Ok, so I decided to create a new Chatroom, because the old one was getting pretty....old!
Everyone may post here, as well as in the good'ol Flameroom...I mean, Chatroom
I would like to keep this Chatroom civilized. Well, as civilized as most forum threads are (doesnt mean that you all have to be polite like Oatesy, lol).
So for this reason, I may update the OP of this thread in the future, posting certain thread rules, as I see fit.
For now though, post away, and everyone is welcome!

What does NAO mean?
"NAO" is the Internet, emphatic vernacular of "now".
Also, HOLYCRAPIT'SIROKONESSANDSHE'SBACKWE'RESOGETTINGTHEOLDGUARDBACKTOGETHER!
Basically this thread was being ghosted by the ancient gods of the forums.
Until now.
Of course, "now". Cewl.
Just wanna say to you Whiskey144, that "other" guy. Has plans with her. Not neccesserily reciprocated. In most cases like that, the girl isn't even aware of said plan.
He was handing you manure in other words. Eliminating the competition. She must like you. If you like her, go get her! We're rooting for you!
Greetings Oatesy03. You must have a beautiful voice. I sang solo for Christmas Eve mass at our local church. I was so shy.
Thanks!
I'm actually going to be singing in various concerts at my school, and they're always recorded, so once I've got the recordings (I'm one of the three AS-Level music candidates, so we're always asked to do the processing etc of recordings in the mixing studio) I'm thinking I might stick them on youtube or something. Then everybody can hear me sing!
And I have to say that something I never regret doing was performing solo in front of everybody on my choral course. It was nerve-wracking, but so worth it. I'm sure you were great!
Practise, that's the ticket. I didn't enuf. I'm afraid my voice lost it's strength, and no on in the back could hear me..... I was mortified. But lived. I don't regret it either.
And I for one would love to hear you sing. Please do put it on youtube. That would be so awesome.
A star in our midst.
My shining star: Well, you can guess, if you've been reading back. Seriously, listen to her music, its awesome.
And the more I talk to her the more I realise how amazing she is! [e digicons]:')[/e]
Woo Hoo. Sounds magical. And, you have something in common. Sweeet.
{no I haven't read to far back. But, now I will}
It's for people who can't spell.....but makes them look trendy....
I hope you guys took a minute for The 70th anniversary of Pearl Harbor today.
(See Whiskey, I didn't demand it this time )
..............
I don't think that she does- because I told her how I felt, and she told me she only saw me as a friend. I can live with that.
Punchbag, OTOH, well................
I think I'm going to start going into more detail with my plan to.....remove...him.
Well...............I can agree with that mostly- but I generally use such variations as especially emphatic expressions. I don't particularly care for looking trendy, and I can spell quite well.
...........I didn't actually know it was Pearl Harbor Day until one of my coworkers asked the date, and then remarked on it.
Emphasis is kinda screwed when the audience has to ask WTF it means.
Communication takes two.
Jargon is lost on most.
....like it took me a while to work out what 'FOAD' meant....then I IP-banned the twit.
I will now attempt to make the biggest post in the history of the Chatroom. Those of you who are too lazy to read long posts, run for your lives now. Those who usually read long posts, prepare yourselves, this will be HUGE!
TL;DR?? I dont care, nope.
Oatesy's reply #1610:
And whats the back up for the back-ups? Who backs up the TA?
Just kidding...
Let us know how that went, if it happens.
My friends are much worse than that, and its pretty standard here.
Its that whole notion of society, which says that the more girls you sleep with in your life, the better your social status as well as state of happiness you are in, for the guys. And same goes for girls, but on a lower scale, maybe.
Just to give a minor example of the way these people think:
I was hanging out with a friend of mine at his place, who invited 3 of his other friends (I barely know them), so we can all hang out and chat. So these 2 guys I dont know (my friend's pals), were talking about girls they know, and which girls are easy to get in bed with, and which ones they arent. Cause thats all they think you know. Anyway, the subject turned to a specific girl who is well-known to not sleep with anybody, and how much they have tried to get her to do that, each one of the 3 guys there. So 1 of them asks the other guy, "why is that? Does she have a low self-esteem?" The other says: "No. She actually has a very high self-esteem, she appreciates herself quite a lot". 1st guy says: "What the hell! This is so weird. Why would she not sleep with lots of guys if she has a really high self-esteem? It doesnt make any sense. She should sleep with just about anyone who is willing to do it." Second guy "I have no idea. Like you said, its really weird, she must have some psychological problems, or child trauma, something like that."
LOL, they actually thought that high self-esteem = sleep with anybody, and low self-esteem, the exact opposite.
How pathetic are they? Not only they just want to "get their peckers into the nearest available free space", like you said, not only they think its an accomplishment to do just that, they also have no idea how normal people's minds work, because their brains are definitely, without a doubt damaged. Brain damage, thats the only way I can explain it.
Looking forward to that song!
Also, I really think she needs to get noticed more, and maybe collaborate with people who have professional recording equipment, because I'm pretty sure her recordings are amateur, and she is that good. Imagine what she could do in a recording studio! That voice could do wonders, trust me I know a talent when I see one
And, writing that song for you? That should mean something, for sure.

Whiskey's reply #1611:
Weirdest thing I've ever heard about Catholics, so far
Agreed, even I, who's not so religious, can see how blasphemous that is. Pretty damn weird I say.
Thats not a good enough reason for that.
Sorry, but I dismiss the Bible as a "holy book", its just a book...in my book! Seriously.
I was kidding actually, but...YAY you gonna ask her out! Lets see how that goes.
Its called "humor"? As in, I was joking...again??
....
Wait until you meet my friends. Oh wait, you cant. Lucky you
No, she WILL be Limey Girl, when they are officially together, bf-gf relationship at least. Right now, she's just Limey Man's guitar friend
----------------------------------------------
Whiskey's reply #1613: Man, I dont know where to start lol. I dont mean to get you more mad than you already are, but that RAGE was sooooo amusing! Oh sorry, troll qualities still there I need a moment.
...............
Ok ready, hit me.
Good call. I think I would prefer "crapbag", just because its funnier, but "punchbag" has a more "OMGIWANTTOKILLTHISGUY" feel to it.
Ok, hold on. Considering that she wasnt present at that moment, you could just tell him that you ARE interested in a romantic fashion about her, to kind of set him off track, but then again, he could screw you over by spilling the beans to her, which would be bad. So hmm, tough call.
Seemed to think so?? Whether they are together or they arent, and if they are, I think you can pretty much tell, from the way she greets him, and....everything else.
And yes, asking her if they are together, can only be good for you, because if they arent, you win AND make him look like a tool. If they are, you havent really lost anything, and at least you found out how things are...at the moment.
Ask her, its just a simple question, and you are friends with her, nothing wrong with asking your friend if they have a gf/bf.
Sounds like someone wants to take you out of the "game" so they can "score" without any "obstacles". Oh sorry for the expression, but it is quite obvious what he's trying to do there, otherwise, why else would he tell you that?? You arent friends with him or anything.
Whooaaa, seems we have a love triangle right there. Or at least 2 guys who want 1 girl, and that can never end up good for everyone
LMAO That was absolutely hilarious! Hey, we can even call him potatohead!
I really dont think that kicking his butt would help your relationship with guitar friend at all. Sure, you would teach him a lesson, and MAYBE get him out of the picture, but its the wrong approach, I'm afraid. And I said MAYBE, because if you do kick his butt, then she may feel sorry for him, and be a little hostile to you. Especially if you provoke him into a fight.
Trust me, there are better ways of taking him out than this. Instead of using muscles, use your brain, and try to make him look like a fool, and screw him over in HER eyes. Doesnt matter what you or other people think. She (guitar friend), needs to think he is a big fat tool, an idiot, a loser, etc.
I am sure there are many cunning ways to do just that, but as I dont know either the guitar friend, nor punchbag, I cant tell you how to do that. I'm sure that you can come up with something good though.
Just remember, you are kind of in a short leash here. You shouldnt waste any time, unless you want to sit back and watch Mr punchbag asking Ms MostWanted out on a date. She may say no, but she may also very well say yes. I dont know if you want to take that chance, but if I were you, I wouldnt.
Plan carefully, and think ahead. If you play this right you win, and he losses. And yes, this IS a game, and may the best man win, simple as that.
Also, yeah I know I am really throwing lots of my personal thoughts/opinions rather than objective 3rd party suggestions on this one, but I dont care lol. Take it or leave it.
Last but no least, judging from everything you said so far about guitar friend and stuff, I am pretty sure you love her and this isnt a mere infatuation and a little more than that, like you said. You've got all the symptoms of Love, and I am afraid there is no cure, my friend
'Tis ok. I know how you feel.
And who cares about the RAGE-post? We all do it from time to time. Except maybe Limey Man, he's...different. He just drinks his cup of tea with lime, and no harm no foul
^This. Be nice and welcome the new people please.
Gonna answer for myself here.
1. That doesnt help at all.
2. Each and every time I did this, the pillow ended up ripped off and with feathers flying in my room (with a single punch). Good for pillow fights, but bad for a raging maniac who wants to kill every feather around him.
Yes please dont. Lets keep it civilized.
Seems to me that its the latter. And if I were in Whiskey's shoes, I wouldnt let that creep touch her, because I agree with the "control freak" comment. Then again, trying to take him out seems like a control freak-y thing to do as well, but its preferable than to let him hurt guitar friend, but thats just me.
I would also like to add, that if she (guitar friend) is a smart lady, can separate the good from the bad apples, in which case Whiskey could sit back and see what happens, but again, I dont know either of the 2 people, so I am just guessing here.
And yes, like you said, these people do it for the ego boost, as well as the social status and other benefits they think there are.
I'll say it again Whiskey, be fully prepared for plans to go awry. No plan survives contact with the enemy, to use a suitably military expression. A relationship with your guitar friend may never occur, and you need to be prepared for any number of new situations. So don't get lost in the possible futures, but focus on the present. There is always a balance to be found.
If this man is your better in her eyes, then that is a fact which we must accept. Play clean, play fair, best man wins in the end.
(Man, I think I am the wrong person giving advice here...)
Now, here's some good and well-thought advice.
@Whiskey: I strongly suggest that you listen to Oatesy, he is really sensible, and offers well-thought objective advice on this one, unlike me.
Sorry, but I had to say it, I fully agree with everything Oatesy said so far. Do the right thing
You think she is able to see what a tool punchbag is? If not, then you could try helping her see that
That way, you stick to fair-play, and you win in discretion.
Thats not a solution Whiskey, thats madness and jealousy driving your thoughts and feelings.
Pretty straightforward and efficient. I approve.
I cant tell if you're serious, or if you're joking, but if it is the former, then you are nuts lol
YES! THATS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!
Good luck, and be cool, just like you are when you write to us here.
More arseholes than you can count.
And if he was clever and malicious and controlling like you said, Whiskey wouldnt know about him until he managed to get Whiskey to look like a fool in guitar friend's eyes. There are many ways one can do that.
Oh hey, its Joe Tribiany from Friends! Whatsup man
Please stop doing that Whiskey, the new guys can post here if they want to.
Indeed, so so random.
IROKONESS has been posting in the karma game for quite some time now. I think you mean she is back in the Chatroom specifically?
Its Kewl, with a K.
Yet you never post anything here in the Chatroom. I demand that you give me youtube links with you singing something
Also, free MP3 downloads please, kthanks.
to that.
to Oatesy to give him some incentive to post on youtube.
Yes, and please tell her to post more of her work on her YouTube channel, if you want.
No, because I am not American, but I watched a documentary about Pearl Harbor yesterday. It was very good, but I already knew all that stuff, so meh.
I hope you dont plan on removing him by force. Like I already said, there are better ways to do that, than use violence.
It doesnt matter. NAO is so much better than NOW, because its funnier, it makes the reader pronounce it naO with an O at the end, and also its kinda cute, not necessarily in a girlish way.
NAO > NOW in some occasions.
Well, you see thats different, because it is very insulting, and doesnt even help amuse anybody else than the writer.
I am done NAO. Replied to everything, and those who wont read my post...good for you!
Have a nice day, and Whiskey keep it cool and civilized. Mostly in real life I mean
P.S. Glad to see IROK here. I hope she will become a regular
That's a motherfucking post right there.
"New guys"?
I'm three million six hundred and eighty nine thousand two hundred and ninetyseven Users older than you..... ...
You ARE new to the Chatroom, because you dont usually hang out here, nor did you used to hang out here
So yes, you are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay older than me in the forums, but kinda new to the Chatroom thingie.
Same goes for the other new guys who posted the last few days, like Redneck and Heavenfall.
IKR
Pssst......it's a forum thread .....just like all the other forum threads....
Wow morpheas, well done. I read it all. Real good advice.
I would like that.
Those poor people Do they have to read this too?
Oh, and this isn't the real chatroom, the real chatroom thread was started by Elfkura about 9 years ago...
I thought you were regular?
Not in Stardock forums, you pointy eared Vulcan.
Although they seem to have conjoined or how you say, melded.
I'm everywhere
*snipped incredibly long post for length*
There's a lot there. Wow. I think it is indeed the longest post in the REAL Chatroom.
That being said, mostly I just really want to beat the crap out of punchbag, because he rubs me the wrong way with his "I own her" attitude. Also, WRT "break her heart, I break you", well, she's my closest (nigh-on only) friend right now. I have the same view WRT some boy asking my sister out- he breaks her heart, I break him. Probably his face.
But punchbag? I think I might go the extra mile and break something more noticeable. Just to rub it in that he's a worthless sack of spoiled shit. IMO, of course.
WRT "taking punchbag out"- I'm going to straight-up say that, if he hadn't made the whole "back of to let her grow" comment, I'd have no problem with him. I wouldn't enjoy his presence, but neither would I shun him. Now, I want to beat his face in. But you're right- there are other, more indirect, and thus arguably more satisfying, methods.
This will totally turn into a "JUST. AS. PLANNED." moment.
Also, Life's a Game.
................You know, you never can tell when you'll need stuff like that- after all, a towel is one of the most useful tools in the universe (hence the carriage of two). At least according to Douglas Adams.
Oh, yeah, and homemade flail: DON'T MESS WITH ME, I WILL CRUSH YOUR RIBS.
I consider what I'm about to say both a really good and really bad thing, but quite honestly I don't think there's anyone at the church I attend who could be as clever, cunning, malicious, and devious as myself. I think that's really good because if/when a time comes that requires an individual with those qualities, I can and will step up.
But it's a very harsh burden to bear sometimes. It isn't a pleasant thing to know that one simply doesn't care if they have to do horrible things to another human being- but sometimes that is what's needed.
