What's goin' on on this site?

What would you say the general personality of eZabel as a whole has been lately? Where's all the lightheartedness? Where's all the funny stuff? I miss the care-free days of eZabel. Nowadays I have to worry about people being so harsh to other users that they basically run 'em outta town. I have to worry about people going a little too far with their jokes or attitudes or opinions.

This is a public site for sure, and is not limited to any certain type of person. But please try to be a good eZabel citizen and make this a welcoming, loving place. And think twice before you post. Imagine your grandmother (or mine if you don't have any) reading everything you write. It'll make us all happier.

I agree that this site's 'tude is currently a bit harsh. And a little critical of those who are 'outsiders', but i think, to change all that, we should horsewhip anyone who gets out of hand. And caning (singapore style) should be instituted for all those who are going off on what they are saying, i mean, you don't use words like that, Saint Louise is listening.

This will definitely improve the overall morale of the site. Light hearted, no, but effective....

I mean come on, some peoples ideas are just ridiculous...

People have been flipping out lately. It's no good when you read posts and feel bad or embarrassed when people are rude to other users. Everyone is entitled to their own personal opinion, that doesn't mean it has to be yours.

Avoid corporal punishment...display brotherly love.

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003

IT WAS A JOKE!!! I thought that would be obvious, sorry...

T
toxicgirlOG 2003

Oh c'mon, I knew it was a joke!

I looked at this and thought it was going to be a poem. When I read it, I was like,"This doesn't rhyme" Then I realized Im an idiot

tinser tinserOG 2002

haha, i thought the same thing

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder

what? you read it, and thought that jolly candy man was an idiot, too?

Harsh--this is exactly what we're talking about here, people. Matt, I love ya, bro!

J
jollycandymanOG 2001

yeah I know. I read her comment and sunk into a depression. Cant she read? What is he nut?

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder

man, I wish you could go see him...but he's playing at an 18 and up only club. :(

J
jollycandymanOG 2001

aaawww, that kinda stinks, 2 years

bizarret bizarretOG 2003

BWAAAHAAAHAAHAA!!!

tinser tinserOG 2002

you're not 18?

bizarret bizarretOG 2003

you're right, the name is deceiving. He should be called Jolly Candy Youngin' or Jolly Candy Boy or Gay Sugar Daddy.

J
jollycandymanOG 2001

hahaha, OH snizzle! No you didn't! Ironically, Gay Sugar Daddy was one of my first name options, that and John_Ritter_Fan_211

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002

yo everyone around here needs to relax...i'm always getting ragged on b/c i'm allergic to milk, or single, or whatever... i don't mind that much, but just expect to get it back as much as you dish it out...(magnum)...when people don't, it's just pointless.

J
jollycandymanOG 2001

yeha the milk thing was KIND of funny at first, now its just annoying. Make fun of him for something else for goodness sake

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

That shouldn't be too hard.

J
jollycandymanOG 2001

exactly, so fire away

magnum magnumOG 2001

its my fault you take it further then it should? Not like this news item applys to me, i don't even post here more then once a week if that.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002

cerbrato cerbratoOG 2002

bizarret bizarretOG 2003

J
jollycandymanOG 2001

"Over the Top"....good movie...no

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder

lol, ahhhh matt. You devil.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002

actually i think everything changed when ian introduced the "macking" forum...suddenly, it's like everyone went to a house party with no parents and a lot of beer...it's a free for all...disgusting. although, somehow, i can't look away.

reaf reafOG 2002

Personally, I love the macking forum, I find it hysterical $ entertaining at times, only a few of the forums in it, some are rather very boring! I think it could be the best thing to happen to this site in ages upon stages.

nsav16 nsav16OG 2003

i think that dan is such an "Angel" LOL. Besides dan you have to laugh about being single. In a way its somethingt speacial. :-) And anyone who cant take a joke shouldnt read the comments. Up tight peps are no fun. HOLLA

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

i like ezabel. i can't comment on how it was before i came. but i can see a marked change even in the short time i've been around. i hope the influx of new ones isn't making the older ones upset. if so--they should get over it.

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002

i am soooo addicted and i need help. im on at the library in south jersey!

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002

wow...i didn't think they had the internet in south jersey...i heard they only got the wheel a few weeks ago...i guess technology is getting intense

tinser tinserOG 2002

yeah, i hope they come out with a AA club for ezabel soon

ekulu ekuluOG 2002

wouldnt it be EA?

tinser tinserOG 2002

yes, yes it would

omegatweeter omegatweeterOG 2003

EA Sports! IT'S IN THE GAME!

tinser tinserOG 2002

see, that's really why i didn't put EA...because EA reminds me of that...and i know they have a copywrite

bizarret bizarretOG 2003

copyRIGHT

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003

its called getting a life...

jay79 jay79OG 2001

or a girlfriend

rocksupastar rocksupastarFounder

or a pet.

tinser tinserOG 2002

or a chia pet

omegatweeter omegatweeterOG 2003

or a chicken

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002

or a small vietnamese child dressed in red sitting on a can

tinser tinserOG 2002

hahaha, that was good

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003

i know, that's why i've been off of it for so long...

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003

yes and this is why yoda has become nonexistent...

hunkpapap hunkpapapOG 2003

i know!!! he was barely here and now he's not at all. He's become non-existent everywhere...

reaf reafOG 2002

I haven't noticed a dif, I skim more then I actually read half the stuff here!

starshiptrooper starshiptrooperOG 2003

Toxicgirl is a young woman with ALOT of class. She wrote me a very sweet email, and she wasn't even involved in the lynching!!

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002

yeah, i know, shes' awesome, but she can be kind of cold at times.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

Dan is still hurting over his taco rejection.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

dan--i'm gonna toss ya a beatin'. she's not cold. she's warm and delicious as a freshly baked tortilla. a tortilla of which you'll never partake.

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002

aaaaaaargh these mexican food references will come back to haunt me... like an old man who will have a violent disposal of some aforementioned foreign delectable nourishment.

T
toxicgirlOG 2003

awww...you're the best

T
toxicgirlOG 2003

Dan, Dan, Dan...like you said, it's not you-it's me. Let's be friends.

T
toxicgirlOG 2003

Wow, thank you.

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

ugh i hate you ... haha

T
toxicgirlOG 2003

that was counter-productive

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

ugh i hate you too

ok4now ok4nowOG 2002

*yawns and stretches* did i miss something?

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002

woah, rip van winkle is back!

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

i was just thinking... this whole thing started just because starship trooperface said something.. i thought was kinda funny " nothing personal, but you're married now. time to grow up and spend time with your wife. " .. anyway so i thought... What IF I HAD said that.. i dont think people would have flipped out... people would have been like " stupid asian die.. go to AA already" or something dumb. anyway...i just wanted to bring this subject up again.. so everyone gets angry and fights and we all make fun of old people and stuff... i miss dave.. he was old

tinser tinserOG 2002

haha, okay....i hate you ty! how's that?

starshiptrooper starshiptrooperOG 2003

u know what Thai? I LOVE your food!

malibu malibuOG 2001

this is like our watchtower study today.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

I was thinking about that too..and I meant to comment on it. The watchtower was so amazing and great today! Just not only telling us to have upbuilding conversation but how to. And I know a lot of people, myself included, have a major problem with that.

J
jollycandymanOG 2001

I commented during the watchtower on how we were just talking about this on eZabel, nobody knew what i was talking about

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

Did you really? That's kind of funny. I commented once about Santa Clause..I thought it was a great comment..I guess it really wasn't though?

J
jollycandymanOG 2001

I didn't actually, but it would be funny if I did

malibu malibuOG 2001

it'd almost be as bad as giacomo thanking ezabel during the convention part for his addiction to the internet.

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003

LOL

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

That was one big jolly great laugh Mel!

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003

hehe yup :) i found it funny...

iwz iwz

Absolutely! Great article. That's what I was going for with this story.

bizarret bizarretOG 2003
