OK, I am an idiot. Where do I go to read about things such as: how do I set up a ping?

[Billthedrill]

Just who is this guy “All” that keeps getting pinged...

"All" was Jim Thompson's original user name. We don't mess with Jim Thompson.

[Judith Anne]

My absolutely favorite misspelling of all time is “epople.”

Honestly, I LOL every time I say it.

[count-your-change]

I don’t know about setting up a ping but i can sell you a used one at a very reasonable price. All the strings are good and the asphalt is in good shape though you will have to supply your own carp.

Have fun....

but what I have not figured out is how to arrange to be pinged for each new Amy's List post/comment.

If you want to be included on a certain ping list....simply comment or FRmail the person that asks if you want on their ping list...Sometimes they won't ask, but most times they will post a comment like:

Amy's List Ping....please let me know if you want on the list.

Ping lists are lists kept by other freepers and they will ping you with most of the stories that show up on here which relate to that topic.

[wizard1961]

“Do you want on Amy’s opening ping? I pinged you to my post today.”

Yes I do, and Yes you did. This is what started my morning adventure!

Please add me to the ping list.

[MEG33]

I got a lecture because I did not leave a space after a comma.
LOL

[jellybean]

Please add me to the ping list.

Eggcellent! Perfect FReeper etiquette.

[philman_36]

arrange to be pinged for each new Amy's List post/comment.
Paging Amy. Please pick up the white courtesy phone.
A ping list request in the completely wrong location.

But... is there a users guide?
Yes, and you're experiencing it.

[wagglebee]

Alright I won’t blame the noob.

I have a feeling that xsmommy is mad at me, I guess she didn’t think being called an “auxiliary harpy” was all that funny.

[wizard1961]

“suggested yesterday”

I was not going to throw you under the bus... but yes, I am glad I took your advice. Thanks!

Has anyone called him a troll yet? No?

TROLL!

Ah, so the grammer police have already written you a warning, LOL! I forgot to tell you that certain words are ok to misspell, like hugh and series. And watch out for cheese eating mooses that can bite your sister. Those bites can be nasti....and you'll likely get your beeber stuned a few times here on FR.

[wizard1961]

“Do you plan to start a new thread every time you have a question? “

I’ll keep my agreement to be civil, but I have to ask: did you have a point besides the attitude? If I’ve violated a convention just point it out & we can go from there.

[MEG33]

Will do.

[Constitution Day]

Ha! I love that.

Sorry, MEG33. I meant to direct that response to wiz.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Once you get to know a few old timers you can always FReepmail them questions, thus avoiding the need to post a new thread.

You could ask me, but I won’t guarantee a true answer.

[MEG33]

I celebrated my 7th anniversary here yesterday...LOL
