I just noticed that I'm coming up on my two year anniversary here and wanted to see who really knows me.   ;)

NOW LEMME VOTE THE RIGHT WAY!  ;D

Or maybe.....just maybe, the fact that I only let you choose one shows that I'm a cunning slightly retarded and irresponsible fat housecat....

And the difference is?

A consensus means that all sides come to a compromise which they all agree on.  For example, in this case the whole group might get together and decide that I'm an idiot savant autistic, with an emphasis on the idiot part.  Once all the compromise was hammered out and there was a conclusion that everyone agreed on there would be a consensus.

Hey....I didn't know this thread was back  ;D

Sorry Bones.  I thought about putting that as an option, but worried about what I might do if it got the most votes.  I'm very susceptible to suggestion.

If you have to have it 'splained for you, it's no biggie.  To him it might be a shot, but in your version of reality, it'll be just a glancing blow ;D

shmokes, I felt it my duty since you went through all the trouble of finding/posting the link again to dredge it up and prove several people wrong....or right.....depending on how they're looking at it ;D

Hey, should this be in the Board Discussion Forum, since we're voting as a group on you, or should there be a "Rate a member" Forum created? ;D

LOL, I wondered if you'd seen that thread.  People are really riled up over there. 

God, this thing was hard to find.  I was doing searches for words like "Rate" and so on.  In the end I just had to page through all my posts for about a 4 month period.

Why not just do an advanced search and specify yourself as the author?

I had to look for something like that, and I ended up surprising myself that I used the word I used for a search term so often!

I'd tell you that yours was the right way to do it, but...you know.....
we both maintain a near constant belief that the other one is pretty wrongheaded.

You should do it my way ;D

Like I helped learn Zakk once, that's not crazy or OCD, that's just right! 
pssst, he's Canadian, so he needed a good learnin' anyway!

I did a search for shmokes as both the author and the search term, but it apparently only looks at the body and not subject headings so it didn't pull it up.  I couldn't leave the search term line blank -- wouldn't let me.  I ended up just going to my profile and showing all my posts and then paging through using the "find" function of firefox on each page to good effect.

All of us are not riled up.  you and I disagree on a direction and agree on flavored toothpicks, but that's it. 


-white supremesist shmokes critique
I was disapointed that smokes made light of our deliefs in the other thread.  Although his entire statement was true about black people  ruining arcades, I don't feel that he made a strong enough point of how they hurt society as a whole.  Why did he stop at arcades?  This was his chance to state all that is true.

The hooded wonders are dissapointed in shmokes, we vote "retarded" - another group we need to do away with.

(for those with a broken sarcasm detector - relax)

Its a good thing I read that other thread first because this comment taken out of context doesn't look right.
