Was just sent a invite and entry key to Room 63. Not sure what it is about, nor is the person that sent the invite a member here. So anyone else get the invite and have any more information on just what the room is all about? Send a PM to me if you also got this invite and have any more info about the room and it's purpose.
well why don't you go to the room and find out ?
when you get an invite.. the pm looks like it comes from the webmaster.
(this thread should really be in the "what is, how do i" forum)
I never venture into anything anywhere unless I understand and have a bit of knowledge on just what the place or people are all about. I've in real life been suckered into many things when I was young, some of them not real fun. In short I don't dive into any waters unless I know there are not rocks just below the surface :)
It is a thread that everyone would consider people whinning, and complaining about the fact of all this nonsence and b*tching about Negatives, and Suicide Threads. I personally think it was the smartest way a couple members could have their discussion without being negged to death, but that is what Room 63 is all about...
Joey, 63, is a room where people can discuss negs without getting neg'd because that is what happens when people discuss negs in public. Why are you going around putting the room down? There are lots of valid opinions from users, and even veteran users. The previous threads leading up to 63 went negative, and even close to suicidal, so it was decided to have a conference room so people could talk openly without fear of being neg'd because they want to be heard, and it is easy to understand their frustration. A system exists but nobody can discuss the system, or it failings because they are given negs, that frustrates people, and 63 is a great alternative to that. I've never really complained about negs before, but I like the discussion going on in there right now, because it is pretty interesting, so don't go puttin the room down, its a great place to talk about APs. And joey, its easy to say they're bitching when you get tons of positives for putting down other threads, i.e enough is enough
I never put it down, and if you read the comment I left in Room 63, I made a reference to why I said what I said about room 63. I said alot of people would view it as a bunch of people complaining and b*tching about AP's. Not many people want to join your discussion. I am choosing to ignore all negative aspects of AO, and place all my focus on the reason I joined AO. I want the information without having to skip over "AO complaints". I'm suprised no one has suggested a "AO Complaint" or "B*tch and Moan" forum......... I have no problem with what you are doing, and to be honest. I think the conference room is the best place to do it. So I ask, what was your reason to start chewing me out?
I'm not trying to chew you out, but it seems like you have a negative view of room 63. Its a great place to discuss the system, and everybody can talk, even the people who wouldn't do it in the public forums for fear of negs. I think it is a great place, and am happy to be a part of it.
So, basically, Room 63's a room for newbies to b*tch and whine? Sounds great to me. That means they'll keep their problems away from here so real questions can be answered. Whoever started Room 63, keep up the good work, and whenever you see someone b*tching about points, invite them to the room and suggest they close the thread so we don't have to hear anymore about the AP system.

nah man not newbies. we are all noticing that we are having the same negative experience here, and are thinking of ways to change that.
Yup, well, not really newbies tho. Some veterans in there too. Some people who've been ehre for a long time. I'm just saying newbies could ask stuff there, and not be scared to do so. And the room is actually about some suicide thread thing, but I think that died out fast.
Well had a real kitchen fire is out so is summer vacation. Anyway just threw stuff out need to post the oops thread given the fact the room was started by a member. Was it a complaint thing about negs nope more about keeping the quality of the AO site and members that may hold few points pointed out a valid concern. Just look at negs to your post as a way to learn more if the neg goes beyond I'm tired of your BS. Neg someone stand up say why as well as a + point say why. Am off to delete the thread now and oh social engineering works many ways me my thing is what is a profiler :) Learned much about posts here. Thanks All :)
I think I understood the gist of what you said butconfuses me. Especially the last 5 words, could you clarify plz?Quote:

I Am the person who started room 63, if you would like to check out the whining and bitching AP free thread you will have to PM me, or allenb1963 , and if its a valid reason you will be invited to join, I also believe that Khakisrule will support this too, although I have not asked him....joey?
This is not a bitching and whining thread, it is a thread that is dedicated to improving the overall quality of our experiences here without being irritating to the few who don't care or the many who don't deserve to mingle with us old farts...
<edit>A flame post? Sorry to whoever this is, I did not mean to hurt anyones feelings here. I suppose that I deserved this, but, I would like to know what joining July 2002 has to do with anything, I was born March 1960. And I have been into computers and communications since 1973. Unfortunatly not many here feel I have much to offer.</edit>

hmmm first thing that comes to mind when i read this was wtf and i want food but thats a different story.
now.... a room so all you little girls can cry about getting negs because u winged about getting negs... let me thing
1. you get flamed for bring it up cause you need to be men deal with it.
2. you get flamed for bring it up cause the reason you got negs is vaild ie winging about negs or flaming someone or posting the god for saken "great post i agree"
honestly room 63 is like chicks and needing to goto the toilet they wont do it unless someone walks holding their hand with them its a group of lamers winging about how they got negged cause they said telnet was better than ssh. i mean i lost 125 negs to negatives groupies im not winging or starting confrence rooms winging about it.
the system works sure theirs a few flaws but bitching behind others back about it talk to jp just dont everytime someone gives u a neg ap winge about it in the forum talk to the person you gave it to or if its grossly unfair talk to jp... or one of the moderators see that little report button use it because they do listen. terr has reasured me on this on more than one occasion
so in short be men deal with big bad negs hurting your feelings and stop bitching either in public or behind peoples backs
and if i get negged for this wich i know i will you will not see me crying.
rioter
take it to room 63 the key is in your mailbox...or is it because we seem to have left you out? If so I am truely sorry I'll be sure to include you in the next thread, might even dedicate it to you my friend...
sheesh!!! I can't believe the conclusions people come to when they are left out of the really good stuff, man it don't make it grow bigger.
wtf
can you not read... that whole thread was against that room why would i then winge about being left out...?
i wont be visiting the room or posting in it
rioter
cmon, rioter.. joey.. palemoon.. breathe in.. breathe out. relax. IMHO, you all seem to be experienced and should know better then to start flaming each other. there are better ways to talk about this. if you must. please. the last thing we need here at AO is people "b*tching" about "b*itching". for everyone else's sake.
Yes RiOtEr, if you weren't so bent on pride you would not be so upset at me now, I am sorry if this is pi*sing you off, but, if you are as experienced and knowledgeable as your array of greenies suggest then come in and see what its all about. I promise I don't have rabies and I don't bite...Quote:

Spitfire087, would you like to check out room 63 as well, it might not be a place for cute little girls, or for ladies either, now on the other hand if you are really a spitfire....
You know what, aeallison, I did check it out... and you know what I found?!?! A bunch of whining little b*tches complaining about their APs. Granted, I did see some very valid points, but those were from specific members who I knew had valid opinions. Many of the posts in there, however, are from the same small group of people who have been complaining all along. If you have a problem with the system, then don't post. I agree that I have received negatives that I didn't earn, but I have also received some positives that I feel I didn't earn. If you make a good contribution to the site, you will be rewarded. If you persist to post useless posts like these, all you're going to do is make enemies and get yourself more negatives...Quote:

I understand you're looking for a place to let out your frustrations, and that's fine, but don't involve the entire community. That's what the conference rooms are for... to keep these sort of things private, so you can deal with it on your own. All you're doing is making people more upset because you're still whining and complaining here... and then as soon as someone either whines along with you or goes against you, you invite them in. Give it up... Take it like a man. I completely agree with Rioter on this. He summed it up rather nicely by saying:

I am only going to say this once, RiOtEr you have gained my respect, I know that I really ticked you off but still you did not neg me...thanks I hope we can still be friends...
avdven, you are truly a leader of men, and I mean that. as for room 63, I will keep it open till it dies, just for the sake of having a place to beotch...and I know that we can be friends...PS. My son will be 20 next month, and he thinks I am a lame old fart as he plays his games on his super computer I built for him...go figger
Okay, I tried to stay out and hope this would just die it's rightful death, but as it seems it's not going to I'm going to have my say.
I was not invited...Rioter was not invited...and from the replies in this thread, it seems no one with a substantial amount of AP's was invited. Therefore it would seem to me that an unbiased conversation on AP's is not what you wanted...you wanted somewhere to complain about AP's. Fine....I don't give a CRAP what you talk about in your private conference room. That's the whole friggin point of them...to have a conversation that not everyone is involved in. I am in a couple of private conference rooms, and I don't think in any one of them, I've ever talked about computers....that's kind of the point. But what I DO NOT UNDERSTAND is this...you used a PM to invite Palemoon into your complainers circle...why on earth didn't you use a PM to explain to him the purpose of the room instead of opening ANOTHER thread about AP's? You could have saved the whole forum this thread, and saved a little bit of respect from some of the rest of the members of this site. As it is, it seems that we have a group of malcontents who can't take criticism. I'm certainly not saying I don't get my share of stupid negs, and the majority of them focus on the fact that I'm a woman....is that fair? No. Do I post a thread everytime I get one of them? No.
If you have got members with a substantial amount of greenies in your room...please take notice of the fact none of them have replied to this thread....Gee, I wonder how they got so many more than you?
Deb :rolleyes:
/me hugs Debwalin, and calls RiOtEr a slut...
I couldn't have said it better myself.... Both of you.... Marvelous job....
All I can say is... Hell Yeah, take whinging about negatives into a private conference... That'd make me happy.... And then we can make private conference for people to whinge about people whinging about getting negatives.... and then I'll have something good to read while drinking beer... rather than people complaining... seriously.... I mean.... URGHHH!!!!!
useless thread except people bitching about anti point
