Josh could be in college taking finals as well. I don't get the impression that he is that young but yea... I read that that other person was something ridiculous like 15 or 16.

Another one of those where are the parents in all this. I'd kill my kid if I found out they did something like that.

I really do understand how Jess feels.
I have been trying with them for over 8 months. When I did once get in touch with someone attempting to state some sort of reason they kept saying something different. I got the impression the mod was not even 100% sure what was going on. All I know is for almost 2 year I sent $20.00 to $25.00 a month and then they can arbitrarily ban me and keep me from playing with my pixels or getting the advantage of my 'investment'

well i can tell you that Keith is not 16 or 15 he is in fact 18 he was 16 when he started the site. and that whole hacking in getting peoples pass words came about because of an item called the longcat

he diesided to give it away in a massive giveaway and some people got really angry and hacked the site.

in the end he deleted the item i think.

That's interesting....and a bit scary actually! I wonder which site it was that had compromised accounts.


*edit*

I finally have pants!!!!! YAY!!!!! :D Which don't show up on this post.... :(

Love the new pants!

Yay! Mothers Day is this weekend! It'll be my second one. Had to remind the husband, though. Just give him a little nudge. ;)

Has anyone seen SV around much? I know I've been slightly sporadic with my posting here - I'll jump in and post something and then take off - so sometimes I miss people. But there are a few people I've noticed I've not really seen much lately and he's one of them.

I see your pants. They look cute. :)

I'm so irritated by the whole mess and I sincerely hope that Jess gets her account back along with all of the other innocent people.

@luckycharm: Yay on the pants! Now that they have released the pirate items I have even more stuff to quest for.

@Aliena: I have seen him log in but I have not seen him post lately. Maybe send him a pm and see how he is doing. Hope things are ok with him.

@Bippy: Hey stranger! *hugs* How is the beautiful Lumpy? Yes, more fawN news would be good :)

Actually, the last time I believe I saw SV post was on the neo guild introducing himself there.

funny you should ask ... fawN sent me texts over the weekend:

and an email today:






sorry i didn't post this sooner. was busy this weekend. our first wedding anniversary :-)

and bipper, how is lumpy?

Pirate items????? Must go look through the shops!!! I do hope everything is going well for Fawn and little one....and Bipper and little Lumpy!

*edit* Oh!!!!! I so need to quest for this stuff!!!!

Blah - I think one of my faculty are mad at me right now - we have a new voice mail system at work and he wanted me to record his message for him.

I told him that I really don't want to be his voice mail - (I hate being on the phone and I hate the sound of my voice) - and he got all upset looking and left.

I told the other secretary that he's mad at me and when I brought him his copies she was in his office recording his voice mail for him. I don't understand why he can't record his own message - he had a friggin PhD I'm sure he can figure out simple step by step instructions.

He's such a nice person but I get so frustrated with him because he can't seem to do anything for himself. The other secretary like needy people - I don't - I get aggravated with needy people, especially educated adults.

I feel like I should go in and apolagize, but I also don't think I did anything really wrong - I simply said I really don't want to be your voice mail message. I don't think recording a voice mail message for department faculty is part of my job - he asked me a favor and I declined because it makes me uncomfortable.

I actually have anxiety about answering phones - no idea why - I even got yelled at with another one of my jobs for not taking enough turns answering phones (but I had a mini panic attach every time I answered - I'm getting better at it tho . . . )

Anyway - sorry to bombard you all with this - i just need to get it out and couldn't think of a better place than with you all. :?

What on earth is a purkle?

Aw sia that sucks. I don't like needy people either and you would think that someone who has spent all that time in school could record their own message. Probably still has 12:00 blinking on the VCR, lol!

I don't think that you should have to do something that you are not comfortable with. He might understand that if you talk to him or you could just let it blow over.

I hate being on the phone as well, which was part of the reason why I loved my previous job (before they sent it to India). I was only on the phone if I needed something from the customer which was rare. We could communicate through email which was so much better. Now I'm on the phone all the time :(

I hate that. I have one of the attorneys here that can't pick up the phone and call clients back himself. We have to place the call for him. We also have one of the other attorneys that just can't have his voice on his voicemail. How hard is that. I mean if I place a call, I certainly don't want to hear the secretary's voice. I so know what you mean Si.

Not yet but Im hopeful. There is a list on some one's Gaia journal (over 3000 names) of people that were temporarily banned to protect their accounts, my name is about halfway down the list. Im sure its going to take awhile and if I was only banned because Gaia wanted to protect me, then Im actually rather relieved. At least I now know for sure that I did nothing wrong so Im going to try and stay optimistic. I've filled out the proper forms so now all I guess I can do is wait. And Im NEVER going back to Subeta ever again!!

Just heard back!!!! They asked for some information and are going to do an account recovery for me :D They told me I did nothing wrong, and are going to help me resolve this as soon as they can. I feel so much better hearing it from them, even though I knew I didnt do anything wrong *whew*

That's awesome Jess! I hope they get it back to you as soon as possible!

@jelly: Actually I didn't realize Josh was English and so young :cry: I feel so old! LOL!

Morning all.

You guys are looking great with all your outfits. I really need to check out the shops again but I've been slacking on it.

Ok, I have a question and can't seem to get an answer on it.

I ordered a new Dell which has been shipped as of yesterday. I should have it by Thursday, Friday at the latest *crosses fingers*.

I had to get Windows Vista. Has anyone here had any experience with this new system yet? I'm very nervous that things are not going to go well for a while and would like some input on it. Anything would be much appreciated.

Unfortunately I haven't heard much at all about Vista - some people like it, others said there isn't much of a difference, and other hate it. The one complaint I have heard is about the new office menus - it's some kind of floating ribbon where the options word thinks you want to use are made available.

morquarwen: I'm so glad you're going to get your account back!!

Well I guess I will let you all know if I like it or not then.
