What you said about Imbrogno I found to be rude and inaccurate, so I commented on it. If he didn't help out on this forum I would agree with you in questioning why he has a VIP flag, but he does do stuff on here. I'm willing to bet he remembered seeing a post about the smack pad (oh maybe two days ago when I saw it too?) and he said to search for it. Or he just took a shot and said "search for it"...
I completely agree with you, Joshu, even after your little stunt about me, that instead of saying "search for it" it would have been much more simple and helpful to just answer, but look at the bigger picture... If you answer someone's question on this forum, where the answer already exists, that's all well and good. But, if you teach them where to find it, it saves everyone time... most importantly the person looking for the answer. Not only that, but with a forum search you often get more than one person's opinion.
Incidentally, what were you trying to prove with that little /ignore post? You neglected to mention that half of those posts were from the Dr Pepper thread, where everyone was being insane... and you also forgot that half a dozen of those were from replies to "Mr Idea Dude" "Ms Idea Dudette" and that stuff... AND you also forgot to mention that at least 3 or 4 of those were step-by-step instructions for two separate people on how to upload roles using zMUD and/or ZOC.
I post under one condition and one condition only... If I have something to say. Some people like my posts, some do not, but no one is forced to read them. You may be forced to see my name on your screen, but there's not much I can do about that... just how we're all forced to focus on VIP flags simply because they stand out, by design. So, reply to this if you want, e-mail me if you want, but basically... if you're going to "lash out" against me and make a joke at my expense, I'm going to reply... thereby increasing your argument that I post too much.
Proud Blade said it best when he said that I open myself up to a lot of mockery simply because of the volume of my posts... he also made a valid point that after you sift through my ramblings that sometimes I actually tend to answer someone's question. In conclusion... I post when I post, unless a VIP tells me (constructively) what I'm doing wrong and how I am negatively effecting this Forum... something that I do not want to do. I try to add life to my posts, maybe even give someone a chuckle.
I'm sorry you don't enjoy them, refrain from clicking when you see my name, then.
-Zepachu, not mad at you.
