    hey myrna' date=' it's probably " diatomaceous earth. " it's a fine powder that dries the little buggers out. works on all kinds of bugs.

    Tricky stuff to find. Shops in Chinatowns seem to have it often enough, though. Look for the little matchbox-size box with a picture of a cockroach on it.

    i think that you're thinking of magic_chalk.JPG

    I'd love an invite but I still can't figure out how to get a decent ratio on there. nothing I download gets uploaded.

    you've gotta seed a couple of your own things, or jump on a really busy torrent that you may not necessarily want.

    pm me if you want one.

  20. ignore user options?

    in Soundboard

    Posted

    are you asking about the locked.gif on the last topic having to do with this?

    fwiw,

    Level 1: Tinted Glass (Placing users behind the tinted glass will prevent them from inviting you into a private topic.)

    Level 2: Wood Crate (Placing users in a wood crate has the same affect as tinted glass plus they will not be able to view your profile.)

    Level 3: Lead Box (Placing highly toxic users in this has the same affects as wood crate plus the user's topics and posts will be hidden from your view. Their names will not be displayed in the online information either.)

    Also note, you may wish to set yourself invisible from online displays so that users that you are ignoring can't see that your online.
