Cold calls. One surefire way to get off their list is by having a five year old handy. Works great on debt collectors too. They used to ask for me and I'd ask who was calling and say, sure, hold on and promptly get my youngest by telling her that one of Santa's elves was calling to get her Xmas list.

Kinda reminds me of my days on another forum. I was younger (around 13), very immature and a right asshole to be honest. I got numerous warnings and bans before the moderators had enough of me and it wasn't until I was permabanned that I realised how many chances the mods actually gave me. Not proud of the fact I didn't learn from my mistakes the first few times but I eventually did. So that's somewhat positive I guess.

I've done that sort of thing. I can put on a pretty convincing toddler voice and I've had callers tied up in knots. Also in tears, when I've asked if they were my mommy or daddy and when are they coming home from heaven.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

He was just so blunt and assertive that I found myself answering back in kind and that doesn't sit so well with me. ^^ THIS ^^ He is probably the only person on AF who I've called a fucking idiot. I'm not fond of people who provoke me that way, it takes an awful lot to wind me up. RE: Peanut Gallery Commentary on the Staff Log of Bannings and such like.

Same. It's a good feeling. A very good feeling: to be able to stand on top of the rooftops and shout "I'M NOT IMMATURE ANYMORE!!! YAY!!!" feels great.
Of course I only do that once a week now though. Hey! I've matured! RE: Peanut Gallery Commentary on the Staff Log of Bannings and such like.
