what are these things?
If someone made a helpful post or something funny, you should toast them, otherwise if they're a complete Butt Warrior, roast them
In my case, for some odd reason; I get roasted ~3 times a day - Someone explain why/who? Could be the same person who was on a rampage deleting all my posts..

I will occasionally roast people who have exceptionally poor grammar and/or spelling. Typically, though, I toast people who have either done something very nice for someone, or been so thoroughly sarcastic and cynical about someone's insanely ignorant post.

And UserLoser -- maybe it's Hostile? =P

"How's abouts some roasted beef?"
In this case, you would roast RackPaintYo for his obscene image.

Cuphead can't moderate those forums either, and he's been gone and just recently a bunch of my posts were deleted until i complained to a few people :P
Oh -- I didn't see you say "it could be the same person...". Not that it mattered; I was just giving you crap anyway. =P

lol.. if poor grammar gets me roasted, i hope theres no limit on how many roasts one can have ^_^. but, do you really think poor grammar is deserving of being roasted? i see people with alot of roasts and i think bad person who is bm and makes people mad.. maybe i should rethink that. now it has absolutley no meaning to me =\

People roast/toast for different reasons. I tend to reserve it to those who are extremely idiotic in their posts; others may be more free in their roasting. However, it's worth noting that bad grammar definitely won't make you many friends here. People like to spend their time reading posts, not figuring out what a poster was trying to say.
I haven't used the toast/roast buttons in a long time. They used to be fun, but they got old :)
do i make it hard for you to read? im sorry :(
maybe i should limit myself to one sentence per line?
im just no fan of grammar when it comes to typing..
but i didnt expect to get many friends on these forums anyway.
it doesnt seem like u take too kindly to my folk ;)
so i try not to post too much.
and read alot bcuz ive seen what happens to people who repost questions that have already been asked O.O..

Instead of enter, put a period and one or two spaces, and life's good.
lol i do that anyway =P thats a habit from 6th when i learned to type and my teacher was always telling us to do one space after the period and i was like >:( ill do what i want!

Instead of a period and one or two spaces, shoot yourself. You know exactly what they meant and you're just being a smart ass.
:( why flame me when i was being serious? -.- i can read my sentences just fine and nobody complained about it before. but, then again, ive never really been a part of anything formal like these forums. im just going to shutup now since i cant say anything without getting roasted.
wait i just realized that wasnt towards me.. but i think it was supposed to be
-1 for complaining! :P
j/k ^_^;
EDIT -- Rofl, somebody deleted User's post. Hahahahha
maybe its bcuz ur name says loser in it ^^
whos supposed to do the toasting? the person who you helped or the person who saw you help someone?

j/k ^_^;
lol i almost said that exact same thing!
-edit-
should you toast someone bcuz they know the answer? or is it just the effort? ill never get toasted since i think im the only one who asks basic questions :P
Toast somebody if they help you with something. Roast somebody if they just make an obscene / retarded post and/or ask for toastings. :)
Toast people who ask well-formulated questions, the way they're supposed to be asked, having already searched for answers, etc.
Toast people who give good answers, be they answers that come free, or answers that just show you the path to walk to find the truth.
Roast people who post bad. Roast people whose posts should be deleted by the moderators. Roast people that didn't think before posting.
Also, toast somebody who finds the solution afterwards and posts it for everybody, and roast them if they say they found the solution but not how :)

It's about people who find the answers to their own questions...
oh, i see. thx for clarifying. ^_^
Roasted :D

Should also note that a good portion of why I am mad at him in addition to a dozen other things was because of a foolish assumption. ::) Either way, It wasn't me and I'd go on a limb and say either he posted something obsene or deleted it himself just to get attention.

Assumed what? What the fuck are you talking about? I never assumed it was you because I can read that you're not a moderator -- Has anyone else noticed the big change in the way Hostile acts ever since he joined vL?

Yes, he seems to have more extremes. He's very helpful in a lot of cases, and in some cases he's very offensive.
Haha, people described him that way before he joined vL. We had quite the discussion about it :)
Cute how that's a newly acquired trait due to his joining.
I just noticed it recently, I never noticed his posts before he joined vL, or remember him...

In which case, you can't really say he started acting like such and such if you have no idea what he was like pre-joining.
Yeah...Hostile hasn't changed at all. He's still the same guy he always was. He just has more muscle in this particular environment than he used to. :P
Atleast I know I'm not alone
