Man, I want some weirdo posts! All the messages I get are nice and sweet.

Except one....it really burned me up. I had started a thread about rape and the person sent me a message asking if he/she could talk to me about it. Of course I said yes, then I got a "pornographic" reply. It was truly disturbingly sick.

Other than that, my messages are nice but boring.

I want to save the world!

I think the most interesting PM I've gotten is from a member begging to hear my singing.

I obliged him...but, that's never happened since.

Yeah, I know about those. I recall a few years back, the first time I posted a thread with the title all in block caps. Got a U2U from a staff member informing me of the rule about that and I almost freaked out because I didn't know that one. But at least I knew not to do that again.


Staff are usually only serious when they need to be. Being serious all the time is just a pain.

All I ever get are:

Lots of Respected Foe notifications from members I never knew existed (lolz)
Hate mail. (even more lolz)
The occasional creepy creeper being creepy.
"Post removed" by moderators notifications.
The very rare friendly non-creepy "Hello".

... In about that order of frequency.

Seems the nutters only want you to help them if they think you're a sucker that's receptive to their swill?

No, that's because you keep your mystic keyboard in the teapot to protect it from evil spirits and whatnots or whatever... probably... i think?


Oops gotta go... wifey wants to pinch the comp and it's my turn to cook (erm take the frozen pizzas out of the box and put in oven)

Kindest respects

I'm in, but we might need to add some beer and wine to our kits- you know, just in case!


May I join, if I bring my traveling bar. I use a magic spell to shrink it for easy transport....




I've had my fair share of *those* u2u messages. Some are entertaining, some are kind of disturbing. Have you ever reported a u2u because it was just so far off base. I have, only once.

Des you are welcome anytime!

I've personally never reported any strange U2Us, but if one were disturbing enough there is no doubt that I would in a heartbeat! So far they have been too funny to be disturbing.

you are so in, not only because of the awesome trolley of treats, but if you are using magic then surely we get to wear groovy robes and pointy hats and that which is beyond awesome.

i've never reported anyone yet, i know the option is there, but i have a wealth of experience in talking therapies and nothing on here has ever been as "original" as stuff i have dealt with outside of ATS... i have some proper oddball stories from work, but client confidentiality trumps all (sometimes unfortunately)

I've conquered the U2U issue by never opening any of them. I'm a lonely, lonely man and, over time, that big green window that tells me I have U2U's has become my best friend.

I call him Whit the Window - and he and I eat dinner together every night. He never laughs at my jokes, but he never says they are bad either. And he's loyal... he's there when I wake up and he's there when I go to bed. What more could a man ask for?

Whit is my hero..

No one ever responds to my u2u's which is kindof rude IMO. I have not sent many but the ones I receive if they need a response I respond, I mean how hard it to say thanks for the link or the thought or whatever.


Never sent a u2u that wasn't responded to, or received one that I didn't reply to.
It's just good form to do so.

By doing so I've made many friends on ATS and we mostly share personal jokes that crop up in our threads occasionally.

You're correct to not respond to a u2u is rude even if you feel uncomfortable with the subject matter in which case still respond but be firm and polite IMHO

I agree, life sucks enough already, you really need someone who doesnt take it all to seriously.
Besides, I she must have one sexy brain, she seems very smart, smart enough to intimidate me even, which isnt somthing I am used to at all.

I better just stfu, before I evoke her eternal wrath.

- Most U2Us I get are nice.

- Got two this past week asking about my avatar.

- Once in a while I get an idiot spewing ignorance at me via U2U. If they do it more than once I forward them to the moderators so they can deal with the person and so I don't get into a U2U spitting war.

- And of course the 'removed off topic post' notifications.

- And sometimes an 'applause' notification.

- I got a U2U about two weeks ago .. the person (a regular poster) asked me about a certain subject and I answered ... but they never got back to me with their information on that subject. I thought it was strange. I think I scared him off with the answer to the question.
(the subject was about a certain dark metaphysical force .. so perhaps I spooked him with what I said)

Okay .. I just sent you a U2U ... the title said 'OPEN THIS OPEN THIS'.
Sorry .. just had to do it.

You know,

I started out to make a totally different post when I read this thread. But now I just want to say this:

If we can't count on one another to send completely weird U2Us to each other's in box; then whom can we count on?

If I wanted normal friends, I never would have joined ATS. I trip over 50 normal friends just getting to the car in the morning.

I am amazed at the coping mechanisms that some of you have had to concoct to deal with your 'U2U problem', how can it be that bad?

Anyhow, if any of you would like to send weird U2Us to my inbox, feel free, That's what I'm here for.
