Righto, the next one is here. A minor note from a certain person first:

[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://forums.waiting4oblivion.com/viewtopic.php?t=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. this includes posts about post count, ranks or any such things.

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.

On a side note, if you're the one making the new shop, then please include these rules in the first post.

On behalf of the Wating4Oblivion Administrators and Global Moderators,

~ Alexander ~

And defnintely never refer to Ireland as part of the UK. I get very annoyed when people do that, as do most Irish people who live in the Republic

Ah! I think that must be it. I was trying to make sure I knew all the capitals of the scandinavian countries after those posts earlier. Am I right with this?

Denmark -> Copenhagen
Norway -> Oslo
Finland -> Helsinki
Sweden -> Stockholm

I have no idea, so I'll guess Macedon. If in doubt, give the country's name, or a name similar to the country's name tongue.gif I'm trying to think of countries that works for, and the only one I can remember is Brazil (and possibly Luxembourg)

Where is Macedonia anyway? For some reason the name makes me think of Alexander the Great, was he from Macedonia?

I believe Macedonia is a country near Crete. My great grandfather had four sons that were all from Crete but had different passports to fish in different countries. It took us decades to figure out where they were all from. First we thought Venice, then Greece, then Macedonia and then we figured out he was from Crete.

Nope, don't really care for "Alexander the Great" .

Didn't bother to see the movie.
