OK... we've all been there.. You're in chat doing what people do, chatting... Then someone pipes in that doesn't like your topic and is all bent out of shape. I have a big mouth. I chat a LOT. So, I"m constantly attacked by these morons. Here's a recap of the latest incident:
I was in a room, and I am PIZZED at my roommate. She not even really a roommate, she's a friend that my hubby and let bunk at our home till she gets on her feet. Well. I'm in the room, and I say something like, "I wonder if I could get away with killing my roommate?" Then, people were laughing, and were all coming up with ridiculous ways to "off" her. It was all silly. We were obviously KIDDING. Anyway, Some Nanny Goat pipes up and says, "That's enough of that, Libra" :-[ Ummmm, what? She then said I was offensive? I'm like HOW? She honestly took me seriously about my murder plans! ROFLMAO. Everyone in the room was like, OMG, don't you know a joke when you see one? I even told her that I loved my friend, I was just annoyed, and that I would never hurt a flea. I said I was JOKING. I even apologized, saying that I did not mean to offend her. Well, she reported me anyway. Stupid Ninny. So far, Pogo hasn't contacted me... I guess my question is, if I'm reported, will they check my account for auto usage? Or will they just check the specifics of the complaint?
Thanks in advance,
Motor Mouth Libra
Also, I apologize to y'all. That last post was one big heaping pile of grammatical errors.
Lib
they would probably only check for the chat..because if your chatting and using an auto they will probably think you were actually PLAYING since you were chatting too..but my guess... just the chat logs
and some people have no sense of humor ::)
I do what the voices in my head tell me to do but I've run out of places to hide the bodies..LOL besides if you WANTED to kill your roommate why would you run your mouth about it so publicly...

Tee hee! Sometimes, you just gotta say it.
Liberal Libra
you should have told her that after you killed off your roomie youd go look for her :-X
Hello Libra
You just might have hit a nerve on her
it could possibly be something could have happened to her or her family
that it hit such a sour note you just never know It bothered her for some reason
I am just explaining That sometimes people have serious problems
we just never know at times .. But I know you were kidding but she for some reason did not think it was so funny :-\
It really is inanae and insane that someone would take chat about "killing" someone seriously,and report it, how many times do you say and hear others say" I could just kill him/her" Well I guess we are going to jail-- it is a death threat isn't it! :o Now I am glad I never chat 8) O0

Pogobation!!! gotta love that word.
You just never know what could have happened to her and it might just have hit a serious note
And she could have also left and went to another room
But that is what she chose which to me is very wrong to report someone and sad
You just never know What people feel Libra I know you were kidding
and yes it must have been funny Or you would not tell a room full of people lol
Sorry about your experince :-\
I called myself a badge whore and got reported....LOL

OMG!! that's ridiculous!! i've only had to report someone once..can't believe that lady reported you for joking libra!! some people don't know how to take a joke or sarcasm!! geesh!! ::)
chat is what it is chat. I don't care to listen to someone's martial problems or money woes or countless other aches and pains. So then ya gotta worry whats offensive to someone else. Give me a break! Pogo should have better things to do then bend to the whim of some whiny person who wants to control.
My two cents.
no they dont that get way to %%$$$#%$ on pogo i watch ppl in there and i se report after report ppl just want to report cause they have nothing better to do
i have seen many people get reported for so many things some were dumb some where not.. and some got flaged and some got 72 hour band they only look at the chat they can roll it back for along time.i was reported for callin some one the bit..word and got flaged so i reported her for herasment she called me names for over an hour before i said a word could`nt take it any more lol they muted her for 72 hours and flaged her so to the point they only rewind chat!! :)
I had a similar experience in chat..not about killing tho..i was chatting to my daughter about her dad rolling his 4 wheeler but not hurt..and a lady chimed in saying when she read what i said gave her the chills cause she had a son killed on a 4 wheeler..so it might be true that that person your talking about had a bad experience with something like that..don't know.. but i say if you don't like what is being said..thats what the "chat off" option is for. I guess some are nosey to a point of reporting abuse..and i bet some even room hop just to stir up trouble.
so true nanners i`ve seen alot of that to room rovers who like goin room to room causin trouble.. >:(
Reason why I dont chat. Too many people and too many ways of thinking. I just ignore them all
I dont chat a lot either. but sometimes people need a stranger to talk to mabe because they just need to vent a little as long as the person isnt mean or nasty I dont mind a bit to talk to them a lot of people in these rooms are elderly and have no one else to and they are lonely. We never know when we will need someone and your best friend was once a stranger
That is so true lilywhite. :) A lot of lonely people out there
i try to stay out of the topics in chats.. only a few have i put my 2 cents in.. i've seen anything from young people talkin about their sexual escapades, removed internal organs that have mysteriously grown back.. (wanted to send that story to the tabloids), people putting their animals down cuz they poo and pee on the floors instead of getting them trained, money problems, cheatin spouses... you name it.... sure as all of u have seen also.
just think it's pretty dumb to be reported for something that someone has prolly caught the tail end of a conversation and made up their minds of what was being talked about.
if you dont like a conversation that is going on.. A. turn chat off. B. stop lookin at the chat C. uhhh.. can't think of C.. but the previous 2 are good. O0
peeps just like makin trouble is all. dont worry bout it. ::)

Trini I resized your banner. Try it and see if both bears will fit on the same line now.
Sorry that happened to you libra, hope nothing bad comes of it.
Now for a true story related to pogo reporting.
I was showing a real life my friend POGO so I invited him to play chess with me, well he discovered the report user feature and "reported me" just to be funny or something.
I forget what he wrote but it was obiously something made up. well I never got a "pogobation" letter or anything.
so the moral of the story is just because your reported doesnt mean you will be on "pogobation"
the logs will be reviewed and if they find something that directly violates the TS then you get the warning.
so in conclusion though saying you will kill your roomate but then saying your only joking can be in "poor Taste" to some people, I dont see where it violated TS and I think pogo police err admin will come to the same conclusion.

How about C. MUTE ME?!! I told her to feel free to mute me! I wouldn't be offended AT ALL if she muted me. I am SURE I am on a thousand people's mute list, but really, look in to my eyes and see if you see any give a damn!.
I like to chat, I have a lot of friends on Pogo. As a matter of fact, I made such a good friend she's down here visiting me for the next ten days. I especially like funny, humorous chat. I've laughed so hard I've gotten an ab workout.. Laughed my butt off, having so much that I don't even PLAY the durn game. So I'm not stopping any time soon. I just hate these ninnies with their miserable lives who like to make the lives of happy people miserable, too. Well, she tried her best, but guess what? SHE FAILED! I'm still happy, and I'm still on Pogo.
So there.

Yesterday in chat there were two middle aged women talking. One said to the other "My husband snores so badly, keeps me up all night etc, I could throttle him where he sleeps. Kidding, right, I mean kidding. Anyone who ever had hubby keep them up all night with the lying on the back, fliptop head, catching flies mouth snoring act can totally relate. Some miserable sod pipes up with "well you should be pleased you have a husband to snore and keep you awake, my husband passed away this time of year 5 years ago" and really fell out with the wife of the snorer and upset her dreadfully.
Now I feel for her pain and bereavement. but COME ON PEOPLE! Anyone who ever stayed at my house and heard my husband sounding like a 747 taking off in the next door room could empathise ;D
have fun with your friend libra and don't forgot to send all your friends here pictures :P

I definitely can! I have been awake the last 2 mights until 4 - 5 in the morning because of hubby snoring! I just told him if he doesn't soon do something about it, I will! lmao Now I guess I am a terrible person. But hey so is he. How dare him keep me up all night! I guess I had better just say this in the forum tho and not in pogo or I will get my head ripped off. Hmmmmmmm might not be a bad idea then I won't have any ears to hear him! I just can't believe how people get so upset over nothing. I usually just mute if I don't like the chat. Now if there was a mute for hubby at night I would be the happiest person on earth! Anybody out there that can help me find one. lol

OH for the love of God! So, I'm not supposed to bee itch about my dog because I have a dog to bee itch about? Or, I'm not supposed to complain about my hubby sounding like the second coming of Christ when he snores because I have one? So, basically, we're not supposed to complain about something if we have it. That's just moronic. ::)

LMAO Eagles fan. yes vent here, you'll be on pogobation in minutes if you mention the s n * r e word in pogo chat. :D
btw glad I'm not the only one awake at night thanks to hubby related zzzzz-ing
sunny..our good friend from ride the tide said he "reported" me this morning because he was being well, his usually cranky self and I told him to shut his trap after he attacked some poor person over how her hubby snored he then went on to call me a bunch of nasty names in french (which I do know-much to his undelight) and I reported him and told him I knew excatlly what he said and when he said I was a liar and didn't know what he said I proceeded to translate the words for the entire room to see and several others said the reported him to for that now that they know what he said.

This is PRECISELY the reason my hubby and I have separate bedrooms. I mean, we still lay in bed together and watch TV (among other things ???) but when it comes time for sleepy-bye? We go out separate ways. He can toss and turn and flip and flop and snore to his hearts content. I can blast my fan on turbo without him screaming about how cold it is. I can have my frilly girlie room and he can have his manly room. This has worked well for us for 12 years.
However, I'm going to be popping Xanax like M&M's while my pogo friend is here because she's sleeping in my room! roflmao!
RelaxedLibra
Lmao I guess maybe that is what we should do too. I haven't had a good nights sleep in months. I had surgery a 2 months ago and said maybe I will at least get some sleep in hospital. NOT!!!!! I was put in a room with a 102 year old lady(yes she really was ) and all she did was talked in her little confused state of mind all night! Don't know which was worse! lmao I am like you, Libra, sleep with a fan on all the time but that doesn't even help! Oh well guess it is time to rearrange the furniture here! lol
