jimdahl Posted May 10, 2005 Posted May 10, 2005 (edited) You can have airplanes, we'll take RFID tags. No doubt that if Fargo's gambles in RFID manufacturing pay out like this one did, that will also be great news for the region economically. However, I still don't understand the need to turn good economic development news for the region into divisive Fargo vs. G.F. smack; please confine that sort of thing to the appropriate sites.

Did you see the smiley faces? You're the one turning it into smack. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted May 10, 2005 Posted May 10, 2005 From the heading of "good advice": Don't ignore warnings from, or continue with the smack toward, the guy who can post as "administrator". Quote
jimdahl Posted May 10, 2005 Posted May 10, 2005 Conversation moved here because this is where discussion of posting standards belongs. The standard we try to use is that posting something solely to try to aggravate/get a rise from other posters is smack/trolling; a commonly identifiable pattern is an attempt to counter a positive statement with an off-topic negative one (e.g. in a discussion about how the hockey team is doing well, an opposing fan countering, "yeah, how'd your equestrian team do?" == irrelevant smack). Second, I don't really understand the misconception that smack is reduced to non-smack by the addition of smiley faces, but I just don't agree. Rather, I've noticed a strong correlation between smiley faces and the presence of smack. Comments are welcome. Quote

Fedorov Posted May 12, 2005 Posted May 12, 2005 Good thing I used smiley faces. Otherwise, someone might think I made a personal attack. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why would you do that when you can just have me do the personal attacks? Quote
