Nik is right, really. If you don't state what the issue is you'll be bumped to the bottom of the "need to do list", essentially. I can't stand it when people call in going, "I want to talk to a manager. No, I won't tell you why and I won't leave a message." Well guess what, that's too damn bad! Yes, you are a customer. But you are not THE customer. To better assist you, please at least state what the issue is and we'll get back to you in a timely manner. >:|

not wanting to talk to humans at all.
WELL... WE DON'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU EITHER!!!
/phoneslamI'm not convinced you are human.
And having spent several years doing customer service over the phone, I know how to leave an appropriate message.

He got bored I think combined with the fact that there a a bunch of ground squirrels or something running around their yard causing trouble and our dog chasesthem around making all sorts of noise and digs after them so he got a trap... over memorial day weekend he caught 10 lol... he then puts them in his truck and drops em off at the forest preserve...
We get pics from him sometimes lol...
Do you think I could get away with trapping the neighbor's cat and taking it for a joyride out to the country?
hmmmmm...

Not all baby bunnies have their own armed, psychotic bodyguard watching over them as they nurse and frolic with their mom bunny... But one does... I think the neighbors sensed trouble and left their cat indoors last night....

Nik your new avatar is adorable. Based on previous posts I would have not guessed you had a soft spot for baby bunnies.
To contribute to the bunny theme I saw a Danish rabbit while out today, not a baby though. They are frickin' huge. It looked like this, slightly shorter but it was hopping away so I can't say exactly how long it was.
And here is bunny show jumping, something started in Sweden.

Dayum those are huge!!!... No this little guy can fit in the palm of you hand. I accidentally discovered their hiding place pulling weeds to plant tomatoes, he started squeaking at me probably because I was stepping on them.
and I'm all looking around like an idiot for this sound that I can't place that always sounds like it's behind me... so I get out of the tomato bed and see the mulch popping up and so I use a small rake to pull the mulch back and there are two little naked bunnies cowering and one squeaking at me, telling me off.
So I covered them back up and went inside to see if the wildlife rescue people were still in operation. unfortunately bunnies aren't much of a concern... so their advice was to leave them alone
the mom bunny came back and nursed them all and then tucked them in with a blanket made out of her fur and everything was right in the universe.
except for the stupid cat's owners

Quetzalcoatl.Yomisha said: »"I want to talk to a manager!!!"
The customer is always wrong. But you have to be diplomatic about it and trick them into thinking they are right. What we did is create a quasi fictitious entity whose title is "credit manager" (because he has never been very impressed with titles)... but, (we explain to the customer), he is actually the CFO of the company and sits at the right hand of teh boss, who nobody but him gets to talk to.
He is based on a real person that used to work here with a common name, sadly he passed away some time ago but he is still working overtime for us from beyond the grave.
So you make up a name and a email box and a back story. And when little Miss Bitchy Skeezer calls up an asks to speak to the manager, you say... "I understand you are upset, {/lowered voice} but if you want to REALLY get something done about this, the person you really need to take this up with is my manager's boss, his name is Bill West (if that name sounds familiar it's because he does the voice of stimpy on Ren and Stimpy cartoons)
Then you explain the whole back story about how he is the REAL boss and the best at handling these types of situations...
But the thing about Bill is he is getting old...and he suffered a heart attack recently so he has been working a lot from home, so the only way to get a hold of him s through email. But make no mistake Bill is the man you want to talk to, he has the final authority to address your concerns.
Three things are happening in the back ground
1.) Creating a "higher authority" that everyone defers too
2.) Creating a sympathetic older character, an elderly scamp who is a bit of a rogue.
3.) Creating an employee that can't possibly be fired
Because he is the "credit manager" we use him for all of our heinous duties like collection letters, account suspensions
But you have to write his emails in the fake person's style as if this imaginary person is writting them.
Dear Madame:
First I would like to thank you for your continued support of the XYZ company. Your business is greatly appreciated and your concerns are very important to me.
I greatly appreciate you taking the time to write to me about this situation. Please allow me some time to thoroughly investigate this matter and I will get back to you shortly.
Deepest Regards,
Bill West
Credit Manager
Oh yeah, good old Bill, he is a suave mothafucka and professional to a fault. He is one of those classic old businessmen with pictures of him and like, the president on the wall. Always impecably dressed in a three piece suit.

I wear a two piece suit all the time. You have to so that you will feel comfortable in it. You will be amazed how other people treat you when you are wearing a proper suit.

You upload them to the internet on your website. Since most people don't have websites you can use someone else's like Facebook or imgur or photobucket Josiah'd. You asked a question and got a friendly, thought-out response. Totally got Josiah'd.

Rabbits are really smart for a rodent. With the Danish rabbits, you don't even have to keep them in a hutch when they're outside. Free-range bunnies!

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.

Update: Sorry Eternaltriumph, too much has changed D: (Page 698)
Eternaltriumph said: Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
