I find it HILARIOUS that any problem people raise over at the FC is taken as a personal attack on D by the moderators and other fans! OK, so the TMT dvd is set to wide screen mode which means that if you don't have a widescreen tv, some of the picture is cropped off. That pretty much sucks. But if you SAY it sucks, you're treated like a petulant child and told to have some respect for darren's feelings!!

I've had it up to here.

Thank God I'm not on the FC much anymore if ever.

Full screen it cuts off the picture on both sides, can't help it. Widescreen is that movie theater picture with the 2 black bars on bottom and top, which shows thew whole picture.

They should LIKE OTHER DvD made sure that this set had both options. Which is their fault if it didn't. Sorry FC, not everybody has widescreen or likes that.

It really baffles me how adults can act worse than 2 year olds.

WHA??? Oh bloody hell, how stupid is that?
I saw the thread the other day when it was only like 3 posts or something, but blimey.
So someone doesn't like the fact that they get their dvd cut up on the screen cause its set into widescreen... and the mods or whomever are saying that cus they don't like this little clitch it'll break Darren's heart???

:lmao: PMSL!!! :lmao:

Sorry... i just burst out loud with laughing... oh god... so funny!
Blessed be, Geo Toni x~X~x

Well the particular mod who has been trying to create drama all over the board today isn't particularly rational when it comes to Darren. Or ever, actually. She's really not a people person by any stretch.

In a way, I can understand mods and others getting pissed off with certain people, who, despite being told how to fix the problem, just want to whinge, but they should be professional, and if they can't be professional, they should STFU.

Oh, and if Darren is a special snowflake who can't take criticism, I advise him not to visit his chat room in the near future. The DVD has not gone down well with certain people and they will not shut up about it.

I think there is one, possibly two moderators who are completely reasonable and understandable in their attempts to protect or defend him. The remaining lot (his sister included) are usually crazy irrational and unprofessional when it comes to anyone even remotely criticising something, anything. I mean, the other day one of them (most of us probably know who) got unecessarily defensive because someone said something about wally ?? It's just silly.

I completely agree that the best thing for him if he does not take criticism well is to stay well away from the forums because...well it just leads to an atmosphere where people are terrified of offending him. Hell, I even got told off by him months back for saying I am a fan of his arch enemy, simon amstell... :huh:

I don't have a problem with any of the mods really, they're all human and that's more than evident at times. I wish they'd chill the hell out though.

PRAY the moderators never join this forum. If they do, they will be reading a butt load of criticism that will make them so furious! The way we talk about D and then them on here, they would kick us off in a heartbeat (if it was their forum that is). BUT they aren't on this forum, so I feel better we can talk about whatever the hell we want without getting yelled at my Darren or the other mods.

Can't take a freaking criticism, aww poor babies, being treated so appallingly.


To Darren: STICK YOU YOUR SHOES!

To Moderators: GET A FREAKING LIFE!



.........................................................................******************

My supervisor Ray is a A hole! Long story short.....

This morning he wanted me to run the freaking doughnuts to all the highlighted room on the map..to all 3 airplane hangars. He just gave me a map, and told me to take the doughnuts to them.

I have NO IDEA which boxes go to what room. Not a single person has shown me the 'doughnut run' routine. On the maps there was ONE intruction as to which box was to go where..the doughnut box with the 3 Maple Doughnuts goes to H1.

UHHHH..there was more than 1 box that had 3 maple doughnuts in it mixed with other doughnuts.

So I walked back upstairs and asked Ray (supervisor) If he could show me where I'm supposed to take the doughnuts to.

He said it was 'to confusing' and he walked off and said he'll run the errands since I can't.
I asked him if he could nicely show me the rooms for when Jill (the lady who does the doughnut run to the airplane hangars) is gone, I can do it. He said he was too busy at the moment to show me.

Anywho, I AM NOT THE DELIVERY GIRL! I am the freaking janitor. I only clean the bathrooms and take out the trash. NO errands. No making coffee for the SWA and UPS offices NONE of that extra crap is my chore, and they are laying those on me at random because it 'should be'.

Most everybody hates my supervisor, and I don't blame them.
He really is that much of A Hole.

There are a couple of mods over there who i do like and get on with well, and course there are others who i think should think first before saying something, especially when another mod has already commented in the topic. This is probably the one think i find most irritating.
Mod 1, posts early in advance quiet well understanding the topic creators view as well as keeping the peace... so few more posts of other memebers get made and the Mod 2, who probably just see's the first post goes a bit gar gar and hits reply to post before even realising Mod 1 has mentioned something and just writes like a loon and says stuf that don't make sence.

This i think is the real problem... Their lack of Communication with one another.

They need to think first, read ALL of the thread and then take action if needs be. It doesn't help when all mods and Darren and bla bla bla come in and say this and that. It don't help.

Blessed be, Geo Toni x~X~x

POP UPS!

Okay to what I was gonna say.


2 things that make Melissa disgusted:

1.Mops and sponges.
Those are the most dirty things I can think of that retain germs and water.

2. Toilet seat covers.
Annoy the crap out of me. They plug up the toilets since they don't go down the drain, they're dirty and easy to rip apart. Wipe your butt better if your worried.



pretty much anything disposable I like Except toilet covers *shudders*

E ugh i hate toilet seat covers as well... i think if your afraid of using a toilet which is dirty (say like a restroom in a restaurant or something) then just carry some toilet wipes. Or have them in the toilets instead of those nasty toilet covers...

Also i can't stand hic ups... i always seem to get them whenever my mums around me or on my own when I've been doing stuff. I always seem to get them and it drives me mad!!!

Blessed be, Geo Toni x~X~x

Exactly. If your afraid of somebodies else's germs on the toilet, bring baby wipes or wipe down the toilet first. Seat covers are a pain. Especially clean up when they ripped apart and onto the floor since they couldn't read the directions on the box.

..


As for the hiccups, I get those about twice a day, and they're the deep kind that come from your chest that hurt <_<

!!!! I know this resturaunt..and their bathroom has BUILT IN seat covers! It's the coolest thing ever! You hit a button on the floor and this plastic thing moves over the seat completly, so it can't fall down! It's amazing! Hehe. And they have another button that you can hit with your foot to flush, so you don't get any germs on you at all :D

*stares* Do you live in the future or something?

I have never even heard of those! They sound like such a good idea.

Some public toilets in England have this automatice hand washer and dryer. It's a hole in the wall and you put your hands in, soap and water fall on them and then a few seconds later, hot air blows out to dry them. Amazing!

Aww, we don't have the kind you can stick your hands in! We just have the faucets without taps where you wave your hands infront of a motion cencor and that turns the water on...
