@ShadowWizard do not misunderstood me, but if you look at it you will see that the Den is frequented by the same few users, while the Sugar Cube wasn't frequented at all. I fear that most of the chat users do not want fun
If my assumption is correct, next week we may see something funny
@Ahmad thanks but I must say that all the Den regulars (@DroidDev, @SilentKiller, @ProgramFOX, @SPArchaeologist, @MysticMagic, @rene and more) are normal good people. Really! :-)
as the hats come alive, expect a mass of never seen before users to appear around, wreak some chaos in the "posts management" Tavern and then disappear again when the hats slowly walk away
@ShadowWizard I hope so, I don't want to say this, but there was one who seemed even mocking me by saying "Aren't you that guy who kicked off by mods and a monologue ...."
@SPArchaeologist well, the fun here is short and simple so more people can "connect" with it without feeling obliged. I suspect that's the difference between the Den and the Sugar Cube.
@SPArchaeologist haaaaats!! :D
@SPArchaeologist well, "normal" got a wide definition.... ;)
@Ahmad yeah, think I know who/what you mean. No point lingering on this.
@ShadowWizard first they not pay attention to me then they mock me, i really don't need to be there or engage them, just its not according to "Be Nice" rule i saw in the site, sorry if I share these with u, but they totally are ruining my image I had from good people around the web.
Though I know many of them (you pointed) are helpful but busy people
but at end we are humen, and all questions of these site doesn't worth to make some one annoyed
@Ahmad fair enough, my advice for you on this matter is just to stay away from the Tavern. The rules in chat are more flexible, and it goes both ways. (e.g. no actions will be taken for non offensive insulting)
usually the first ones disappear as soon as they see that it is impossible to "fight" the third ones, mostly because the "management" do not want to (ie: it consider that a worthless effort)
@Ahmad Take a simple example. Lazlo Paps. He is remembered for "constantly crying about unexplained downvotes". While the extremes of his behaviour surely were bad, I ask you if you really think the points he made in his most civil discussion were actually considered by somebody.
@ShadowWizard I admit I am newbie and you have experienced it but for example one who constantly get down-vote for any question (all of his questions), he may just feels he is rejected from the community, he may take it personal, but if he just can have some up and down-votes he feels that votes are directed to questions and not the person (as a psychological example I say)
@ShadowWizard I have some up-votes and many good answers I got, and I learned from down-votes too then I found the meaning of votes, but beleive me many people relate votes to their value (it may be a psychological matter) and if after many efforts they just recieve downs , it affects them...
@ShadowWizard or for another example, in your view point then reputation point has not much psychological matters related with it, but it does. Your reputation system uses a psychological concept.
@Ahmad that's one reason for having explained downvotes. Popular consensus was "no, users are free to vote as they want, they are entitled to downvote based on avatars, sympathy, lunar phases and such if they want. It has always been this way, and it should stay so.". Again, not going to discuss that anymore, only suggesting you to stay clear from that argument.
@SPArchaeologist Yes I also read that consensus several times, but it has contradictions, there is no mechanism for frauded or revenge votes... but there is a mechanism to ban the user out of the votes to his questions, I myself am banned from asking quesitons, also there is no mechanism to expose the questions for revoting.
@SPArchaeologist Also the meaning of votes also ambiguous, as everyone should ask common questions to receive votes, but the reality is that people want to ask the questions they face in a particular situation that they have and there is not much resource for it. if it was a common question then I already have found some answer for it in the web.
@Ahmad from my experience, almost nobody actually changes his votes if a post is edited. Actually, I don't think the system provides much alerts to support someone wanting to.
@Ahmad that is because the sites rules are for reusable questions/answer. I can actually understand that. What really makes me laugh is that if you actually look at it there are much more dupes of what is tagged as such. Best part is when someone mark as dupe but at the same time copies the answer from the original post in an attempt to gain rep
@SPArchaeologist Yes, nobody changes his votes, people have tendency to vote according to the current votes, nobody regard an old question, ... etc. these are things not covered
When I checked in for my American Airlines flight from Costa Rica back to the States, I noticed that my boarding pass had "SSSS" printed across the top left corner.
Nobody else in my party had this on their boarding pass, and I didn't notice that I was treated differently at the airport (securit...

@rene you?! Jason totally wins this category, then comes @DroidDev then myself :D
@ShadowWizard it was also used (or pretended to be used in Old School) , for filling up the small swimming pool for chick on chick wrestling, which in turned caused My Boy Blue to die
@ShadowWizard Do you have a leaderboard for "most obscure relations"?
