Hey, everyone-

[Joshua Smith]

Thanks a lot for the dive last night! I, for one, had a blast. It was great to meet all of you, and I really appreciate everyone's friendly, helpfull attitude. (Except for Maverick. What's the deal with him? He buy his way in, or what? Oh, well, it's not important, there's one in every crowd, I guess.)

[Tangfish]

Nice to meet you too Josh, we're happy to have you aboard

Yeah, that Maverick guy can be kind of a dick at times, but we all tolerate him because he's opening a new shop and we all want to get our tailpipes polished.

I don't know if you are joking or what but I think you're lucky to have been been accepted into a group of good knowledge and fun divers, So watch what you say about anyone in this group, Including me. We are all friends and you are new so watch it.

Dude! I was kidding! I am lucky to have met you guys! Very sorry to have offended you.

[Joshua Smith]

Yeah, no, I mean, I was sincere in saying how happy I was to meet all you guys, I should watch my mouth- I'm a long time member of several other forums where trash-talking is the rule of the day, and I shouldn't have just dug right in, I guess, because I'm new, but don't take it seriously, BJ- lemme buy you a beer to make up for it!

[Maverick]

No problem Josh, I figured you were joking, and trash talking is ok, just make a point to put a smiley face or someething, so everyone knows your kidding. I have Doug read it before I wrote back to you, and he also got the impreession that you were serious, so its cool. No hard feelings
:wav:
thanks Mav.

[Tangfish]

dude, I totally got that he was kidding! I added to the joke myself. Someone is being oversensitive!

:rr:

[Joshua Smith]

I'll try to pay more attention to my smileys when I'm trash-talking

[Tangfish]

Nailer did this to BJ , then BJ started and then... but Nailer was only kidding and then said sorry and and now you guys can :occasion5:

[Maverick]

Yeah I know I was over sensitive but, even Doug agreed with me it, seem ed to be serious but its cool, I am thick skinned. Plus I was just putting Nailer in check :naka:

[sparky]

BJ, did you ever claim that beer? I hope you did.

[DiverDown]

Must have been the "AIR" he was diving back then.....

[Pez7378]

I love this. Thanks for reminding us what the board "USED" to be like. This was the kind of banter I remember when I first started reading.

So lighten up BJ. After all, you're getting MARRIED!
