waited til the last 2 hours to do my homework in this class-
turns out i have to write a 1 page report =/
Font 14
Double spaced lines
add fluff about topic.
Profit.
good news, i have an hour more than i thought.
bad news, its been over 3 years since i wrote my last essay/report/etc D=
Iro, it would be rather fortuitous for yourself if you were to pepper the aforementioned short essay with elongated and flowery language in which to lengthen thusly, which in turn would allow less content but with which to achieve the necessary requirements.
Indubitably I shall see to this nifty, tried and true formula to compose my one page long report, with a reference page, on the ethics of eavesdropping and general spying on consumers by internet service providers such as Comcast and Embark and the viewpoints of those that oppose this practice.
Not sure if it'll reach anyone here, but to whomever felt deleting the self-harm thread was appropriate:
Why did you not just lock it? In what way does erasing a person's cry for help in its entirety make you a good moderator? I understand that this may not necessarily be the environment for suicide and self-harm discussion, but if somebody is seeking help, even in early stages, they need to know that people support them and resources are available to them. People don't always know how to go about dealing with thoughts of suicide or self harm, so they use an outlet that is familiar or comfortable to them to relay the message. Removing the post entirely was unnecessary. Locking it - with an explanation - would more appropriately communicate that there are supportive people here, but creating a topic is not the most appropriate course of action.
I'm not familiar enough with the mods or admins to know who to contact, but if someone would like to point me in the right direction that would be appreciated.

Well for your information. I trashed first one. Sent a PM explaining that seeking professional help is better for themself or for whoever the topic is of and the thread topic is not appropriate here. We exchanged Pm's then he went and reposted it after I already said not to.
Moderators have the right to delete any topic/thread that we find inappropriate. We have discussed this in our admin forum about the latest topics and so far we are both on agreement that the topics are not appropriate.
If you have any issue with this, PM a mod or admin.
And btw, that excuse is null...you know who the mods are here and admins.

Actually didn't. I only know Krizz's name because he made it a point to harass me about not agreeing with everyone all of the time. I just know there are name colors and the approximate spelling of the moderators names, which doesn't help me.
How is it an "excuse"? Unless you feel that I am correct in pointing out poor moderation and don't want me to do so in front of others, what am I excusing exactly? I put it here because I hoenstly did not want to spend my time grasping at a name. Scragg and Jaerik usually don't reply to issues of moderation. "Aly Saxena" isn't floating around my mental directory.
And I understand that the topic is inappropriate, and even expressed that same thing (did you read my post?). The way it was handled just screams "my video game forum cleanliness is more important than your well being."
I didn't imply that's what you were saying. I was confused as to why you would view what I wrote as making an excuse unless you felt it was a personal affront. I'll move on.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
