omg wtf my topic got moved to some troll country that noone ever posts in an i never got to reply to any of your replys. omg

so i will have to make a new thread to reply to my favourite posts,

here we have a nice chap named tethys who has taken time out from getting drunk and fighting people down at the local bar to reply to my message. unfortunatly he doesn't seem to know how to read and has taken what i said as a personal insult.

yada yada.....blah blah blah.....knew about for longer than you......etc etc

Have I summed it up correctly? Let's get one thing straight. I've loved Firefly since I read abou tit in the sci-fi premiere mag wayyyyyy back in early 2001. There are individuals here that became fans after the set cam out. I was one of those frothing at the mouth for the set to come out. They are no worse than I, I am no better than they as regards to fans because I actually watched FF with commercials.......

AND NEITHER ARE YOU!

And such, any new fffans that show up here after the BDM, I will welcome with open arms, the same as everyone else....including your trolly butt.

And so....get thee back under thy bridge.

then he tells me i am welcomed then he tells me to get under the bridge o dear i am so confused.

next we have someone by the name of caite,

Okay, well, I looked at the profile of the person who started this thread, and they only joined FFF.net TODAY! For someone who has been a fan so long and considers themselves high and mighty, that's pretty odd, dontcha think?

i am quite jealous of caite as she knows how to click on peoples profile, only a handful of people in the world know how to do this so it was nice of her to share the valuble imformation with the rest of us. i only hope one day she shares with me how she does it.

juko here has a self profesed stupid question

I've got a stupid question... how is sodomy considered a preventative measure?

i was going to say something like, unlike you most people dont like sodomy hence preventative.
but i won't say that as that would be mean and rude.

finaly someone who stayed on topic and said something smart

I have been a FF fan since back in the day. I get what all of you are saying about embacing any new lover of Serenity that happens to come along...However, I've got to admit that I'm a little reluctant to share my 'verse with a buncha wannabe's that show up on opening day. Who is going to believe me then, when I say "Yea, but I was there from the begining. It was me and my fellow browncoats who begged and pleaded and wept and prayed for the show, the dvd,s and ultimately the movie for which you are a johnny-come-lately." I am a shallow person I know. What can I say

you cant tell me none of you will feel like this, when the medias talking up the movie and everyone you know likles it youll be all like i knew about it way before you but noone will believe you or care. you will have no recognition because you failed to act now

auraptor like alot of people thinks i am joking

The custom for an April Fool's post is generally to post it on April 1st. Unless you were taken up by aliens and are experiencing 'lost time', it would be best for all of us if the Higher Powers would forward this thread over to Troll Country

I AM SEROIUS PEOPLE you cant just remove my stuff just because you dont like what i say. if you do that what the hell is the point of a forum, anyway have to go now

ndugu,

Your post was moved to Troll Country because ... well ... erm ... it was seen as trollish to all except the author.

The whole idea of trying to exclude folks from seeing our BDM and making sport of new fans is NOT the way for our Heros to become big stars and life in the 'verse as we know it to become a successful franchise.

Why would we try to stop folks from seeing our much anticipated BDM? We need those ticket dollars to ensure a 2nd and 3rd and up to 10th film. We need HUGE interest to perhaps get a new TV show.

By having your post out where new people might stumble across it, they could see themselves as unwelcome.

Why would we set ourselves to be seen as 'Ain't It Cool News' style snobs? We didn't create Firefly and we sure as hell don't have the moral authority to ridicule anyone not lucky enough to have caught it on Faux.

You are welcome here and we'd like you to stay; however, we'd prefer if you adopted a less Trollish stance.

You can look at profiles by clicking on the posters name at the top of each post.

May I give you some advice on how to be taken seriously?
I'm not trying to be mouthy, I'm just giving a suggestion.
Next time, type what you want to say into a word processor. Go over it with spell and grammer check. This will help your point come across much more clearly.
Also, ranting and raving in that style is very trollish. State your idea in a clear manner, and be respectful.
Leet speak - or whatever it is (e.g. OMG, WTF) hinders your ability to sound like someone we should take seriously.
Once again, I'm not trying to anger you or be mean. I'm trying to give you a few tools to begin a civil conversation about this topic.
Hope this helps.

Damn, ndugu. I really shouldn't reply to this.

Honestly, the title "ask ndugu" had me expecting some sort of troll advice column. Now that would be entertaining.

If you don't want to be taken as a troll, use both upper and lower case letters. I know you were told not to post in all caps, but they are useful if used properly. As is grammar. And spelling. And the proper use of quotations for that matter.

It's not about liking what you say, it's about how you say it. And actually, your stuff wasn't removed - it was moved.

(I know responding is only encouraging him/her, but this is just too easy, and I'm bored.)

you know what my favourite person on the internet is?

the person who points out spelling mistakes then acts like they burned you

as you might of guessed kellaina you are now my favourite member here, you can ask me advice if you want but if its about your weight be prepared for some harsh answers.

note i wasn't calling you fat, so don't get offended.

ps your wrong about the whole moved removed thing, if it was moved somewhere else it would of had to have been removed from the place it originaly was wouldn't it.

ndugu,

The response to kelliana was trollish and uncalled for. You asked. She answered.

Obviously, you aren't looking for help - you're only looking for attention.

You've answered your own question about why your stuff was moved.

Personally, I find it difficult to read many posts across many boards because of the horrendous spelling, lack of sentence structure and other "illiterate little kid" tip offs.

What she said. Type into a word processor. Drop the net speak. Lose the troll.

kellaina i apologise for my trollish post you arn't really my favourite poster and you can't ask me any questions.

also your right about the word processor even though it wasn't you who said it.

i will try and lose my trolling ways but that will be hard since i don't have microsoft word. but perhaps knibbler can go through my posts and edit them.

ps your correct about my last thread not being removed, it is still in general discussion i just can't seem to find it.

If it was removed then you wouldn't be able to find it at all! Would you now?
