The Dink Network

I just received this private message by someone who frequents the forums:

"i clicked on someones name and it said he made some reviews, previews, and files...what are these 3 things?"

I replied with something about checking out a dictionary. If anyone else wants to try to answer his question, feel free.

Reviews improve your attacking power. You do more damage if your reviews is higher.

Heh, previews don't show in profiles.

You're right previews don't show up in profiles...

But still, let me try:

"reviews, previews and files are indicators of the amount of spare time somebody wants to waste:

Files: Somebody has loads of spare time to waste.

Reviews: Somebody has less spare time, but enough to crack down on someone else's spare time.

Previews: Somebody thinks he has loads of spare time."

Nice one

Man, someone is either too young or needs to pay attention to his English lessons.

"reviews, previews and files are indicators of the amount of spare time somebody wants to waste:

Files: Somebody has loads of spare time to waste.

Reviews: Somebody has less spare time, but enough to crack down on someone else's spare time.

Previews: Somebody thinks he has loads of spare time."

Nicely said!
Couldn't have done it better myself...
Also kinda funny.

At least tell me he's a... what was the term used by WC?

Well I wouldn't know...WC was before my time...

Donkey?

I think your missing an f-bombing, a bit of dumb prefixed to Donkey, ending with a succicent N00B! But that was WC: N00B Cannon.

f-ing donkey N00B? That's kinda sad...

Re-read it again.

Keep in mind our good ol' swear filter. You never know for sure what someone typed when you see 'donkey'.

So it could be:
f-ing A** N00B
f-ing Jacka** N00B

Second makes more sense

Ass.
Hm, doesn't work.

Jackass.
That isn't it, either...

Arse?
Dammit!

Just kidding, eh, folks. And maybe spamming.

Morrowind ?

Edit: guess not

The (ass -> donkey) has been undone?

Dammit. Now I keep writing donkey for no reason at all.

So I can say jackass now? Besides, its only a donkey.
What about the B word?
TEST: she dog

Edit: Nope, but it only means "she dog" or female dog, but I guess it can be used as a bad word too...

You should notice that I said the word dumb was a prefex too ass.

Yeah, the ass swear filter was removed a few years ago. It was just causing way too much trouble... 'ass' is used in too many legimate words, like assassinate, association, etc.

A few years ago? I could swear that it was up when I was being a "bad little boy." Or maybe I'm thinking the other bad words... I probably am.

Yeah, I used donkey for the nostalgia effect and because it came up a lot in and around his posts.

Well, the 'donkey' was the dark ages of TDN. Now it's ass.

It's the same anyway, so why change at all? I'm keeping the donkey. After all those years of pretended donkey-ness, I even find it easier to type. Donkey has more rhythm than ass.

"I entered my pdonkeyword, but I couldn't log in. What's up?"

"I entered my pdonkeyword, but I couldn't log in. What's up?"

How clever...
