C'mon, join in the fun! Dont worry about they why's, just party! (virtually, of course, though you are welcome to party in RL if it strikes your fancy)
P.s. You were a little condescending, but not enough to warrant Tristan's ranting. I think he's just a touch crotchety on acount of some sand in his privates.
River gives Reaverman A kiss for the road, pops the smore into her greedy mouth and runs for the hills...

*Bursts out of the fire where she was sleeping*
Wow, y'all have been busy!
*wanders over to melted s'more fixins*
Ooooooh, good! There's still some left!
*scoops marshmallow over a huge grahm cracker, pours melted chocolate on top*
Did someone say there was fruit and whipped cream, too?
*licking chocolate off her arm, PhoenixRose wanders over to fruit buffet, holding one of her mangos*
Yums!
*throws fruit into one of the handy baskets for a quick fruit salad, topping it all off with whipped cream peaks*
Glad to see we have some new faces.
*River6213 trots past towards the restroom*
Hi River!
Hi Copilot! Good to see you! Missed you round here.
*sits on a burning log to enjoy her creamy fruit*

River, if those are your feelings, so be it, but a not-so-subtle dig on the merits of herd behavior is not necessary. The mere fact that you are here, on FFF.net, and posting, means you are also following the herd mentality. Yes, humans are social animals; especially in humorous situations. The Right Stuff "attacked" us, and we responded. He left, and we are still here, enjoying the virtual company of others using a title he used against us. Do you consider yourself a Browncoat? This works the same way.
I know there are many people on this board that think highly of you, and worry about you when you "go off". I do not know you, and I have not been here long enough to have witnessed some of your "funny" moments. There are many annoying people on this board, and I try to ignore many of them, but every now and then, something gets my hackles up and I must respond.
To the others, flame me if you must, but I had to say something.
Holding until you get back, Captain.
Oh no, I don't mind. I like when people speak their mind even though it hurts sometimes. Your post didn't hurt at all, and yes, I'm on this board as much as the next person, so I too have some social behaviors intact.
Some people think highly of me? That’s a new one! I pity them. Anyway, I was just confused as to why being The Forsaken was such a big deal. I read the whole thread that TheRightStuff made and he just came off as laughable...I don't think the guy was serious at all, and Its strange you guys didn’t see it that way, but it did provide an opportunity for group bonding for all of you, which I think was TheRightStuff's mission all along. I think it was a thread for good old fashion fun.
I could be wrong in all of this and I suspect I am, but the whole thing is kinda confusing. Thanks for responding to my post.
River
P.S. I loved when TheRightStuff said to Pirate News: "You tell the biggest and longest lies of all!!!" LOL!
River, I don't think anyone took that original thread seriously, or this one either. It's just a bit of fun. An excuse to enjoy ourselves with a bit of fantasy.
But your reaction really spoils my fun and that upsets me. It's like the time when I was watching Serenity with the commentary on and jumping around with amusement and excitement over something Joss had said and my mother came in and said in a concerned and confused voice. "You do know it's just a movie?"
Her disapproval and condescention really spoilt things for me. I of course tried to shrug it off with the thought that not everyone has to 'get' me, but the moment had been broken and I couldn't get back that high.
It's the same here. Just because you don't understand the fun we're having, please don't try to spoil it for the rest of us.

Neither ranting nor crotchety, just a little tired of River. I have gotten it out of my system now, so let's enjoy the beer and s'mores...on second thought, that may not be the best mix of foodstuffs.
Whiskey. Now there's a drink that goes good with s'mores!
Holding until you get back, Captain.
Tristan, I thought your responses were both eloquent and appropraite. You voiced my own feelings of annoyance at being patronised. I am yet to be over it as I'm still catching up on this thread before heading out to work but I'll try to be all happy and shiny again by tonight.

Thank you, Emma.
I will keep an eye out for your return!

What you are seeing here River is people having fun with the absurd.
It is funny, and we are enjoying it.
Much as we enjoyed your rampage last week.
So worry not when fun is being had.
I am on The List. We are The Forsaken and we aim to burn!

More insane ramblings by the people who brought you beeeer milkshakes!

I think I'm still naked from when we were in the woods.
But FMF is pretty strangely dressed . . .

I go away for a few days and all hell breaks loose in the land of THE FORSAKEN.
WTF?
PhoenixRose I stand prepared to kick ass and take names on your behalf!
