looking at the membership so far, nothing good can come of this.

ROFL

Thanks for the invite.

Thanks for the invite.

I'm just looking to start something a little more open, less "hardcore", that sort of thing.

No language filter, easy rules, but a place where lighter personalities can also feel at home.

 

[Chad Landry]

There are a lot of folks I'd like to have in here, who wouldn't fit well in my current favorite forum.

 

[Chad Landry]

And when I say "light" foul language, I don't mean you can't say "****", when you want, I just mean that it's not encouraged to have dialog that rivals the script of Pacino's "Scarface".

 

[RussP]

Dragoon's here...ah, hell.... Is he here representing the angels' side?

CJ, are you still in Italy? Did you look into getting some holsters made from the infamous Italian leathers? Forgot to ask that earlier.

 

[Chad Landry]

Yep. I'm still in Italy. I plan to stay here until October 25th. I'm still learning the very basics of the language. I'm learning how important grammar is to a language. It doesn't take long to figure out that knowing a whole bunch of words is worthless if you can't form them into sentences.

No, I haven't checked into any Italian leather holsters. Prices are very high on everything over here. I paid 10 Euro for a 3-pack of FTL T-shirts yesterday. That's about $15 US, and that's the best price I could find anywhere.

I saw some leather jackets on the rack, and I couldn't believe the prices.

At first I thought the prices were high because everything is made here. I was wrong. They have the same sort of imported crap that we have in the states, just less of it.

 

[Chad Landry]

Regarding Dragoon, even outlaws have friends on "the other side".

 

[Warp]

In.

Thanks for the invite...now your reputation is ruined

 

[Chad Landry]

So what are you folks up to this Saturday morning?

It's 5pm over here, and I'll probably be going to dinner a little later. I'm having wine this evening, so the rental car stays parked and I'll be taking a taxi. I won't be "carrying" either.

 

[Critias]

Howdy, all.

Off to sling some dice around and move little pewter robots around with my buddies, blowin' one another up, talking crap, and similar assorted nonsense. It's a great way to blow off steam after a work week. Nothin' like playing with toys -- *ahem* I mean "engaging in tactical miniature wargaming" -- to feel like a kid again.

Just got back from a business trip to Spain after a very long series of delays and cancellations... I thoroughly enjoy European food, but right now I'm really glad to be home and I'm enjoying a full sized mug of strong-assed American Navy Coffee. So I'm enjoying that, and getting caught up on what's happening on GT.

Thanks for the invite.

 

[Chad Landry]

Coffee is a problem for me, over here. Starbucks seem to think they're following Italian coffee traditions. I'm guessing that their founders have never visited Italy and ordered "un caffe".

I am to virtually completely forget about reading and posting in these groups. I do everything through my User Control Panel. Then I just hit the button and go to the first new post in any and every thread I have subscribed to/posted in. But there isn't anything in the CP, to speak of, for the groups.

 

[Chad Landry]

Yeah, I'm hoping to get forum status out of this. I've requested permission from Eric to lose the language filter, and informed him that I'd like to make it a forum.

I hope that, if that happens, I can ask folks for help as mods.

We'll see. I've been enjoying Project Mayhem, but I have a lot of friends on GT who would never fit that mold. I don't want to leave them behind in this cool new world which Eric has been working on.

 

[Mrs. VR]

Hi sweetie! I'm thrilled to be actually INVITED to a group. :hugs:

Hey everyone,thanks for the invite.

 

[Chad Landry]

If anyone has suggestions for invitations, let me know. I have 41 invitations sent out right now, not counting those of you who have already accepted. I'm inviting others as I read the forums and slap myself on the head, saying, "Why didn't I think of ______ before?"
