zahavasdad: Give me an example in those areas you mentioned of over 2000 girls and boys in five or so streets and two small stores.
chocandpatienceMemberBPT: “I was in the process of trying to break my CR addiction (as so far, was doing quite well!) but since you asked, the answer is no.”
Good for you. I’m trying, unsuccessfully to do the same
“I still check in from time to time. Not so much to see if I’m missed, (was I?) “
yep, I noticed a number of threads/posts calling out for you recently
chocandpatienceMemberHaLeivi: it’s another of these undocumented features. Try the /profileegoincr switch
chocandpatienceMemberLeah222: good description
“I’massuming you are American.. if you are not particularly good at textual stuff.. you will still be much better than the average British girl.. “
that’s very true, so don’t worry kkbmp.
chocandpatienceMemberMichaelC: “Rabbi Falk would say if its the minhag of the community then Kol hakovod, if its not it could show gaava. “
No he wouldn’t. Stop putting rediculous quotes into Rabbi Falk’s mouth.
chocandpatienceMembernope, sorry.
What I told you works for me.
December 6, 2011 12:04 am at 12:04 am in reply to: Separate Times For Bochurim & Sem Girls In Gateshead #1029595chocandpatienceMemberMichaelC, there is an enormous amount of missing detail in your post, to put it kindly.
For those who may not know, Gateshead is quite unique.
It has a population of a few hundred families, close to a thousand seminary girls, and almost as many yeshiva bochurim
Add to that the fact that there is only one main street with only two small kosher stores, it’s patently obvious why you need different hours for bochurim and girls.
(my stats may be out somewhat – I’ve been away a few years – but that’s the basic picture)
chocandpatienceMemberso if you are in the same time zone as bowwow, always suspect he’s your host & strip the beds
bowwow, I may have possibly believed the bedding, but you ruined it by adding the towels bit.
chocandpatienceMemberHaLeiVi: +1

chocandpatienceMembersoliek: “teh” i have followers 😛
you must have started using auto-correct, because I haven’t noticed any teh’s since you left your subtitle behind.
chocandpatienceMembermods, can we close this?
chocandpatienceMemberbowwow’s having you all on
chocandpatienceMemberrb: glad you got sorted. You lost your iced-coffee, though.
chocandpatienceMemberwelcome Mod-007!
007!! 🙂
chocandpatienceMemberreal-brisker: I was just pointing to where I previously answered.
Don’t know what your problem might be – try logging in from another PC. Or perhaps someone else here can help.
chocandpatienceMember“choc- for some wierd reason, it shows the previous email!!?? “
try again.
don’t forget to click ‘update profile’ after you make the change
once you’ve changed that, you will be able to create another username.
chocandpatienceMembermoishy – if you go back to your profile, which email address is showing – the previous one or the new one?
chocandpatienceMemberrb: “choc – How do you make a link on your name? Where do you put the link?”
<http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/changing-username#post-327877>
did you use the same link mentioned at the start of the thread?
(how did you originally change your username to rb?)
chocandpatienceMembermoishy – what about my advice above?
chocandpatienceMemberamazing!
thanks, feivel
chocandpatienceMemberdunno. explorer works for me. ask joseph 😉
we must be on a different page. did you read this thread?
chocandpatienceMemberif you are where I am then it’s at the bottom left.
chocandpatienceMemberme.
my spelling makes that obvious.
chocandpatienceMemberrb:
firefox. what screen are you at and what do you see?
chocandpatienceMemberrb: the link goes in ‘website’
chocandpatienceMembermoi aussi: I never ignore anyone. I probably didn’t notice your post. By the way, I think the mods mentioned that their email accounts are no longer in use. So you probably won’t get a reply.
rb: no. i updated and it refreshed the profile details. it took quite a few seconds, though.
binah: if you want to change your name for security, then don’t discuss the name you’re choosing. Otherwise anyone looking at archives will know who you are.
Also, create a new username, don’t just change your current name. (And it probably is wise not to use an email address which gives away your real name.)
chocandpatienceMembergo to your profile – click on your name at top left, where it say ‘welcome moishy’. then on ‘edit’ at the right.
chocandpatienceMembermoishy: i changed it back again. I meant that I tried it out and it worked. if you can’t get it to work, perhaps just create a new username. (it won’t let you put in the same email address twice, so first change the email address of your current name)
binahyeseira: why do you want to change? It’s a nice name and fits you.

November 24, 2011 10:25 am at 10:25 am in reply to: Eating at peoples houses with teenage daughters? #984021chocandpatienceMember“That is absolutely ridiculous. Someone should be happy with their spouse and know that they have different Yisronos and different Chesronos than everyone else.”
Sam2: Here in E”Y it is common for young couples to invite each other for meals. It is a problem and does cause sholom bayis issues.
Your comment is true for couples who have been married longer.
Freshly married couples do not have that certainty.
chocandpatienceMember“Interjecting Mod”
aka iMIB
chocandpatienceMemberShould work. I just changed myself to choc2 and it updated.
Try it again, perhaps it didn’t go through the first time.
chocandpatienceMemberI have the same problem as you, BaalHabooze. I’m not against giving petch (I think it has its place) but I get upset with myself when I give my kids petch out of anger.
I find it important to keep my cool. Children are good at getting us worked up. If I keep calm, most of the time I realise that my children are just hungry/hyper/tired or just behaving like children, not purposely getting me upset. In that case, I just try to distract them.
When necessary, warn them calmly of a punishment (which suits the crime) and follow through.
chocandpatienceMemberMod 80. I was wondering where you were.
Gone without a farewell?
At least you could come back as feivel.
chocandpatienceMember“first off, I do apologize …”
Jothar, you could have done better than that
“We have a lunatic criminal…”
Popa: that branch of the subject is not under discussion here, and you know that.
chocandpatienceMember*liek* to both your posts
chocandpatienceMember“this joseph guy is violating i believe one of the takanos of abbeinu Gershom thou shall not read other peoples mail”
Are you joking?
I think he’s violating a lot more than a takonoh.
chocandpatienceMemberhappy to hear!
thank you for your menshlichkeit, 42.
(and a good thread title)
chocandpatienceMemberWe’re waiting for you AYC. I hope you come back.
(Though bear in mind that even if he does want to return, he may want to take a break from the CR to ‘recover’).
November 21, 2011 9:51 pm at 9:51 pm in reply to: Which are the great subtitles in the coffeeroom? #895077chocandpatienceMemberGoq: I liked your ‘spaced out’ subtitle. That was clever.
I like squeak’s, too.
chocandpatienceMember“Artscroll would have never published their siddurim and other sefrei kodesh with English translations (and other languages) if one could not learn/daaven in English and other languages. “
They published English translations so that we understand what we daven.
I’m not saying that one cannot daven in English – I’ve no idea – but the Artscroll is no proof.
chocandpatienceMemberKevin Mitnick’s The Art of Deception is fascinating. It was an eye-opener for me. I strongly recommend it.
chocandpatienceMemberJust noticed the other thread about this. Ignore my above post (or mod – just delete, please. Thanks)
chocandpatienceMemberRB: “42 – How is that done exactly? ” (=outside contact made between posters)
I’d want to know that too.
The answer seems obvious to many here, but I don’t know. There always was a rule about not allowing email addresses to be posted.

chocandpatienceMemberAvram in MD: Well put. Para 3 – my thoughts precisely, but expressed better.
“Why do debates on this one issue suddenly change the tone of the CR for you?”
I don’t mind debating. It’s the ‘random attacks’ as you put it. And all the name of a good cause, so can’t be taken to task.
chocandpatienceMember42, thanks for your clarification. I do appreciate the effort you put into the CR. It’s a difficult, time consuming job and I’m sure you get mostly criticism rather than the thanks you should get.
What disturbs me is the negative tone the CR has taken. Negativity has always been ‘shouted out’ here, which is why I enjoy this place. Now, in the name of safety, no holds are barred.
Social engineering is a fascinating topic. (Perhaps I’ll start a thread on it). Teenagers tend to be too trusting and the internet is Dangerous. They do need to be saved from themselves and I agree we should all be keeping an eye out to keep them safe.
But the battering of one and all here (I don’t mean you, mods) isn’t the way to go about it. It’s just become fodder for those who thrive on hostile exchanges.
I hope you understand my viewpoint.
