lol

sounds like a guest that needs to grow up

*snippers*

part of me thinks it's so cool that they're so open, the other part just shakes my head and wonders...dude, what is s/he thinking??????

I have become very tolerant of the talent over time (been doing the close up convention thing for 10 years), they dont mean anything by it, Im considered 'safe' to play up to.
I usually roll my eyes, take a deep breath and play along. Tho' I do have a highly developed sense of mischief, and sometimes plot devious green room revenge.

Someone very close to Mama Duck told me that I should remind Cliff Simon to ask to see her piercings so we could watch her turn red. Mama Duck would probably know who the culprit of that little scheme is. But since Cliff is not expected in Vancouver, that will have to wait for another time.

OH that would SOOOOOO work!! 'Specially with that new piercing!
Knowing her.....hmm I would say its Mama's lo'taur/wench (she has one of those ya know) and Cliff already has a habit of causing the tough lady to blush

And calling people up onstage during a talk to embarass them, takes up time that the audience can be listening to the speaker *checks to see how well that worked*

My experience is that the actors - and the fans and con staff - will all get away with whatever the others tolerate and condone....

Very true. However, the behaviour police can't be everywhere, so if someone is irritating you, they are also probably irritating everyone else. So, speak up. Tell the pain in the A** politely to behave themselves. Everyone around you will appreciate it.

Curses, THAT was the issue the last time I told someone "touch her like that again and I will break your arm" Politely...curses, knew I forgot something *EG*

Heh, well, if it's the con staff or volunteers who are acting like putzes, it's sometimes difficult to complain.

I think one of the worst volunteers I'd ever met was at a Creaton Con - security folk dressed as Klingons. They refused to speak English. You asked them a question - a simple question and they just glared at you. While volunteers are cheap, the con staff should screen out the idiots.
