Yup, they had a conversation about rehabilitation exercises and then as he was going she said to him..... "I have a question to ask you" "Go ahead" he said "Are you coming back?" she asks He says................. "I'll be back!!""" LMAO
Okay, I need a break. I have tamed so many tiny bitsy verus. I think I may be crossed eyed. Sold the tads off and bred some more. These can sit for a little bc I am not ready to tame right now. *waves at everyone*
No Joking Here: You're truly serious, aren't you, skeeter? Sorry you & perhaps others don't like my attempts at humor, I really am. I adore puns & creative writing is a hobby of mine. Writing the adventures of Paddy was genuinely fun. Further, I thought all these pseudonyms & funny names in this forum gave a delightful anonymity to those postings. Many people here would not post if they had to use their actual names. Sorry I've offended anyone by reveling in humor & trying to keep my identity as private as virtually all of you. I honestly didn't know the rules of this forum or thread & I sincerely apologize. Give me the word, skeeter or anyone else for that matter, & I'm out of here. I played PF since September, by myself, & hadn't discovered this site or thread until recently. I can certainly do so again. What I cannot do is stay at the expense of my privacy which I value.
I selected those prior to seeing your post. When I looked at the nursery, these is onle a black muscus Veru.
I don't believe anyone asked you for your name or any personal information. It is normal to discuss where one lives bc there are people from all over the world. However, when someone asks you a direct question, instead of being a smart arse, it would be polite to either answer or say you don't feel comfortable. I asked because you were using French in your stories. I also was trying to make friendly conversation. This has nothing to do with privacy. There is a time for stories and a time for casual conversation. It came off as if you were only about your stories and it was getting tiresome.
OH, bc I sold them after you did not respond and sent you the blue aurum. So sorry. However I bred another batch but am too tired to inflate, tame and sell. Well curiosity may kill the cat! haha
Some unsolicited advice: So I don't know EXACTLY what went down here but I DO know that no one is FORCED to give up any information that they do not feel comfortable giving up. But if someone is being friendly then it is only polite to privately send a PM or something and explain you do not feel comfortable sharing that information. It seems that you gave out a lot of clues in your writing and posts to who you may be and where you are from that the natural response to that would be a direct question if you were French / French Canadian / Heritage - anything. So politely declining to answer the question instead of a smart alec response (and adding that Somewhere Else to your location instead of leaving it blank - unless you are just making a joke) that makes you come across as a biotch joke. Sorry to be blunt but that is how I see it from an outsider looking in on this. I think there can be a healthy balance here.
More advice It's best not to assume intent or tone. Plain text is often misconstrued in this regard where you read 'smart ass'--some one else might read scarcasm or humor or playfulness. Things can quickly get out of hand when peeps assume someone intent was not nice and vice versa. I worked too many years in text based field to ever assign negativity w/o pm'ing that person just because often I was wrong Of course not always but more often than I'd like to admit. Happy frogging and let's be friendly and careful. We don't want to set a bad example for the young'uns.
I just went into the neighborhood and then into the skeeter622 account and all I can see in the nursery are the eight eggs. There has to be some sort of delay which prevents everyone from seeing the current frogs. This is my guess.
So I'm selling off or gifting out all froglets. First come First serve. Ask in pm as too confusing otherwise for me then I'm off too seriously work on dex. Letting go of forgets is hard but it must be done and I see it as an existential exercise for my OCD issues. Lol. Anxiety be danged and let the froglets freeeeeee. All request must be done by midnight tomorrow as my patience will not go longer and there's no gaurrantee it will last that long so hurry with request for any of the habs or nursery.
Imho... I think that if you are coming to a "trading" thread the natural response would mean usually sticking to a group of people that you feel comfortable with, that is why often some get upset when someone only shows up when they need something. Anyhow I can understand wanting to keep privacy, but if you want to be part of the group their should be some sort of understanding! After all these are people and they have feelings too. That's not to say that the jokes and stories aren't fun, but not all the time. Just my opinion.
Ack! I'm gone one afternoon/evening and all hell breaks loose! First Paddy got fried (ewwwww!) and then fights! I send big hugs to all. Is Dean back? I've gotten some frogs from her and don't know if she is playing or emptying her habs. I agree with the delay. I was trying to follow what BW said she was doing in her habs and what I saw didn't match up so I figured there must be some kind of lag with the servers. Ok for you people dexing verus and mags- this is what I have that will be available in the next hour: Red tingo magus Blue aurum veru Maroon aurum veru Maroon bruna veru Marine pruni veru Will any of these help you guys?
Thank you for the advice everyone. Sorry if I over reacted. NEG got it head on. The people on here who are regulars have a bond. I was trying to make friendly convo after reading the story with a ton of "French" including your (Lisianne's sig. ). The response, again in story format, felt rude. Anyway, back to frogs.
