The PPC Posting Board - Latest posts

Take as much time as you need, I don't mind at all. Those things are much more important, though I'm glad your father's apparently feeling at least somewhat better (I mean, there wouldn't be talk of letting him out if he wasn't, unless the doctors have gone loopy). Hope it all goes over well, though.

That would be very handy!

(minor update - I'm keeping my LJ for personal stuff and friendslocking it, and PPC and fic stuff will go onto two separate journals co-owned by Pads and I on Dreamwidth)

But I'd still like to. Don't suppose the Flowers could loan you a neuralyser, could they? ;)

... I have to work with him, and will do for the rest of my life. NZ geology and palaeontology isn't such a big field that I can risk making a huge deal of this. It's best to just let it blow over, which I am doing. If he and I fell out over it, not only would I end up losing a mate (yes, a mate who's currently being a dickhead, I know) but also a potential collaborator and someone who would then in the future probably be in the right place to, if he so chose, reject any of my academic papers that came his way for review. Not that I think he *would*, but it's worth bearing in mind.

I appreciate the sentiment a lot, just so you know. But duck and cover is still my best option :)

BASTARD. How much is a flight up there? I'm going to break his teeth.

I've already had the 'friendly, joking' blackmail threats, and everytime he says the word 'art' or 'creativity' in front of anyone else he gives me the I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER eyebrow.

A) There is NO SUCH THING as a friendly joking blackmail threat, blackmail is NOT FUNNY and people have been ruined by this sort of thing

and

B) I now feel kind of violated.

I know it'll blow over and it was my own stupid fault for forgetting to lock an entry that had a word pertinent to his research interests in it, but ... it's like a gut-punch to have someone actually tell you that they think you're disgusting, even if they said it supposedly jokingly, and then to, even 'jokingly', threaten that they've 'saved all the bits they need' and that they could 'have fun' with this ... it hurts.

I got scolded for talking about work on a LiveJournal during my internship last summer. It could have been worse--it could have been a real job--and this is a slightly different situation, but I still feel your pain. Hopefully it won't come to anything major. *hug*

Let me know if there's something I can do to help.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

You're seeking permission, too? Well, I guess you'll get it sooner than I will :)

When the Chicken-Dance music started playing, all was lost...

It's not like you were going on about how much you hate everyone at your work and want to kill them all, is it? You just happen to like writing about teh mansecks. Which you write well. So please, keep telling us when you have new shinies for us! *gives cookies to the Trojie*

Some fic just makes you want to hide in a corner...or strangle something. Or both!
I have two kill lists, one for sporking and one for PPC if I get permission. Sadly no matter how much sporking I do the first list seems to get longer...

Well, I was intending to get on with a beta for Lily Winterwood this evening, and then I'd be free to go over yours, as I skipped seeing either parent today because I sense an incoming lurgy and have no wish to spread swine flu round Hull Royal Infirmary. But then the post above this thread happened, so that's eating up my time. In better news, there's talk of my dad being allowed home at the weekend, so that'll free up some time. SO I'll see what I can do over the weekend, but no promises.

It only affects future posts. This is why, if you look at my lj when you're not logged in, aside from a few random posts it looks like I've been utterly silent since 2006 - couldn't be bothered to go back and flock all those posts. Must get round to that one day.

I've never used it either. Got an account but never needed it. Only one of my contacts has switched over to dw, and they've got their flist imported so I miss nothing, which is how I know that's possible. At any rate, I'm going to be thrown in at the deep end as soon as the import's finished, because there's going to be a lot of tidying up to do.

Let me know and I'll get onto it. I've never touched Dreamwidth before so it'll take me a little while.

*hugs Pads* Here's to good friends. *sigh* I really ought to pull my real-world stuff from my account, too.

But I'm not sure if that changes ones you've already posted or will only affect those you post in the future.

Incidentally, I cannot wait for the day lj introduces blanket privacy setting options. One should not have to manually go through each post.

By the way, I just logged out of LJ, and there are three posts not locked - I assume you're getting to them, but just in case, they are:

Good luck. :(

Dreamwidth allows us to import a friendslist and basically means you'll still see our posts on your lj flist, and will have permission to comment on them on dw even if they're locked. So it shouldn't be too much of a bother, really.

As for the tracing Trojie back, I think the most important thing is getting the porn separated from the uni-related posts. If each is on a separate account, and the two aren't linked, then even if someone knows it's the same person posting, it's hardly sullying the good name of Trojie's uni, and what she posts on her own time is, obviously, her own business. And I always post the porn if she's at work anyway, so that's alright.

Also, we'd been meaning to tidy up that lj for a while anyway - for a start, Trojie doesn't like having her fanfic and her PPC missions all mixed up together and on an account she uses on various comms both to post fic and to find badfic. This has just meant we've had to get on with the process rather sooner than intended, that's all.

I'm in the process of importing the missions to a dreamwidth account; we've gone with rc45 as a username, if anyone wants to add it. There'll be a separate journal for other fanfic too.

I can make it do that. Or rather, Pads can, at the moment, because she's being a star and sort of doing the organising, as well as having gone through and helped me lock every single post to my LJ, because my brain has gone flurgy
