I think Bert should just lock this thread. Let's see if this guy posts anything. I'm pretty sure he's a farce just here to rile it up.

Money talks Angel. We'll await your script. Better be fecking gold.

I predict it will be the new "Frostbite".

Angel of Death for Grand Poobah of Simply Scripts!

Or maybe we should all do a colab of Angel's adventures in bounty hunting, Navy Sealing, Iron Man triumphs, and of course, those elusive black belts he wears every day.

That's right, baby.  Toughest guy on this board is the one with the delete key.

Try and kung-fu that, if you will.

I am not ready to lock it yet, though.  Whatever keeps the natives happy.

Another mod can clean this out if it gets too ugly -- I gotta get outta here now.  Big day tomorrow.

But I will clean out that Fade to White thread if it turns into a big pissing contest.  Keep it on this thread.

Wow.  Is this how you treat everyone with a question?  Or just newcomers?

If Dreamscale isn't happy you just flip on a guy?  WTF?

Don't freak out! We like new people. We've just seen this happen over and over. Relax. We're all here to help each other....now if you could just send me a pic of yourself....

Seriously, read scripts. Comment on them. Submit a script and you will receive comments.

Heh -- still here for a few minutes.  I lied.

We do try to keep things civil, Angel -- and this thread has now devolved into nothing but chest thumping -- with your question asked and answered.

Has absolutely nothing to do with how I may or may not feel about Jeff.

Has everything to do with the fact that people should be reading scripts instead of flashing their shiny, moonlit asses at one another.

Angel,
If you were here for more than a day, you would understand Bert.

Or anyone here for that matter.

Lighten up man. Or your stay here will not gain you anything other than attention.

And it will be short lived.

You delete another one of my posts and I shall send you one via Email. You'll open it... and never be the same.

It seems I've upset just about everyone.  Which answers my question as to whether or not I want to be here.

The idea that the more posts you do (which apparently have to live up to Dreamscales standards) is kind of a turn off.

So I'll be going...make sure to tell everyone here you verbally pummeled me into submission.  Dreamscale will no doubt regale you with a similar story in which his keen wit and razor-sharp insight cut me to ribbons.  He's so dashing, isn't he?

For those of you that were actually interested in what I was asking and not but hurt by a simple question...I wish you luck.

Soooooo....

You don't have anything to give to this site?

You just piss on people and give a farewell?

39 post and all them useless attacks. It was you who came in pummeling.

I will give anyone here 3 to 5 odds, this guy either was a former poster or is a teenager.

Do agree about McKee's Story. Need to revisit that one.

Sigh...

I do wish we'd stop driving people away who actually want to contribute. It wouldn't hurt to have some new blood around here, especially new blood that can stand up for itself (which is increasingly becoming a requirement for SS duty).

Angel, you've been abrasive. As an introduction, it wasn't great. Jeff, you've made your point. Shaun, Jeff doesn't need you to stand up for him.

Let's shake and move on, yeah?


Guess who's back? Back again?

I don't think anyone is driving anyone else away.  However, lately we have had a couple of people come in who think it's their duty to tell us how the site *should* be.   And it's all well and fine to have and express an opinion but then you gotta accept that other people aren't going to agree.  These new fellas didn't seem to be able to do that.

It's unfortunate but that's the way it is.

I was trying to be friendly and give advice on what to do here to get the most out of the site.

I do think too many new people have started out kind of wrong and end up leaving. Which is a shame.

JonnyBoy

My muddy friend, If I can ask you what contribution was made by Angel?

Have you ever been in a group of people and in that group, one person made it a point to try and make themselves the center of attention? Don't we see it all of the time now on TV?

I myself welcome any input no matter the uproar. I have been in the middle of a few of those arguments.

Maybe this person should take a day off, regroup, and perhaps approach this as an opportunity to gain something.

Nobody here (in my opinion) wants to scrap with one another over nothing.

As for me sticking up for Jeff, I don't have to. Trust me, Jeff has proven ten fold he can stick up for himself. I simply wanted to assure this Angel person that others are watching and simply feel that his one day opinion may be a bit hasty.
