As one of the newer members, I just want to say that I felt very welcome here from the first day. The people on the forum are like family now. **Hug**
Tsel, please tell your friend to come back. We value what he/she has to say! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

Hey, I never said I was leaving!
And I've been telling my friend to stay, but they are stubborn, stubborn, stubborn. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
I didn't start this thread to be another one of those past threads like Lews mentioned. (No offense meant to you Lews) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
My friend wasn't offended by anything prejudice or anything like that. They felt unwelcome because they got several chastising PM's sent to them directly. That's a whole different story than something posted. It was deliberately sent to them.
I think this forum is great!
But you all must admit negative personal PM's sent to someone directly is a bit unfriendly. True, maybe it was all taken out of context... However,example: How many of you have had a boyfriend, girlfriend, or spouse? How many times have they taken what you said out of context?
Again, hey, I'm not coming down on any one. I just care about those who I consider my friends.
And I would react the same exact way if it happened to any one of you. you = fellow Larians Yes, I really feel that way. You wanna fight me on it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" /> I don't know any of you personally, but I still like you all. Yes, even you Ube. (chuckle)
This is no nation thing. This is no prejudice thing. This is all of us together as friends thing. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/XmasJump.gif" alt="" />
Now I'm waiting for Jurak or Morbo to pop in with something. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" /> (I mean that in a humorous way)

None taken. I am just saying that I realize both A) Why the pm's were sent and B) Why they were taken offensive.
I hope this member comes back, they haven't posted in around a week, IIRC.
Oh, and BTW, Ub, do not ask if you are my friend.

Tsel, without a doubt u are the Thought Provocator. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
& yes, u're brave in bringing this issue out but i'm wondering if it helps, especially all these going-ons are shadowy in nature. we're talking about PMs & though we managed to console & convince the affected member of the forum, he/she are still as susceptible to the PMs. the only true course of effectiveness is either
1. take action by reporting it to Lynn, or 2. block the offending person's PM & ignore his/her future posts/PMs which might scath the affected member.
whatever it is, the affected member is the one who has the power to do something about this. the rest of us can only guess what's coming up (or not) next & speculate some more. other than that, we can promote general well-being of the forum but this underlying issue can't be tackled by us. at least not in conventional ways.
@ the affected member -> please know that at least i am on your side so don't leave, ok?

[color:"orange"] But why wouldn't you don't like to say it again, Stone? There's nothing but thruth in it. [/color]
Thank you, Seth <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> But i think i said this once or twice, in an other Form, before. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> And that is the reason i dont like to say it again <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
(OK, maybe one more Time if it is neccesary <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> )

We are currently in a time with nearly no new information, etc. . It's hard to came along when everything seems a bit dull & boring.
So we just invent our own things. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

It is spring's depression and lack of vitamines that causes many to act in frustration.
Let's eat more fruits and go out more often, this will help to stay in good mood.

It's probably up in sky/air on other continents too. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> But not everyone gets to see/enjoy it as much as others. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" /> in a way...

I think were barely pushed 40°C (104°F) in Melbourne. Normally we get up to 45°C (113°F) at least for a few days.

A pure Quebec northerner like me can't hear about weather without being interested and add something; even if it's <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" />. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
Here, these days, the temperature was exceptionally nice too: 6°C!!! and sunny!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/XmasJump.gif" alt="" />
But it won't last; this weekend, snow again. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspicion.gif" alt="" /> Easter always comes with a snowstorm... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" />
But you Australians won't see anything like that, and even won't think about it just a minute, eh? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" /> 30°C, a cool summer. Pfffffff.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Hi,
I'll start by saying this forum is a great place, and you are all great persons. I never posted on a regular basis, but I DO read most of the posts here quite often.
Lately, I've been reading a lot on the Guild Wars forums and I must say, this is by far a much better place. Most posts here are intelligent and fun to read. Also, the atmosphere is a lot more welcoming in here. The first time I posted on this forum, I got some nice and funny replies. On the Guild Wars Vault, I did 5 or so posts, and no one replied, no one bothered to welcome me because no one cares.
I know I always come and go, but everytime I came back here I never got the impression that I'm not welcome.
While I have no idea who you are talking about Tsel, I am quite sure I read some of his/her posts. In my opinion, everyone here gave a little something to make this place so friendly, and I don't want anyone to leave.
That's my thoughts on the subject. Maybe I'll post again soon, maybe not <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> but one thing's sure, even if you don't see me, I'm here. I am a ninja after all, like a shadow.

Some of the Guild Wars forums are nice, like the Guru ones.
But I agree this is a great community here.

Rythok, u're so bashful. maybe before anyone says hello, u've ran off into the shadows. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
anyway, i always prefer the other avatar that u use, not the new one which i recall u mentioned related to your ninja graduation.
so? who says nobody remembers u? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> i do! good to have u back. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />
