This is a question that has come up in chat before, but no one seems to know the answer. At what point is a Newb worthy of posting a picture on Foobonic?

I've heard people comment/complain that many of the pictures on there are of people who are "inactive".

Posted by Da_Goat (Member # 5529) on :

Well, first, at the point at which they obtain a digital camera, scanner, or Kinkos. When from there, I don't know.

Dang! I've tried to exercise but it's just so HARD!!! I don't need all this extra pressure you know.

Posted by Valentine014 (Member # 5981) on :

Oh Bob! [ROFL]

You go back and sit on that couch and let me get you a beer.

My first thought on reading this thread title was "Oxymoron" (like Jumbo Shrimp). I think all you have to do is promise to name your next child Ralphie, and you're in.

well, i'm assuming that means that there's pictures up of people who don't post anymore. I don't see how that affects newbies wanting to post pictures though.

So the point is, post your picture. [Smile]

There's etiquette about Foobonic photos?

And is there really the perception of an elite around Hatrack?

For goodness' sake, when you walk through the door (metaphorically), you assume the same rights and responsibilities as anyone else. Period. Even if you're one of Pat's or JonBoy's danged pseudonyms. *grumble

[Wink]

Don't let anyone convince you different.

((((Claudia)))))

Thanks! [Blushing]

Time for me to look for pictures of models to post on. . .I mean, time for me to sort through the ol' photo album for a picture of little old me.

Posted by Valentine014 (Member # 5981) on :

Here's another silly question...how do I post pictures on there..do I need to contact someone?

Posted by pooka (Member # 5003) on :

Hold up, Valentine, have you been Burninated? If so, I think the photo album info is here. [Big Grin]

Posted by Valentine014 (Member # 5981) on :

Hey now, I have been to that thread before! Not nice! I just hope that if and when someone burns me, they pay a lot.

Posted by pooka (Member # 5003) on :

No, you pay him. Interesting, eh? I guess it keeps him supplied with pork and beans. It took me a while to get up the courage. Anyway, I was just kidding. I don't even have minions.

Posted by ak (Member # 90) on :

You email Ralphie and send her your picture (preferably in jpg format). She puts it up on foobonic. The email address is.... hatrack@foobonic.com.

Posted by jehovoid (Member # 2014) on :

Speaking of which, where did Ralphie go? It's been like 2 months.

Posted by Rhaegar The Fool (Member # 5811) on :

500 Posts maybe Valentine?

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :

I agree with Claudia Therese. If you post, you're a Hatracker. If you're a Hatracker, you're a full-blooded Hatracker.

Posted by Da_Goat (Member # 5529) on :

You know, I don't know if I ever got rightly burninated. I was spanked, I know that, and probably killed a few times in chat, but I don't think my skin even has a singe-mark

Ecumenical, we is. And welcome, Valentine. [Smile]

It's been my experience that newbies who flood the board tend not to stay, often unfortunately (whatever happened to Cheshire Cat?), or else continue to post and develop into astonishing persons here (Maeth, props to you). Either way, no real price to pay.

Kat: What about those that lurk?

Bob, you needn't be so self-deprecatory, you know.

Okay, there's not a thing I can say here.

But I thought of saying:

<gives CT the "finger">

And then I thought better of it.

Posted by ClaudiaTherese (Member # 923) on :

Well, not if you call it your pinkie.

I always assumed his pet name for it was "Lavalamp" and that he was only single because it frightened most women.

Posted by ClaudiaTherese (Member # 923) on :

Lavalamp? Good grief, I've plugged it in.

Frisco, Bob is single only because he enjoys being chased by hordes of women. He, like Slash, has a private Hoochie Stable.
