Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

General BS forum I guess anything is fair game in here. Just watch the subject matter doesn't get carried away too much. |

Like the "insulting everyones intelligence" comment, EVERYONE is not finding any of these comments as an insult to their intelligence. if anyone is finding it an insult to their intelligence, its you. Therefore the correct terminology would be "MY", not everyone. if they did, im sure they would voice it themselves rather than have you do it for them. hopefully you're getting the gist of this.
If it were EVERYONE, we would be flooded with people here agreeing with you in these types of threads, unfortunately I have not seen a one.
Again, Im glad we can talk civily, I hope you can move past these matters, drop a bit of the paranoia, and move onto your goal of becoming a "good guy" and crawl up from that bad rep you took on in your earlier posts here... ttyl

Oh im sorry i meant to say Everyone outside of the Hell forum
Hows it going in there BTW?
I also am glad for this civil discussion
It makes for a better understanding of eachother no?
I think you see that im trying a new approach to uncivil post directed at me
However since this thread has gone way off topic
Has it opened the door for me to give some freindly critism?

Anyway, you asked if giving something away makes you a good guy. IMO the question is not that simple.
If I spend 2,000 hours a year in the office working for free, because I believe in what that company is doing, and want to make a company succeed, that would make me a good guy.
If I spend 2,000 hours a year in the office working, and I do it because I expect a paycheck for doing so, it does not make me a good guy... it makes me an employee.
By the same token, if you are giving away free stuff because you think the end result is that it will earn you a reputation as a good guy, that disqualifies the action as "good."
Good actions are things that one does for the sake of good, not because they think they will get a reward for it.
Yes, good people will do good things for rewards. But bad people will do good things for rewards, too. This is not an adequate way to delineate between good and bad. :scatter:

If i could give you good karma i would have!
I think what you are saying is right
However I am not sure that you understand my motive
I only wanted a gg thread because i wanted everyone to see the big picture
and not a slanted veiw of me
Which is not money oriented

That's a pretty good analogy for this situation Chris.
Dennis,
I hope that you're hearing what Chris is saying. He's given you some good advice which, if heeded, will go a long way to helping you repair your reputation around here.
