Re: Chat Thread 40: Where in the World is JeffCvt?
I need to invest in netflix. It could save me a lot of money.
Since red box has been killing the chain stores, the few surviving independently owned stores are starting to thrive again. They just use the same hook that allowed them to survive when the chains killed their peers. They just carry movies that the "family friendly" chains would never carry. Blockbuster had a strict policy of not carrying films that were rated NC-17. Also, they tended to be very lackluster in terms of their foreign films, art films and documentaries that they carried.
Also, a lot of movies are on youtube these days, legally and illegally. Indy studios like Troma and Full Moon have all their films on youtube. Some films get posted their without consent, and then there is the wonderful world of public domain films that have no copyright.

Re: Chat Thread 40: Where in the World is JeffCvt?
Since this thread has died for a forum-moment, why don't we discuss the current state of the forum? Or something else forum related?
The forums ARE getting pretty slow. I guess the newness wore off on many. Also, I call one of the future Chat Threads being named "Address Thread X: The State of the Forum"

Re: Chat Thread 40: Where in the World is JeffCvt?
I never really understood how forum chats work. Someone starts talking, another person talks about it or something else related and so on and so forth. Whenever it came down to chatting, I almost always have a hard time keeping my end in the conversation, unless I have something to discuss about. Sometimes I start talking about myself for no apparent reason... kind of like what I'm doing right now...
Heellooooooooo!! Anyone who wants to talk to me, please do. I get lonely sometimes and I get scared whenever I talk first...

Re: Chat Thread 40: Where in the World is JeffCvt?
The discussion guidelines for this chat thread are included in its first post. Basically, you may discuss any topic allowed under the forum rules, including those with dedicated threads, as long as those do not take over conversation for more than a few posts. This is in forum format, so that means you don't post "hellos" or "goodbyes" or say things like "wow, nobody's posting, it's really dull here..." *giggles* Further, the topic is fluid. If you can't contribute to the current one, you may say whatever you like (again, within the forum rules) and be perfectly fine.
As far as the forums at large go, I haven't noticed a huge decrease in activity. I look at posts per day and the number of views certain threads have and they don't change a lot. Having said that, this is also the conclusion of the school year for many parts of the United States and Canada, if not other places, so students are taking final exams and will have less free time till sometime next month. After almost five years here, I can tell you the months of June, July, and August are typically our most busy and post volume fluctuates through the remaining months.
If anyone has feedback or suggestions for the forums or site in general, I'd be glad to hear them, by the way. We're pretty open to most suggestions and there's a thread for that.

there's always been one, but until Rick recently went through and set custom replacements for the words, it turned them into asterisks.Liam wrote:since when is there a swear filter

Interesting. I always thought that you had to self-filter here. Is the swear filter present on all threads?

Yes, across all forums. If you DO want to self-censor, you may obliterate the word with asterisks. Otherwise, we'll transform it into something (probably hilarious) for you.

Re: Chat Thread 40: Where in the World is JeffCvt?
I can vouch for the funniness of some of the filters.
Some of them are as follows:
I'm a loser with no friends
muffins and cookies
Bicycle Repair Man
bubblegum
Just another reason I love this forum.
(Just a note: Please don't make posts with words that will get filtered just to see what will happen. If you want to see what a specific word will turn into, you can always use the "preview" button next to the "submit" button. Just be sure not to post, because if you happen to find a word that isn't caught by the filter, you will still get in trouble.)

Not sure why but I read fear swilter instead of swear filter. Needless to say I'm going to use that quite a bit now.

Re: Chat Thread 40: Where in the World is JeffCvt?
You have the wrong idea. This isn't a thread to specifically talk about where in the world I happen to be located. This is the chat thread, where anything (within forum limits) can be talked about. It's tradition to start a new one every 50 pages, and each new one gets a new name. Near the end of chat thread 39, we were talking about how my location is a mystery to all of the members, so it was decided that would be the name of this chat thread.
And for the record, only three non-mod members know what state I live in. I don't believe anyone else knows.

Re: Chat Thread 40: Where in the World is JeffCvt?
Given the amount of possible names you could have I would say that I will not be guessing it any time soon, that and you could just deny everything. My knowledge in geography is also poor, I can't name 20 of the US states so I won't be guessing that either. I could track your IP but that takes time and would be pointless.
California is my first guess, I'm assuming that's not it?

Maryland or Massachusetts? Those are basically the only two that are not so well known by the British, so either of them?

I posted some autographs made out to myself earlier in this thread, so I think everyone knows my first name. And Beagle knew it before that when she called my mom to tell her I was alive when the flood destroyed my phone. I still had internet access, but no one in my family checks their email more than once a week!

I actually get my username from my real name. If you ever saw my real name, you would probably figure out that it's me.
