Just Who In The Hell Are You Selling Our
« on: October 13, 2004, 03:46:00 AM »

granted ... they don't get our info unless we click and answer on their advertisement (periodically at top of page) ... so i suppose you aren't 'directly' responsible ... but who is it that you (and we now) are 'indirectly' supporting? ... who are these people you've sold ad space to who are asking about our general socio- statistics without giving any indication or who THEY are? ... M$?

(yall, please look for 'strong armed woman' at bottom left of top vert - as in 'divert.'  but i wouldn't suggest answering their questions.)

you on the DL or the LD Xbox-scene.com?

i'm really looking for an answer here!

if the board needs $ just ask US!  i'd give twice what i give to NPR or the Smith for what i'm getting here!  no need to court others.

i wonder if i'll be able to post 24 hours from now.

PS ... within the hour, this post's link will have been PMed to every moderator on this board.

(boy, i always loved gettin into trouble!)

(this post has been brought to you by the letter 'C', that rymes with 'T,' that stands for 'P,' that rhymes with 'nothin but a nuther cryptogram for ya man') (notice the 'too?')

I don't really have any idea what you're talking about or trying to ask, however, I'm moving this to the Compliments / Suggestions / Complaints Forum.

What are you talking about?

Ok, why PM me LUXI and what's the point of your post?

Btw, X-S doesn't say anything about selling your info or not when you sign up.

Just a big question:

What in the world are you talking about and why send me a pm about this?!

You do not think a mail or a pm to one of the site admins with a DETAILED explanation of the thing on your mind would be a better thing?

I'm making a formal complaint about this user. Spamming through PM's.  <_<

ok ok ... no more spamming through PMs

i was raised to question authority ... so i'll have to ask for you to excuse me.

i may have gone about advertising this thread wrongly, but my question is still very valid ... i just wondered what all yall's opinion was about this info selling the board is evidently undertaking.

i'll not bother any of you guys ever again ... but do YOU ever wonder who's selling or buying your personal info?

and thank you chefelf for giving me the correct environment ... i must've passed over noticing the Compliments / Suggestions / Complaints Forum.

not only am i hyper vigilant, i'm also a shit stirrer ... so pay no attention to me.

i'm just fartin in the wind here fellas.

nothing to do with anything here really, i just don't like it when i check out at best buy and they ask me my zip code.

(please do read the last two lines in my first post above)
(i suppose i could've chosen a lesser topic through which to transmit my message)

DOS4GW:  I'm definitely agreeing with you there man ... 'X-S DOESN'T say anything about selling your info or not when you sign up' ... you are absolutely right.

sorry chelelf ... didn't finish reading your post.

here's what ya do ... work your way through and around the website here and keep paying attention to the advertisement at the top of the page ... i forget what the rest of it looked like ... but when you see an add up top with a 'strong armed woman' at the bottom left side, click on it and see where it takes you.

maybe it's because i'm from the mountains ... but sometimes i don't understand how lots of folks are able to stomach such Huxley-like interjections.

it might help you to know you're reading a guy's thoughts who threw out his tv (John Prine style).

I understand what you are saying.... and I've come to the conclusion that you are an idiot.

hey mrRobinson

i gotta say, i'm operating with Win Me, and your tut was the only one that brought me up to speed ftp-ing to my box ... yours was the break-thru thread for me ... so my deepest thanks for taking the time to write it all out.

as for the rest ... i don't think any of us here are idiots.  we're all a little different from the rest of the world, i'm guessing.  pretty is as pretty does? no?

best line i ever heard in a movie? ... from the usual suspects ... 'best trick the devil ever played was to make everyone believe he didn't exist.'

i do like your style, though, i do like your style

may i remind us all of benny franklin's well known quip? ' the greatest minds ... '  not that i am one, but it's something good to keep in mind nonethless

this is a man who personally designed his entire first floor of his downtown Philadelphia home to consist of nuthin but wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows ... just so he could walk around naked in broad daylight ... which he did almost everyday.

ever hear of a man named Nikola Tesla?

just remember 'ki-o-TA'

(now where's that other screw? ... here it is ... screech screech screech)

well, now that i'm thinking better about it ... i'd be stupid if i spent any more time on these tangents rather than getting myself more back on task.  maybe i just need to find a secondary discussion board to vent these excess energies.  i'll see what i can do about that.

sorry there ohoatam.  sometimes i just like to play with lines of thought to see who's gonna follow.  i really don't expect anyone to figure out what i'm saying up there.  i just said it on the off-chance someone might.

you know those two guys who created The Simpsons?  they said in an interview a couple years ago that they'd quit the show if people ever started to actually understand it.

One guy created the Simpsons... and everyone understands it, hence the tremendous success it has had.

wow this post has gone crazy!

i didn't see the actual interview ... heard that on some mediocre day show ... something like ET or similar ... that's just what they (or i guess now, 'he') was porported to have said ... although i'm not sure he's lived up to his prediction as, i agree, lots of people do now understand the simpsons.

actually, i believe that interview may have been done sometime when the simpsons were fairly new to television...like when not as many people were catching on ... hence my reference.

This is an annoying thread.  XBOX-SCENE does not sell your information.  Besides, what information do we have to sell?

Stay of the acid, your very paranoid.
