the fall of customize?
Wednesday, April 24, 2002 by John Hamp | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
When I first discovered winamp skins I went to a site called customize.org. Then I went to skinz when cust dissapeared. But since cust has come back its become a haven for l33ts. What's the deal there? Whose in charge of the zoo there? Its just wallpapers and screenshots and they constantly attack Stardock's stuff. I read on deskmod the wb3 announcement and the cust admins were on attacking it there. Then on cust itself they attack it some more. What kind of skin site has admins that bad mouth new releases of the software they support on their site?

it's probably in funk & wagnel's slang dictionary - but the short answer is, no.
Your mother is a whore - and I mean that in a -good- way. All due respect.
Was that an insult? I put the appropriate weasel words around it, so it can't be, right? I'm betting anyone you said that to would still take it as an insult...
Point is, it was insulting. I took it as an attack, as I think most would (wait, I'm not popular here - so I'm sure I'll be told I'm wrong, most of you would love nothing better than to be told that you have a high & mighty attitude... sigh). So that leaves the question: will frogboy be warning himself first? Or will he go straight to the ban?

The Frog Man actually said "mass personal attacks". I don't think that saying that one satement can be construed (at least not logically) as a "mass" attack. It's funny how things can so easily be taken out of context and taken to an extreme, isn't it?

Um...Shog....what if my mother really WAS a whore?
And perhaps there really IS a 'good' way to be a whore, or called one...

You crack me up, Jafo!
Maybe instead of "warning" Frogboy, we can slap him around with a dead trout....actually, a trout might be too large and too expensive....I have a plastic Iguana on my desk that I could throw at him when he comes in, though, if that would make things OK. How does that sound, Shog?

lol, clash of the titans...
I would love to see an all out slagging match between Frogboy, Shoggot, Miriku, Jark, Jier, Chaz and Gorman.
Shoggot, Miriku and Jier often come across as the bad boys of the community. - Anti-corporate, freeware lovin', rebel warriors of the people... men on a mission.
On the other hand you have Frogboy, Jark, Chaz and Gorman - the noble mediator fighters for freedom, fairness and global harmony & balance.
Damn, I talk shit sometimes

Let me see, you make lots of money, have to do little, and can schedule your own hours. Only downside is having to work with sleezy people.
And yet, everyone looks down on you?
I think it's the sleezy customers that give prostitutes a bad name.

Crae, who are you referring to when you say that? I'm confused.

though I have a job pretty much like that now, if I did not that sure would sound enticing (cept the sleezy customers part)

It's the oldest profession in the world. Maybe it's stigma stems from a religious origin.
Yeah, let's turn this into a religous debate! <-- bait

No! Not religion! How about Democrats vs. Republicans? That could start an all out war!

Oohhh.....Mac vs PC...I didn't even think of that one! That happens every time I go over to my inlaws. My FIL is a Mac nut and keeps telling me that they have 10 to 20% of the market (depending on the day). That war will never end...

Ok, how's this?
- Allah is the only God and Muhammad is his prophet!
- Republicans are idiots!
- Apple computers are little better than Fisher Price toys.
That should do it, no?
