Cloudy's Cafe

Come 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 NOTE

This 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.

One wonders if todays speed freaks will one day slow and let me recapture the slowest FP record. Actually, one knows the answer is a negative one...

Hey J, how are you today?

Cloudbringer · 02-25-2003, 07:23 AM

Good day to everyone! I'm just finishing breakfast and heading to work. We had to remove a Q-tip from my cat's possession this morning, apparently he was doing the trash-hunt in the bathroom again... sigh....

harleyquinn · 02-25-2003, 07:29 AM

Cloudy, it's nice to know that my kitty isn't the only one who does that. She even steals the toilet paper if I don't put it on the spool. Does yours ever seem to magically find rubber bands and twist ties even though you don't have any, or is that just mine?
Good morning everyone.

Let me help you finish that pot of coffee Cloudy. [img]smile.gif[/img] In desperate need of a caffeine fix. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Exellent, thanks, how are you ? Can you feel spring in the air ? It's weather like this that brings a smile on my face.

Legolas · 02-25-2003, 07:45 AM

Yes, it's nice and warm today. Doesn't feel like winter at all [img]smile.gif[/img]
Cloudy, our cat never does things like that. But then, we tend to keep the bathroom door shut

harleyquinn · 02-25-2003, 08:15 AM

I have a question, and I don't want to start a whole thread on it since just one person answering will be fine, I don't need 10 people to tell me the same thing or give me more than a simple definition.
My brother's one of those people who won't give you a straight answer if you ask him something and treats you like you're dumb for not knowing. He has a new webpage that he calls a Blog. My question is, what's a BLOG? I tried asking him, but he said, You know, a web Blog (ooh, big help) LOL

HEY, there's coffee? SHARE! It's the only thing that keeps me from taking a nose dive into the keyboard.
If there's anyone out there with warm weather, please, describe it to me, it's been so long that I don't remember what it's like anymore [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]
