[edit] As far as I know ...

... that makes three: kels, me and thee. Quite possibly though there are hundreds of us - keeping quiet. Anyhow, welcome. Keep^{out of sight} 19:38, 11 August 2007 (CDT)

Sadly, there are always too few of us among the geeks. Be it policy geeks, science geeks, or the more traditional type. --Kels 19:57, 11 August 2007 (CDT)

Now Kels there knows stuff.

Me, I tend to hang around 'recent changes', lurking, or adding total rubbish to ACD. My main trouble is that I haven't got the patience (or the knowledge, or the debating skills, or the tolerance of rank stupidity) to argue with CREATIONISTS, FUNDAMENTALISTS, BIGOTS and/or SCIENCE DENIERS, but it's fun watching others do it. (And it's probably as good an education as Andy's classes) Keep^{out of sight} 20:16, 11 August 2007 (CDT)

PS: whatever you do, don't spray paint any goats or do anything else to one, round here that's a capital offence.Keep^{out of sight}

No spray painting goats, you may however "Paint" them with barbecue sauce, and slow roast them for a few hours...... _Eye See ^You 20:53, 11 August 2007 (CDT)

P.S. We value most anything, so feel free to jump in anytime, perhaps pwn a few pages.....

Thanks for the welcomes! I can't even figure out how to get a cool signature, let alone pwn anyone yet, lol. Total wikistyle newbie here, I can edit, but that's about it... CP Refugee 02:59, 12 August 2007 (CDT)

[edit] HOW TO:

Wiki Sig:

• in my preferences

• Check: Raw signatures (without automatic link)

• In Nickname: type in your wikirefs & wikisigs in this format:

[[User:CP_Refugee|Refugee]][[User_Talk:CP_Refugee|^{Alms for the love of ....}]]

Note:User name is case sensitive, replace spaces in user name with 'underscore' ( _ )

• save - done

Test it here (do a ~~~, use preview button & cancel ) It should look like this:

Refugee^{Alms for the love of ....}

OK? Keep ^{on wiping until it's clean »} 10:32, 12 August 2007 (CDT)

Ok! Let's give it a try.... testing... Refugee^{testing some words here ...}

Looks good - thanks SusanG! whew, that was hard work, lol. When I recover maybe I can try to figure out how to make it different colors or smaller or something. Refugee^{talk page}

[edit] Wikisig

This Page Needs More Goat

See Help:wikisig for an expanded and improved instruction. Keep^{»»» going «««}

Thanks! Very helpful. :-) Refugee^{talk page} 15:23, 23 August 2007 (CDT)

testing colors...? ? ? Refugee^{talk page} 17:01, 23 August 2007 (CDT)

I've put you a test are to play in:User_talk:CP_Refugee/test_area

Hi refugee, you can take credit for inspiring the RW help pages (the ones I made anyway). Or not. Susan^{talk to me} 20:40, 24 September 2007 (EDT)

LOL, Glad I inspired you - I need all the help I can get! hehehe... :-) Refugee^{talk page}

[edit] staying logged in

"I guess if I browse pages too long, it logs me out without me knowing" if when you log in, you check the box that says "remember me on this computer" you won't get logged out. hth, human^{be in} 22:09, 24 September 2007 (EDT)

'til you log in from a difffferent IP. Like when I cross to another gprs node Damnit. Susan^{talk to me} 22:15, 24 September 2007 (EDT)

I don't think I should because sometimes I log in from the school library computer lab, sometimes from the student union or math computer lab, sometimes at home, sometimes on my roommates computer. If I check "remember me", then anyone using one of the computers I used could log in as me...? I think so anyway! lol (or like you do -LOL!!!11!!1one!!! hehe) Refugee^{talk page} 22:19, 24 September 2007 (EDT)

I would advise: experiment. Use roomies 'puter, click "remember me". Then explicitly "log out" and see if it works, I think it does. If not, create a throwaway sock and log in as it afterwards. human^{be in} 01:22, 25 September 2007 (EDT)

and what's a gprs node? Refugee^{talk page}

I'm on a PDA using cellphone access. Susan^{talk to me} 22:28, 24 September 2007 (EDT)

[edit] Goat

Dude how do we upload pictures?

The Alien^{Don't tase me, Bro!!!} 23:20, 24 September 2007 (EDT)

Click upload file & follow instructions.Susan^{talk to me} 23:25, 24 September 2007 (EDT)

[edit] YOU ALTERED MY TALK PAGE!!! DIE!!!!!!!!!!!

Or not. :p

I don't mind your question at all. I stopped editing there because I get filled up with negative energy reading there (and here for that matter). Yes, that means I'm falling off the wagon the last couple days. As have many others, I've found it hard to look away.

No worries. :) Aziraphale 22:58, 8 November 2007 (EST) <-Irie, mon...

i understand completely. thanx for the explanation (ha, your section title scared me though... die! eeek! lol) Refugee^{talk page} 21:41, 14 November 2007 (EST)

[edit] where's my test area?

Ok, so where's that test area that Susan G kindly made for me a while back... I want to try to change my colors before I post again. I can't find it. :( (yeah I know, I am teh stupid one)

Try User:CP Refugee/sandbox. That's standard practice. --RA ^alvw 05:52, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

Thanx! But I just found it! :) and guess what, all I needed to do was read my own talk page, above, lol. the link was right up there, somewhere. I appreciate the help though!

Anytime  : ) --RA ^alvw 06:06, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

(btw, "I'm not as smart as most of you guys" Don't do that! Susan^purrrrr 07:54, 12 March 2008 (EDT))

Ok, I guess I'll change it then. :) Refugee^{talk page} 08:07, 12 March 2008 (EDT)

[edit] Everybody has to fight to be free

You don't have to live like that. ħuman 21:12, 13 June 2008 (EDT)

hmmm... Human, sometimes you make me laugh, sometimes you say deep stuff, but, I don't understand this comment at all. :( I can haz explained to me? -- Refugee^{talk page} 02:07, 14 June 2008 (EDT)

Dig up the lyrics to Tom Petty's seminal hit, "Refugee", and all will be revealed. And, um, thanks, I think. ħuman 02:55, 14 June 2008 (EDT)

Tom Petty, Refugee Lyrics:

We got somethin', we both know it, We don't talk too much about it. Ain't no real big secret all the same, somehow, we get around it.

It don't really matter to me, baby, You believe what you want to believe, You don't have to live like a refugee. (Don't have to live like a refugee)

Somewhere, somehow, Somebody must have kicked you around some. Tell me why you wanna lay there and revel in your abandon.

It don't make no difference to me, baby, Everybody's had to fight to be free, You see you don't have to live like a refugee. (Don't have to live like a refugee)

Baby, we ain't the first. I'm sure a lot of other lovers been burned. Right now this seems real to you, But it's one of those things you gotta feel to be true.

Somewhere, somehow, Somebody must have kicked you around some. Who knows? Maybe you were kidnapped, Tied up, taken away, and held for ransom.

It don't really matter to me, baby, Everybody's had to fight to be free, You see you don't have to live like a refugee.

[edit] Just saying "Hi"

Haven't seen you before, Refugee. Hi! RA ^alvw 22:16, 13 June 2008 (EDT)

hehe... yes you have.. look above, you talked to me in March. lol :p (I am forgettable..) -- Refugee^{talk page} 02:07, 14 June 2008 (EDT)

*Eyes bug out* I did?! Well, uh, that just means I've made a new friend twice!  : ) RA ^alvw 02:58, 14 June 2008 (EDT)

hugs to R.A! :) Refugee^{talk page} 05:45, 14 June 2008 (EDT)

[edit] where's that other site?

Does anyone have the link to that other site that is like this one, but smaller, it has almost the same name, but longer, and it has a cute little "walking brain" icon for it's symbol? I can 't think of the exact name, but it's got a lot of the same members as here and similar pages, but different and/or expanded info on some things. I had the link but haven't been there in awhile and can't find it again. I'm putting this question here because I'm not sure who else's talk page it could go on... so if anyone happens to read my talk page (doubtful, but it could happen) and know the site I'm referring to, could you please give me the link if you have it? Or email me, it's enabled through here... thanks! :-) Refugee^{talk page} 16:29, 26 June 2008 (EDT)

RationalWikiWiki? tmtoulouse ^frustrate 16:17, 26 June 2008 (EDT)

Yes! That's it, thanks! :-) I didn't know it has a 'scribblewiki' in the name too, so I couldn't find it. http://rationalwikiwiki.scribblewiki.com/Main_Page - Thanks again, Refugee^{talk page} 16:29, 26 June 2008 (EDT)

hah, it moved again: http://rationalwikiwiki.org/wiki/Main_Page :p that's a cute little walking brain... Refugee^{talk page} 13:06, 21 August 2008 (EDT)

Yes, we owe that to liberapedia. They use it at their article on us. ħuman 16:32, 21 August 2008 (EDT)

That reminds me, we haven't had a Headless Chicken Mode for months. NightFlare^{i haz a talk page.} 16:41, 21 August 2008 (EDT)

Indeed. We also haven't had any significant discussions about religion for months. Some might see a correlation between the two. --AKjeldsen^{Cum dissensie} 16:53, 21 August 2008 (EDT)

What about the PZ Myers cracker/not-cracker thing? NightFlare^{i haz a talk page.} 17:01, 21 August 2008 (EDT)

Oh yes. Forgot about that. Maybe we've just gotten old and boring, then. --AKjeldsen^{Cum dissensie} 17:32, 21 August 2008 (EDT)

[edit] I'm still around :-)

If anyone cares, I'm still around. :-) I just don't say much. :p Refugee^{talk page} 18:06, 12 December 2008 (EST)

Ha! I guess no one cares. :p lol. Refugee^{talk page} 15:25, 29 December 2008 (EST)

Hello. It looks like you were last active before I joined here, but welcome back all the same. wassaiLOId~ 15:32, 29 December 2008 (EST)

Actually it looks like there was some overlap. Thanks for your comment about the template I made earlier. wassaiLOId~ 15:34, 29 December 2008 (EST)

People care, Ms.Refugee, people care.... DogP 15:33, 29 December 2008 (EST)

I thought you didn't want to live like a refugee. --Kels 15:33, 29 December 2008 (EST)

Hi! CP Refugee. Welkum bak. Toast 15:38, 29 December 2008 (EST)

Yeah, it's an awesome template, wassaiLOId! Thanks Dog! Hi Kels! and I'd like some butter with my Toast Refugee^{talk page} 15:41, 29 December 2008 (EST)

Apparently not enough to get your gender right, eh?! Sry, kthxbye, DogP 15:43, 29 December 2008 (EST)

that's common, no problem, and your message was nice, thank you :-) Refugee^{talk page} 15:46, 29 December 2008 (EST)

Oh no, I'm not falling for that trick. I already embarrassed myself by welcoming you a second time (after forgetting that I had already done so). You won't be getting a third one out of me.  :P RA ^alvw 17:53, 30 December 2008 (EST)

Welcome to RationalWiki, Refugee! Please see our guide for newcomers and our community standards. If you are interested in contributing, please read what our articles are intended to be. Tell us how you found RationalWiki here!

Welcome Back to the Dollhouse! ħuman 20:15, 30 December 2008 (EST)

Hah - I was wondering if I'd be able to get you a third time RA! :-D Do I really have to read the rules again Human? and thanks to everyone who responded to my shameless begging for attention, lol. (how can I delete the intercom message now?) Refugee^{talk page} 21:57, 30 December 2008 (EST)

"Do I really have to read the rules again Human?" Of course not. Wait, what rules??? All we have are "guidelines"... ħuman 22:57, 30 December 2008 (EST)

In all seriousness, I should read the guidelines. I tend to jump right in without reading anything, then ask about things that are covered. Refugee^{talk page}

Just click on the "delete" button and it'll vanish - Pouff! Just like that. Toast 22:27, 30 December 2008 (EST)

hehe.. I meant how can I delete the intercom message entirely so no one has to read it, not just me! :D Refugee^{talk page}

Ah! don't think you can. It'd leave the messages open to random deletion by mischievous persons. Toast 13:49, 3 January 2009 (EST)

[edit] Hello!

Being sick is pretty lame. I wish you a speedy recovery! :D -- λινυσ^(☮) 23:32, 30 December 2008 (EST)

[edit] I am sorry

But by happenstance of fate, you have been kicked down the stairs and turned into a sysop. There is a guide to being a sysop somewhere, but I cannot seem to find it right now. I might get it to you sometime. ĴαʊΆʃÇä₰ No comment

I just posted about it on your talk page a minute ago, lol. I recall seeing the sysop guide somewhere, I'll look for it. Refugee^{talk page} 18:12, 6 February 2009 (EST)

It's here -- Nx ^talk 18:09, 6 February 2009 (EST)

OK, thank you! Refugee^{talk page} 18:12, 6 February 2009 (EST)

[edit] shuffling my userpage - nothing interesting here

On the contrary, everything you do is interesting *flirt* :-). Ace McWicked^{Disco Jesus} 20:25, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

hey, here you are, yay! I missed you! Been thinking of you babe :D and you are much more interesting, that's one of the things that attracted me to you, that, and... well, you know. :p - Refugee^{talk page} 20:35, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Yup here I am! Feeling rough as hell and mad because I had to use public transport this morning and I despise sitting in bus filled with sneezing virus carriers and filth bags. BAH! Time for a cull. Anyways, my thoughts turn to you sweet and all is well again. *Shameless flirt*. Ace McWicked^{Disco Jesus} 20:45, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

A bus full of sneezing people? Oh noes! Watch out for the swine flu... and how long will it be before you use the option to the left of your screen <<<<< that says "E-mail this user"? Or must I always make the first move... - Refugee^{talk page} 20:54, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

hehehehe you're forward arnt ya? I like that in a girl. I am at work currently and my email is linked to my work address hence I am wary of giving to much away......So..do I dare? Ace McWicked^{Disco Jesus} 20:56, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

No, why not just wait until you are at home and have more time and feel like writing, and you are right, it's better not to reveal too much to anonymous females over the internet - I could go all crazy stalker or something! hehe. :p But I do think that it doesn't show your IP addy when you click the link to email from RW? That's how it works on some other wikis I am pretty sure, but I've never emailed anyone from here. Maybe send a test message to yourself and find out? - Refugee^{talk page} 21:07, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Its not my IP I am thinking about. My work email address lists my full name, title, contact phone numbers etc. That give to much away....however.....in saying that I could just reply to your mail via email this user instead of my email address...hmmmmmm x Ace McWicked^{Disco Jesus} 21:14, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Or we can just continue to carry out our flirtations here, in public... kind of like a group date. LOL. :p - Refugee^{talk page} 21:18, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Like an orgy? Wooooo.....^{psssst you have mail} Ace McWicked^{Disco Jesus} 21:19, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
