Ok as you have all pointed out good things i would like to remind them we are not judgeing them on there age or maturity level.

This is a matter of rules and if somethings were to happen.

I DO NOT advise ANYONE under the age of 18 to attend the event without a guardian. ( someone 18+ ). Not ONLY for the minors sake but the events as well.

They need to take responsibility for the age. YES it was a PAIN for myself to find a guardian, i asked MANY people and no one wanted to take on the responsibility of if something WHERE to happen, they could get called on the carpet.

But as i proved last year i am not the type to run with the inch of freedom i am given.... But not everyone is like that.

Though they MAY be mature enough to handle themselves and all that goes on... that is NOT the point.

Protecting the event and the people of the event as well as the underage person is.

It just bothers me... people shouldnt be telling them to go against the rules.... YES they would more than likely get in but that is SO besides the point.


And you should always go with me. Because i can do the splits and i enjoy belly dancing nude ;)

Either that or i will have to hit you over the head with a large club and throw you in the pile with the rest of the ones who didnt follow me ;)

My dearest DVD Burner, I will forsake thy love under the threat of harm to your body, a body I hold most dear. I am humbled to admit that I cannot do the splits. I am inadequate at belly dancing though I have been told that beauty radiates and pulsates from my pale nekkid body even when I hold still. I shall placate my desires for your affections, your words of flattery from afar, lest the rath of Tears come upon me. I will turn away from this twisted bit of fate which pains me and drown my sorrows with margaritas with Captain Goddammit.

With great sadness and heaviness in my heart,

'stine

p.s. as for you, tears, you be lucky, girlfriend, I'm not in a fightin' mood and there be more dogs in the yard to butt sniff 'cause you don't want me ta whip out my last can of whoop ass and show you what a tall, red-haired, green eyed bitch can do when someone's messing on her turf...or then again...perhaps we could ditch DVD, hold hands and skip away to find merriment of our own. it's all good!!!!! ;-)
Details are my krill.

Goddammit! Why the hell do I like you even though you always needle me?
By the way, Unjon, I went to that doctor you recommended... why did he have both hands on my shoulders during my prostate exam?

'stine, I might just like a can of whoop ass ;) There is always pleasure in pain !

Skipping off into the playa night with you would be pure ecstasy, I have no doubt.

I'm trying to be nice about it, but I'm not exactly in their good graces. It's been a pretty crazy mess, much of it of my own making because of the social experiments I've carried on and things I worked through post-car accident along with a messy girlfriend split, but some of it was because of some good old fashioned closed mindedness. Long story short, I was going to camp with the 3Playa village. Then in a very public way Precip and a few others said that because of my "drama" issues they were not comfortable with me camping with them. Well, instead of telling me this in private, I was blasted in public...which is something you normally don't do. Anyway it got ugly, dragged on for about 3 weeks, and today I finally said screw this and left.

If anyone wants to see the sordid mess (ie: is very bored and has too much time on their hands, check out the 3Playa Village and Kinetic's Space threads over on III's board). And for the record, I've got about 80% of the main users over there privately offering words of support, while a few others do what they did over here a few months back. The more things change, the more they stay the same....

I'm sure posting this will draw one of them to post a rebuttal...it's standard operating procedure, but so be it. Most of that group is a great group of people to know. But there's a few people that simply don't get it, and likely never will. Anyway it's over and done, and there are 30K+ other burners out there to get to know. Anyway I've hijacked this thread long enough. Back to the topic.

Fuck them. I told you a long time ago I did'nt like the way they treated you. They dont know how to have fun.....Well fun for them is being miserable and making others the same.

For the most part they are just jealous because they are not having a good time. That's why they make everyone else miserable.

Anyhoo, I'm glad GsPOT made this thread. I always had a good feeling about it as I said at the begining. GsPOT listen to Releaseme. :lol:

BTW Mr. K. I've always liked that Badger site. I like the song too. Oh and that new Sprint commercial..... :lol:


What a thread drift huh?

Hey, You guys will really Like Ring. He is a total blast. Really funny. I cant tell you how much fun we had when he came to San Fran. :lol:
He knows how ta parte'.

We cant forget Dr. LRB (Mr. Smith) and a few others either like phoenix13,Tiahaar, BAS, Bambi....hell why dont we make our own camp?

(actually too late for that you think?)

They all have thier own camps ready allready.


What to do. :o

Tancorix,

I don't post too often, but I read almost everything written. I for one will enjoy reading your posts again. I may not always agree with what you say, but I have never felt any hostility towards you. Besides, I grew up in Overland Park so I feel a slight kinship, if you will. Good to have you back.

Nor is announcing said exchanges in another public forum.

The practice of toting your baggage from one board to another to air your issues/dramas to draw attention to perceived slights and disagreement is a good case in point. Not so much a verboten netiquette thing as an exercise in declass behavior. At best its sophomoric. At worst, well, let the curious reader decide.

Still, it makes for some very interesting (hell, compelling) reading for those folks considering putting together a large camp comprised in part of people known only through e-mail exchanges.

as an eplaya addict I confess to trying to read new posts in upper threads daily (hourly when work is slow...great mini-drama everywhere) and hope to maybe run into some of you colorful characters out there this year. I also wish to be as handsome as Tancorix's avatar. And I'd miss both Badger or DVD if either was not here doing their thing.

I have to say that this position looks hella more justified than it did a week ago, darlin.

If you shat in your lunchbox, why the heck do ya have to go around trying to share your sandwich?

I wish the best for you, I really do.

Anway, to the teenagers. It would be best for all involved if you tried to find a guardian. That is my opinion, anyway.

Jeezz! Everybody, Please let me introduce to you one of the members of "Club 5". As much as I love Ms. Love, it behooves me how some of these people will come to eplaya to spread thier negative energy. Leave Mr. K alone. Keep the negative energy over at 3 and PP's board.

:evil:

Everyone on this thread (except Badger and you) are havin fun and is happy, Ms. Love. (what an Ironic name)

I dont not like people...

By now I know who to pay attention to and who not to, most of the time i just skip to the posts i care to read. And dont really get involved in personal drama. I feel way too old for any type of drama. (no offence to any drama kings and queens)

I bet ring is a blast. I so wanted to meet with you all, but work and being too young to get into places they had planed i didnt go. *whimpers*

Hey, I didn't cart that crap over here.

I'm commenting on the pile already on the floor.

I don't have happy fun time at someone else's direction and If I see crap I reserve the right to comment on it and point out who really put it there.
