I'm going with Nicks on that one. Perfectly manicured too. Ok, who has the nose hair? Nicks or Buckingham?

But the burning question on everybody's minds: which would win in a fight? Nicks or Buckingham. My money is on Nicks.

1. Stevie. She has some long ones... buy a trimmer, woman!

2. Stevie would totally win in a fight. She'd uppercut Lindsey with her tambourine and then choke him with chiffon while performing a naked war dance thanking Rhiannon for her strength.

Next question....

Who does God love more? Stevie or Lindsey?

Right again. And then she'd twirl on his strat.

Moony 09-10-2005 03:59 AM

It's a fair cop.

Mari 09-10-2005 06:21 AM

You're all wrong. Stevie might win the physical fight, but after that when she sees Lindsey feeling all sorry for himself and blaming her for having such sharp nails she'll let him be the winner anyway.
She's a woman!

Miss Vicky 09-10-2005 08:31 AM

I know nothing of either one's toenails.

However, I think Lindsey might win a physical fight. All he'd have to do is flail his arms around a la "Come" and hit her upside the head. Then she'd topple over in her big ol' boots and weighed down with all that chiffon and crash to the floor. :lol:

Oh please. Miss Grannykins couldn't fight her way out of a paper bag. She'd be about equally matched with Queen Elizabeth.

I always did want to see Marjorie Main get Granny Stevie in a wrestling chokehold.

Stevie doesn't need to be able to fight.
Not when she can have one of her hangers-on do it.

Now that's living! :nod:

Johnny, you gotta admit: wouldn't you love seeing Stevie Nicks & Marjorie Main in a wrestling match?

You know, when you first said Marjorie Main, I thought of Ma Kettle... but then I thought I was wrong, and that Ma Kettle was actually Marjorie Lord.

Hmm. Who was Marjorie Lord then, and how do I know her? :confused:

(Oh, and I personally think it would be a hoot to watch Ma Kettle wrestle ANYONE. :nod: )

ReFleetwoodMac 09-10-2005 03:24 PM

Ah. My very own tribute thread. I gotta say, it was a harrowing few days. But the moderators here being the untrusting, power drunken control freaks that they are, disposed of me with absolutely no evidence or common sense backing up their wild claims. Although they make a good omelet.

Johnny Stew 09-10-2005 03:27 PM

Ah-ha... a quick visit to IMDB.com, and the mystery's solved. Marjorie Lord was on 'Make Room For Daddy.'

Two VERY different Marjories! :o

Perhaps you'd like to let folks know that you and Lux had both used the "Schmoopy" ID, and that the matching IPs which resulted from that are why you were mistakenly banned.

Unless you'd rather stick with the "power-mad moderators" angle?

Ah, yes, the identical threads that were posted (about four times) and re-posted even after they had been moved.

I hope I'm not the only one to say WELCOME BACK, BOBO. Maybe I should start a thread. And on your birthday too! That sucksssss. I don't understand the whole Schmoopy thing but it was you and Lux just using it as an alternate name thing? Anyway, I'm glad you're back. Still want to do the Cool Whip thing?

That's exactly right. But you mentioned "other accusations," which I took to be a reference to the warning you received in regards to those threads.

At any rate, your username was banned because of the shared IP between you, "Schmoopy" and Lux. It was initially thought that "ReFleetwoodMac" was also a secondary ID being used in the same manner as "Schmoopy."
Which is why an explanation was given to Lux, as opposed to you.

I think Lindsey WOULD be the equivalent of Queen Elizabeth in a fight.

amber 09-10-2005 04:29 PM

So, what was the mistake? Why does he get to come back? Was it because it was his birthday? If him and lux were doing it, why wasn't lux banned and then let back? Why do people use two addresses? What's the point? If they want to talk to themselves, can't they just do it with their own name? Or in the privacy of their homes like I do?
I'd like that omelet now, please. :)

Edit - wait, so you just banned "schmoopy", who still actually exists as both Refleetwoodmac and lux, but is not an actual person?

Is this board talk?

Seems like it should be a PM conversation.

You're absolutely right, Curtis.

ReFleetwoodMac brought it up publicly, so I answered publicly.
But it is better suited for a private conversation.

No, no, no Johnny. I meant the conversations going on that don't make any sense, not your dialogue with RFM.

well, don't you think the rest of us should understand so that...uh...we can avoid the same pitfalls? I mean, me and my friend were just going to make up a new user name and share it. Should we not do that? If we did, would the new shared identity be banned, or one or both of us? If one, why one?
:D

:D

That's a good point. So is it that you're not supposed to have two user names or that two peeps can't share one (like Lux and Bobo did as *Schmoopy*)? Why is it bad either way?

Johnny Stew 09-10-2005 05:13 PM

Multiple IDs are frowned open for various reasons (including the fact that they clutter up the system).

If they're used for "harmless" purposes, they're simply removed and the main user is issued a warning.

When they're used for the harrassment of other Ledgies or the perpetuation of arguments and feuds, the ID is removed and the main user receives a strike.

Lux was not issued a strike because "Schmoopy" was being used for relatively harmless reasons. But, in removing "Schmoopy," we mistakenly thought that "ReFleetwoodMac" was also a secondary ID (because of the matching IP address) rather than an individual user, and that username was banned, too. When the situation was explained, ReFleetwoodMac was immediately reinstated.

Personally, I don't see why anyone needs another ID anyway. One username should be all anyone needs to post their messages.
And if folks are just looking to play games and mess around, they should give AIM, Yahoo, ICQ or any of the various other messenger programs and chatrooms a try, rather than using up our bandwidth (which results in outages to our service).

lagringader&r 09-10-2005 05:17 PM

I hope this gets read coz I don't see why peeps are ganging up on Bobo. I've talked to Bobo on AIM and we turned on *voice* and he is a really, really nice guy. He's normal too but his sense of humor is really off the wall. David, I'm not saying that you're wrong but do you think that off the wall might be confused with disturbing? I just don't see what Bobo did wrong except for the user name thing and isn't that name gone now? I just don't like to see peeps get picked on coz they're *different*. Not fair.

One more thing. I really like you and you always make me laugh but why did you publicly post this. Is it ok for me to reveal the identity of the poster who sent me a very hurtful and disturbing pm after I used the term *hard on* in a post? I never revealed his identity here and I really don't know why. Maybe I should and tell everybody exactly what he said to me over that one little post. I don't get it. The guy's an a**hole but I didn't see the need to drag him through the mud even though he dragged me through it in private. Should I?

I've said it before, and I'll repeat it... if someone receives an improper PM (harrassing, threatening, unwanted sexual advances, etc.) through the Ledge's private messaging system, please be sure to report it to one of the moderators.

Our messaging system is not meant to be abused, and we'll put a stop to it so you won't have to continue dealing with it.

Do you mean the mods? No one's ganging up on him. The only reason his account got deleted with no warning is because we thought it was just one of Lux's multiple IDs. When we realized he was in fact a real person, he was reinstated.

Ok maybe I misunderstood. Sorry. I just don't get the whole user name thing I guess.

Could be. I knew I was being toyed with. But I got really disturbed when Bobo never wrote me back.

Let that be a lesson to ALL of you: if you're going to toy with me, I will decide when the conversation is to end, not you!!

Aww.. come on. Sly dig, that one.
I can understand that you don't want people to use multiple usernames, but come on.. those 50 posts Schmoopy made, using up your bandwidth? If that is the real problem I know a poster or two you should look at.

Which, just in case, isn't what I mean. Everyone should be able to post as much as they want.

Ok, 50 posts from Schmoopy... but if we allowed everyone to have multiple IDs, then how many posts are we talking about?

Yes, we should all be allowed to post as much as we want. And, last time I looked, we are allowed.
But we certainly generate enough posts as individuals that we don't need to be logging off and logging in under additional usernames, too. And to do what? Talk to ourselves? Respond to our own threads?

There's no good reason to do that, and it just eats up our bandwidth.
