Good Morning

what's with the single word posts?
6:03 am
ItalianGreyhound
morning - thats just Molly editing the chat log - removing some post she doesnt like
6:06 am
worzel
Bit militant. The chog is here for everybody - if somebody posts something offensive then fair enough, but I've seen the entire chog today and there's nothing offensive so maybe Molly is the one with the problem, not anybody else.
6:07 am
ChampFit
She might have been pushing the hints down so they aren't immediately showing. Whatevs!
6:07 am
MollyL
No one posted anything offensive
6:08 am
worzel
As I said, everybody is entitled to post. Moving "hints" down is unfair. But hey, whatevs.
6:09 am
ChampFit
I don't think so. You can always scroll the whole thing. I do that sometimes when I've done my first pass. Good morning!
6:11 am
MollyL
Yep, the whole chat is available when you click on the VIEW THE ENTIRE CHAT LOG icon. Good morning Champ.
6:11 am
worzel
Just play nice, play fair, that's all I'm saying - no need to ruin it for anybody else.
6:11 am
ChampFit
STOP YELLING AT ME MOLLY! :) JK...
6:11 am
MollyL
What was ruined?
6:12 am
worzel
It's ok, I can see what's going on here - clique, clique clique . . .

6:14 am

not
6:14 am
ChampFit
Certainly seems that way. It's 6:13 a.m. here in very hot south Texas, and I'm not about to argue. The day is young!
6:14 am
ItalianGreyhound
entertained
6:15 am
worzel
I don't have a thorn in my knickers. There are certain people in here that obviously post a lot and some that very rarely post, and those that post a lot think they are the only ones with a right to post anything, therefore pushing everybody else out of the chog. If you don't want somebody's posts showing apart from your own then that is bullying.
6:15 am
ChampFit
I.G...you ready to spontaneously combust yet? SO DANG HOT!!!
6:15 am
MollyL
You all really have been slammed by the heat Champ
6:16 am
ChampFit
Truth. Bugs me more for the dogs. It's hard on them, so we can only take them on short walks when the sun is down.
6:18 am
MollyL
Any relief in sight?
6:19 am
ChampFit
Not till after the 4th, I think. This too shall pass!
6:20 am
worzel
Annoying, isn't it?
6:20 am
MollyL
Better days indeed Champ
6:21 am
ItalianGreyhound
nice grid, tho
6:22 am

good morning Babble friends! How bad is the heat?
6:22 am
ChampFit
100 and above with ALL the humidity. Like a huge sauna.
6:24 am
saanichcat
you have my sympathy for sure. Hope it cools off soon
6:24 am
worzel
I'm leaving. You've got what you wanted - you've bullied another person into submission. Hope you all have a good day.
6:25 am
ChampFit
I have no idea.
6:29 am
ItalianGreyhound
might have been playing us - oh well
6:30 am
ChampFit
So weird.
6:49 am
MollyL
Are you bullies still here? I thought you would have moved on by now, to beat someone else into submission😊.

excuse me coming through with equimpent to rebuild the sensitive room near the PB
8:35 am
hokie carla
I didn't understand anything that happened there
8:38 am
rururocks
you won't.. it's just a few dumbshits overreacting to nothing
8:38 am
hokie carla
but I also didn't understand what molly was moving off. didn't see anything other that the usual flipchat
8:39 am
saanichcat
I think Molly was bringing the line length back. And people thought she was hiding something.
8:40 am
hokie carla
yeah, that's the usual reason but I couldn't see that in the log
8:41 am
saanichcat
forever a mystery!
8:41 am
BzznBea
and waht was rainqui's post about
8:42 am
hokie carla
well, I think she's right, a lot of the flippers haven't been chatting in a while, but I have no idea what happened 3 weeks ago
8:42 am
saanichcat
well there are some folks who don't play regularly, like freep.
8:42 am
rururocks
it looks to me like Molly was goofing around and it doesn't take much for a few people to fly off the handle.
8:42 am
saanichcat
AND there are summer holidays...
8:43 am
hokie carla
I def don't understand the molly bullying by scrolling the chat argument
8:44 am
rururocks
you can't understand it hokie.. some people just carry grudges for their lives.. and can't move on
8:45 am
saanichcat
nothing happened three weeks ago except that that a couple of high callers at flip changed, for various reasons, like holidays...
8:50 am
hokie carla
well, I did get HOET but 56 left. going to visit my mom so prob won't finish today. good luck, y'all!

Hi Molly - I guess the usual crew finished earlier
1:47 pm

Some did, some had other plans. Thank God. It's good to get out there and enjoy life.
1:48 pm

understandable. I certainly enjoyed getting out of my rut with a trip to the coast last week
1:49 pm

Good for you.

5:38 pm

What's all the drama earlier today here about? Was it me putting too many hints out early? I can cut back on that if it's rude.
7:46 pm
penquis
i don't think it had anything to do with you....shouting out stats at the flip is how this game has been played as long as I can remember....
7:46 pm
gremlinn
Rainiqui seems to have a problem when I do.
7:47 pm
penquis
well everybody else does it, too....
7:47 pm
penquis
one can turn off the chat if one doesn't want to see the stats...
7:47 pm
dcseain
when I started playing, we waited an hour before we did that.
7:48 pm
penquis
for me, i think it's better right aftr the flip....easier to avoid it if one is so inclined...
7:48 pm
gremlinn
I'll cut back on it, anyway.
7:48 pm
penquis
don't have to....up to you....
7:49 pm
dcseain
yes, there used to more chatting around the flip. I noticed that stopped at some point.
7:49 pm
gremlinn
Yeah, for a while, I liked finding everything myself so I just hid the chat until I was done.
7:49 pm
gremlinn
Now I don't like spending so much time per day so I just take the calls people make and accept the help to speed things up.
7:50 pm
penquis
everybody can play the way they prefer....it's one of the things i like about this game...
8:23 pm
Nef
I’ve been playing for a very long time; I play for fun but some people seem to play to competer or whatever & some players get bossy in chat. I don’t like it when people think they can make to rules here or bully others, I either slide chat off the page or speak up. I refuse to put up with that.
8:32 pm
dcseain
I'm aware, of one bullying person regularly in the chat. But, yeah.
9:13 pm
rururocks
there are quite a few chat bullies DC.. if you really think about it
9:15 pm

9:31 pm
Dorens
Mothers can definitely be a trip. Ihave my year old grandkid spending the night and he's so adorable and so exhausting. Will have to wake up at 5:30 most likely, and then driving up to MA for few days at friend's house. Would love to finish but hitting a wall at 67. Of course if I list that would definitely help
9:32 pm
hokie carla
I have 53 left. I brought all my laundry with me because we are having issues at my house, so I will be working on that a while!
9:32 pm
