Oh ffs...

DISCUSS THE EZINE:

I don't really read it very thoroughly because there's not really anything of interest in it for me. I don't use programs, I know what is and isn't tolerated on Codex and I'm not really particularly interested in other people's reviews of films. tongue.gif I missed Michie's member spotlight feature.

That wasn't nearly patronising enough. Where was my eyeroll? You'd best buck up or I'll start editting your posts angry.gif

Thanks to everyone that explained, my mind partially shuts down after 1am or so, blame Ali for my still being awake sad.gif.

Anyway censorship was carried out because the flaw your post contained upset a member it was aimed at and they acted as members should when that's the case, your pointing out of the flaw was deemed unnecessary so it was removed, though I will admit both myself and Alex were very unsure about what to do with it because the flaw pointed out was done so in a manner we considered rather mild. In saying that though, we used our amazing intuitive techniques to predict that taking this course of action would lead to less repercussions.

Though I may just have messed that up because I'm not going to remove your other post as requested as it was vague and most certainly not worth it. However, to maintain that level of vague-ness, I request this be taken to PM if you wish to discuss it futher, that goes to anyone involved.

No need to talk to you in a patronizing manner. tongue.gif You'll get one eventually, have no fear.

Oh boo hoo. A particular member got all wound up about something like that? 1we8.gif What a baby. tongue.gif tongue.gif

Last time I was vague a particular staff member got sand in his vagina. blink.gif Why are you so different? tongue.gif

Why would we bitch? You're perfectly entitled to post whatever you want, wherever you want, as long as it's not against the rules and you don't take it to extremes. Just use your disgression.


I know what i'm entitled to post, doesn't mean because i followed the rules people wont bitch. And since people love making 'lil digs at me these days i figured it'd be like some kinda pay day for them.

Oh we're giving in? This makes me sad.

Mmk. My talking about the ezine then:

It was enjoyable, I read about half of Ash's thing of LPC and got to know bits about it's starting off that I didn't already know, I'd already read Tyler's what's not tolerated on codex article (oh the perks of being mod) so I didn't read that again but it was easy to read when I did and I'm sure remained as such. I also read Tyler's other article and I thought the collection of SotW's was lovely, especially that 'Aether' one, whoever did that was a genious.

However I would have to say that mostly it wasn't really my thing, like Ali I'm not very interested in programs (though as I've said in ezine chat I certainly know where to go if I ever do want to know about programs, Oaken seems to have done a damned good job on his articles.) I scrolled down the film titles and as none of the films particularly interested me anyway I chose not to read the review I'm afraid, which is nothing against the quality of the article, simply personal preference.

I was also uspet to see absolutely no mention of my resign, my avid fans will be left wondering what's happened to me and god forbid the people that hate me think I've died or something and stop bitching sad.gif.

Fair enough. Completely up to you. We're talking about the ezine now anyway.

Edit: Curse you Hawk and Tyler, messing up my merge!

STOP NOT DISCUSSING THE E-ZINE.


I've just checked what else was in the e-zine. tongue.gif I know how Codex is funded, I've witnessed a lot of the LPC stuff and don't really care about it and I know who wins SOTWs because I see the topics. tongue.gif I think if you keep up with current events on Codex, quite a lot of the e-zine becomes hugely irrelevant. wacko.gif Maybe that's just to me though. *Shrugs* Still, good work guys!

I was surprised at that as well to be honest tongue.gif. I thought Alex might have included something at the start in his little intro to the E-Zine.

Didn't even see this o-o.

Awwh but I was hoping to get one whilst it was all jokes, I don't want the sting of a real one! tongue.gif

You're entitled to believe that as much as the particular member is entitled to be wound up about it. One person's baby is another one's reasonably upset man/woman tongue.gif.

I don't know why I'm so different but I certainly hope it's not in a bad way tongue.gif. However, saying that, I've already said once if you wanted to continue vague discussion to do it via PM, and while I realise that half of the appeal to this discussion for you is probably the very fact that it's public, it can't continue, to save the report inbox from being raped if nothing else tongue.gif. Anything else on the matter and I shall have to invisie sad.gif. Consistancy and carrying out threats and all that tongue.gif.

Thank you for checking for me Ali, I realised I'd read another article by Tyler but I was rather embarrassed because I couldn't remember what it was! Just too much good material in that ezine, can't keep it all in my head! Anyway, upon reading Tyler's article I thought to myself how it was good, I hadn't appreciated that the adverts gained codex so much money and I liked the writing device he used when he said one set of adverts got $65 every three months and one set got $20 every month, which we all know basically adds up to the same thing, but it keeps it interesting from a literary perspective! Imagine happy.gif. I was also surprised at his suggestion that Hydrogen might keep some pocket money, I thought to myself about the controversy that might have started I did! But then I realised Tyler is one to stray onto the dark side of ezine-articles, did you catch the one last issue? Slagging off other Neopet cheating sites? Oooh the cheek! Does make me giggle I say. However, shant talk about it anymore, that's off-topic, this is issue #4 afterall, not #3.

Oh I know tongue.gif. It's actually why I thought 'heck!' at the suggestion because while I'm sure Tyler intended it as a joke anyway, some people might take it literally and be all 'wth!?' and drama would ensue. However the drama in this topic appears to be completely unrelated, how wrong was I?
