Pickles, Ah Good Times, Good Times...
I mean who could forget these:

or this:

and this:

 
:rofl1: :rofl1: :rofl1:

Omg!  I want those.  LOL, I LOVE pickles!  :lolg:

I mean seriously, we all know we are not supposed to discuss other sites in game.  But, let's face it - we all do it at some point.  I am totally guilty of that.

Whatever do you mean?  Shame on you!  I am innocent I tell you!  INN..O..Cent!  :hmm:  :notme:

Could say but not seen by spare on other screen:
    Elf
    Elf Island
    Island
    Land

Geez VFK, land?  That is a bit extreme isn't it?  I guess I can't buy anymore "  " there.  I guess they are afraid I might find an Elf on it.  :hmmm:  :lolg:

:crazy2: Krazy_Kim :crazy2:

 :laugh2: Krazy, INN...O...Cent  me foot,  :rofl1: 

I, on the other hand, NEVER say other sites there  :shy: :notme: No wonder that VMK/VFK friend never responded when I was asking if  he signed up for Elf Island... :rofl1:


Oh yes, forgot to mention, sometimes the entire sentence will not show up for the "listening" person.... ie,
          was fun to see with 2 screens up:

"what land will come next?"  did not show anything in sentence on the screen for Listeners
"what lands will come next?"  did show entire sentence
"elves" or "elves is here" did show
"elf" does not show

"elves is.lands" and "elves is lands" did not show either
"is land available" did not show
"elves i lands" did show

All this elf talk made me think of something way off topic. (Which makes it right on track for NOBS.)   I guess "Elvis" is probably not in VFK.   :lolg:

Well, everyone might want to be careful in "testing" what can be said. When we saw Astro's post this morning, King and I hopped on to see exactly what could be said and what could not.  I was just putting in phrases, including second life, which did show up in chat. We went on to get a little sleep and I planned on hopping on this afternoon to suggest they add the phrase "second life" to the list of phrases filtered out. When I hopped in game this evening, there was a warning message about third party sites. I did commend them for monitoring what was being said in game so well, even at 5am - and let them know that "second life" should be a no-no phrase also.

Just don't want anyone having any problems because we are all testing the chat. Here is a pic of the warning. (yes, you know I had to add a picture  :lolg: )

Wow!  Thanks for posting all the updates Gang!   :2thunbs:

We are a bad bunch aren't we?!   ;)   We can't stand to stay out of trouble for one second!   :lolp:

My intention was not for anyone to get banned!   :hug:

Aww, hugs everybody!  :bighug: I don't think anyone is going to get banned for testing words, I think this is probably a new automatic message that is being sent if they catch a phrase come up in chat. I mean, I did say "second life" which I'm sure popped up on their radar immediately.  :rofl1: We actually got a good chuckle over it here - so no worries. I did make the "third party" issue into a sticky for now, because it is not really listed anywhere in the VFK Constitution.

OK, so now that this is over, any bridges out there we can block?  :rofl1:

Aww, I can't say:

"I'm going to the "land" down under"

This totally stinks!!

(I will now edit my own thoughts whenever I listen to Men at Work sing "Down Under" - that is if I can still hear myself)

Guess I also won't be telling others, "look in shop button, under Land for new kitchen room" --gosh room sales will go down.

Thanks for the sticky Princess! hmm I mean: Princess, thanks for the sticky! You are not a sticky Princess  :lolg:

Now, I'll try to stay out of trouble!
