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.

Did I get the record? Did I? I'll get it, just you wait...

Oooh, one of the first to greet you all.
Hi Legolas, haven't spoken to you in a long time. How are you these days? Are you going to play EQII when it comes out? |

Hey Irongrinder [img]smile.gif[/img]
When it comes out? There've been delays then? I thought you've been playing EQ2 for a few months already. Since appearantly you haven't, I think I'll be playing a test round first to see if it's possible for me to play on a more serious level at all (time-wise). I need the time to get my kilt back, you know |

Yeah I had some trouble too yesterday MagiK. My computer couldn´t decide if she wanted to connect to IW or not.
Hi Legolas. Where have you been lurking? And the record is now somewhere near incredible 40 minutes I think. Hello Cloudy. I take it you haven´t been feeling bad or have had too much to do at work. No new cafe for two days.. LOL! [img]smile.gif[/img] I hope you got rid of your cold.

Good morning, little friends, how do you do? - Argh, wait, that was the cartoon I saw as a kid. MagiK, we are getting some rain, but it will be up in the 40's all weekend. Hi, Willow, our snow is almost all melted. Soggy dreary mess.

40 minutes? I thought it was still stuck at 12
Well, I'd better find myself another hobby then Lurking... I don't lurk. I don't trust you people to post 'where is Legolas' threads in an attempt to lure me out just yet. But, you never know. I may start lurking more in the future [img]tongue.gif[/img] |
