morning - thats just Molly editing the chat log - removing some post she doesnt like

6:06 am

worzel

Bit militant. The chog is here for everybody - if somebody posts something offensive then fair enough, but I've seen the entire chog today and there's nothing offensive so maybe Molly is the one with the problem, not anybody else.

6:07 am

ChampFit

She might have been pushing the hints down so they aren't immediately showing. Whatevs!

6:07 am

MollyL

No one posted anything offensive

6:08 am

worzel

As I said, everybody is entitled to post. Moving "hints" down is unfair. But hey, whatevs.

6:09 am

ChampFit

I don't think so. You can always scroll the whole thing. I do that sometimes when I've done my first pass. Good morning!

6:11 am

MollyL

Yep, the whole chat is available when you click on the VIEW THE ENTIRE CHAT LOG icon. Good morning Champ.

6:11 am

worzel

Just play nice, play fair, that's all I'm saying - no need to ruin it for anybody else.

6:11 am

ChampFit

STOP YELLING AT ME MOLLY! :) JK...

6:11 am

MollyL

What was ruined?

6:12 am

worzel

It's ok, I can see what's going on here - clique, clique clique . . .

6:13 am

somebody have a thorn in their knickers?

6:14 am

Apparently

6:14 am

are

6:14 am

ItalianGreyhound

you

6:14 am

ItalianGreyhound

not

6:14 am

ChampFit

Certainly seems that way. It's 6:13 a.m. here in very hot south Texas, and I'm not about to argue. The day is young!

6:14 am

ItalianGreyhound

entertained

6:15 am

worzel

I don't have a thorn in my knickers. There are certain people in here that obviously post a lot and some that very rarely post, and those that post a lot think they are the only ones with a right to post anything, therefore pushing everybody else out of the chog. If you don't want somebody's posts showing apart from your own then that is bullying.

6:15 am

ChampFit

I.G...you ready to spontaneously combust yet? SO DANG HOT!!!

6:15 am

MollyL

You all really have been slammed by the heat Champ

6:16 am

ChampFit

Truth. Bugs me more for the dogs. It's hard on them, so we can only take them on short walks when the sun is down.

6:18 am

MollyL

Any relief in sight?

6:19 am

ChampFit

Not till after the 4th, I think. This too shall pass!

good morning Babble friends! How bad is the heat?

6:22 am

ChampFit

100 and above with ALL the humidity. Like a huge sauna.

6:24 am

saanichcat

you have my sympathy for sure. Hope it cools off soon

6:24 am

worzel

I'm leaving. You've got what you wanted - you've bullied another person into submission. Hope you all have a good day.

6:24 am

saanichcat

huh?

6:25 am

ChampFit

I have no idea.

6:29 am

ItalianGreyhound

might have been playing us - oh well

6:30 am

ChampFit

So weird.

6:49 am

MollyL

Are you bullies still here? I thought you would have moved on by now, to beat someone else into submission😊.

rururocks

excuse me coming through with equimpent to rebuild the sensitive room near the PB

8:35 am

BzznBea

lol

8:35 am

hokie carla

I didn't understand anything that happened there

8:38 am

rururocks

you won't.. it's just a few dumbshits overreacting to nothing

8:38 am

hokie carla

but I also didn't understand what molly was moving off. didn't see anything other that the usual flipchat

8:39 am

saanichcat

I think Molly was bringing the line length back. And people thought she was hiding something.

8:40 am

hokie carla

yeah, that's the usual reason but I couldn't see that in the log

8:41 am

saanichcat

forever a mystery!

8:41 am

BzznBea

and waht was rainqui's post about

8:42 am

hokie carla

well, I think she's right, a lot of the flippers haven't been chatting in a while, but I have no idea what happened 3 weeks ago

8:42 am

saanichcat

well there are some folks who don't play regularly, like freep.

8:42 am

rururocks

it looks to me like Molly was goofing around and it doesn't take much for a few people to fly off the handle.

8:42 am

saanichcat

AND there are summer holidays...

8:43 am

hokie carla

I def don't understand the molly bullying by scrolling the chat argument

8:44 am

rururocks

you can't understand it hokie.. some people just carry grudges for their lives.. and can't move on

8:45 am

saanichcat

nothing happened three weeks ago except that that a couple of high callers at flip changed, for various reasons, like holidays...

8:50 am

hokie carla

well, I did get HOET but 56 left. going to visit my mom so prob won't finish today. good luck, y'all!

8:51 am

saanichcat

10:47 am

10:47 am

periwinkle

10:47 am

dcseain

I spent a lot of time with forewords to find it.

10:47 am

Hi Molly - I guess the usual crew finished earlier

1:47 pm

MollyL

Some did, some had other plans. Thank God. It's good to get out there and enjoy life.

1:48 pm

cybernan

understandable. I certainly enjoyed getting out of my rut with a trip to the coast last week

1:49 pm

Good for you.

Not sure where the two Japanese words comment came from about the first column N. ni4 is not Japanese.

5:35 pm

periwinkle

looks like it is going to rain again here

5:35 pm

aslindy

we got about half an inch of rain today, while I was gone. hopefully we'll get more tonight. do you need more rain, or not?

5:36 pm

periwinkle

5:36 pm

aslindy

we need a lot... just not all at once

5:38 pm

aslindy

we have a severe thunderstorm watch, could have strong gusts of wind. I see a big storm heading for us now on the radar.

5:44 pm

5:57 pm

7:45 pm

gremlinn

What's all the drama earlier today here about? Was it me putting too many hints out early? I can cut back on that if it's rude.

7:46 pm

penquis

i don't think it had anything to do with you....shouting out stats at the flip is how this game has been played as long as I can remember....

7:46 pm

gremlinn

Rainiqui seems to have a problem when I do.

7:47 pm

penquis

well everybody else does it, too....

7:47 pm

penquis

one can turn off the chat if one doesn't want to see the stats...

7:47 pm

dcseain

when I started playing, we waited an hour before we did that.

7:48 pm

penquis

for me, i think it's better right aftr the flip....easier to avoid it if one is so inclined...

7:48 pm

gremlinn

I'll cut back on it, anyway.

7:48 pm

penquis

don't have to....up to you....

7:49 pm

dcseain

yes, there used to more chatting around the flip. I noticed that stopped at some point.

7:49 pm

gremlinn

Yeah, for a while, I liked finding everything myself so I just hid the chat until I was done.

7:49 pm

gremlinn

Now I don't like spending so much time per day so I just take the calls people make and accept the help to speed things up.

7:50 pm

penquis

everybody can play the way they prefer....it's one of the things i like about this game...

8:23 pm

Nef

I’ve been playing for a very long time; I play for fun but some people seem to play to competer or whatever & some players get bossy in chat. I don’t like it when people think they can make to rules here or bully others, I either slide chat off the page or speak up. I refuse to put up with that.

8:32 pm

dcseain

I'm aware, of one bullying person regularly in the chat. But, yeah.

9:13 pm

rururocks

there are quite a few chat bullies DC.. if you really think about it

9:15 pm

rururocks

and I suspect rainqui had an issue with gremlin too

9:22 pm

hokie carla

you should just STFU ruru! 😜

9:22 pm

rururocks

HA..

9:23 pm

rururocks

I just noticed all the drama today.. that's all

9:23 pm

Dorens

9:23 pm

Dorens

9:23 pm

hokie carla

I was just trying to bully ruru

9:24 pm

Dorens

9:24 pm

rururocks

9:24 pm

Dorens

hard to do, carla. He has thick skin

9:25 pm

rururocks

hey.. if you dish it out.. you gotta be able to take it back from someone else

9:25 pm

hokie carla

I learned many years ago you have to on the internet

9:25 pm

hokie carla

(have thick skin)

9:26 pm

hokie carla

ooh, found a 9

9:26 pm

Dorens

9:28 pm

hokie carla

yes, that was it

9:28 pm

hokie carla

it was good. I'm spending the night at her house and will drop by before I leave town to see her again.

9:29 pm

rururocks

9:29 pm

hokie carla

9:30 pm

9:30 pm

hokie carla

oh wow, that's big news

9:31 pm

hokie carla

doing okay with that?

9:31 pm

Dorens

Mothers can definitely be a trip. Ihave my year old grandkid spending the night and he's so adorable and so exhausting. Will have to wake up at 5:30 most likely, and then driving up to MA for few days at friend's house. Would love to finish but hitting a wall at 67. Of course if I list that would definitely help

9:32 pm

hokie carla

I have 53 left. I brought all my laundry with me because we are having issues at my house, so I will be working on that a while!

9:32 pm

Dorens

(sorry, didn't mean to interrupt the conversation and was going to hold off on posting but my finger slipped

9:33 pm

hokie carla

no worries, I thought your post fit in fine. I like to hear about adorable grandkids.

9:36 pm

Dorens

Thanks
