+Ryder3 & Better Half Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 < ----- This should so be a coin. Consider your idea STOLEN!LOL!! By all means please do it. I'd get some for sure. Problem would be getting permission to use the image I's suspect. Oh,I just posted in jest! Quote Link to comment
+ArtieD Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 (edited) Well two names have already been mentioned at the start of this thread. I found there to be nothing to laugh about the way [bLEEP] was hounded. I live on the other side of the world, and he made caching more fun for me. He appeared to be deeply upset by the way he was treated on here. I dont find that funny. Oh, please...don't get me started about you know who...he brought all get got upon himself. Now, I would never name names on a geocoin, but using you know who's example was perfectly apropos in this case. BTW there is no stick up my ...., I just actually care about people. Why make this place ugly? If I'd seen this sort of thing early on I wouldn't have taken up the hobby. Show how much fun you can be in other ways rather than laughing at others?

+pghlooking Posted March 14, 2007 Author Share Posted March 14, 2007 I obviously was unaware of the term "GeoCide" and thought it to be very cruel and mean. I guess what you're saying in this coin idea is that "Drama Queen" Geocachers who leave the Geocaching forums permanently will get this coin? This coin is all in good fun and not meant to be mean-spirited? FSM has spoken as to the term and use in Geocaching. This thread not to debate the spiritness behind the coin. Please keep your posts on topic. I feel you are trying to purposely derail this threa in hopes of getting it locked. Quote Link to comment
+sillygirl & jrr Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 I find the idea for this coin very amusing. Let's keep things in perspective, it's not like geocide is usually permanent! I think this would be a coin that many of the "forum regulars" not just the coin people might be interested in. I hope if the coin gets made there will be a space where a geocaching name could be engraved. Those XLEs would need 2 blank spots separated by an "aka" of course. As for political correctness and gender issues, most of the drama queens I know are male. jrr Quote Link to comment
+Hula Bum Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 I am soooo in for at least 2! I love it, most relevant coin I've seen of late. Quote Link to comment

Please keep your posts on topic. I feel you are trying to purposely derail this threa in hopes of getting it locked. Don't take it personal, Pghlooking... I did take it personal, because of your response in my other thread. And by then creating this "Drama Queen" coin as a direct personal threat to me. You know I left last week and returned only this morning. You're getting your laughs in at my expense... and I'm not backing down. It's a very mean coin. Quote Link to comment
Flying Spaghetti Monster Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 One more thing to ALL - please go back and remove the names from all previous posts. Looking up the term gives the information needed, there is no need to refer to names (even of those who are no longer on the boards). Those that aren't done, will be done by me shortly when I get back online. NOTE TO FUTURE POSTERS: Please do NOT use ANY names as examples, it's not appropriate. Thank you. Quote Link to comment

Ok, look...I saw your meltdown, and then your return today... However, I think you are being a bit too sensitive, and maybe even a bit too full of yourself to assume this is all about you. Your departure was very un-dramatic...not worthy of a coin to commerate it. However, the term Geocide does bring a smile to my face, and I would be in for a few... Quote Link to comment
+pghlooking Posted March 14, 2007 Author Share Posted March 14, 2007 And by then creating this "Drama Queen" coin as a direct personal threat to me. PUHHHLEEZE!!! Don't flatter yourself or think my life is so consummed with you that I would actually go make a coin about you. You need a reality check. This term has been here for over 3 years. You haven't been here that long. Now can you stop trying to derail this thread. That is a violation of the guidelines I believe, but you could always check with a mods. Quote Link to comment

+Hula Bum Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 While the feminist side of me agrees with the horse lady.... I think "Drama Queen" is more fitting with a better ring, I've met many a man that can be one, so it's not necessarily a gender thing, stay with it! Quote Link to comment

Drama Queen it is on side "B". Nothing like being a little unPC in the to get the blood* going. *The reference to blood is purely symbolic and in no way is directly related to the actual thoughts behind this coin. I would also like to add no animals will be hurt in the making of this coin, at least intentionally. Quote Link to comment

One other comment..........does it have to a "drama queen?" Maybe you could be gender neutral or have both "drama queen" and "drama king" That's the feminist side of me speaking and/or = opportunity I hate being PC. Do we really have to? I mean since you asked so nicely I am sure I could be forced into it, but drama queen just has a ring to it. I vote NO to PC, now THAT'S lamer than a lampost micro! Quote Link to comment

That's the funniest thing I've heard all day! Sorry, BOT-how long til you've got some artwork? This will be done in due time, but within the time constraint of my real life. I have one project in the works right now and would feel like I was neglecting it if I were to start another before it was finished. that should be complete within the next few weeks, then it will be full steam ahead on this ship. I am going to use this thread to help with the inspirations of the coin of course. So keep the idea coming. should we have a space on the coin where people can have their name engraved if they want? Anyone know where we can find someone to model the crown for the Side"B" of the coin? Quote Link to comment

I tend to agree with your overall feelings towards such a coin idea. It's not something I am interested in either. Thing is, there is a certain element in any BBS forum, on any subject, and located anywhere online where participants in that particular forum leave with a big ta-da, stink, hoopla or whatever you want to call it. I've seen it over and over, long before geocaching even existed. Never have I enjoyed this kind of attention getting by the person leaving nor have I enjoyed watching the remaining members of said forum provoke and often times thoroughly live for the drama. Obviously the person leaving is upset and some people simply cannot help themselves but to take cheap shots at or make fun of the person exiting. When the only joy or satisfaction one can get is from attacking or making fun of others, then one's life is truely sad. I wouldn't purchase a coin dealing with this type of subject, so pass.
