    Dear Jenee,

    So do I. I simply ignore it all. Period. I don't let it bother me, I don't feel any need to respond, and I especially don't try any "one-up-manship" by thinking that posting insults will somehow cause that poster to stop. It will only make it worse.

    Just ignoring it works. Always. As it was said in the film Princess Diaries, "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent." The same goes for anyone making you feel unhappy. If you don't play the game, no one has any power over you, period.

    Try it. You'll like it. :techman:

    Thanks. I'll try it. But.... just for clarification, no one is making me feel inferior. I just dislike people misrepresenting me. I fucking hate liars.

    Did @Asyncritus just quote The Princess Diaries? :wtf:

    This is easily becoming one of the greatest threads in WF history!

    I'm game. There are enough other posters here to challenge her.

    One final word, though: Her fascination with KIRK1ADM is intriguing, considering he dogged her for months for writing "entomology" when she meant "etymology." The double irony is that this was a guy who didn't know the difference between "then" and "than."

    Nobody does. But there is no internet rule that says you have to respond when they do. If you try correcting a misunderstanding and that doesn't work, just drop it. Period. End of story.

    And in case you're new to Wordforge, posters misrepresenting other posters happens all the time...

    The Xenforo software is such that it fully erases any trace of an ignored user. Garamet has been tagging @Ancalagon for over seven years, commenting and replying to get a ride out of him and he sees none of it.

    I didn't see any of your tags or reps for the couple of months I placed you on ignore, either.

    If y'all like the drama, just own up to it, but there's a solution in plain sight if you really want it. :shrug:

    There is also just not responding which I presently do to @garamet . This way you don't have to worry about why people are talking to themselves, and sayin weird non sequiturs.Once you realize someone is worthless it is easy to drop them.

    As an aside, ain't it odd how clarinet name just...skips over the tenor clarinet? Like how saxes have one for every voice in a choir, but somehow we just said "welp, this is bass clarinet, and you get two types of Contrabass" but no tenor or baritone. :shrug:

    Yup. If I had a time machine and my way, clarinet naming would go:
    Ab Sopranino - Piccolo
    Eb, D - Soprano
    C - Mezzo
    Bb, A (Basset) - Alto
    G (Turkish) - Contralto
    F (Basset Horn) - Counter Tenor
    Eb Alto - Tenor
    Bb Bass - Baritone
    Eb Contra Alto - Bass
    Bb Contrabass - no change
    and they'd all go down to low C :bailey:

    Can we also discuss how fucking annoying it is we cannot change the pitch of our voice to be higher? I totally hate being a base. It would be so fucking awesome if I could just get an alto larynx so I could chirp. It was what dropped me out of chorus and singing. I love doing it, but it ends up being just another reminder of what this body is and has developed into.

    They need to come out with an invention like in I My Me Strawberry eggs where you can wear some sort of choker that makes your voice resonate and go up like a woman's.

    You can't shit and practice your alto clarinet at the same time? It's not it's a tuba or grand piano. And you call yourself a professional. :brood:
