I screwed up a quote!

[Godless Dave]

#363. Can you delete it please?

Feature request: Giving users the ability to edit quotes they submitted.

[livius drusus]

Done, Dave. That would be a good feature indeed. The only thing we could do right now would be to activate moderation of quotes that way vm and I could edit them before they get posted.

User edits is something we'd have to hack. I'll see if maybe the coder who's supporting the hack can help us out. Meanwhile, do you think we should turn on moderation?

[Godless Dave]

Meanwhile, do you think we should turn on moderation?

No, too much work for you and vm, and we'd have to wait for our quotes to show up.

[TomJoe]

Yet another casualty of this nations "fast food mentality". :P

[livius drusus]

Oh well if y'all offered us Sonic burgers for every edit we wouldn't have a problem here.

[TomJoe]

Sonic Burgers? :verysick:

I mean, what hamburger joint only offers, as standard fare, mayo or mustard for hamburgers?

Where in the heck is the ketchup?!?!

All over the fries.

[TomJoe]

All over the fries.

Well now... that's understandable.

[livius drusus]

Ketchup is on my Great List of No, I'm proud to say. I will occasionally dabble in it when circumstances require, but mustard alone is now and always will be my default condiment choice.

So there.

And to think... I respected you up until this point.

I am now heart broken. :sobbing:

Well, at least you'll never make the mistake of putting ketchup on hot dogs.

[livius drusus]

There, there, TomJoe. All our heroes fall sometime. I hear the Pope farts in elevators and blames the Swiss Guards.

LOL. Well, at least those Swiss Guards are good for something then! :P

[livius drusus]

You mean besides decoration, I hope. Cause they're damn good at that. :lecher:

You obviously have impeccable taste. Mustard is The One True Condiment.

[livius drusus]

Thank you! Finally, another prophet worthy of the name.

Hey!

You're THE "John Carter"?!?

Tars Tarkas sends his regards.

"The Synthetic Men of Mars" was the first science fiction/fanstasy book I ever read. It was given to me in a stack of books that no one else in my family wanted after my Grandfather died. I quickly absorbed all of Burrough's writings and even taught myself Martian Chess (and played it regularly with a few friends of mine). I still have the entire Martian series (1950's editions) three original Tarzan books (printed in England) and a bundle of fond memories that your avatar has brought flooding back to me.

You wouldn't also happen to be a fan of the shortlived British TV hero series "The Champions" would you?

:wave:

[John Carter]

Helium salutes you, Tars Tarkus.

I also began my reading of sci-fi/fantasy with ERB's Martian series. My father had inherited first editions of the first 4, as well as first editions of the first five of the Tarzan series from his father. We also had some miscellaneous first edition Burroughs, such as The Outlaw of Torn. None of them were worth much, since they are all sans dust jackets. I eventually read all of both the Martian and Tarzan series (unfortunately, not first editions). I still have all of them.

Where do you find a Martian chess set on Earth? Did you make your own?

I've never heard of The Champions. I'll definitely keep an eye out for it, though.

With the help of a friend, we made the extended board and used salt and pepper shakers for the extra pieces required. It was a faster game to play than standard Earth chess. I liked it because Eric was usually superior at chess, while I could regulary smite him soundly at Jetan. Something about my use of the simple Panthan threw him off every time. Good times...

Anyway, well met, John Carter...it's good to have you around.
