Canada.

That is all.

Canada.

That is all.

CANADA!!!

Seriously, I'm starting to think your politeness is a fatal flaw; if you'd been aggressive and taken over the US when you had the chance, there'd be universal healthcare, good internet, grumble grumble...

[Descan]

Oh, sorry.

That was in reference to the data-cap rage about Comcast.

Take a look at -our- caps and data rates. :I

[Xantalos]

Indeed.

Well, by now I just assume all mentions about how Canada does things that don't explain more than "we do it different" is meant to say Canada does it better .

To be fair, they did manage to burn our capital down when we were at war.

[Skyrunner]

Weren't they possessed by the french then?

[Rose]

They had an exorcism.

[Putnam]

No, it was Britain.

Welp, I decided to see if I could sign up for NaNoWriMo tonight (and if not for some reason, put it off 'till tomorrow). Turns out this is the second site I've run into that claims "lue" is a spammy sort of username. They provided a helpful link to "Stop Forum Spam", a service they apparently use, where I could clear that username.

First annoyance there: the search function claimed "lue" was too short a query to run through their search function (yet apparently not too short to block ) Since that wasn't important anyway, I found the request removal button.

Second annoyance: (aside from the vague statement about not accepting claims from "disposable email accounts", which I presume includes my gmail account) They said that if it was just the username, and not also either the IP or email, that I can't contact them anyway and should instead badger the originating site.

So I have to tomorrow send off an email to NaNoWriMo insisting that yes, I really am trying to become lue.

 

The good name of Life U. Everything is being tarnished on the Internet, and I fear I cannot stand for such impudence!

(and it looks like finding the right email address/way to use uservoice will be a fun activity as well. I'd just go for one of my alternates, but this is severely aggravating. There aren't even any numbers in the username for chrissake!)

To be fair, the whole reason I have the 'Pro' in my username is because some websites require 7+ character long usernames.

Hey, did you guys know that The Crucible is misogynist crap and that I am misogynistic for defending it.

[Putnam]

I add a 3145 to my name for sites that have Putnam already taken or that require 7 letters because nostalgia.

[sjm9876]

Thanks guys. I just had to get it out. Now I feel way better. 

I only just read this, and I have to say, i've never felt like someone else's situation so closely matches my own. Seriously, don't let it build up is the best advice I can give. This thread is here for a reason. Otherwise, hang on in there mate.

[miauw62]

I also feel you, Cmega. I'm lucky enough to have some friends that seem to honestly care about me, tough. And parents that aren't assholes.

I don't think they apologized for that, which, according to Canadian constitution, officially makes them non-Canadian.
