This is a message to all of the Friends & Fans of Clint Catalyst.
I hope it is O.K. for me to post this here.
Since I am new, I can't post in the commercial section
Are you on ****************? There is a NEW Clint Catalyst fan group there.
I can't post links yet, so just go there and search his name in the groups section.
We'd LOVE to have you in the group!
It's kind of slow at the moment. :(
Tell for your friends.
xo
Promotional announcements go in promotional announcements
but only after you've been posting a while. Simply spamming is not acceptable.
The who now? :confused:
What? There isn't anything there but spam. What's your non-acceptance going to do about it?Quote:

Please do not use tricky spelling to get around a word which is blocked on the forums. Very few words are blocked and those which are are blocked for a reason.
Lastly, I have known Clint for years. I have published Clint and Clint has published me. Clint is welcome to participate in the Blue Blood boards any time he likes and he is welcome to send Blue Blood press releases about his projects any time he likes.
He would never be so disrespectful here. Even if he has assigned you the job of astroturfing for him across the internet, I would be very surprised and disappointed if he wanted you to bring that fake grass roots BS here to Blue Blood. A Blue Blood audience is a tad too sophisticated for this type of nonsense and you'll get no benefit from it here.
I think its CURIOUS that the person KNEW about the blocking... and went around it on their first post.
I remember Clint from the Bay Area "scene" back in the day. Don't know him personally. I do know he's good peeps and doesn't need this silly shit to further his work.
OEC
I imagine they didn't, but saw the result and edited it.Quote:

Do you mean how it got edited into a bunch of asterix, presumably by Amelia?Quote:

Anyway, I would hardly call avoiding a word filter to get an essential part of your message across rude. I'm sure the reason for its existence is an entertaining cultural statement or something, but bans on worlds rarely (read: never) hold too much of an objective moral highground.
yep, that guy is cool as hell, and a great writer.Quote:

We had cupcakes with Clint not that long ago. He lives right up the street from me, which I guess is why it seems kind of discomforting to have this sort of disconnected promo post here.I've known him for what seems like three lifetimes at this point.
I do apologize. Very sorry about that. I did not mean to upset/offend.Quote:

I know he does not need anything to further his work either.Quote:

I first made an acct here to post about it when the group was new & I was trying to spread the word. I though there might be people in this community who would be interested in it.
Again, I am sorry to have upset people.
The good thing though; I am now quite interested in the Blue Blood network and plan on being quite active now {maybe even modeling?}.
Again - I am sorry. Clint was very happy that I started that group for him.Quote:

I've not known Clint as long as the two of you, but I can honestly say that what I did {the ******* group & post here}, I did out of kindness & appreciation for him. He's a super guy & I was only trying to spread the word about his group.
I made my first trip to L.A. earlier this month and Clint was kind enough to let me stay at his place. I know he has some ideas in store for the group that I started on *******, including prizes & contests that will be exclusive to the group.
I am sorry that I never came back to the forums after my initial post, but I'm back now. *finally*

A Blue Blood audience is also sophisticated enough to see that bumping a thread like this to talk about all the great things you are doing on a News Corp site, especially when you violate forum rules again to do so, is just astroturfing for corporate interests over community ones.
I think your profile needs a photograph.
With all the fake-ass people Clint has hooked up over the years, who turned around and did nothing for him in return, he could really throw me and Blue Blood a bone at this point, to make up for this.
I'm really sorry, and I hate that I seem to have gotten on your bad side. :(Quote:

As for my profile, I just completed it.
I think Clint is great, but really, I wouldn't send someone over to his place to shill for me like that. I know there are lots of places on teh intarwebs that allow this sort of soulless promo, but this really isn't one of them. If Clint wants to get together and talk about whatever cool project he has going on, we're generally open, but this is a lot like going to a party of his and telling everyone they should leave his party to go to someone else's instead. It's just kind of inconsiderate. He was an excellent door man, perhaps ask him sometime about how clubs view people fliering for other clubs on their dancefloor. We generally encourage people to participate here for a while before they start hawking links and that sort of thing because we think that people get a better sense of what is and is not appropriate.
I understand.Quote:

You were not just apologizing. Please don't insult my intelligence or the intelligence of the members of these forums. You were also promoting some BS about exclusive contests you were going to do to promote Clint on another site. We just gave away Sisters of Mercy tickets here this past week, so, if Clint wanted to do something, he could approach me. Clint might not be a seminal band, but I'm usually down for promoting people in the scene.
I'm absolutely not insulting your intelligence.
I swear that is not what I was doing. I am sorry that I even mentioned that.
If I could figure out how to message you privately I would...
I don't want to keep things going in this thread.
As it is obvious that some things I have said were taken the wrong way
I'd really like it if this entire thread could just go away. lol
That's easy. Just press Alt+F4 and it all magically disappears :D
don't worry about it, when folks are here to genuinely participate in the community we're usually pretty easy going about things.Quote:

You're easy going on this forum? HAHAHAHAHA! Jesus, if this is your version of easy going, I'd hate to see you on a bad day:1orglaughQuote:

never heard of him... but now i have so um... despite the fuck-ups, i guess... it was a good thing? o.O
****** is my friend for this sort of thing.
maybe a more respectful approach would have been
"this dude's awesome." and from the ensuing conversation about him, a curios person would just do the ****** thing.
(which is pretty much what i expected upon entering the thread ^.^; )
I am notorious for fucking things up. lol.Quote:

He's a wonderful, kindhearted & talented individual.
My only intention was to spread the good word.
****** is my friend too & I am sure you already found his ********* ****.
Clint sends me fairly regular updates to add there, so it's a good place to learn more about all that he has done & continues to do.
BTW - you, soma_stardust, are an absolute doll. ♥
I think that everyone who has ever came into contact with Clint loves him.Quote:

I'm messed up in my Clint and I hate head.
Now go and post on other threads too... Somehow you convinced me of your claims that it wasn't intentional, BUT then again you still keep bumping this thread. What does that say? Are you maybe secretly in love with head? I mean Clint.

:popcorn:
Let's go with the "join in other threads" idea, shall we?
If you can lever Clint into a conversation about vampires, evolution or the merits of footwear as a political commentary, then we'll get your motives. If not, this thread will just rot into the rest of the junk in Promo and we'll all forget about it - which is what you're asking us to do.
When you poke a tiger with a stick and notice a reaction, it's best not to stand around and say sorry 20 times, especially "S.. :1poke: O.. :1poke: R.. :1poke: R.. :1poke: Y..". Back up and join the rest of us throwing food at the penguins.
we can't say the g-word either? D:
whyyyyyy? now i feel like a tard. :lol_hitti
