BABELFISH origins of the tower of babel at U219076

No worries. It just confused me when my name come up after I had edited the entry. I got your correct number from your userspace anyway.

cool!

Must admit, it's caught me a few times (what with me being fairly new to this whole computer thing). Grr and aarg. A pox upon those who use the tag!
(this means I'd like to join)

OK, I'm in, good advertising

I actually discovered the tag recently and have an entire Entry based specifically on my desire to put it to use, and it's an evil Entry indeed - an "Interview" with yours truly! Mwahahahaha!!! A1067564

Why am I joining ViTAL, then? Because it *is* really, really annoying!!! And I love the badge!!!

So, here's what you put:

- who finds the tag incredibly annoying and hopes to get back at some of the people who use it by using it herself!

The badge is good isn't it? And although I disaprove of you're stated intention to get back at those who use it by using it yourself, I heartily welcome you to ViTAL. (Come to think of it, I am also using the tag... but only in the badge. I can't help myself, I must end this with some other smiley than the plain one.
-

"Disapprove" and "your". Why do I not use the preview button when I _know_ I always see these right after I have posted the message?

I'll let you slide on the misspelling but apostrophe misuse!
tsk tsk tsk

How's this, I'll put a (since you seem to be rather fond of them) next to my evil Entries (listed on my space), so fellow ViTAL members don't stumble upon them by accident.

Please let me join, and please tell me how to copy the badge?

The club president might have another way to copy the badge but here's how I did it.
I used <./>Test1014625</.> scroll down and cut the last paragraph.
It is then on your clipboard and you go into where you want the badge and paste.

Your in wizard, and I got the badge the way Shagbark mentions. No, wait, I put the badge there in the first place... but I did that by cut-and-paste as well.

_You're_. Man I'm up way to early for nothing.

_too_

Stupid Animal Planet, how am I supposed to notice they say Sunday 29th when I'm already thinking _this_ Sunday? And how am I supposed to tape 7 hours of The Future is Wild when I'm not even home. Bah!

Sign me up. I am anti-Viewer tag in that it makes me feel like I have been entered into a Readers' Digest Prize Draw.

Oh go on then, add me. I normally put in loads of spaces after my name so that it ruins the look of the viewer tag, then get sad because no-one can see it but me.

While you're around Mina, can I ask who actually came up with the _idea_ for the blasted tag?

B

It was on the Feature Suggestions list. If you fancy reading though the feature ideas page you might be able to find the culprit. It wasn't me, is all I can say.

*spends an entertaining 10 minutes digging around in the Feature Suggestions threads*

Well, I can't find it, but I'll say one thing: People round here come up with some damn stupid ideas.

B

Ah well, maybe it came up somewhere else.

It's an honour to add such distinguished members to ViTAL. I'd be thrilled, if it weren't for Mina pushing me down to second place on the 'referenced researchers' list. Dangnabbit.
