shhh... neverdie, how can you be a secret if you tell everyone?

Secretly Im trying to drive webfact to some all time high destination in green pormiscuity.

Seriously though, if I was accused of giving a friend here some 'green rewards' for no other reason than they were my good friend, i would say, "SO WHAT?" Of course if I was breaking the law in relation to the administration of greenies (we need LEGISLATION) and I breached those laws, then the lynch mob would be expected. B U T, i didnt read any guidelines about the green/reds & using common sense, thought that anyone could issue them however he wants.....clearly I was mistaken as I now face this tribunal. <deleted>.

I thought everyone new I was FRIENDLESS.

Anyhowz, Ive got to run, webfact is out the front tooting his horn, he's shouting me out again tonight (5th night running) & we're gonna hit the town and paint it GREEN . A few more greens & he can start paying my rent, skys the limit

What the hel_l, have one.

What the hel_l, have one.

I missed on giving some out yesterday, too busy with my other life.

Hey, you wanna be best buddies?

See everybody is still busy with revelling and replying for greenies .

For Gods sake , all a greenie , I have so many left .

shhh... neverdie, how can you be a secret if you tell everyone?

Hmmm bypassing the reds and out fraternising with the blues....advocating more rules for us to break...disowning your former friends....you must be in the running for high office.....

High as in smelly ?

It has been said to rise to the top unfortunately.

Sure, whats your point?

318 greenies handed out on this thread so far.

And when the OP started it it he was looking for a serious discussion on the merits of the scheme.

If anyone thinks that the number of points they've accumulated has anything to do with the quality of their posting this thread belies that completely.

In an adult forum it could be a good way of showing appreciation for the more incisive and hard working members.

It failed in Teak Door and it has already fallen over here. I wonder what members, who don't post in Bedlam, think about the huge reputations that have quickly been conferred on a lot of very ordinary posters. (I include myself here)

It's a bit like life - the biggest tools win the prize.

Now that reply is truly worthy of a greenie OC. Nail on head my friend.

Poor old Croc , seems everything is going to fast these days .

Times are changing even on forums , in a blink before you know it everything you knew

is gone , but isn't it how older how wiser .....

So What? The quality of any given individual post would vary from person to person. You may have already guessed old croc, I like to laugh (it stops me from going mad, more mad). So somebody, perhaps for example, UG may post one of his funny pictures or make a sharp comment about something. That post could possibly mean sweet bugger all to one person but make the next person laugh or indeed it might provide valuable information to the next guy. So in otherwords, someones shit is somebody elses treasure. WHO CARES, are you seriously that worries about this? Have you thought about creating your very own forum without reward points.

I wasnt worried about this feature before it came to TV & I sure as aint worried about it now. For me, you are looking for a conspiracy or something where there isnt one, so for all your effort Im going to reward you another green, as im saving handing out the reds for real jerks, not people aspiring to be one.

:violin: You forgot to accompany your post with music.

Is this the first award winning thread in Bedlam ?

If so, congratulations lannarebirth.

Nurse Diesel will be around after lights-out to personally present you with your very own hand-crafted spank paddles......

There must have been something about my post that you found too close for comfort.

So you retort by calling me old, slow and stupid. Well 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

At least one of the brainiacs found it amusing.

I've given you a greenie to appear as if I understood the quote you referenced.

Surely H, even on the two remote islands you've lived on you'll have come across Huxley and his "Brave New World". Here's a comparative primer:

I could be wrong about this and I'm too lazy to search through all his posts to confirm it, but wasn't Old Croc one of those posters who almost had a nervous breakdown when the new forum software took some of his post-count away a few months ago?

I just could not figure that out as the number of posts has no meaning at all. At least with a greenie, someone thought you were amusing or interesting in some way and with a red, you have the satisfaction of knowing that you pissed some a__hole off.

Croc has the best approved rating on this thread , over 10 greenies

in one post . Thats what you get for being grumpy , people love it .

Waiting to give the next greenie for the next best .

"Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with some equivalent of the Feelies, the Orgy Porgy and the Centrifugal Bumblepuppy."

I think it's time for my Soma...............

P.S. Though I still think young Aldous was wrote a satirical piece of fiction, not scientific prophecy.

Old Croc has it nailed down. Gash. Its fitting that a piss taker like Huxley should be quoted on this thread.

Now where shall I randomly hand out pointless greenies today? Suggestions welcomed....

I'm getting a little low.

I think there needs to be a system put in place to deal with the administration of green rewards.

Step 1:

You decide someone has posted something good.

Step 2:

You click the green reward button.

Step 3:

An internal investigation team is swiftly despatched on a CODE 1 alert w/sirens ablazing.

Step 4:

15 Buddhist monks decend on orignating posters location & commence chanting.

Step 5:

Obama's telephone starts ringing & important people start shuffling papers.

Step 6:

Evidence is obtained, with no interrogation methods barred & brief of evidence compiled

Step 7:

The evidence is tested by a dozen high court judges & a tibetan yak

Step 8:

An order is made for George to personally deliver the green award or reject the application

Step 9:

The entire event is covered by the media and reported on thai visa via webfacts desk.

I'm getting a little low.

AGREED!

I'm getting a little low.

Well done for recogising charity begins at home. Also as its Sunday I'm going to award the laziest posters on the General Forum with greenies.....any post I find well thought out and informed might feel my wrath.

Ahh the power at my fingertips!!

Winniethekhwai's reputation makes interesting reading.

Why, because almost all of it is from the member "Mestizo" you mean?

The reputation is deserved. Even the Queen Mum thinks she's quite a good opera singer for a foreigner............
