DEVERE 55 Posted October 15 (edited) Things I have learned during my time on Atomic I’ve been around the forums for just over 11 years now - pretty active during the first year or two (sorry 'bout that) slacked off and then absent for a few more years - its kinda cool to be kicking back in the Green Room and catching up with old acquaintances again….Thanks @Chaos.Lady for getting my log in fixed. I’ve learnt a lot during my time here and just wanted to say a big "Thank You" to all I’ve gotten to know over the time. DON’T SHOUT! It hurts the eardrums. There’s some super funny buggers in here - given the wide demographic age the humour is much varied. Advice is plentiful - be it relationship, tech, food, pet, gardening or anything in between Most of us are up for a good strong debate on a wide variety of subjects Spam is bad mmm’kay? Rankspam - not so much. Acronyms are fun….and confusing…. IANAL is not a new sexual position Visual poisoning is a real thing (Lemon Party, Blue Waffle, Bukake etc) - keep bleach on hand Spelling and grammar is super important….. as 1shot1kill will quickly point out. Don’t feed the trolls and finally - ignore Takoma Edited October 15 by DEVERE 4 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrisg 668 Posted October 15 Hmm, Never bothered to get my earlier post count restored tbh, never really taken much notice. I think the only time I ever did was as it approached 10,000 and that was long ago. Not too hard to ignore Takoma these days, he's not been around for ages, unless you manage to wake him up with this Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eveln 1,136 Posted October 15 I don't know what a blue waffle is, or a bukake either. The latter does sorta sound like I should know it ... Perhaps I once did and have miraculously wiped it from my mind. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Never really taken much notice you say? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrisg 668 Posted October 15 She did actually, just not in this thread - what's your beef now ? - you really are beginning to get on my nerves... Of course you shouldn't really, you're just a twat... Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kimmo 238 Posted October 16 Takoma was usually entertaining and IIRC almost always courteous... never saw the start of the running joke to ignore him. I've learnt to ignore Leonid and twinair, for the most part. Show this post? Yeah, probably not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DEVERE 55 Posted October 16 Yeah I dunno how the "Ignore Takoma" started - he's a decent guy from what I know of him (met him once IRL) and he did make me a very nice Avatar @eveln bukake, lemon party and the like - don't go googling lol.... its not pleasant lol. Lots of members MIA these days - I guess life just rolls on and people have other things to do. The Green Room certainly ain't the party it used to be. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrisg 668 Posted October 16 No it isn't but Tak is indeed a very, very pleasant guy. I have not seen him for a number of years, sort of dropped off the radar, but I'm sure he is out there somewhere Last I heard he was managing a paint store down Rockingham way I think. The origins of "ignore Takoma" are lost in the midst of time - and so it should be Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eveln 1,136 Posted October 16 @DEVERE iirc it was LogicprObe back in the day who warned me not to Google lemon party. Like a " red rag to a bull " , 're Takoma, I too was given the same spiel. My impression was that he was likely tooooo sane for his peers round here, hence the " ". "ignore" bit was just pure unadulterated jealousy @Kimmo you don't ignore those guys. lol but you just lurve to spat 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smadge1 104 Posted October 18 Takoma popped up on the Discord, but he's not particularly active there either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Something something @hectorbustnuts had much much much better taste in movies/everything, relative to @Takoma. 'Ignore Takoma, he likes bad stuff and is bad'.
