You are not annoying etahannah. But if you only did the dancing stuff in the dg forum and then once awhile outside of there, it would be funny like it was in the beginning. i think people just say every post beats it into the ground.

but don't take offense and don't go away from GC.

[ladygreek]

maybe i should have just stayed away from greekchat and not come back...never realized that i was THAT annoying to some many people

so sorry

Doing a "I need sympathy" dance.

I mean dang I don't know anything about your posts from before, but this thread is annoying as heck.

But, just do you and be confident about it. You actually received a lot of positive reinforcement in the other thread, so the threat to leave came across (to me) as a LSE ploy.

It's the nature of MBs. If certain posts bother you then take your own advice and don't respond. BTW, aren't you bashing?

*Karen is doing lots of dancing*

*etahannah dance away*

*dance, people, dance*

*dance away*

Exactly

How's it any different than, for example, what Kitso does?

*dances the "361 reasons why this doesn't bug me" dance*

[SOPi_Jawbreaker]

I personally like the dancing and the 361... thing. I think they're creative and I love reading those posts cuz I love seeing what etahannah and kitso come up with...what the new dance or the new 361 slogan thing will be.

Lol, but that DOESN'T COUNT! How often do we see on GC someone try to tell something not to do something WHILE they're doing it themself?

Etahannah, I too may join the ignore crowd. Again, it's nothing personal, but it's just lost any cuteness it may have had. Like I said in the other thread, it would have a better effect if you used it more sparingly. BTW- I too hate the long signatures, but mods don't have power to edit signatures and John hasn't done anything about it. You can turn off sigs in your settings, but then that sucks sometimes b/c you need the sig to remind you what org someone is in.

Does the -361 thing get used anymore?

And people need to stop getting defensive when someone doesn't agree with their posts/posting style/etc.

If you like the way you're posting, post, if you want to change it up, change it up, but let's not play "message board martyr"

The 361 thing... no one said that didn't bother them either. And those were kinda funny tho.

Hannah it's no offense to you. You're a good poster and stuff. I know people get annoyed that I always type in pink but once in a while I tone it down. It's just out of habit to type the code in now.

The 361 thing hasn't been used in quite awhile. Kitso quit posting a long time ago.

Something about annoying dances?

no more dancing...

never knew that it irritated so many people...

i usually ignore the things that other people do or say that annoy me, but obviously it is too irritating and annoying, so i stop.

hope everyone is happy...never meant to piss anyone off...

Ask yourself this:

Do you enjoy doing it and want to keep doing it?

Do you care what they think and find annoying?

Do they have to read it?

Do they have the option of hitting the ignore button?

Do they write things that aren't annoying?

The users of Greekchat are not perfect. Don't let the losers convince you of that and get you to change if you don't want to.

[AlphaFrog]

The only problem with the Ignore button is if that poster does post something significant to the conversation (heaven forbid), then the conversation might not flow right and/or things get repeated. And god knows how GC people hate things repeated....

ETA: Just for the record, I don't care either way about the dancing. It doesn't bother me, and it doesn't really make me go "Awwww that's cute"

There's a quite instructive story about the great artist, Salvadore Dali . . . in his younger years, he was trying to impress a girl who he thought was very intelligent and moral. Dali felt he had to show this girl that he could be humble and meek, as humility was a highly valued moral value driven by the religions of the time. So, young Dali covered his nude body in feces and showed up at her door - she was not impressed.

I'm not really sure how this anecdote really applies, but the rest of this thread is pretty much self-important "posting to hear yourself post" or "bitching for the sake of bitching," so I figured I would join in.
