Re: OOT: Thread Overflow Depository (AKA: The Hijack This if you Dare Thread.)
hmmm, since Rollo is drinking the mead with a straw, I assume he wants the umbrella to shade the keg and keep the hot sun off of it. (I skillfully attach a group of 5 umbrellas to the keg and add a remote control unit. I hand the unit to rollo so that he can adjust the umbrellas as needed throughout the day.)
Cheers!
P.S. You know, I really miss your nice collection of shovels. Did you get any new ones in your absense?

See, this is just the kind of thing that puts people off from logging on to #se4.

I log in often enough, but get really tired of hanging around with lurkers, getting people to chat in there is like pulling teeth.

We need an OOT thread animal mascot any suggestions?

It should be something that reflects the padding of post counts. Perhaps an animate pillow.
Or a Vorlon or Antaran.

Ahem, if that's the case, then why is their 'status' not marked as 'away'? IMHO if you're away, you should at the very least have your computer automatically list your status as 'away' (like you do fyron) I don't blame people that are 'away' for being quiet, but when there are 4-6 people NOT marked as 'away' and you (I) get no response then it's just plain rude. Don't log in if you don't have the time or interest to chat.
Going to #se4 is like sitting in a waiting room and you know how people LOVE that don't you? If people go to #se4 and used it to say, mmmm, CHAT! then it might become more popular. If new players drop by and get the silent treatment then it stands to reason that they won't return.
Placing a note at log-in that "please be patient and wait 10 mins if you get no response. Some people might not be at their computer or may be busy." HELLO! then they should set their status to say this.. 'Busy', or 'away' or 'brb' etc.
Don't get me wrong, I love #se4, but I fully understand why it's not as popular at it could/should be.
