You mean I can just peruse the quotes? Hmm, you learn something new everyday!

BTD- I'm sorry, but you'll have to live with the consequences of your irresponsible posting.;):p

No- I was not sure who to ask. I am not aware of who is who-the list above was mostly news to me.

I wish it was so-


I also love the dismissal as if because it's a forum online it doesn't matter- as if we all do not know each other off line as well.

IIRC this happened to Nephy right after the quotes feature was introduced. I posted back then -- and still believe today -- that quoting someone with the intent to shame or mock is pretty un-swanky.

Really? Me? NA? €uro? Wendy? That's news to you? You could really think of no one to PM?

And still, no one's been informed of exactly what the offending quote is.

It was news to me, but yeah I would have PMed someone.

I'd never noticed (or have forgotten I'd previously noticed) that you're names are bold. And at the risk of speaking for her incorrectly, why would she have followed through with a request when she was told in this thread, essentially, to suck it?

This actually surprises me since I distinctly remember your name being in bold on MP and the mods' names being italicized (as they are here).

You never noticed that? I'm disappointed.

Perhaps not, but Neph has interacted with all 4 of those I mentioned in our capacities as administrators/moderators. She knows full well she could have contacted any of us via PM.

Anything we say here is able to be quoted. If it's quoted out of context, it's supposed to be funny. (There are plenty of quotes that I think aren't funny, or even interesting, but that's all subjective.) If you're not willing to be quoted out of context, don't say anything.

Ok, so here are the quotes that cite Neph:

Quote:

“ Um, if you are decapitated death will NOT be something we need to quibble about. ”
- Nephythys


“ One of the best stupid questions I ever heard-


"What season do deer turn into elk? ”
- Nephythys


“ The chicken and the egg are in bed.....the chicken is happily kickin back, light'n up and relaxed- the egg glares, rolls over huffily and says- 'well, I guess that answers THAT question!' ”
- Nephythys


“ So I guess I get to say JW was right. ”
- Nephythys


“ I am pretty liberal. ”
- Nephythys



“ Today boys and girls we are going to study.....
Barnacle penises!!! ”
- Nephythys
Hmm, from those, I'd guess it's the "I am pretty liberal" one (unless you have a serious problem with being seen as agreeing with JW). Soooo, you're saying the horribly offensive quote that you want taken down is the one saying you're pretty liberal.....which we all know is a joke and would never, ever believe to be true....and we're not supposed to be offended that you are so terribly offended by that joke? Plenty of us have been quoted out of context in saying things that are obviously not true or have a twisted meaning.

Seriously, if you can't take the joke...why do you enjoy visiting a place like this? I am totally mystified. :confused:

No- didn't cross my mind.

Look- no malice was intended- it was a simple question.

Heh-yeah, that.

..and I said I did not think of it.

You guys can try and see some intent that was not there- but it is just what it is.

It was not something I said-and it was not a joke.

I am also not offended, I am bothered that someone would choose a quote for no apparant reason other than to take a shot at someone-however oblique- it was clear to me.

I will send a PM- I will choose one who I think will look at it on an unbiased basis.
