  1. "and what not"It just seems really effeminate to me. When I hear a grown man say it, I instantly think "sissy boy".In fairness, the first man I heard say it was a huge sissy boy and it may have just stuck with me.Another one is "idiot". This word is so over used in online poker. Every time I read a player call another an idiot in chat, I label that person a sub-par player because a decent player doesn't tap the tank.

  2. I want inI was away for a few days and we didnt have land line telephones, much less internet capabilities, in the cabin.I guess I can play the next one, but I too wish it wasnt determined by who just happened to be in general during a 15 hour period.I guess now I'll go search for the other thread you said that I have to sign up as an alternative.Great idea for a tourney. But maybe next time it can be thought through a little more and realize that not everyone who has been a member for a while, is on here every single day. Not whining, but 81 seems like a small number. I realize if it was more people it would take a lot longer. But maybe that is a good reason for the next time to change the format.My two cents

  3. Whining about it isn't gonna change anything. If you don't like it, don't bother posting. I don't care if you don't like it, I also don't care if a few people don't like it.
    A little advise, if I may.............First off, KDawg, congrats on becoming a moderator. You don't have to apologize for wanting to be one. Many posters here tossed their hat in the ring and you were chosen. Don't be embarrassed about campaigning for it.8000 posts in 10 months proves your loyalty to Daniel's forum, if nothing else.As a moderator though, it is critical that you remain above the chaos. Making comments, as the ones above, just belittles what a moderator is here to do. I understand that it is on the job training, so to speak.But, telling people if they don't like it, leave or correcting yourself and saying you meant to say its a persons perogative if they wish to stay and post, is not what Daniel intended a moderator to be, in my humble opinion.Your passion for making the forum better is great, but as a moderator, you must be careful on how you deliver your message. Getting into arguements or telling people not to post if they don't like it would never be something Daniel intended his moderators would do if they wished to keep their positionJust try to stay above the criticism without it being a personal attack on yourself. Look at it as a work in progress.
  4. I don't really have a problem with new posters and some of the retarded threads they start, but if he really wanted to reward original members with special prizes and giveaways and stuff liek that, how does opening up charter membership to any new poster really accomplish that goal?
    so, it's not enough that DN is kind enough to offer us special prizes and giveaways? You want him to only offer them to certain people? Rather selfish, no?
    No, I don't want to come off as ungrateful for what he's doing because I'm not, and i'm not gonna reread his blog about the charter membership but I thought it mentioned he wanted to do something for his loyal posters and members of this site so he was doing the charter membership. I don't think this whole plan is the best way to go about rewarding old posters. If I'm wrong and he didn't say that, then my bad but I was just questioning the method. I think it's a cool idea and very generous on his part and I really have no problem with new posters at this site.
    "It’s important to me, though, that those of you who have been FCPers all along get special benefits when it comes to promotions and things of that nature." thats what DN said. so you are right, this charter membership doesnt work very well for that. but what can you do? i dont think anyone should feel they deserve something special for posting on a forum a lot.they should do it by join date though. like everyone who signed up before April 26th should get special stuff.
    I totally agree
  5. how does opening up charter membership to any new poster really accomplish that goal?
    Man, when your mommas told you that you were special, you really took it to heart, didn't yasw
    Hahahhahahaha... Man that was a good one.... But it wasent.
    Wasn't meant to be funny ha ha..it was meant to point out that it is silly and without a shed of class to whine about not getting presents from Santa (Daniel) for being at his forum a few months longer than a newb.Not trying to be a jerk, but I call em as I see em.....by the way, spellcheck is free
  6. Why do they always feel that they have to start a thread to have their questions answered? Doesn't anybody lurk anymore just to get a basic feel for how the site works before they barge right in to annoy the general populous of this forum?
    I agree with this completely. That is what I did, lurked then joined. Sounds like those are the rules to any forum.
    They will get the hang of it even without being flamed for not knowing all that you know about proper forum procedures
    I agree with this too, but we (newbies), will learn faster if we want to avoid being flamed
    Ya, maybe I'm wrong. How on earth could telling a newb that Daniel probably won't respond to his message because we also have tried and he is way too busy to be counted on as a consistant poster here..Geez, that would never work.Its much better to scare em into submission. And more fun too..right? (sw) :lol:It sounds like an initiation process to a boys club instead of an adult forum about pokerJust my two cents .........Turd is still okay in my book...I know he didn't mean any harm..just not sure the OP knew

    I feel soooo bad about making the above comments.
    Your right, I was way out of line, I sincerely apologize to all I have offended. May rats make nests out of my eyes.
    Well said. Carry on.
    You're so sexy when you're annoyed.
    :wink: Not annoyed You're okay in my book Turd. Just some free time on my hands and thought I would shadow box with ya.You're my favorite Turd :club:

    Well said.
    Your right Captn, I was way out of line, I would like to take this time to sincerely apologize to all I have offended. May rats make nests out of my eyes.
    Well said. Carry on.

    Maybe after being a member 2 whole months, as you have grasshopper, he will see the error of his ways (sw)Relax, their questions don't hurt anyone and if they seem silly or uninformed, to belittle them only makes you appear like you take this whole thing way to serious, or was bullied as a kid and this is your payback.They will get the hang of it even without being flamed for not knowing all that you know about proper forum procedures.Not being mean or anything, but the OP is new and there are better ways to go about it than to tell him he annoys you Don't be a turd, Turd :club:
  10. I know this is obvious, but I thought I would post it anyway.........Daniel wrote in his Journal today the following about what he had to do before the party:
    "and most importantly I have to shop for my costume.I already know what I need:-A black curly mullet wig-tight white jeans-pointy white boots-about 10 fake gold necklacesEverything else I'll need for the costume, I already have... baby!"
    Does anyone have a doubt that he is going as:Scotty Nguyenwho he does a dead on impression of ....Wish it was on tape
    You are a pretty perceptive person. :roll:
    LOLAnd you skeeter, are a douche
  11. Everyone here knew who it was already, the reference doesnt exactly go over our heads. :roll: :roll: :roll:
    Boy, don't I feel sillywish I would have wrote that I knew it was obvious, but I was going to post it anyway because I would love to see Daniel's costume.Man, If I could just have it all to do over againAnd for the record, I didn't even hint that I thought it was going over anyone's head.Chip on shoulder much?

  13. I was talking to several site about a wide variety of possibilities.  The path that I've decided to take is totally awesome, but I can't reveal it just yet.  You will all know soon enough and I can absolutely guarantee that it will make all the FCPers happy.
    In case anyone missed it, DN said in the chat yesterday that he would have a "BIG" announcement on November 1st.Thats November. 1st. Next Tuesday. November 1st.
    A FCP Poker Room? YESWill the site be a skin of another poker room? YESHuge Referral Bonuses for FCPer's? YESLinked with STACKED? YESAm I in a position to know all of this to be true? NO
