Smile May 25: Happy Birthday XavierP!


Come on everyone, say "Happy Birthday!"

Hey, it's a tough job having to keep a band of rowdy geeks in line. Who else enlightens the clueless, rebukes the trolls, shuts down the spammers, larts the double posters, and generally keeps LQ from going to the birds.

So show some appreciation, and don't forget to thank him!

Thank you AlexV and thank you one and all

Kencaz - threaten me like that again and I'll ban you

rksprst - it is in fact too easy to just lose it when someone transgresses. I find it much more .... fun (?) to respond calmly. I find it best to imagine it as a playground confrontation - one person going red in the face and waving their arms around and the other standing there, leaning coolly against a wall.

Anyway, a a way to mark the fact that once again I have managed to get one year older, I am giving all flamers, trollers and other wasters a complete 10 second amnesty. Starting ................................ now



Too late!
