  1. Poll about jewelry :)

    I'm making a new line of pendants but not sure which sized people usually prefer. I'm hoping to get votes from both men and women. Personally I prefer 2" size, but I know that is larger than usual... Thanks!
  2. Suggested interview: Trunk

    Little did he know, when he was setting up that section...
  3. Poll about jewelry :)

    I also polled my customers and 1-1.5" seems to be the favorite size for everyday wear. LOL about the crystal pendant and tennis (or was that from the other thread?) No pointy jewelry during active stuff . Actually no jewelry outside of clothing during anything active is best, even regular chains can cause problems. To bad about the crystal though! Fortunately I've never had jewelry bloopers .
  4. Poll about jewelry :)

    Sounds pretty awesome, thanks for sharing . Have you found any problems with 23K being to soft, as in any bending or getting marked up easily? Nice photos/design.
  5. mental fog

    The fog part of that I used to get too. It was allergies. It's gone now. It was for many years. Same with some others I have talked with. The other bits just sound like you have mellowed and are more neutral about life .
  6. Poll about jewelry :)

    Thanks to everyone who voted . Since I can really only do one size at a time, I'm thinking 1" for now.

  8. Poll about jewelry :)

    The Rider Waite one. Ohh, I didn't think of doing a few different decks. The more artistic ones would be cool. Fortunately I'm really good at copying sketches. I did work on drawing my own tarot deck years back as I had it in my mind one really should.. but the project was aborted after about halfway through the major arcana lol. Well to warn you, my prices are high, since I do everything custom one at a time. If something takes off though maybe make a batch...
  9. If this is "Way Off" Topic then...

    We need a horse stance forum.
  10. "Entrance" Noooooo!

    "The new member hazing area"
  11. Poll about jewelry :)

    Men would never wear a large shiny pendant, that would look bad (with current fashion trends lol), but an unpolished or darked pendant is OK depending. Some occultists like to show off their talismans!
  12. Poll about jewelry :)

    Some like this: http://thetaobums.com/topic/35483-jewelry/ And some etched into the metal. Doing a set of images from ancient Egypt and Mesepotamia for my next bunch. Just deciding on sizes now. Also doing some tarot cards, but those have to be a certain size to get the detail in (since I hand draw them into wax first).
  13. Poll about jewelry :)

    Actually I have found that men like to wear larger ones. Go figure. What is Mrs. GMP's vote?
  14. Real Compassion

    I like this guy! Er, the lack of I likes the lack of words of this lack of guy.. or something . So is he saying, it just happens randomly eventually one day?
  15. False accusations

    I would like to see proof about these accusations. I call bullshit. Also after I have been putting far to many hours in doing tech for nearly a year, and now this crap behind my back. I will not be returning to this site. I would like my entire PPF deleted please (would take me forever to do post by post) and to be voluntarily banned. And you guys think MPG is obsessed with Mo Pai, perhaps look in the mirror.
  16. False accusations

    Arg, no that one member had asked for all their posts on the forums to be removed, not just the PPF ones. Members have never gotten their regular forum posts removed for them ever. They have to go back and just put ... in them all instead if they really want. PPFs have been removed before. I had deleted 90% of mine by the time they had deleted it as I wasn't sure if they would do it/think I meant it. I'm convinced y'all just like to argue (not excluding myself from this, but really am trying to cut down )
  17. False accusations

    Some screenshots of this supposed "high level access" would be cool. Btw, you bums are extremely sweet/awesome . A very long break at the very least would be good. Being on a place where such theories fly around would not be good for me personally I don't think. It's been a great experience aside from that though.

  19. False accusations

    PS I'm only one member, the board will live .
  20. False accusations

    Er guess I better clarify... To me, that read as "there is a theory floating around the backroom that you may have given MPG and Dorian high level privileges (when you were tech)". (2nd theory being they hacked the forums; they don't have those skills). It's just that thelerner outted it when he was a bit angry yesterday. I could have read that wrong though, but I don't see any other way that last paragraph could be taken. So it's not that I'm pissed off at thelerner; it's that I don't feel comfortable being around a place where I volunteered for 9 months and they feel I'm capable of that sort of thing. I was upset at first, but then I remembered the #1 rule of the internet... don't take anything personally. It's all good, just a not so comfy around here anymore sort of thing. I wish all you guys well though. I also suggest the don't take anything personally reminder to everyone during debates . PS thanks for the PMs folks . Would be cool to keep in touch with people; send me your email or fb info (I know I requested to be banned, but if you guys could hold off on that for a few days that would be cool, I seem to be getting some PMs from folks who I have enjoyed talking with on here :>.
  21. This is how I feel if anyone,

    The person uploaded it to their own facebook account. It's not youtube or whatever.
  22. This is how I feel if anyone,

    Those are purposefully made to not embed. It is someone's own video that they posted on facebook.
  23. regrets

    But if you look at every single regret, if we had done things differently we would have been stuck in a situation which was not ideal for us. Also our lives would have taken a very very different path.
  24. Can meditation reduce the effects of ageing? (study)

    I think it's more like the further practices said meditation can lead one to (like qigong, or self introspection). Though the study they did didn't really have anything to do with meditation any more than it did to do with lounging about after work (to reduce stress).
  25. Can meditation reduce the effects of ageing? (study)

    The seniors around here climb mountains, run marathons and mountain bike! The ones who lawn bowl don't look any younger though, at least not locally...
