Wait until he calls you an idiot. I've experienced that.
He is only too eager to call others riddles as lame but is of no way capable to submit one good of his own.

Originally posted by kfennessyyou said "underwater" which is one word. In order for that answer to be correct you would have had to type 2 words as "under water". To simply place a glass of water on your head is standing under water, not underwater.
the guy who said glass of water is right (again) dang, ur good
Underwater means something entirely different than under water.😛

I do occasionally post puzzles but only when I've got a good one which isn't as often as people post pointless riddles which could have any one of 20 answers one of which is deemed correct.

When I was twelve years of age I could laugh my guts out of some jokes. Now I hear exactly the same joke again and see the twelve year olds laugh their guts out and I think "Oh my gosh, isn't this joke old?" And then I remember that this is a new joke for them. Of cource they can laugh their guts out as I did when I was twelve.
Exatly the same thing here. Some oldies are new for young people. Isn't it their right to have fun with old riddles if they're never heard them before?
If you don't understand this, then you have a problem with your social skills.
Everyone - rec me anonymous if you think I'm right. Xantoz can't hassle you if you rec, because he doesn't now who you are.

You talk alot about social skills, but it never seems to occur to you that a good part of having social skills is knowing what not to say. Most of these riddles I would never use in front of real people because of the inevitable groans and rolling of eyes.
The riddler runs the risk that the crowd won't like his riddle. I don't know where you get this idea that only positive comments are allowed.
Furthermore, this isn't the place for kiddie humor. Nobody under the age of 13 is allowed to join RHP. The site owners have made it clear that they don't want young kids here.

Originally posted by BigDoggProblemIf I hear a teeny joke, then I let those who enjoys it laugh at it. That is one part of social skill. It is not social skill to tell that people are idiots laughing at teeny stuff, especially if they are teenies. Xantoz does this but then he lacks social skills.
I'll give you [b]one non-sub anti-rec.

You said "a good part of having social skills is knowing what not to say" and one thing not to say that other people are beeing stupid. Social skill, you know.
This fourm is about posers and riddlers. Why do we have to have a judge to tell everyone his judgement about what is a good riddle (in his opinion) and what is not (in his opinion)? And why do we have to have Xanthoz to be this judge? He who apperantly lack total social skills to begin with?
When I see a riddle far lower than my ability, I just don't answer and let them who enjoy such a riddles answer it. Why woyld I destroy the fun for them? I'm not a judge.
