A modest proposal for a new section

[steve B]

I'm thinking we need a new section.

One where people can go to air their personal angst and silly disputes.

I'm thinking it could be - if the software allows this- a thing where people get crazy and could be temporarily banned from posting in any area except that one. Like for a day, or a few hours...


We could call it "facebook54"? No, that would probably get someone sued.

How about "the padded cell"? ............. Nope, it might be insensitive to crazy people.

I've got it!
"The timeout room"

How do we make this happen?

"The Airing of Grievances"

This section would be a Festivus miracle for the main page.

Yeah, but then we'd need a Feats of Strength room too.

I had a Festivus miracle last year: I made an entire car disappear. Some moron parked across our driveway entrance on Festivus so I had him towed.

Awesome idea. I just "ignored" my first Net54 member today due to communication issues. I tried to educate him by providing some information about the selling price of some of the cards he was trying to "low-ball" me on, and instead he thought I was telling him to go to those members to buy from them instead. Um...no. I was letting him know that the selling price was higher than what he was asking, so if he desires those cards in the future, he should know to offer a higher amount and also to let him know that they had been sold.

Anyway, it's one of the first times I've been really ticked about a person here and would have loved to blow off some steam instead of telling him off in a later PM and later being called a "very unfriendly seller". I'm probably one of the nicest people to deal with on this board, so it ticks me off to no end to think someone dislikes me. Oh well. There's a first for everything.

He is now IGNORED (or, in facebook terms, UNFRIENDED)!
