Total time logged into ACD statistics.

[elasticband]

Most forums i have been a member of provide a statistic which shows the total time logged into the forum.

I would love to compare the majority of members forum time logged in vs actual time spent in Amsterdam.

maybe ACD is more popular than Amsterdam itself.....

Do you have an actual question (FAQ) or are you just thinking out loud?

ACD is more popular than A'dam because it's way more accessible than boarding a plane, and for some of us, flying 4000+ air miles. Aside from a webcam with Smell-o-Vision, it may be the closest you can get online to a passel of like-minded smokers.

ACD is about more than Amsterdam.

My opinion, natuurlijk.

Thinking out loud based on a reply I made to one of your quoted posts in another topic, no big deal. It was more a question for admin regarding this statistical revelation I had about this wonderful hang out place.

[Nimrod]

...this wonderful hang out place.

Used to be. Really. Lively as hell with lots of community. It's all there, in the really old threads.

You're having a bad day mate

Not really, bought lots of bud yesterday with a visiting friend. Now getting high and playing civ 2 before the football tonight. Quite a relaxing day. just throwing around some friendly banter of course.

I'm always leaving the computer on logged into ACD. I'll come back 4 days later and be like damn. ACD is pretty quiet these days but it remains to be a place where people who connected in the Dam stay loosely in touch until the next time they run into one another or even shock/horror arrange meet ups.
While that is going on we all stay in touch with the dam because of the fine ACD'ers who live there and contribute useful info to the forum as opposed to those who become jaded old pricks. They join Channels then come and troll here on ACD.

Apart from the 4 days logged on, I'm right on with all those sentiments so eloquently expressed Mr treetop.

Amsterdam is a pretty unique city so it's got a unique fan club and here some of us are. So we talk the same old talk because thats what "fans" do and newbies come along and, aided (mostly) by the ACD and it's helpful forums enjoy the experiences and thrills that some of us heritage members vaguely recall, and I know a lot of us enjoy helping and sharing.

Boring as fuck really aint it?

Do not make the mistake of sharing a 4-20 holiday flat with a self-professed, multiple-personality forum member who ends up going schizoid halfweg thru the stay. My perceived transgression(s) (mine gawd, which one did I piss off?) shall never be known, since said member(s) chooses to ignore me thru PM and e-mail.

Except however, in the curious case of my birthday thread, which was started by one of these crafty members, ostensibly to show a much-different face to the internet public.
Uncle Janus, indeed.

Around these midwestern states, jokingly referred to as Aunt Nancy.
Maybe it should be Aunt Sybil.

Anyhow kids, I digress.
The moral of this story is to keep your eyes open and see things for what they really are, and even what they themselves claim to be.

Happy cohabitating.

So, you really want to do this? Glutton for punishment you are...
You want to explain to the masses your reasons for forcing open the door to my room after midnight (you were drunk), while I was asleep, and giving me shit about things that were none of your business? That alone gets you a beat down in many corners of the world... Oh right, you didn't want to mention that... too bad. Here's some more...
You had a sinus infection, wtf did you want me to do, be your Aunt Nancy and hold your hand? The best I could do for you, I did... recommend contacting locals who have the INSTITUTIONAL knowledge (remember be saying that to you? yup, i did...) about apothecaries, clinics, and hospitals.
I agreed to share expenses of renting an apartment, not be your surrogate AUNT NANCY.
Now I know why the others balked at sharing an apartment with you... I should have picked up on the hint when I was warned and that I'd find out soon enough, which I eventually did. Shame on me...
I did my thing while in Amsterdam... and THAT bothered you?
Do yourself a HUGE service and be up front with any perspective room mates... that they need to be at your disposal 24hrs a day... talk about being an Aunt Nancy... project much?
Lastly, I'm not sure what fired you up, but you should let this go and move on... it's been nearly a year.
I was the one that was wronged... read above, plus I've got more if anyone is interested.
Best I can do for you, again, is this advice - stop stirring up shit that you caused in the first place.

Sad...

Oh I didn't say I belive it, I just know you as that guy, truth or not it's documented.




If you don't like paper or tobacco, then yes i would advice against smoking mine and MANY other people's, which might mean I am not the only person you know as guy who's joints you should not smoke?

Part II of the Reckoning...
Long before 4/20/13, I tested the waters with floating an idea of riding on bicycles around the city, specifically going to all of the major parks. Initially there was some interest, but no takers. I decided BEFORE arriving that I wouldn't be pursuing the idea, and good thing seeing how shitty the weather was most of the time. On the chat, I was taking the piss with Matty223 about going on a bike tour, KNOWING FULL WELL THAT HE CAN'T RIDE DUE TO HIS NECK INJURY. Seems our resident Nimrod didn't know this, at least not until I told him so during his after midnight drunken tirade. THERE WAS NO EVENT PLANNED.
Moving on to the next scene...
On the 23rd, I decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather and spend some time in Ijmuiden, the mouth of the Ij River. THIS WAS NOT A PLANNED EVENT, just me deciding that morning to go to the beach, ALONE. Again, our resident Nimrod took this as an insult, seems his feeling were hurt because I didn't invite him to come along.

Want to know more?
Take the red pill and you will continue to believe his paranoid delusional bullshit...
Take the blue pill and I'll expose it for all to see...

What not to do in Amsterdam...
Hopefully to not chose the wrong person to share expenses.
After this, I doubt anyone would want to share an apartment with Nimrod...
... and for those who do, you've been fairly warned. Also, good luck at being treated as his long lost Aunt Nancy from the mid west of his delusions.

Lastly, to our resident Nimrod...
Why, after nearly a year of me being silent about the bullshit that you started during 4/20, are you starting this shit storm?
Did I forget to mention some of the not so pleasant opinions you have towards certain people? No, well perhaps I should share them?
You want a shit storm... I'll give you a hurricane of shit...
How enjoyable do you think your future visits to Amsterdam will be? Want to wager that they won't be as pleasant as you hoped?
...and I don't have to do anything because you've already done enough, it's called self inflicted.

In your own words...
The moral of this story is to keep your eyes open and see things for what they really are, and even what they themselves claim to be.

Now perhaps we all can move on...
Next...

Are you not the Australian that has been to Amsterdam once for a couple of weeks but continues to hang out on a Amsterdam coffeeshop forum 3 or 4 years later? or are you someone else?
