Shutting down the Flame board

Mary Anne — 10/7/2006 11:05:30 PM (archived)

Oh, I dunno...

If we shut down the paintball facilities, we might have more paintball fights in the parks.

The Flame board has always been a place to go (or to send things) when an argument has gotten personal and somewhat out of hand. The equivalent of "let's take it outside".

You think it's a good thing to make that go away?

        To reveal evidence of a possible crime is not aiding and abetting. - Mary Anne - 10/5/2006 4:57:15 PM
        
        What if no crime took place? - Scott Evil - 10/5/2006 6:11:56 PM
        
        If no crime took place, Mr. Foley has merely sexually harassed an employee. - Mary Anne - 10/5/2006 6:18:26 PM
        
        do you have evidence that Foley sexually harassed an employee? - Scott Evil - 10/5/2006 6:25:06 PM
        
        Oh, read the emails. It's all right there. - Mary Anne - 10/5/2006 6:40:39 PM

        Don't worry, I'm breathing... But before the election, the Democrats will be begging Mark Foley to forgive them and Come back to the House of Representatives. - Scott Evil - 10/5/2006 7:03:10 PM
        
        You want it both ways - Yeti Handler - 10/5/2006 7:32:07 PM

  - Misleading and inaccurate. - Tom Brosz - 10/5/2006 2:22:50 PM
    - Just a few days ago Clinton "lost his mind" when he expressed the paranoid delusion that Fox was biased. - alcaray - 10/5/2006 3:02:26 PM
      - Where did Fox News come into this? - Tom Brosz - 10/5/2006 4:54:05 PM
        
        Only as a part of a story that demonstrates the flexibility of your definition of paranoia. (n/t) - alcaray - 10/5/2006 5:41:15 PM

        Individuals involved in the conversation can save IM sessions as computer files. - Mary Anne - 10/5/2006 5:14:16 PM
        
        yes they can also create phoney IM messages that then could be sold to ABC News. - Scott Evil - 10/5/2006 6:15:54 PM

        I don't think anyone is seriously calling the IM messages phony. - Tom Brosz - 10/5/2006 6:21:09 PM
        
        All it takes for them to be phoney is one redaction... - Scott Evil - 10/5/2006 6:36:26 PM

        I am not sure how you would have tracked IM's 5 years ago. - REB - 10/5/2006 4:08:13 PM
