What about that time Hedfix got hold of some naked pics of you and put them in pics of farm anima... You didn't know, did you? :s

He logged into my account once and posted as me =( I think he gets some kind of perverse pleasure out of it.

I never felt so violated :,(

Heh, no worries. Why would you be logged into his account instead of yours though?

Sorry that would have been me logged into his account instead of mine :/ Really hate when that happens, and then couldn't delete the post...

Heh, hopefully once I post my next ID topic.

Say, we don't see you around here often, care to share an origin story?

Never you fear Chaos, your time will come :p

I have the longest post on Freeola at the moment (i think) and I won nothing from it :( So it can't be about length.

Ah I go on about this week after week! Never mind! ¦

I have only been here for just over a year, and so I am unaware of who are old Special Reserve chatters and who are not. I have not been told by anyone here to reward any of these users just because they are who you think they are. I really do not care who makes posts on here, just as long as they are not full of swearing or abuse and meet our criteria.

I believed Grix's post could have brought an interesting point of view into the chat, but if people do not post on the thread at the time, we are unable to decide what people do and do not like on chat. I was also unaware of what "PouchApe" was until recently, and we make no money from this site, so it does not benefit ourselves to try and advertise or reward their users for coming and chatting once in a while. If they want to chat somewhere else, that's a shame, but I'm not here to pay them to stay.

Basically we look through all of the posts made each week, and if we think it could be interesting and provoke reactions and conversation it usually does quite well. This however is not the only way we choose what wins, it really depends upon what is on offer each week for a win. On average we get 300 posts a week and only about one or two those come close to making a worthy winner.

I'm really sorry if you feel this is somehow rigged or biased, but I can assure you there is no such thinking here, and it is down to personal taste and what we think people may like to see here. Please you and everyone else, post more and we can try and get a more varied bunch of winners each week.

P.S. Your a smart woman Ladybird, you know what you want - make some new threads, apply to be a Mod again, make this bigger and better the way you want it to!

I think Freeola drops their pants and gives it up especially to those members that are predominantly with PouchApe (Why is the name of that site banned by the swear filter??), in an effort to woo their return whenever they decide to breach their usual lurking about in the shadows and dump on us with plagerized materials from psychological journals all over the internet. Yeah, I'm talking about Grix.

I could imagine awarding him something for that pathetic thread in the Intelligent Discussion forum, IF he in fact engaged in some DISCUSSION and put forth an effort to draw people into the understanding of schizophrenia, but he did not. He just dumped a load of malarky (which I don't believe anyone has even endeavored to read through) about what he believed it to be and he left.

It appears Freeola gave him a GAD just because he's Grix Thraves and for the phenomenal length of his incoherent drivel and not for the content or even the effort. The uninvolved dissertation-like post he slapped us with in the middle of it all is not new material from him at all. It not only makes Freeola bias, but stupid.

The fact that there are others involved in this really makes me question credibility and the integrity of the program. Instead of Freeola investing in expanding it's reach into more of a variety of demographics with fresher perspectives to enhance itself, it will lazily payout former Special Reserve star members for just making an appearance.

What makes you say that?

Nope, there are others, not just me!
