Not so many. Rubies don't grow on tress after all.Guess I'll stop watering my ruby plant then...
He said tree. Maybe what you have is a ruby shrubbery. Or a tuber.
Ruby potatoes. That's a market right there.
Well, I don't know, serve them raw with mayo or something, then.
After all, mayo is considered one of the top three condiments that go best with jewelry.

I second Samell's recommendation on the ignore script. It's made my forum browsing experience much more pleasant, despite how few people I have ignored. It turns out that not getting angry all the time is nice, and lets me work on the problem of why I'm getting angry at silly internet posts in the first place.
Why get angry when you can laugh it off instead?
Some of these "infurating posts" are honestly just hilarious half the time.
I suppose that's good that you can do that. I've never been able to manage it. I don't get amusement out of things that make me angry, no matter how ridiculous they may be.
So I just make the people go away.
I would recommend some donations, in the form of paizo.com gift cards, to another_mage if they really like his scripts :)
Also, every now and then take people off the ignore list to give them a chance.
I don't like ignoring people in particular (I have ignored no one), but I have taken on the custom of suppressing certain topics that I know will rustle my jimmies.
My father always says "If you can't say something nice, funny, good, or thoughtful, perhaps is best if you don't say anything at all". So whenever I see I'm reaching a point were my answers could end up being nothing but nicely-worded rants, I take myself out of the topic and click the ignore button, before I regret my words.

Would be a good policy if more people followed it, I agree.
I prefer the ignore script because sometimes I will be reading a topic and the majority of the topic is great, entertaining, or enlightening... but there's that one guy there that always manages to say something that ticks me off. So I just put him on ignore, and go on enjoying the topic. Without the ignore script, hiding the thread would be the only option, and I'd consider that a net loss since the only thing wrong with it was that one guy.

Problem with that is some folks think that being correct trumps being polite. Even when they most often aren't correct.

Even if my brain had that switch, by the time I'd know to throw it the damage would be done.

Well, for what is worth, I think you are one of the coolest and most level-headed lads in these forums.
Heh, thanks. =)
I wonder about my reputation around here, aside from Gorbacz's propaganda about me lacking social skills. Also, I know someone who saw me behave a bit rudely in the last few days. It might have something to do with some frustrating situations I've had lately, mostly involving sickness (been sick for a week now) and the fact that I can't seem to get any writing done.

He is an interdimensional talking bag with teeth, after all. You need to consider his context. Maybe he meant it as a compliment?

This will only end in tears.

There is no chance that you lack social skills to a greater extent than I do. So there's that. :)
Well, there is thi flying skull with ruby eyes that tends to get mad at me in certain off topic threads, albeit he seems to be a cool guy couse in political threads i almost always agree with his opinions.
*blush*
Kryzbyn: What if you are polite AND correct? :D

I prefer to think I'm simply talking to myself and anyone who decides to respond is a figment of my overactive imagination.

Quiet, Lincoln! No one wants to hear from you!
Go away Grover, no one remembers you. Why don't you go get stuck in a tub or something?

Actually, he does get mentioned in this article about Most Athletic Presidents, just not mentioned in a good way. Poor Grover.....
I know I've upset a few people in the past even got an email from paizo once asking me to behave but i'm afraid it's in my nature to "kick the bee hive" from time to time to
Awww, just one "please behave" e-mail, that's so cute. ;-)
I see.
So, you are hoarding a collection of these?

I still remember the time when TOZ and I used to actually disagree on almost anything ... before we realized that we actually agree on almost everything.
It's all a part of my master plan to lull you into a false sense of security and then do nothing about it.
I also have only had one cautionary e-mail from Paizo. Such is the power of the Gninja.

Gninja's emails are so compelling when ninja assassin holds a knife on your throat while you read it, right?
I hate myself *eating icecream from the tub*.
The way myself and SeekerofShadowlight used to disagree I can count him as a former rival I guess, but eventually we stopped disagreeing. I think we ran out of things to disagree about, but when we agreed we were always right. :)
.....!
I got dibs on Sebastian.
Uh...no.
I fortunately don't have enough of a presence on these boards to have a rival. Hooray for lurking!
I think I have a little tiny crush on Orthos, though.
