I'm trying to keep it positive over there. Some people just don't get it and are going to mock on it. Hell, people on this board have done it. I'd just really like her returned, so if anyone is already registered on PT and can post some support, that'd be great!
At least there is some hope! I knew your thread over @ PT before I even saw your name sass! Ha! I am about to read through it.
Edit: Just read through it. Ugh....what a bunch of kanye's. I would post over there saying so but that would probably be more of a hinder to flood thier boards with posts from angry inforoosters.
I seriously hope that really is RedVelvet and feel certain it probably is. The bad thing is that she is pretty much a famous cult figure now and the temptation to keep her is high.
Hudson's friend, if you are reading this take some advice from Spike Lee....Do the Right Thing!

Sass you better be having a Welcome Home party if this works out and RedVelvet is returned. And I better be invited! You and the Velvet were mighty elusive at Roo this year and you managed to escape my stinky hugs all weekend!
I don't know RedVelvet's story....but I read the whole thread on PT and I really hope Hudson's friend has her and returns her. What an awesome story it will be to add to her adventures once she's home.
Update: some are suspecting this is a hoax and that I'm someone named NYEMIA or Spunion (lol...I still don't even know what a spunion is). In any event, hopefully I've provided enough evidence to prove I am who I say I am and that RedVelvet is, in fact, real.
It is obvious by all the pictures that you aren't a hoax. Do you think you even really share an IP address with those names or did he just say that to be a troll? It would be like someone on here accusing you of being a known troll or liar on this site.
I mean, even if your IP address over there matched those names it is not like someone would go through the trouble to post all those pictures just to pull a prank on PT.
at least some of the people over there are being genuinely helpful.

^^The IP addresses really do match. You can see that information for yourself, as explained in the thread. Just go to one of Sass' posts and click on the gray "logged" link next to IP Address and it comes up. It's a weird coincidence, that's for sure.
I've gotta say, the response from PT has been overwhelmingly more genuine and sincere than I would've initially thought. I'm honestly impressed and pleasantly surprised
^ Oh! I was clicking on IP address instead of logged. Yikes! That is a really trippy coincidence. I hope they end up believeing you aren't that crazy NYEMIA or Spunion
Yeah, it's really up to Hudson at this point. I can't account for the IP thing...I definitely don't know those people and, in fact, I don't think anyone has ever used this laptop except for me. Regardless, Strum is right...after everything I've heard about PT, it's a pleasant surprise that there haven't been more asinine post in that thread.
Update: no word on RV yet. Yeah, couple of jerks over there...so amusing to see the mob mentality kick in when someone started a bidding war. We really appreciate everyone who's come over to support and keep the thread bumped!
Yeah. What are the chances that his friend found a blonde doll around the What Stage at exactly the same time as RV was lost and it's not her...because her tambourine is missing? Unless he was lying all along, there's no way it's not her. Am I being crazy?
I'm livid. I'll up the reward, but not until I see a pic of the doll.

I'm callin' nans. Of all the possible characteristics of a doll to choose from, a detachable item on the arm seems like the weakest choice to use to make the claim that it's a different doll. I mean, you could say it has a different shirt, or the hair's not dreaded, or the eyes are not the same color.
I'm not sure if Hudson has just been yankin' the chain or if his friend is just a douchenozzle, though. I'd say it's clearly one or the other

mt = My Threads. When you post on a thread on PT, it automatically is put into this personal section of the board titled "My Threads" That way when you first get on PT you can just go there and see all the threads you've posted on rather than trying to find them on the main screen. As you might've noticed, threads get lost rather quickly there. It's a pretty handy feature
Yeah, but why do people type MT if they're also posting something...redundant, no? If you make a post, it goes to My Threads, so there's no need to also type MT...unless you're only typing MT. Am I missing something?
Post by strumntheguitar on Jul 29, 2009 11:49:16 GMT -5
^^Well I never said the act of typing MT was the most sensible thing to do... I think it's just become a custom on PT that someone types it whenever they see a thread they're interested in and want to follow

i know i'm prolly gonna take tons o shit for this but i just gotta ask why a post bout someone losin somthin at roo gets stickied? have'nt we all lost somethin at roo....or other festies? i'm sorry you lost you baby doll but does that really take priority over lost wallets, cash, phones, id's, cameras, or other "stuff"? i'm not tryin to be a dick at all! i'm just not understandin how out of everyone who posts here who has lost actualy valuable or tangibly important items don't get the same attention! i understand and sympathize with your loss...but how is this fair?
Post by strumntheguitar on Aug 5, 2009 0:51:08 GMT -5
^^It's called "Sentimental Value." Something that money can't replace. You can buy another wallet, cell phone, what have you... but when you have an item that means the world to you and is irreplaceable, it tends to take much higher value over other materialistic things.
Also when you're a respected member of Inforoo, people tend to take you more seriously and make a bigger effort to help you out, hence the stickied.

It's just that Sass has been a member around here for a while now and lots of people from the boards have been to shows and whatnot with RedVelvet and it's kind of a big deal. I don't know the details and haven't ever felt entitled to inquire but I know that RedVelvet is very sentimentally valuable to Sass. Either way, I don't see why it matters why it's stickied or not.
