Sioux Rocks Off Regular Offline Brian Jones---Foundation Stone--Golden Stone Posts: 4,176 Virginia, U.S.A. Gender:	I think I was demoted....:( May 17^th, 2008 at 2:34pm I noticed that I, and it looks like most others, have gone from 4 stars {resident cretin} to 2 stars {Rocks Off Regular}. Was that just a routine, across the board change? Just curious...

my guess is the UT are constantly changing the goalposts...the longer we have the new board, the harder it is to be a resident cretin!

best just to grab some good reading material and enjoy the ride.

"Why would any sane person want to leave Rocks Off? If you have an issue outside of Rocks Off, handle it. When you return it will be as if you never have left. Once you are here-it's expected you stay. Why waste long cultivated posting skills somewhere else? The outside world will not understand." -Nellie

This board hasn’t been running for two months yet. With that in mind, I think it’s too early to judge whether someone is a regular or not. It’ll be interesting to see how many of these so called ‘Resident Cretins’ will be with us in the coming years. I personally don’t think it’s warranted yet and maybe that’s why they’ve raised the amount of posts you need. I also think your ‘status’ should be measured on the length of your board membership, as well as your actual posting.

I do post quite a bit, and I read the board for ages before joining, but I'm not an old timer. I do think those of you who have been here for years and post regularly should get a special title.

" Excuse me for being uninformed, but what is a Resident Cretin please? "

" BUSY BEING FABULOUS "

( Henley / Frey ---- ' the gods ' )

" I came home to an empty house
And I found your little note : ….
Don’t wait up for me tonight
And that was all she wrote

Do you think I don’t know that you’re out on the town
With all of your high rollin’ friends?
What do you do when you come up empty?
Where do you go when the party ends?

And you were just too busy being fabulous
Too busy to think about us
I don’t know what you were dreaming of
Somehow you forgot about love
And you were just too busy being fabulous, uh-huh

A little time in the country
A day or two to slow down
A bottle of wine and a walk in the moonlight
Maybe some foolin’ around

But you think time is just a magazine
And money’s just a thrill
I’ve waited so long for you to change your way of livin’
Now I realize that you never will

‘Cause you were just too busy being fabulous
Too busy to think about us
Lookin’ for something you’ll never find
You’ll never know what you left behind
‘Cause you were just too busy being fabulous, uh-huh

You tell a joke and everybody’s laughin’
That’s something you know how to do
You’ve always been the life of the party
But now my baby, the joke is on you

‘Cause you were just too busy being fabulous
Too busy to think about us
Running after something that never comes
What in the world are you runnin’ from?

And you were just too busy being fabulous
Too busy to think about us
To drink the wine from your winner’s cup
To notice the children were growin’ up

And you were just too busy being fabulous
Too busy, too busy
Too busy
Aw, baby ..... "
