The Official Status Update Thread: Part 95 - Braveheart

Agreed. They don't think much about what they say. They don't really bother with checking themselves if they believe what they say. They are only concerned that YOU believe what they say, and that it somehow will affect you and justify their behavior. It's just bizarre IMO. Serious insecurity.

Fortunately I'm intelligent enough to know that race does not have anything to do with rudeness. I see all different attitudes from all different races. However there are people out there who would then be put off by anyone who is black because apparently "black people are rude". That's a terrible way to think. And this woman is (probably inadvertently) helping sway peoples' opinions that way. Sad

I was jesting (with respect to the previous comment only).
Awesome that you contacted Fenway. My guess is he was busy wrangling us noob moderators at that time... certainly worth a revisit, he's a pretty busy guy.

You're welcome to make him/the team aware that I'm willing and able if it's needed. I am happy to help but am not upset about not being a mod - so if I'm needed just let me know.

Either way I'm going to continue perusing INGO and taking part .

It is all to rare these days to find many who actually enjoy their jobs.

Good afternoon

I love the **** out of my job. Wouldn't have stuck around all these years if I didn't.

True.
I'd like to think anyone who witnesses her behavior would likely react the same as you and I. Sadly, there are people out there who may not. As mentioned prior, her children are especially susceptible.

That's the best part of 'the job'

I've worked in retail long enough to know that black people are rude, white people are rude, yellow people are rude, etc. I've also been around enough to know that black people are polite, white people are polite, and yellow people are polite.

I could just narrow it down to: People are rude, people are polite.

Yep, and it applies whether you're moderating or not which is why I'm not super concerned about it .

RnR, I really admire people who can keep it together while getting crapped on by customers. Good job!

Back when I was an admin for a gamers forum I only deleted the database once.

Whoops .

We keep hourly backups of our corporate site/forums so minimal data would be lost if you did that!

I have been blessed with the ability to insult you and make you feel like crap in the most polite way possible. I've also been blessed with quick wit and the ability to think and react on the fly. It's actually quite entertaining at times.

We backed up the night before and it was the following morning when I had my oops moment. I learned how to restore it too. It was a while before I lived that one down.

Well once it's been deleted, it's not there to delete again is it?

Ok that too

As I get older I find that I handle those situations better. If I can i'll just walk away. Sometimes it just isn't worth it.

I'm sure if it was I'd delete it again. I'm stubborn that way

My head is rather knucklular, so luckily for INGO, it is probably best that I cannot tinker with databases or the site data as a whole.

Goooood afternoon again INGO!!

Well, been cleaning house all day with the Mrs. It's finally starting to look decent.
