Maxd I thought you were the moderator, "one who arbitrates" and not a spell checker. Maybe you should add that to your list of job duties here at C.M.. I'm glad you've had a big day making fun of my ONE misspelled word but honestly it doesn't surprise me from your past responses regarding my posts that I've made and oh BTW I never took the time to respond to. If you're going to point out every poster on this forum that misspells fine but if not sit back and look for something worthwhile to enforce, JMO!
As far as the Engaged comment the OP was looking for a term, I thought, if a casino wasn't accredited or ROGUE then what was it?? I simply said Engaged. Anyone playing at a casino that's not accredited or rogue is engaged with that casino. I'm replying to the OP.
Now to end this if you have a problem with me PM me and I'd be happy to discuss whatever problem you have with me but don't come on a public board and try to make me look stupid because I won't tuck my tail and run like some of the others I've seen...![]()
This could look like I'm sucking up to Max, which I'm not - I always speak my mind (as almost everyone here probably knows, and for which I've paid for with bans for offending people unnecessarily). But TOC, I cannot see how Max is making fun of you - his responses were very much (to me) jovial and amusing.
I misspell 'rouge' and 'rogue' ALL the time - it's got to be one of the most commonly misspelled words on this forum - and Max has probably seen it misspelled 1000 times I'm guessing. From where I'm sitting, he wasn't attacking you at all - just having fun with the pictures and the pun (which I confused the hell out of everyone bringing YoDawgYo into it - which clearly is not yet a familiar meme here yet).
As for the 'Engaged' - I actually got it and thought it was quite witty. But it would be easy not to get the meaning - I *think* Max read it as "engaged in operations" or "engaged doing something" rather than the sense in which I think you meant it - i.e. "engaged to a partner prior to marriage" right?
I think this is just innocent misunderstanding here, from where I'm sitting. And if I thought Max was making inappropriate fun of you, I'll likely gleefully tattle to Bryan like a narky little schoolgirl (cause that's the kind of person I am)
---------
But I have my own bone to pick!!
I'm a little offended that I didn't get any laughs for this effort:
Obviously, no one here *knows* 'funny'. Or maybe my jokes suck. Let me think....
Nup, you all suck!![]()
Ok, I get that you took the thing as a personal attack -- which it most certainly was not -- but ... what can I say? It's not about you TOC, never was. Look back where this particular incident started, a thread posted from love2winalot, not you. It says 'rouge' right in the thread title. That's what I saw and that's what caught my attention.
Note that I made my initial post _before_ you entered the thread. I made the distinction between the two terms _before_ you misspelled anything. I just don't see how you could take this to be about you specifically. Especially since I've quoted you and several others here in this thread pretty much equally, no specific 'make me look stupid' at all. If I may say so you making this personal is more about you than it is about anything I've posted here.
Besides, JHV has the right of it. I see this rouge/rogue thing 100 times a day. This seemed like as good a place as any to make a point of it, to try and clarify once and for all that 'rouge' is one thing and 'rogue' is another.
The point is that for many folks who say 'rouge' when they mean 'rogue' it's not just a spelling mistake. They say 'the Rouge Pit' and 'rouge casino' and 'they are rouge' all the time. They actually think the term is 'rouge', for real.
So, that's where I was coming from on this and, no offense, but I think I made it pretty much about the general issue and not about you at all. And I tried to do it with a little humour. And we kind of got into the fun of playing with it a bit.
Is that a bother? Well, excuse me but having bit of a giggle over this was not, is not and will not be about whether you (specifically) misspelled or misused the word(s). Those who do and have done are legion hereabouts.

Jeeze - who pissed in this guy's cornflakes. Take a chill pill will ya?
Actually, no one has a problem with you (as far as I know), but if you choose to misspell a commonly used word that gives it a totally new meaning, please expect to be corrected. Max and the other's were having a bit of fun, why you took this personal - I don't know.
I coined this term years ago, and if I had known it would have caused so much difficulty for misspellers, I would have called them "asshole casinos" - no one seems to misspell that word
Back on topic, casinos that are not in the accredited section or rogue/not recommended are simply "unlisted casinos". How's that for simplicity![]()

WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS? SEE ABOVE SPELLING(S)?
Twist it any way you want but you were replying to me and not the OP thread. It's a reply to my post ABOVE. I want to get along but bad spelling should not be the C.M.'s moderators concern, surely you have more to do? You had fun, that's fine, it was cute with the make-up pictures but I'm a member like many others and don't want to be insulted or made fun of by the management of this site. I posted a thread several days ago how I respected this site, hmmm. You know I really tried to over look this but thought an adjustment needed to be made. This is a forum and lots of people are scared to speak because of the same type crap you started with me, agreed or not. You're the moderator, I'm the poster, MODERATE
Moderators are also "members" of the board. And moderation is to make corrections when one sees fit - like pointing out misspellings that can cause confusion. There is a big difference between the meaning "red" and "crook". You may not realize the importance of this - but we do.
You also fail to understand it wasn't a personal jibe. Like I said before, calm down a little bit. Thanks!
