Did You know???

Post by angvav »

Did You know???

Coney Island is a peninsula.

It was an island.

It was was neglected for some time after World War 2.

It is in Brooklyn, New York City, USA, with a beach on the Atlantic Ocean.

And DO YOU KNOW why I want to know what the hell was up with that response? He posted a few facts about Coney Island and a link to an article about Coney on Wikipedia. One of those facts was something that people genuinely may not know, that it was an island but was made into a peninsula. Sure, this wasn't the single best post in the history of humanity, but nothing deserving a response like that. As far as I'm concerned, as compared to a lot of newbies, angvav is doing a pretty damn good job.

So chill out.

Did you know that he's set to Australian time and thus he is only making five posts per day? I already checked that out. Also, that first bit was uncalled for.

I have no idea why everyone in this thread feels like hating on this guy for no reason, and I'm not standing for it. You've both been here a long time and you both know better. I could sort of understand if he were breaking the rules or it were an exceptionally bad post, but even then, you leave it for the mods. In this case, it was a not great, but decent post which violated no rules. It pointed out that Coney Island is not an island, but a peninsula, which is an interesting bit of trivia. According to my search-fu, this has not been brought up in over a year in any thread.

I'm not going to sit here and watch a bunch of older members bully a new blood for no reason that I can see.

Hey GR99 I want to respond to this post and your post above. I'm just back after about 8 days.
So, I don't REALLY know why my First Post made you give me that answer, Believe me.
Yeah, this is Proving Grounds, but sometime I think People don't JUST read the last posts (ok, 5 years posts) before posting.
I mean, a lot of IDENTICAL posts... new but old... and you know what I mean.
Anyway, WHAT I KNOW IS: I didn't want to "bully" a new blood, That's for Sure, and you know.
I'm just trying to give my Best to the Site/Forum, do you rem that story about the "Mods Button"?
Now, if we (I mean, who is not a Mod) cannot tell anything (this is what I'm just guessing)... OK, my answer is the same: THE MODS BUTTON WILL BE MY BEST FRIEND.
No Problem.

PS: I don't JUST think angvav is not a good member.

Swan,

You've given me some favorable responses to a few of my posts and I appreciate the encouragement, but I gotta tell ya:  If I understood your last statement correctly, you were saying that you don't think angvav is a good member.  This guy's only been on here for 2 weeks.  He's probably still looking for his niche.  Give him a break.  We've got a moderator (GramercyRiff99) who says angvav's doing good.

Hi everyone :)

Thank you for the nice comment canyoucount :)

I very much appreciate it :)

Even though you didn't have to :)

Just to clear the air everyone, I know my post is not the best you'd ever see.

It does burn people's eyes out. But the only reason I wrote this post is because it is trivia in relation to the film. Nothing more.

Just because my post is an awful one. Yeah more than awful, it doesn't mean that I am awful to, so I hope everyone understands that. And I'm judging or or assuming here, so please don't thinkk that :)

Only time will tell everyone that :)

No... No... No... canyoucount and angvav you've just misunderstood me!!! :roll:
In my post above I said: "PS: I don't JUST think angvav is not a good member."
Guys, in the common grammar (ALL OVER THE WORLD), a "double negative" is a "positive statement"... if you know what I mean.
So, what I wrote above, is the same for: "I just think angvav is a good member".
Come on guys we should "talk" about other "stuff" here...
... so again, maybe I didn't like angvav's topic... OK... but guys, are you kidding now? To me he can do very well too... who said he cannot???
See ya all!!! 8)

Ok Swan.  I stand corrected.  Sorry about that, guy.  
I did go back and re-read the statement before making my last post, but I guess I wasn't really paying att'n.

Until we bump into each other in another thread, keep on boppin', dude!

Hi minfreak :)

Thanks heaps for the nice comment :)

I appreciate it :)

Your a champ!

Swan.

I do not mean ill well when I say this.

I don't know you. You don't know me.

And I do not know why you have reacted the way you have towards my post.

And do not go saying that I have mistook what you have said.

That looks like your assuming to me. And if so, it is wrong.

I am merely wandering why you have spoken to me the way you have.

Just because there is a newbie who does not know what they are doing and they write an awful post or repeat a post does not mean they should be treated any different to any other member.

And I am not saying you did that.

But why have you been saying things like no one answered me?

I do not care what you you say about my posts.

But please be nice about it.

You can say anything you want and not be misunderstood if your nice about it.

Because I am not so sure what you mean with some of the comments you have said.

Thank you for understanding.

:)

Ok, The Swan is the Monster and angvav is the victim.
angvav, tell me, are you maybe trying to profit from this story? It just seems a "tragedy". Come on... I didn't shoot you at all!!! 
I didn't like your topic, ok, but have you read I also think you can be a good member?
Why? Cause you always say: "OMG, why did you tell me those "terrific" words?"
Come on, I told you what I think, you did the same... let's stop it now...
Do you know how many people told me they don't like my topics? So? Ok...
You don't care about my opinion? Instead, I do care about everyone's. But it's OK.
I want to enjoy the Site in The Best Way... Now, we're wasting our time here... Good Luck.
See ya.

Listen up.

Do you undertsnad what I am saying?

Cause it does not look like it.

Do you get my point?

I said if you don't like my posts that is fine. Just be nice about what you say next time.

Thank you and you have good luck to and I do hope you understand me this time.

I never took what you said the wrong way. All I ask is that what ever you say, maybe reword them so people may not mistake what you say.

Thank you for the nice words at the end of your last reply and I hope we can use this site and let sleeping dogs lie.

This argument is confusing as hell and I'm not even sure what it's about or who is right/wrong, to be honest. Regardless, I'm hereby kindly requesting that you two stop it. You've both made your points (whatever they may be) and I don't see anything else constructive coming out of this.

Swan

I am sorry for debating a comment you have made about my post.

The only reason I did, was because I do not know you and was not sure what you had meant by a comment you had made about my post.

I did not take what you said the wrong way.

My post is bad and that is fine.

Despite what has been said, I have no problems or arguments what so ever.

Thank you for yourself saying that I would make a good member.

I've read your posts and you look like a good member yourself.

Kind regards,

angvav
