Dear Mr. Wonderful: Having totally read that as "she's not yet useless to me after all these weeks", all I can say is Way To Go, Romeo. Hopefully this one doesn't get tossed to the shredder like the others.

Then passed right by- And never knew.”

Yes oh GREAT ONE. Every post is directly related to YOU. I don't normally voice my biased opinions about the worthlessness of an individual but....If you could just crawl up your own ass and die, the world, (read eplaya), would be a better place. Too harsh? Naaah.

I hear that the Burning Man Project board, what with it's recent move into providing playa hotels, needs a new team player to run cover, and have I got the perfect fit!

STOP IT!! STOP IT RIGHT NOW!! IF I COULD TYPE A SCREAM I WOULD. What is this Fucking Jr. High? New posters should be limited to 4 posts a day until they have 100 posts. By then we would all plonk he/she and it would go away quietly. All the threads are ruined. Now we must start over.

Oh Grand Poobaa of the highest Moderator Order, Please erase ALL threads newer than 2006 and we will start fresh. Thank you. I'll expect a blank screen in the morning.

To whom it may concern.

Fuck! Oh. Excuse me. I thought this was a different thread. What the heck is wrong with you? Take a 'chill pill' and move on. This isn't a woman's right to choose, gay marriage or even politics. Yet...You just go on and on and on. You win OK? You win Burning Man. You get 1st place. I'll wrap up the whole sodding internet and snail mail it to you. You better stop before you get carpel tunnel fingers, have a stroke and get hooked on uppers so you can stay awake and post 24/7.

Try having a virtual drink, sharing a joke, welcoming the newbies, commiserating with those who lost their stuff in the dust, admiring your fellow eplayans handiwork. You are losing face with every keystroke. Stop being a donkey. Reminisce about the good times. Smile. You'll feel better.

There's nothing wrong with being passionate. There is something wrong with being obsessive. It will eat you from the inside out.

So, everyone's dopamine levels sour soar through the roof during the burn, but then they plummet and it takes months to get back to normal, you say? That's beginning to look rather valid.

I'm ignoring whole threads.

You ever have a relationship or a friendship that just fizzles and dies quietly? No active dumping or parting. Just one day you forget to respond to a phone call or an email and then a week or two later you remember. But now it's too late to respond, and you realize that if you haven't spoken in this long, maybe they don't want to speak to you. And neither reaches out to the other again. And after a month you decide that if you could go this long without contact, it really is no big loss.

That's what I keep hoping will happen to the threads.

I find it wildly amusing that the same guy who unapologetically posts Private Messages in public threads feels he is well-qualified to comment on a thread talking about a proposed code of ethics.

Thats some funny junk, right there.

Yeah, that troublemaker has gotten at least 4 more private messages telling them what a child they are, that combined with the public messages....I think that clown has learned a lesson.
