PLEASE! Enough is bloody enough!
 
Come home to check msg and happenings at pixies,
I have 97 threads to view, over 1100 posts
4 PM's

of the 97 threads 88 are of one type
of the last member to post to these threads
89 out of 97 had the same members name
after closer inspection of the said same threads , the same member has posted up to 5 TIMES one after the other
this is now happening a daily basis now and i for one am SICK to fucking death looking at the same members posts in the same bloody threads day after day

If this is what pixies has come to I cannot justify wasting my time here


As for the member with the posting frenze "GET A BLOODY LIFE!"

Bilbo...I have a feeling you are talking about the Smut games. And yes I do play them. I play them when there is not much happening on the other fourms...just as others do as well.

But I don't care who's name is there. Or how many times they post.

We are all here to have fun and if some feel like it's the smut games...so be it! Who is to deny them that???


Maybe Lilith can see if the smut game section could be deleted from the new posts....I know I would like that.

So smile ((((Bilbo))))...it's not the end of the world..... :)

I was really sad to see this although you have complained about what you perceive as over posting by members before. Please keep in mind that " New Posts" vary for each person and that frankly, not everyone uses that feature. I for one, do not. What showed up this time as "New Posts" for you may not be new to anyone but you, it is all based on what you have viewed.

It is not possible to remove one forum from the "new posts". I checked. I will see if there is anything that can be done code-wise.

Now as for your complaint~ We have posters who are more active in the Smutt Games than any other forum. That is why we have Smutt Games to give people a fun forum where they can flirt and play and to let the other forums remain in a more conversational mode. Some other members never post there at all. Naturally the posters who participate in the games rack up heaving post counts and to me it does not mean they are on a "posting frenzy". Regardless, I do not think if all those posts were pic posts by one person you would be quite as upset. If I am correct you think that the posts represent a large quantity of less substantial material. That is a personal judgement you have made, based on what you feel this place is for, and are entitled to do so. However Pixies evolves with each person that signs up and participates and I for one do not have a problem with someone who posts in the Smutt Games when they are bored or playing with other members.

Pixies will never be a waste of time so long as we keep having new members join and participate. I for one think that when we start making threads judging the quality of posts and pointing the finger we discourage everyone from posting freely and that is a huge mistake.

I will see what I can do on my end but I am not sure there is anything I can do. In the past, I have discreetly pmmed people who seemed to be posting non-stop in the forums and making it difficult for others to post at all.

If it's any help, you can reduce the number of items that appear in your New Posts list by checking in a few times a day! :D

Teehee!

This was another unhelpful post, and I'm sorry. But it WAS fun!

IAKaraokeGirl 10-22-2003 07:27 AM

First of all, apologies to all who feel this way, especially if it is me that this is in reference to. Believe me, it's not some plot designed to irritate other Pixies members or to satisfy some imaginary need for attention.

I found Pixies during a very difficult time in my life and, honestly, if it hadn't have been for the games, I probably would not have stayed. The games provided me, and still do, a place for mindless fun, where I don't have to think about things in my life I'd rather not focus on. I find myself in the games most often, still, frequently, on days that are less than stellar, when I need to reach out and touch someone, at least virtually, and to make a connection.

It is through the games that I've come to know many Pixies members, their likes, dislikes, what they do for a living, what they dream about. I wouldn't hesitate to call any of them my friends, and I hope they feel the same way. On a good night in the games, you'll see flirting in abundance, but you'll also see caring, concerned people who want to know you better. And who here already has too many friends?

Pixies is many things to many different people. It fulfills needs for the particular person. Some people come here for the pictures, others for the stories, some just for the chat or advice forums. The beauty of this site is that it *can* be "home" for people with different priorities.

As Lilith says, perhaps the best way to handle it is to simply avoid "new posts" and check the forums individually that you are interested in. I know a lot of people do that. Me, personally...I do use the new posts, but often I'll just zip through the thread names, only looking at those I'm most interested in. It's all in personal preference.

Again, my apologies to those who may have been offended, and I hope that such a public addressing of this issue is not one to cause division among what I perceive as a close-knit family.

Belial 10-22-2003 08:00 AM

Please, don't *ever* stop posting, IAKG! :)

*big hugs*

Oldfart 10-22-2003 08:01 AM

Bilbo,

I wander through, and stay in touch with, particular threads.

I ignore the others in self preservation unless something

catches my eye.

That's just how I deal with it.

GusAspar 10-22-2003 08:19 AM

For someone whose cri de coeur is HluK bjzihef sis etbjaRgzqm ptz, I think Bilbo is getting a tad overemotional about other people's approach. I think it's wonderful that a place like Pixies exists, where IAKG can hypnotise us all (here's looking at you, kid), Bilbo can explode occasionally and some people can post prolifically - and we can all find our favourite corner to play in.

By the way, Bilbo, when you say HluK bjzihef sis etbjaRgzqm ptz, is that with extra parmesan and a side salad?

m45 10-22-2003 08:25 AM

Come on Bilbo...

Why is it so hard to just click on past.
I do that, I see so many smut game post it some times takes a page or two to get to what I want to see.
JUST CLICK ON PAST!!!!!!!!!

WildIrish 10-22-2003 08:43 AM

<---- blows out his candle, turns off his camera, scrapes the wax from his pecker and sulks away into the corner mumbling something about duck shit. :D

It's happened to me. I just holler at my wife instead of you guys. ha ha

Lovediva 10-22-2003 08:46 AM

IAK....you are a great friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!























With great knockers!!!!!!! :D :D

m45 10-22-2003 09:23 AM

I just clicked through 9 pages of threads in the new post.
Looked into only 8 or 10 that I wanted to see..

So what is the big deal...

This site is for everyone.

PantyFanatic 10-22-2003 10:40 AM

I SURE understand your feelings Bilbo. I’ve had the same feelings when I’ve been cramped for time and wanted my Pixie-fix before returning to slay my dragons of the hour.

I had to take note of IAKaraokeGir's sincere response and realized that our home is many things to many people. Us old Pixies have sure seen the change that Smut Games has made and we’ve seen a lot of other great things that have added to this unique place. I’ve had to learn to flip past the games to get at “Pixies” too.

IAKaraokeGir, also made a new point with me that some of the games are more than the repetitive postings and less than challenging listings that some of the early games quickly became. I don’t have a clew how to find the good ones that have a “Pixie" nature to them, but I’m going to PM her and see if she’ll tell me how to pick some out. Could be interesting.:rolleyes:

I hope it all looks better in the morning to you pal.:D We need you here.;)

They are all Pixies because the people who post here decide what Pixies is.

Please specify the prospective I must have to define Pixies.

Lilith 10-22-2003 11:25 AM

exactly my point~ everyone defines it for themselves!

It all becomes a lot clearer if you have your pants down. :D

PantyFanatic 10-22-2003 11:31 AM

I guess our difference is only expressing and interpreting each other. I'll work on that.

paprclphd 10-22-2003 11:32 AM

Funny thing happened this morning. I logged on to the site only to find an unreal amount of unread posts waiting for my attention. Instead of having a heart attack I simply checked the ones that I wanted to check and left the others alone. I personally enjoy some of the games and have posted in many of them. I think it is interesting and fun and like IKG mentioned, its a little way to get away from the real world. I can't imagine anyone getting upset because of the number of posts that they see when they open their pixie screen. Surely there is something else more imprtant in life to ponder over. This place is great and I wouldn't change a thing about it. You might try some of the games, heaven forbid you find some of them interesting. Don't stop stopping by though!

Good luck to you!

Lovediva 10-22-2003 11:35 AM

Love it or hate it, this is Pixies. And for me Pixies is the best place I have ever come across on the net and I call it my home. I may run away from home from time to time but I always come back!!

I just think we should all just get along and who cares if people post more than others!! It's a forum isn't it??????????


So to quote Bilbo..


PLEASE! Enough is bloody enough!


And Paprclphd I couldn't agree more when you say...

I absolutely love this place!! A place where Bilbo can rant, IAK can be thoughtful & honest with her reply, PF can express an interest in playing games he never showed an interest in before, Belial can jump in with a hug, Lilith stays calm & cool as always and WI can run around with his pants down.....

There have been times I've had 5 pages of new posts to look at when I log on. Most of them end up being games. So after skipping past all of them, I probably end up only reading 8-10 post and maybe post on only 2 or 3 of them. Thats why after being a member for a year I still don't have a 1,000 post. LOL.

I've played a few of the games in pixies but I'm just not a game player here or in real life. But since pixies is so many things to so many different people I'm glad the games are there for those that do like them or we might not have these people as part of our family.

So ((((Bilbo)))) do what I do.... give your mouse a workout skipping past the games, smiling at the names you see on each one cause their 'family' and this is a part of thier llfe.... then after reading the few your interested in, sit back and marvel over the strange, fun, sexy, group we pixies are!!

jennaflower 10-22-2003 03:04 PM

Smut Games?? what are those? Where do I find them???

Just kidding... I know where they are... I just rarely participate in them...

(((Bilbo))) just incase you might need some :) This is a great place... for many reasons... and I wouldnt like to see any of it change...

dicksbro 10-22-2003 04:10 PM

IAKG, I don't really perceive that his being upset was with you.

He made a similar complaint a year or so ago and I think he was directing it at me. I don't know that for absolute sure, but I think so. In any case, at that time I offered to discontinue posting if I was causing a problem. I suggested that if it was felt by those in charge that I was abusing things by my posting ... I would step away gladly because Pixies is too special to see it ruined.

I was told that that was not the case. I love Pixies and the good people I've met here and have had fun sharing with many, many of you and consider you to be the best friends I've never met ;).

In any case, I don't think anyone else needs to feel like the comments were directed at them. Heck ... I love all your posts! :D

kleclere 10-22-2003 04:27 PM

Bilbo I hope that you as afriend and family memember can see past this and continue to enjoy Pixies. I to enjoy the Smut games it is fun to be with friends and get my brain working. I find that it is a release from tensions and I get to know more of the newer Pixies and many of the friends that I have come to know from the past. I would hate to lose you as a friend just over this. Sending a :) to you and hope to continue seeing you here, it wouldn't be the same without you here.

Sharni 10-22-2003 07:51 PM

Eek touchy subject...and really not sure i should be adding my 10c worth...but anyway...you all know me and know i just cant help meself *LOL*

He was not complaining about Smut Games in particular from what i read....it was more about the mass posting (or flooding in some threads) by members (like i said earlier...probably me included) and as i've myself brought up...it can be frustrating even from a smut games player like myself

Can i also remind all that there was no names named at all in his statement....if ppl believe that they are who he is talking about then well maybe there is some truth in what he says

Not everyone has the opportunity to visit more than once a day...nor the time to sort through 10 pages or more pages of games

The ppl that dont like the games do not realise that some flirt and play in there....i'd like to thank you IAK for adding your piece here as i myself was touched by your response...

Out of all the posts here only one really got up my nose...and i will address it here publically

GusAspar ~ What has someones signature line got to do with any of what is being said here???????? What is written there is for my benefit...it is in Elvish...and wether you understand it or not is irrelevant!

For those that told Bilbo to more or less "get over it"...if i may...i dont find that acceptable....he has a beef and it should be addressed same as everyone elses is....he did not actually name any particular names...it could be me for all you know...We are all here after all to have fun...if someone has a problem with the site, they should feel free to bring it out into the "public eye" and NOT be attacked for doing it

Some of you had some constructive ideas about how Bilbo can get around this problem....Thank you

Not all of us are diplomatic in the way we post....but i always try to be diplomatic back (well until ya piss me off the diplomacy tends to disappear out the window :D) to every post.
