Offensive but honest!!
|
To the many of you who are offended by my remarks... I say good! But I am honest.
How many times have people complained about their inability to upload or download - millions of times!!! Those occurrences will always be with us- to whine!!!! But what can we expect from a member who has whine ( vine) in her name.
Then there is the teacher who is dumber that her pupils!!! You all were thinking it! Strangely no one responded to her plea UNTIL I said something!!! Amazing! Now she just might get her key.... So sweetie thank me!!!
Any dear Cunliffee- your words
Btw, who is the mythical cauffeepot? He/she was before my time, but apparently was witty, fun, edgy... I �m intrigued by this ex-member.
Imagine that!!! You might have fooled the others with look at the similarity in your name. If I were to bet you are one and the same.... Intrigued???? I bet you are.
And finally Stuart- your link was virtually ignored before I drew attention to it. I thought about you checking every five minutes for the many tanks! Thank me baby! Or your post would have left the forum without a single notice. Yeah I might be offensive but I am at least i am HONEST!!! |

Are you entirely honest? I bet this is your empty fake account just for posting :) The site is not much use for the teachers with zero contributions:) They have nothing to gain here, I agree:) |

Saturday Night Live, I suppose.
The meaning of this post I don �t understand. Saying "no" for no reason? Offending people because we have nothing better to do?
Need to be the star for a minute?
Let �s define "honesty".

Why not try to download a file of yours? Wouldn �t it be more constructive than being a viper �s tongue?

Honesty... well I wouldn �t call what you write being honest... In France we have a saying "turn your tongue 7 times in your mouth before speaking" maybe you should remember that... This website is great because it is a sharing website: we share our worksheets, we share our ideas, our opinions... but is insulting and attacking people a good thing to share? when a kid gives you his homework, do you say "you �re so stupid, it was full of mistakes" or do you say "good but be careful with your spelling..."? Sometimes i �ve been harsh, telling people they shouldn �t advertise their work on the forum, or complaining about a worksheet full of mistakes, but when I am I try also to be positive: to explain why it �s not appropriate to advertise one �s worksheets - something that Stuart didn �t do by the way... - or pointing out mistakes in a worksheet so that the teacher knows what was wrong (I received a few PMs pointing out mistakes or typos in my worksheets and I �ve always been grateful for the help, we �re only humans and we CAN �T know everything!). And when members "complain" that the system is not working they �re not saying this website is crap, they �re usually want to know if the problem only occurred on their computer - and usually Victor is grateful when we spot a problem, because he can �t be everywhere... But I guess you �re too narrow-minded to see that... oups sorry for being honest...

Oh my god, I �m outed! Cauffeepot/cunliffee. Yes, one and the same!!! 
Many tanks,  @mydesk, I was wondering how to let people know!
Dear genuine members, let �s enjoy the contributions from this crackpot @mydesk, she�s got some style, as long as she knows when to stop. God knows, I could do with a bit of light relief right now.

edit: Still not a single ws or ppt from you though, sweetie? Come on, let�s see what you can offer us.

I �m more offended by the fact that you might be an educator than your remarks!
Seriously, if the only way you can contribute to this website is by insulting people, you can go. We don �t need you.

The best way to deal with such internet trolls is to just ignore them. Attention is all they ask for, don �t give it. |
