It is in the Off-Topic section.
Yes, I do read replies.

Okay, maybe you don't understand/see that this section is NOT Off-Topic. It is Debate & Discuss. Follow the arrows and you'll see where you are:
FC Community > Discussion Boards > Off-Topic > Debate & Discuss > Yours

*All you need to do is look at the top of the thread, that's where I copied/pasted your 'location' from.*

I find it extremely frustrating to see you continuing to do this and especially when it is NOT a debateable/discussable topic and this is NOT [primarily] a place to keep slamming down the biblical quotations. There are many, many religious sites out there calling your name....and your passages'.

I have actually started hallucinating about marieelissa and her daily deluge of random topics coming back....help!

Support / Re: Not getting credit for GreenDot.

I did this offer about a week and a half ago, and received my card today in the mail--but still no credit. Do I have to actually use it in order to receive credit?

I just looked at this, don't want it for myself, but was curious. I am wondering if the activation call, from one of the phone #'s you were required to give when signing up, is what will also 'activate' your credit for the offer? This is often like having to click a confirmation e-mail for offers here, like ULuvCeCe mentioned. That is the one thing that jumped out at me and you didn't say whether you HAD made the 'card activation' phone call - if you did, then I would definitely send in a ticket to Support. Good luck!

Off-Topic / Re: Have anyone heard about Magic Jack device?

« on: June 02, 2012, 08:36:49 am »Message ID: 546679

They were trying to keep there number but I guess there are some steps to take to do that and they missed those steps.

sak4kat: Did they realize there is an additional fee of $19.95 if you want to keep your existing number? It might be too late to tell them/too late for them to change it back, but thought I would add this info.
A huge drawback, for me anyway, is if you lose power, you have NO phone. I need to be accesible 24/7 to my hospital and my patients, so I will most likely never do away with my landline. I need it [landline] also when I  have no chance to keep my cellphone charged/working and many people do NOT realize that cell towers, signals can also be screwed in a power outage. The magicJack Plus sounds better than the original, but it isn't worth the risk for me.

FusionCash / Re: Virus heads up

« on: June 01, 2012, 08:46:43 am »Message ID: 546059

Just wanted to let yall know that my computer totally crashed due to Trojan and several viruses.  Took 5 hours on the phone with Dell and over $200 to get it fixed.  I very seldom ever go to sites other than those thru FusionCash so feel like I must have picked this stuff up at one of the sponser's sites after we get redirected to another site.  Just FYI

Just to let EVERYONE know that Microsoft has the free, YES, free download and it works just as good as the virus protection I was paying for every year. Microsoft Security Essentials down load off of Microsoft website  http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id= copy this and it will take you to the right place.

It is important to keep in mind that MSEssentials is limited to just 3 operating systems: Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP. You must also have genuine Windows installed on your PC meaning your computer came with Windows based operation factory installed vs anyone who changed over to it using a method other than buying the real Windows software. Not having the correct parameters and trying to install MSE can result in a huge mess if you don't know what you're doing. Just a 'heads up' I wanted to add.

I really can't know, at this point in time, if I will even be home or working (or sleeping my very odd hours) when this happens. I have never been able to make one, but it's worth a try again in order to experience the 'mania mayhem'.

Maybe I just need some of that zenlike patience from falcon9.....or a wave of your magic wand over my account, falcon.

Suggestions / Re: Expired Offers

@gizmo42:
Why are you bringing up a suggestion that has already been hashed, rehashed, and 'over' hashed again? You have certainly been here long enough to have seen other people's complaints about this and if you haven't seen them, you should realize this would cause major headaches for FC and [to some extent] it's advertisers. You are asking for FC to redo it's entire accounting and crediting system just to make it easier for the few who cannot meet the cashout 'deadline'. It's NOT going to happen.....

Uh,this is a suggestion forum.The guy is making a simple suggestion (one I'm inclined to agree with).I love the way whenever a suggestion is made,some folks will act like "sit down and shaddup!Be thankful that FC is giving you anything!" Without us,FC would make nothing.

Why was it necessary for you to come in here and comment when gizmo42 already acknowledged what I said to him and he also stated he understood why I said it?

The guy is making a simple suggestion

Yeah, no sh*t, Sherlock, brilliant deduction there. Did you also notice I said there are already 6 pages of topics on this 'suggestion'?! Once again, read only what you want, not all the replies with additional info, and then make an uninformed comment. Funny you complained about being followed around on the Forum just to be harassed. What do many of your posts consist of and who are YOU following around?

« on: May 28, 2012, 08:48:57 am »Message ID: 544028

If you already have the picture, you can do this very easily.
1- Right click anywhere in the pic
2- In the 'box' that comes up, go to the Properties tab
3- Copy the address (URL)
4- Using the 3rd icon here/'blue ball', second row under B I U, click on it - says "Insert Hyperlink"
5- You will see the bracketed "url" and you just need to paste the address (URL) that you copied from the "Properties"...steps 1-3
6- After you hit the "Post" button, voila!, your pic is there

Off-Topic / Re: Getting rid of pesky teenagers

« on: May 28, 2012, 07:42:26 am »Message ID: 544010

We are not going to leave our home.

It is HER home, you moved into it. It is also her son's and her daughter's home and was [probably] long before you showed up in their lives.

We are not the ones that should have to leave.

And that is because you had NO idea she had kids when you started seeing her, right? I honestly don't know what this statement has to do with it, other than making you sound extremely immature...."I was playing with that toy first and you're not gonna get it from me!" You have already said she allows them to walk on her and it doesn't sound like you have any influence, period. If you and your fiancee are on solid ground, the question of who goes and who stays is rhetorical - or should be.

And it's not just the two of us we have a baby. We dont have a lot of money and have nowhere else to go.

Then having a baby was not the best decision, was it? I'm betting her son and daughter think she is a fool for having a child with you when you are so close in age to them. You'll have to find a way to make more money, you already said you failed one child you had. Work together at finding some options for housing yourselves elsewhere or you will fail this second child of your's too.

This whole thing comes down to one point, IMO. You are too close in age to her kids, they will never look up to you, and you sound very jealous because you aren't 'allowed' to sponge along with them and you're not getting all the attention. Any woman who is given an ultimatum of, "It's either ME or YOUR kids" and she chooses the man is NOT a woman or mother I want to know. It doesn't matter how old or how irresponsible [she has allowed them to be], they are her kids until they take their last breaths. Mine our grown, have their own lives, but would never be told they could not come home if something bad happened. They would also not be told they couldn't move back because I 'had a new man' (would never be one that much younger like you are; I could never handle dealing with all the crap that brings) and HE didn't want them here. Give that ultimatum to me re my sons? I'll make sure the door hits you in the a** on your way out....

Gee, falcon, I just thought about this. Isn't it strange that we got credited and JJohnnie didn't? Ya' think it might be due to his angering 'The Man Upstairs' by falsely 'ignoring' you and/or posting calling out threads? Never mind, I know it is! I have heard the phrase, "God doesn't like ugly." waaay too many times and also that He sees/knows everything, including what is written in the Forums here. So score a few cents for the atheists, eh? (I DO want to know why I didn't get as many vids as you did...sigh. Maybe I need to become better at being badder?)

what place in the united states is the best place to live in the states for a family?

That is an impossible to answer question, since every person has different criteria for what place is 'best'. Someone mentioned a rural area with no industrial pollution and I would agree that scenario is great, but NOT so great if you have kids which it sounds like you do since you wrote 'family'. The drawback to rural places is the necessity of being 'forced' into driving kids to almost every place they want to go. I don't know many preteens/teenagers who would be thrilled at the thought of being stuck in the boonies during free time. On the other hand, small kids thrive when they have the option of exploring new places/new things - creeks, rivers, woods, fields and all the really cool creatures that live there. I have been down that road myself and all was beyond great until my boys got older, Mom and Dad were no longer enough distraction (or cool enough ), but the fairer sex roaming the mall 35 miles away was 'enough'!
I say sit down with your family, pick a number of places you are interested in, and then make a list of pros and cons for each place. Just keep in mind how things will be different as your family gets older.

Regarding "crotch salute"....There are many many pictures of this taken by the media at various events. In short, during playing of national anthem,  or pledge of alliegence, surrounded by persons either saluting the flag, or with hands on hearts, there he stands with hands folded over his crotch, thus the term "crotch salute" You asked for a picture, here is one of many.....

http://media.photobucket.com/image/obama%20crotch%20salute/Renegade_in_TN/crotchsalute.jpg?o=1

And you just might want to check before parroting statements that are false and showing photos taken out of context. I am NO supporter of Obama, but I will defend him on this one. That photo is from the wreath laying ceremony and was taken just as he walked onto the stage while "Hail To the Chief" was playing. His hands are exactly where they are supposed to be according to ceremonial protocol. IF he HAD saluted, he would have been saluting himself....which is both foolish and highly inappropriate.
Any of you can check this out because the truth re the 'situation' (not just repeats of the same photo) is also in many places.
