These places get destroyed awful fast by you rowdy people... tongue.gif

QUOTE(minque)
This is meant to be a place where you can talk about anything without having to stay on topic. Feel free to ask questions, to talk about the things in your life you like to share with your fellow-members. Or just step inside for a while, have a coffe and a good chat!
You may feel free to post whatever you like as long as it is within the rules of the forum.
But if the conversation degrades to spam, you will be treated as though you are spamming anywhere else on the forum. This is a thread where you can relax and talk about personal things, but it is not to be used as an excuse to make pointless posts.
Please help to keep this alive and well and a place where we can meet and share.
Enjoy your stay here!!!


QUOTE(Alexander)
We had intended the coffee shop to be a nice place where people could talk about their daily activities and such, kinda like the Lurkers Lair on the Official Forums.
It didn't quite turn out that way though, people have been taking advantage of their freedoms in here, there has been a lot of spamming and even some flaming. We will not tolerate that any longer.
So unfortunately we've had to decide to increase the rules for this thread. Of course the normal forum rules still apply, but we'll elaborate here.:
1. No spamming.
We consider double posting and posting posts with only a few words to be spam. If you do that your post will be deleter or moved, do it too often and you might receive a warning for it.
We also consider chit-chat spam. This forum has a special chat channel for chatting, you're welcome to go there, and chat with other members or with the staff as we're always there, doing it in here is not allowed.
The address to that chatroom is:
W4O chat
And for assistence to use a chat like this, I recommend looking over this thread:
http://chorrol.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=248
Or contacting one of the Administrators.
2. No discussion of accounts or warnings.
There shall be no more discussion about members, about accounts, about how many warnings you've gotten or anything like that.
3. No trolling.
No posting of random nonsense, no posting of irrelevant things, no posting the same thing over and over just to get it noticed, no swearing or flaming.
4. No religion or politics.
No discussion about religion or politics is to be had in these threads. If you want to discuss religion or politics, please do make another thread, or if another such thread already exists, please post in it.
If you have a question about the rules of the forums, feel free to ask it to either a Global Moderator or an Administrator.
If you're unsure if something is fit to post here, it might be. Again best to ask a Global Moderator or Administrator.
If you're wondering how we think a Lair or the Coffee Shop should look like, what we do allow, then I recommend taking a look at the Lurkers Lair at the Official Forums.

hehe, Treydog is working on the last part as we speak, once it's done and corrected and all, and I've put the parts together (shouldn't take more then hour) I'll start posting. So bare with me for a little while longer if you will smile.gif

On another note though, I've finishing the story that will come after this one, and it's.. different to say the least. I hope it will be enjoyable in itself but it's quite different from the previous two. Can't say too much though, wouldn't want to spoil anything smile.gif

I'm loving the light here. It's so dark in the middle of the winter I never see the sun but its light as walk to uni now and normally light when I leave again. I like light, it makes the cold seem ok.

Sorry for double posting but I just want you all to know that early this morning there was a fatal accident at my power plant.
A man aged 60 was using a hydraulic tool, when suddenly a part of it came loose and hit the man in his chest. The impact was so big that he flew away against a railing anf fell over it and down several meters. In the fall his head was injured.

The man is dead, the police is investigating.....we'll yet have to see what the actual cause of death was.

I'm telling this so you know because I might not be online so much this coming week!

Did you actually see the accident minque? sounds horrific :S...

What hydraulic tool was it and how big was the part if it made him fly back?

No I did not see the accident, just pics of where it happened, there was blood, much blood. And the police hasn't completed their invest, and neither is the authopsy done yet, so we don't actually know very much. His colleagues are devastated and they were not working today... The whole plant is kinda shocked, you know we sort of have a sad history it's like this:

in 1979 there was an accident at unit 1, a man fell down in the cavity under the reactor, and died instantly

in 1989 there was an accident at unit 2, a man got a steel plate in his head falling from 15 metres, it cut off a third of his head, he died of course!

in 1999 there was another accident at unit 2, an electrician was about to show a younger colleague their task and pointed at an electrical strip which wasn't supposed to have any current...well it contained 20 000 volts, so there was an arch of electricity from the strip to the man's hand...he was fried immediately

So you see it's kinda spooky.... blink.gif

Jeez, well I hope you work at Unit 3 (if there is one). At least there hasn't been any fatal accidents there.

I've heard some good things about Moab, never been there myself though but I am sure I'll get there someday. I live near-ish there now, in Durango, Colorado.

Yeah, Moab's pretty nice. I've been there a couple of times before, and if I get the job (I should here something on or around Wednesday) I'd be working all over the northern Colorado plateau--between Zion National Park and Black Canyon of the Gunnison.

Only been to Durango once, but I seem to recall it being pretty nice. Pretty country around there.

Dang, that was a lot of catching up on lost time. *deep breath*
Hello everyone, it feels like forever since I've been here.

@ Minque, that's pretty disturbing. At least all the hapless victims have been men, hopefully you're excempt. wink.gif

I wish I could speak with some kind of experience on being unemployed, but I haven't even started my 1st job yet. I'll pray for you all (Ibis, Canis, and everyone not on this page). As for the weather...... last week it poured for three days straight. Rain isn't so bad, but I just don't like being in it.
