Lets vote. Do you think I'll get a vacation over there?

Technically he is a professional since he’s earned about $16,000 in the past year and a half.

That wouldn't pay for our club membership for a year.

Well that sure beats...ummm...it beats...errr...actually it beats zero. It's income I'd brag about at 16, but not at 19. I'd be embarrassed to be in his (used) shoes.

It's probably because everyone knows his shtick and he can't try to con the masses any more.

This ought to be a troll thread.

To start a thread asking if pissing moderators off in the CF (knowing they read here) would ban you for a few days.

If senior life is this boring, kill me now.

In the last 9 years, I've made about $1800 recycling metal, does that make me a "professional metal recycler"?

I think to be a "professional", you need to make a living at it. I know I can't live on the $200 or so per year I get recycling metal, and I'm pretty sure that Doug can't live on $10,000 per year, even if I believed he made that much, which I don't think I do.

It's trolling them, not any of us, so, yeah.

I'm right. Many here seem to enjoy stating and highlighting the obvious events that occur over there.

You posted something in the gray area, hoping to receive vacation time. Later, you planned to visit this forum to start a thread complaining about CumDog's bureaucratic behavior.

I realize links and such may not work but there is still a ton of info in these threads. The mod just says "start a new thread". Then why have a search function. Why not just delete the threads after a year? It just doesn't make sense.

Your premise is what doesn't make sense. Why do you have to post in an old thread instead of just reading it? Does the "ton of info" in the thread somehow get better/more informative if you bump it?

Will I get a vacation?
Yes or No

Impossible to predict - vacations depend entirely on the moderator's mood and are thus essentially random.

I noticed this too. He's got nothing these days. Not even worth going over there. The word 'subdued' fit his description. He replies to threads that aren't his own with the popcorn icon or a smile or whatever. No real participation, and certainly nothing interesting. Maybe he's on lithium or Thorazine.

Or, hear me out, maybe...just maybe more than just God stopped talking directly to him.

They're like this: They get done driving everyone out, destroying everything else in sight, then realize that they have nothing to show for it.

Post this over there !

I didn't post in it. I was reading it and got to the bottom only to realize it's closed. So C3 have been around since 1968. You're telling me that nothing in an older thread could help someone even if it was written in dial-up days?

And that's why I don't frequent there much anymore. I'm not a child and will not be treated like one from some internet idiot mod.

And the Barn is your chosen refuge?
