Answer the question.

yes, but its rare.

yes, but its rare.

What he said!

Hmmm.... It happens from time-to-time. The last time I remember* being complimented on the forums, I think people were saying that I should be made a Moderator.

Please don't bother to compliment me now. Moderators are prohibited from fishing for compliments, under penalty of being forced to make out with Myrth (or, if Myrth does it, being forced to make out with Slag).

* I might have been complimented since then.

Yeah, periodically, it's nice, motivates me to stay around and stay thinking instead of leaving for good.

I used to, yes, a year ago.

Only when I bother to compliment myself. :p

Not that I remember, but I might have. It's funny, I've been on here for a year and a half now and still I seem to go right under everybody's radar.

Consistently and thouroughly.

Answer the question.

Nice job with this thread, yo! ;)

Only when I bother to compliment myself. :p

Dude, Jim, where ya been?

You're an awesome poster heh. Well, there's your compliment :p




As for me, every so often someone tells me I'm not a big ugly troll :p

Dude, Jim, where ya been?

Living real life. Do I know you?

Not that I recall.

Occasionally.

Hey Goed Twee, I reckon you're not a big ugly troll...

Actually I think I remember complementing The Black Forrest once on having a really 'together' spiritual outlook....

Unless the context calls for it though, online complements always somehow come across borderline phoney, so probably that's why not too many get turfed around. It'd be insincere and fake if everyone complemented each other all the time... :rolleyes:

Unfree People once said I was his hero...

Once.
But I would like to say that everyone who has posted on this thread is really wonderful. A credit to modern debate. Pillars of the community.
(hugfest for no reason, it's Christmas)

One time I made my own appreciation thread...

EDIT: It got closed because at the time we were making a bunch of threads that were spam. I did not get to recieve any compliments before it was locked. Alas...

I don't think so, but I'm not sure. Anyone out there feel like complimenting me?

Sure... normally in the context of people responding to me complimenting them though :p

... damn, well. That's me screwed over then, since I heap lavish praise and compliments on the five or six people I see as worthy at every possible moment (where it's not out of context/spammish)... it's not insincere though... I just like making sure the people I like know about it.

Although I'm beginning to think I need to reconsider that in light of recent 'events' (read: mockings). Stupid evil people and their mocking...

Not that I recall. *sniff*
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

I don't remember having been complimented. Although there were times that my posts were agreed with or used as evidence later on in a debate, and I considered it a compliment.

I think the answer is yes - a couple/few times - but sometimes it's hard to tell. Actually, yes. I have gotten a couple/few positive responses I would have to call compliments.

Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy when it happens. Unfortunately, there's usually some other farging icehole who comes along a few minutes later and slams the post I've just been complimented on. Then I descend into a pit of unbreachable darkness and despair.

Ah, NS forum posters, thou art truly a diverse and fickle crowd. I love you all (well, almost all). :D

Not that I recall. *sniff*
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

Well, I think you're really nice, because you were comforting Tink the other night in PC while I was stuck under the tree and not able to comfort her myself.

...

Sure, I had to go dig through that 90-page morass again to double check that it was you, but it was, and you were nice enough that I did recognised your name when you posted here, so...

:D?



(See? Lavish compliments. Not meant to be phony... 'sall true)

*sniff*
Really? You really think so? Thanks. I feel better now, from :( to :D.

I don't think so, but I'm not sure. Anyone out there feel like complimenting me?
Nah.

I don't think so, but I'm not sure. Anyone out there feel like complimenting me?

You shure have purdy teeff!

:p

(See? Lavish compliments. Not meant to be phony... 'sall true)

Ok....that being the case I'll compliment you on the nice way you cheered-up Sanctaphrax.....


....sincerely of course..... ;)

Roachsylvania, so you dont left out, I'd like to take this opportunity to compliment your typing...great job! Looks just like computer generated.... ;)

Heh. Silliness. :p

But yay! A 'sincere' compliment! :D

(anyone notice how paranoia-inducing it can be when people *specify* they're being sincere? It's really quite odd... not that I'm talking about this case here though, just in general)

Oh, and if I've every told any of you guys to have my children, that's a compliment, in case you didn't pick up on that.

Yeah, Shaed is nice, she cheered me up, thanks Shaed. I'll never insult you, ever.

I compliment the nations that are winners in particularly important categories – civil liberties for example. Although I complimented not the winner, but the highest ranking non-anarchy.
Anyone can now go and contemplate the duck I made.

Why thank you! ;)

only on my name so far... but I'm still new here so...

Sure... normally in the context of people responding to me complimenting them though :p

Hey - I have maliciously complimented you before, without the need for complimentary-provocation!!!

;)

I used to, yes, a year ago.
well I happen to know for a fact that i've complimented you in the last year!


i recall SL once told me that i'm one of the nicest people on NS

Nice job with this thread, yo! ;)

:D You have a good sense of humor!

I actually had two or three compliments on my post to the thread about Alabama book-banning.

I feel really good about that post now, thanks people.

Answer the question.

Bizarrely enough: yes.

Frequently. In fact, some threads get derailed into random RPP worship just upon my entrance. It's ridiculous.

I must say.. You all spell very very nicely. I am impressed, Well done. You are a fine bunch of people. I like the comments. Impressive. Way to be. Keep up the good work. Thanks for coming out.

I keep several puppet governments around for the sole purpose of complimenting myself in this forum.
