Hello Fubarians....let me pose a question to all of you...thsi goes to you as well mr baby jesus...what constitutes a Bling Chaser???

let me present some facts...

Fact 1: When Fubar (Formerly known as Cherry Tap), there was no blings about...so anyone who was part of thsi site had towork hard in setting up a page, getting known out there by word of mouth and networking..also in the simple case that there were only 25 levels at that time from freshmeat to godfather..the one thing everyone wanted to be..now that cherrytap..now known as FUBAR has evolved and become a new site almost entirely new levels came about and with having a limit of 2500 pictures including teh nsfw ones, thats a lot to rate. which is probably the reasons for the new toys called blings...help to rate faster, make pages more artistic to oncoming lookers and vets of both sites...fubar and cherrytap

Fact 2: Blings...every knows them..Everyone wants them.....but how do you go about getting them without having to one pay for it yourself, since tehy cost actual money and two if you do get it on your own merit, how to not get caught up in the game of always having to buy someone else a bling when every has the same access to the very same thing that is placed out there for fun..

Simple..you do what you do..for one thing...we all are bling chasers if you will...when introduced to something new and interesting ..of course eveyone is going to want some part of it because its not something that stays stagnant but is ever changing thanks to teh fubar staff and all of its participants....

truth of the matter is...the only thing that can consitute a true bling chaser is someone who wants nothing else but just blings from everyone they meet..not out of friendship or even playing teh game but for there own selfish greed in not wanting to spend tehre own money and if offers are agreed upon, renieging on a deal and not paying what you agreed on..there are lots of them out there..

if you really want to avoid this matter as a whole people, excuse me my fellow fubarians..let me tell you.. just keep it real...play the game and respect allthsoe that do.. if you are one of teh ones who are playing people for blings, or fubucks and making unreaalistic offers..you need to stop it..

To everyone else.. Level up and continue to make a name for yourself and help others when they are brand new or thsoe who are still playing teh game jsut for teh sake of the game it really is....come on people..

Its an online game...its not real life..and if for you it is real life...golden rule that never changes....treat others as you want to be treated...#moral of the story..do not block someone or make friends of people just for fubucks, blings or just to humiliate them...that is not cool..that is not FUBAR!!!!

Well Everyone its that time of the year where everyone is supposed ot be gettign ready to Celebrate christmas, wherther its because you are doing it int eh memory of our lord jesus christ, or because of the holiday spirit and you want to give as good as you might get..its all teh same.... For everyone but me...I'll tell you y As most of you may already know, i've once again been assigned into iraq for a other tour in the "War agasint Terrorism and Iraqi Frredom". Well i was hoping to be home for the holidays and Just when i thought things were goingot start looking up that i might get to spend an actually christmas home for once, since being in the Army, ive been away from home on almoost every single major holiday that there has been and now it looks like this year will be no different. I have a Daughter, Her name Is Xi'an and those who have meet her know how vibrant and enthralling she can be..well ive been on this little monsters tail about what she wanted for christmas and of course she never told me up until a fe days ago, her words were "Daddy i want you home for christmas adn when you get here you dont have to worry about going to work anymore, you can stay here at home with me!" talk about your silent responses and Tear Jerkers Right??? Ii was totally stunned and speechless when i heard that..but in my hear i knew that i ahd submitted my leave two and a ahlf months in advanced so that i could be home for the holidays and be one of my babygirls presents.. Or atleast i thougth that woudl be the case...Someone in the system has been messing almost everyone leave dates up and it just amazes me at how you can be told, "Put in your Months and dates for leave and well make sure you get those dates square." Only to turn around and Then HAND OUT The Dates They want you to have... Now some people get to know when they are goin onleave a few weeks to maybe a few months out., depending on how good the resources are for there company..well i got totally screwed on mine..most of you who are probably reading this know what im talking about,, teh I dont know yet because they haven gotten me a date as to when exactly im coming home... Well asking for a month and a half straight, youd think someone would have gotten me an answer right??WRONG!!! The NIght i found out when i was finally getting a chance to go on leave was when i got to the waiting station..What a Crock Of Bullshit!!!!!!! Im out there doing ym job just like every soldier in this Hellish Place and I cant even get a simple request as to when im going home but several thousand other soldiers can??? Im sure im notthe only one who has fallen into this dilemma but i mena damn, this is my third time over here..never getting a chance to go on leave the first time i was back here in 2003 because at first it was 30 days of leave then it went to 15 days and when it came around ot my section it was 7 days..i told tehm where they could stick it...thats totally fucked up...how can you go from having 30 days of leave in a warzone to only 7...i refused to go through that and then my second time in 2005 before my window for leave could even open up, i got a Red Cross message tellign me that my grandmother on my Fathers side who practially helped raise me was Dying and then after the whole fiasco of tryingto get me out of there in time to see her she Died before i even had teh paperwork in hand and teh funeral was planned 5 days from then..i had to jump thorough hoops to get home and when i did, it was on the very day she was to be buried...and get this three days after we buried her, my first cousin who i was very close to died form heart complications in the hospital..so when i emailed My chain bacj teh news yes they extended my leave because it wasa family related matter but that was my leave..wat a way to spend it huh? Well now its 2007..i got to germany in 2006 fully knowing that i would end up here in iraq again but i never had the opportunity to be on actually leave and enjoy the holidays or just being home for that matter..and now i get ot go through this???? Talk about your living hells huh..Not only do i get to risk life and limb but i also have to go tthrough buerocratic crap just to be albe to leave and i dont give a damn if its spelled wrong im really in just one hell of a foul mood and me being able to FINALLY Leave this place and all it BULLSHIT Behind will indeed imporove my mood some but not untill im on amercan soil, looking ito my babyguirls eyes and running form her as well as seeing what family and friends i can..im still lgettingot leave yes and for that small thing i am gratefull for but what i am not is all teh Ridicoulous things i have had to endure and go throught just to get to this point. Well ive taken enough of everyone time ranting and venting about what most would call just nonsense but it makes sensee to me...hoepfully ill get to see or hear from most of you before The New Year and If not, KNock back one FOR Me Will ya..Lord knows im gonna need one or twenty when i do get a chance to get my hands on some. Im Out For now One Love R
