P.S: Excellent that you know all that English, but remember, there are very many 'youngsters' who are merely 16 and are a part of the DT, make it easier for them. 😳

That is THE MOST SHAMEFUL aspect of this!!! That 16 year olds are at this site in positions of oversight .. it behooves them to be hitting their school books .. which is where I feel YOU should be too!!

Ciao!!

You're not perfect either.

How right you are!! 'Almost perfect' will HAVE to be good enough!!! It's a dirty job .. I know .. but somebody's got to do it!!! 😆

Besides, I said that despite my 4 decade seniority, I CAN interact at your level!! That's what I'm doing NOW!! And having oodles of FUN!!! 😆

Oh i will give you a holler for sure. And again, this place was to lay down problems NOT insult the DT or any other members and ur doing nothing but that. Rudeness isn't a solution to your problems or anyone else's.

Your eminence!! May I emphasize .. the raison d'etre of this page is YOUR opinion!! Furthermore, 'rudeness' is a RELATIVE term .. do take the second or two to review my response to your compatriot above .. sorry, don't remember her name ..

And if your complaint is that DT members can't speak english as well as you, then i suggest you start talking in a way they understand you so they can solve your problems.

Darling, before getting all hot around the collar, do take the minute or so to familiarize yourself with the nature of my 'complaint' .. once you've done that, let's discuss!

I am a student, i am 17, not old but i know my English, I live in US and i am a straight A student with Advanced and honors classes, if i can be colloquial so other can understand me better, then i suggest you do the same.

Oh dear, oh dear!! You can 'suggest' till you're blue in the face!! But, lest you report me to Ms. Manners .. congratulations on being 17 (it's VASTLY SUPERIOR to the alternative of not getting there), and on your exemplary academic achievements (I sure hope that my 'HARD' words will help you with your SAT!) .. you see, here in my dotage (past 50 y'see), I remain .. uh .. lemme see .. a wee bit unimpressed .. when they award you the Nobel, my interest will be suitably piqued!! Until then ..

You'r not proposing a solution, your promoting something other website, which, let me remind you, is against the rules of I-F. And if your excuse is that DT breaks the rules as well, again, give me a chance to remind you, 1. your not a part of the DT, 2. Your just stooping at their level.

And Please watch your tone.

Well .. if I'm flaunting IF 'rules', let me bear the consequences!! After all, these mods are doing PRECISELY the same thing - no? Flogging the hoi polloi for breaking the rules!! Oh! BTW!! Have you studied Martin Luther King's premise that one is beholden to break 'unjust' rules??!! Yes? No?! Maybe that will happen in your senior year (y'see, I too live in the US .. but did not have the same academic record of which you are the proud bearer!!! Oh well! Live and learn!!) .. sigh!

As to my 'tone' .. I reserve the right to decide when/how I use it - SAVVY??!! Kiddo!!! 😊

But I must say, I AM having fun with you teeny-weenies!!! Maybe Priya Nair should continue to remain incommunicado!! I'll have to get all serious then!!! Shucks!!! 😭

My dear Mr. SmileyFace,

Pardon me coming into ur convesation (and plz dont bash me for the way i type...im not in english class or in school right now where i need proper english)

I should not DREAM of bashing someone who begins their interaction with me with an apology (verbal 'flogging' is meted out only to the 'deserving'! 😊). But, to be fair, should 'proper' English only be reserved for 'English class' .. in school?! Dunno .. but I always make it a point not to butcher a language over which I have a fairly decent command! 😉

but if u say ur 50 or older...why in the world are u sitting here arguing/telling/what ever it is ur doing..with a 17 yr old..the only thing shes trying to do is fix a problem and get a solution to something...

Well .. at this point, now that I know the age group of some of those on this thread, I am just exercising that streak of Schadenfreude that ALL of us have .. it's FUN to see those still in virtual diapers exude SUCH aplomb and conviction that not only are they UNMISTAKABLY right but are the self-anointed saviors of the world!! It is ESPECIAL fun when they have not done the requisite amount of leg work to acquaint themselves with the problem that brought me here .. which I have aired in fairly straightforward terms!! Furthermore, you SIMPLY must tell me where an age 'limit' has been specified that constrains one from participating!! You SIMPLY, SIMPLY MUST!!! 😆

Also, DO tell me if there have been others who have voiced displeasure here with many aspects of the Admin. team's behavior, or is it just one hapless 17 year old (say that in as plaintive a voice as possible for an authentic effect 😆).

there is no need for u to get all frazzled for something like this...enjoy the forum...and yes u are totally entitled to post ur opinion but dont make it to a point where ur egging ppl on...thats not the purpose of this post.

Ohdearohdearohdear!! You do know what 'getting frazzled' means - right?! Do I sound like I'm getting frazzled??! How do I assure you of how TICKLED PINKI am to be interacting with you young 'uns??!! As for the 'purpose' of this post! Why, Mr. SmileyFace, it got similarly 'shanghaied into friendlier waters' once before as well (and I'm the person who remarked on it!), so what's the problem if that should come to pass again??!!

Ohdearohdearohdear!!

Let's all get down to being all serious and self-righteous when/if the Admin. shows his/her face - OK??!! 😆

I think you need to go to manners and etiquettes school before you tell anyone else how to talk or behave. If you have a problems with 16 year olds being here, then i suggest you deal with it because the world does not revolve around your rules and your expectations of sixteen year olds. It's their choice, not yours. And she is not sixteen, and if your, oh let me think what did you say?, yeh, FOUR decades older than all of us, i suggest you be behaving FOUR times more maturley than us especially since ur the only one whos capable of thinkig rationally here because uve passed the early tweties of your life. May i suggest, look at yourself befor judging others. Forgive me to break your pretty little rainbow colored bubble, You're not perfect either.

Believe me, your impoliteness around the place wont affect the DT anymore than the politeness does! I've have better experience being the later and so I shall stick to it!

Right! When you have MY problem resolved with YOUR kind of politeness, do me the favor of letting me know!! I've tried it your way!! Even better, when you have the problems enumerated here resolved by using YOUR way, I promise to eat my best Sunday Hat (and those don't come cheap!) ..
