the original thread is here:
http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=10&t=001902&p= ] the previous thread is here: Cloudy's CafeCome in, be welcome, be comfortable, be yourself Welcome to Cloudy's Cafe, a place to have a cup of coffee or a good darjeeling and the finest in conversation and camaraderie. The proprietor asks that you follow a few simple guidelines: this is a real conversation zone, not a role-play zone* no flaming; if you disagree with a viewpoint expressed by any patron, please do so in a civil manner * any topic is fair game, but keep posts to the standards that Ziroc has set for the entire forum, please (ie: foul language is not appropriate and things should be suitable for all audiences) -a side note from Cloudy: I see this as a place for those short conversations about a new baby or the latest soccer fiasco, not for things that are big enough to warrant their own threads, by all means give those things the space they need and post separately! * Please, no one word or smiley posts (Ziroc has declared them 'real spam' and the proprietor doesn't want the reputuation of "good spam" to suffer!) * do feel free to be serious or silly and enjoy the company of others while you are here. By all means POST if you have something to say, even to start another topic , we can handle multiple chats, we're a CAFE!!! But be courteous and don't disrupt a conversation just to disrupt it. Come on in! The bar is stocked with coffees, teas, juices and waters from around the world. And purple napkins, of course! The lighting is low, the golden oak counters and tables glow with inviting warmth. Near the window, the lighting is brighter, as comfy, plush leather armchairs wait for those who'd like to read a book while relaxing to music or just lazily watch the world go by.

PLEASE NOTEThis is a modified reminder that I've posted before in reply to someone asking "can we spam the cafe". It still holds true, so I'm going to repeat it periodically for anyone who hasn't seen it. Read the first post of the thread, it's NOT a spam zone. If you want to discuss you grades, a problem with a teacher,the weather, your neighbor's new car etc.....etc.. (real life conversations) this is the place. I don't mind a SMALL amount of spam but when the Cafe gets to be 8 pages in one day and it's all one liner pure spam, I have to ask people not to do it because most of the members who would come to talk about their day or things that they want advice or sympathy or cheers on, will not post in that atmosphere. I want you to be comfy here, but not at the expense of other members. So the answer is NO, I don't want to see page after page of roleplay spam or one liner spamfests that could be done on msn or aim etc. because our goal is to TALK WITH one another , not fill up a cafe in five hours. HOWEVER, I'm not gonna jump on anyone for a few of these kinds of things, only if it gets out of hand.

First non-Cloudy post?
EDIT: Yay. The day bodes well. A new avatar, new smilies, and Ziroc apparently feeling good enough to do all of this. Besides, we have a great cloudless (sorry, Cloudy!) morning and we are going to get up to 7o today. Did anyone listen to the President's press conference?

Willow, i haven't worked the last two weeks. Things are kinda slow here at the moment, so i took some time off, so i could do things around the house. I'm redecorating, and there's lots of painting to do, among other things.
I have to wait until March 25 for new carpeting, so until that date, i'm sitting in pretty much an empty house. That's why i'm sleeping on the couch, like i said in the previous Cafe. That's one of the few things that's still here. A couch, a TV, and my computerdesk. I kept those things here, otherwise i'd be bored like hell.

I heard part of the speech, but confess I was asleep for the first half!

Morning Attalus. [img]smile.gif[/img] It seems Cloudy likes me more than you since she seems to be a permanent guest up here. LOL! Cloudy, I´m surprised you woke up in the middle of the PC. They usually are too boring to stay awake to. LOL!

Willow, yep, it's either the couch, or a stretcher at my mom's place. And my mom... well... she talks a little too much. I'd rather sleep a little uncomfy, than spending an entire evening listening to my mothers adventures.

Cloudy, nope, not even a little one. All over Robin's egg blue. I took the old dog out and didn't even need a coat.
Willow, be sure that you make cookies for Cloudy, if she's going to be a permanent guest. Johnny, I think I would take your course. Staying with my mother would give me the pip. Stratos, hi. Hope you don't get lost in the snow.
