of since quitting A-level. Because I was a god in that school. A GOD!

Regrettable Juvenilia

14:20 / 16.03.07

Princess, could you tone down the apologies and disclaimers and sweetness towards Scarlett 156 just a little? It's kinda Barbannoying.

Princess

14:37 / 16.03.07

Sorry to Barbannoy. But I'm just trying to deflect flame. I don't mind looking obseqious if it means we can get a proper discussion instead of an argument.

I'll try and tone it down though.

Quantum
