lol, a bot is like a computer that can talk to you. You ever called the phone company and get a voice menu (press 1 for English or 2 for Spanish)? Well it's the same thing, except in text format. Some are friendly and some are downright harmful. Thankfully I've never encountered a harmful bot (knock on wood) but I have the friendly ones. And spam (besides the canned meat) is like unwanted advertisement...but repeated continuously. Like someone posting "Eat at Joes" for 2 pages of a thread. So yeah, hopefully that helped 
But yeah, chat rooms are just like talking on the phone, and for people who type slower than most others (like me) it can be a hassle at times. But either way it's fun. You don't have to wait a day and a half to finish a conversation lol
I think the board's been running longer than that lol *comes back after about an hour of searching* I officially joined the new forum back in '02 but I don't remember how long it was before then. So basically I was anywhere between 16-17 years old when I first logged on  Wow you guys kinda watched me grow ^.^ Feel proud lol
You have a point about maturity there. Tho I dun like sanity much more either >.o |

I had already typed alot of stuff in reply to your reply but for some damn reason the computer logged me off and wiped out what I was saying! Argh!  One of the things I do not like about computers!
The explanations for the computer terms are helpful! Thanks! I spammed the board one day with a repetitive sentence on all the threads of the main page. Most of the people ignored me and some didn't. Some had a laugh over it and some didn't.  Either way I had fun! I'm thinking of doing something similar some time soon because I'm getting restless and want to play again!
I can type fairly fast but I'm buggy about grammar and punctuation because one careless creature pointed out some time ago that it drove them buggy about people being careless about that stuff. So, I'm always going back and fixing my mistakes. I also enjoy some of the new lingo that people do on the board. Like: OMG, WTF, and lol. Now that saves time! My son laughs at me because I type like a kid on the computer now. Well, sometimes. I'm still pretty long-winded!
You were that "little" when you joined! Incredible! I guess some of us have "watched" you grow up! I thought there was an age limit for kids because of some of the seamier topics on the board i.e. the last couple of posts on the thread of Mr. Takai's wedding. I have a bomb icon on my Rubber Room thread because I don't want parents to not know what their kids are reading. Common courtesy, but some of the times people forget to use the warning signs.
The older I've become I'm starting to realize that the way to true bliss is to be insane responsibly. I was such a stodgy kid a long time ago. I would have avoided myself if I could. Had to get a sense of humour. Now I'm somewhere in the middle and I think that suits me just fine! |

Welp back from fishing. And not a single bite >< 'Cept for dad, he caught a tiny little thing. Oh well, gives us incentive to fix our boat *nod*
As long as people are oki with your spams I dun think it's a big problem. Though I do remember no bumps are allowed, right?
My typing depends on whether I'm in a lazy mood or in a grammatically correct mood. Most of the time I always "cross my 'T's' and dot my 'I's'". I actually got a compliment about that a few days ago. Someone asked me how old I was because I "sounded" mature from the way I typed. It's interesting Oh yeah, I know of a few more things fer ya...BTW - By the way, AFK - away from the keyboard, LMAO - Laugh my @$$ off, ROFL- Roll on the floor laughing (combine the two to form roflmas - roll on the floor laughing my @$$ off)...and that's it for now >.>...<.<...>.>...^.^
I know some people here know what they are, but there are some that don't. For the longest time I didn't know what AFK and BTW meant 
Well, I was going through those awful fazes called "teenage years". I loved them, and there are times I want to go back, but then again I like I have now too. One day I will go back again... when my future kids are that age *nodnod* Oh how fun that will be >< And it's predicted that my generation will have twins. *hopes so much that it'll be her sister* |

I always skunked out on fishing. Caught more turtles than anything. Sorry to hear that you didn't catch anything today.
I've always wondered what that "bump" ment. A few people do it now and then and I wonder if it's just some way to give attention to a certain topic.
You do sound quite abit more mature than your 21yrs. I still have trouble using some of the symbols to make kitties and such. I tried to make a halo and wings one time combined with my name but it doesn't submit well. I knew what BTW was but AFK is a new one on me!
I hope you do enjoy your new "teenage years" with your kids! My teenage years were icky for me and right now it's not going so swimmingly over here with my boy, but I wish you all happiness with your kids some day!  Always being young at heart helps alot. |

*pads back in, hopping up onto the counter* Wow this place is dead 
Oh yeah >< I need to reply *grabs a pen and paper and starts trying to write with her tiny paws*
I sound more mature? o.O? How so? If anything I thought I sounded more childish lol
I hope things go better with him. They are tough but the memories last a lifetime. *nodnod*
*finshes her scratchy note and pads over to the fridge, grabbing a saucer of tea, closes the door and laps at it* |

It'll eventually even out for my boy...when he's in his 30's. 
Sure you sound mature. Alot of it isn't so much about your writing style though that is a probably a major part. It's just how you get your opinions across. Lots of creativity. |

*giggles* lol I know right? The drama never ceases, even out of high school. Which is why after my latest fling I'm not going into another relationship for a long while >.o Playing the field yeah, but nothing full fledged if I can help it.
Wow O.O I never had someone say that about me before  Wow, I guess I should feel honored?
*smiles, finishing up her saucer and puts it aside* By the way, where has Dan been? |

Ha! Drama will follow you the rest of your life if you let it! Whether you stay exclusive or not! Life is just that way sometimes.
Really? Well, it could be you're just not around here enough to have someone else comment on it. Me, I'm here constantly which probably means I ought to not be As for the honor...nah!!!! Just an old housewife making a casual comment
Danny comes here when he can. And Pippa too. They're awfully busy with family and such. So it's up to us to make sure that the cafe' is open 24-7, or at least when most people are up and around. Alot of Americans come in here, but not very many of the overseas people. Which is a shame because they have some lively and interesting conversations to contribute. So if your listening in out there across the big water, stop on by and share a cuppa with us! |

| Grape. Seems to be the only thing affordable anymore! I'm partial to red plum jelly on PB&J, though. Blackberry or orange marmalade is great on toast. |
