Arch, 'tis a beautiful thing, watching those three battle. No, Virg has never been at war with anyone over there as far as I know. But oh how I do miss Marketopoly and Jaques the Momo Monkey...

Gold cratered by $30 and the Dow is pushing ever higher on QE 2.x news.
I think the schism between the markets and economic reality are starting to cause them physical pain.

What would happen if all the mods gave each other a 24 hour time out?

Well, I've caught up on my reading.
1) Congrats to POM on her Poster of the day status. 2) I thought Netscape Navigator was exploiting a timing issue on how the Smite button loaded not any knowledge of the API or coding based on what he said.
There's more but I should go to bed and get up at a reasonable hour. Dream of miracles and see whether my reading on Solaris Zones is enough to get me a crack at this 3 month contract job that showed up in email.

Congrats on the new contract! I hope everything works out to your liking. Working back to my optimistic self. I don't have the contract, I just got contacted by a recruiter. I've been away from the UNIX admin biz for a few years so I'm selling myself back in partly by studying Solaris 10 zones on my own.

The MU persona was a fairly one dimensional character. It was very limiting for the person behind it. To stay in character his replies were mostly just about the same. It could be that he ended that persona & will come back as himself. Over here he did seem to be a good person so I for one would welcome him (& that's coming from someone that didn't "get him" for a long time).

I'll jump into the MU controversy.
I figured out (hoped) a long time ago on the other boards that it was likely an on-line persona. MU made a crack at me out of the blue once, I think he got banned, and that was that.
I don't post much, so I didn't really interact with MU. I mostly shook my head at some of his posts and and said to myself "This guy can't be for real. Really??"
I must admit though, that I was impressed by his behavior over here. If he resorted to his past behavior, I didn't see it on these boards. Which may not be saying much, because I can't keep up over here. LOL
Anyway, I thought maybe he'd dropped the *persona* (mostly) and was trying to show more of the person behind the mask. Was I snookered??
ETA: I was trying to pick a smilie and have no idea what will show up or how to edit after I post.

I'm confused by your post. I don't know what the "What??" is in reference to ... so "And do I care??" has no reference for me either so Thanks for the Good sleep wishes.

ok... seriously.. virgil's prank really WAS just a prank. it was not meant to be mean or to harass MU.. and everything was put back just the way it was. i guess though, that harmless practical jokes can't be tolerated Read more: notmsnmoney.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=fun&action=display&thread=965&page=9#ixzz1A9mcl254I cant beleieve I read this whole thread, laughing my ass off to find some folks really need to lighten up and enjoy life. If you dont like a person or the humor in a thread move on. Im sure you can find some doom and gloom someplace around here that will make you happy. Now carry on. I have to go to work

Huh I was thinking for a moment that I must be Canadian or something. I find our Canadians funny. Virgil had me cracking up on this thread. Is it because I live so close to 2 bridges to Canada that I have been infected by their humor?
Is Commentator our dear Blue in disguise?

I don't know MU from Adam's house cat but I withdraw my earlier comparison of him with BobNDC. Virgil Synod alone holds that uncomplimentary status. I do have a sense of humor but "pranks" that require irresponsible power to pull off smack of abuse of authority and a decidedly tilted playing field. Yea, yea, yea... but who ever promised you a Rose Garden commentator... Is Commentator our dear Blue in disguise? [/quote][/u][/s][/i][/b] If only that were true but unfortunately it is NOT.... Commentator will have all the Mods soon asking themselves "Why me Lord, what did I do to deserve this guy?".....and that you can take to the bank as soon as they open in @ 2 hrs..

commentator--as a matter of public record: I regret causing MU any distress. It was not my intent to do so, nor did I have any reasonable expectation that he would find my actions upsetting. My actions were implemented wholly outside my capacity as an administrator. And, having witnessed this unusual aftermath, I will not repeat the prank. BTW this thread is dumb but hilarious and is competition for the P&M "Are You Prepared For An Economic Collapse This Fall?" which is a class in the history of dumb but hilarious threads that just keep on giving.. As I see it, this is a matter to be resolved between myself and MU. If you would like to level additional criticisms at me, I kindly ask that you do so using private messages. Your concern for the board is appreciated. Regards, Virgil Not to worry Virgil .....Most Muscle Heads, and their proteges like Muscle Up aren't easily offended. They just keep pumping Iron until their egos are healed which only takes a moment.....believe me on this one.. "Hell hath no fury like OUR female EE Members scorned but with male EE Members it ain't no biggie"....
