messages that drive me nuts and make me give up using the site

Quote

You have posted a message with more emoticons that this board allows. Please reduce the number of emoticons you've added to the message

Screw that! you can never have to many
smiley nazis
deriously though, on a really long long long post there may be a fair few and it wouldnt look crowded with them so its a pain to trim them out.
copy pasting my progess thread took half an hour due to this, debated scrapping it and not bothering.

You are perfectly correct with your constructive criticism, as to whether it can be changed only one person will know.

Paul_s what do you reckon?

You're not posting enough. Go on big boy, give me all you've got . . .

Curry and sex tonight?

When I'm already busy . . . Now that's annoying.


I'm surprised you're not more annoyed by messages like that, Husky. Although maybe you need to post a bit more on here first, before you reach - let's say - the BUPA level of care experience.

I know, I know.

Wait until you've made a few more posts, and perhaps joined as a full member, maybe then you might know though . . . Maybe.

Sorry, it was a reference to an old (Chubby Brown, I think) joke:

". . . you're not a member of BUPA, are you?!"

[mattsps]

I thought I had some messed up S>>t in my head. I have no idea what this is all about other than smilies and membership to bupa

[andymc]

[bobby]

take a s***...try again after 20 seconds


what?

[Dunkey]

I have no idea what people are going on about now


Simple:

There is a limit on smiling.
There is a limit on the speed you can use the forum.
This thread has become seriously confused.
It's an even split between curry and chippy, come on chippy!!



No one's managed to explain why i need paid membership yet but thats for another thread im sure

Let's add something else to confuse some of you into the mix: bypasses. Admittedly sense of humour ones, that some of you seem to have been subject to . . . (and, speaking of annoyances, note the correct use and spelling of "to" in that sentence)

I'll tell you what does drive me nuts now though. Having just voted, and made it 3-0-2, why it says 6 votes have been cast. And I always though computers were reliable whewn it came to maths.

other people missing the joke makes it more enjoyable for those who get it

And thats only one type of bypass... unless the plural refers to the multiple people

Agreed; and

Agreed, it did.


Phew, thank heavens for that. The humour in my first post obviously went down like a lead balloon; to explain it I think would be like adding more ballast.


If you ask nicely I might share the BUPA joke with you, but the full unadulterated version may necessitate it being after the watershed. Although I only used it as an analogy for the benefits that membership on here can bring, so to speak.
