So, ever since registering with TL about a half year ago, I noticed something.

In life, there are only three constants: death, taxes, and the almighty banlings.

Therefore, I have decided to create a religion around the bangods, casting them as a pantheon of divine beings that govern the world of TL. For example, I am choosing to portray Nyvone as a trickster god, who delights in the prostrations of PBUs at his feet before slaughtering them.

It is my hope that this will become the official religion of TL.

Current list of banlings(please suggest any for removal or addition):UPDATED WITH ACTIVE BANLINGS
Ares[Effort], Beyonder, Barrin, boesthius, Carnac, Chill, CTStalker, Empyrean, EvilTeletubby, Excalibur_Z, Fakesteve[TPR], GHOSTCLAW, GTR, Harem, heyoka, iamke55, Insane, IntoTheWow, Jibba, JWD, Kau, Klogon, KwarK, Liquid`Drone, Liquid`Jinro, mahnini, micronesia, motbob, Nyovne, p4NDemik, pachi, pangshai, Saracen, semioldguy, vGI-CoW, Waxangel, zatic, Zelniq, {CC}StealthBlue

EDIT: I wrote a little guide to GG.NoRe, though it has very little in comparison to what I am writing for the others.
+ Show Spoiler +

GG.NoRe-As you walk towards the temple, you see an elegant, curving structure with jagged lines protruding from the back. You look more closely, than realize that this blue monstrosity is a horse's head. You decide to walk in. As you approach the door, you see an old man pounding on a stained glass window, as if trying to break it. "LET ME IN!" he cries, seemingly oblivious to your presence. He continues with this, until you tap him on the shoulder, now curious about this lone figure."Who are you?" he asks.
You offer your hand, but nothing more.
"They cast me out...they broke me...but I'm still alive!"As he says this, he drives his fist clean through the window, shattering a depiction of Plexa. He laughs once more, then you see his face change...It becomes more bestial, more contorted.
"Nice meeting you, stranger, but duty calls!"he punctuates this by leaping through the broken window.
Sounds of fighting come from inside, the old man's fists as he strikes whatever lurked there. You then see a flash before his body comes hurtling out of the window, limp and bleeding. He lands fifty feet away, then quietly gets up, dusts his shirt, and ambles over. He pounds on another window this time.
GG.NoRe could be called many things, as he has so many names, but he is mostly known as a corrupter, an infestor. Team Liquid simply shall never be free of him, nor will he ever stop trying to troll Team Liquid. He exists parasitically, leeching of the community's goodwill, slowly leeching off of their thoughts, adapting his strategy. Only a year past was GG.NoRe permanently expunged from the annals of TL, but still his influence remains strong. Although very few people acknowledge it, it is widely known that at the height of his power, GG.NoRe held over two dozen accounts in thrall.
Only a fraction of these have been found.
GG.NoRe is one of the archenemies of TL for one reason: he is persistent, and never gives up on trying. Only last week was his newest identity expunged, The Black. Most of the gods have deigned to offer us the comfort that they are still making efforts to exile him permanently, but though the gods' word must be true, we must remain vigilant.
In order to rid ourselves of the hatred that GG.NoRe inspires, we must devote ourselves to Nyvone, the banling of banning, the one with the power to turn his silent watch over the halls of Team Liquid into a time of joy and celebration, the one who has executed personally many PBU accounts, the one with the scythe and smile. Only in giving thanks to our lord for this blessing that he bestows upon us, for the safety of Team Liquid and our emotional well-being, will we ever be rid of GG.NoRe.
Remain watchful.
Remain wary.
Remain suspicious.
Devote to the gods all your strength, all your praise, and you have nothing to fear, even from one who has spent his mortal existence fighting them in futile attempts.



The full guide should be done in two weeks, with descriptions of the bangods, their servants, how to appease their great wrath, and instructions on ritual sacrifices that may be given to each as a way of thanking them for their service.

Note: No, this is not a troll. I am doing this.

I feel like this would be a ton better if there was actually something here instead of a "I'm totally going to do this cool thing." If you dont do it I will be sad, because this could be pretty great . ^_^

I wanted a definite list of banlings. This is not going to be an overnight project.

To Bibbit: I am totally going to do this. There isn't much I can show for it, but I want a general idea of the characteristics of the banlings from people who have been here longer than me.

Did you just call Mani and the other MiR's banling's? I am offended.

Maybe there is something I am missing, but I thought the heirarchy was Admin->MiR->Banling->->MiB

I think instead of a banling servant guide we should just make a Harem appreciation thread.

TL is a lot like a country. I'm writing a state religion.

Because it'll be fun. And I need the practice.

Even so, there's quite a few here that are active that you could add.

It is my hope that this religion will be allowed, as it exists as an extension of TL.

Obviously the appropriate sacrifice to Chill is a Girl Blog.

For KwarK, a pseudo-science youtube link.

For mahnini, make a bad mechanical keyboard thread after he designated the new official one.

If you need divine intervention from Ares[Effort], you should report 3 posts from Aeres, the false prophet.

you're making a religion about the people that are the police in the country you're proposing. the police serve as the executive arm of this country. you are putting police in the pews and behind the podium in the chapel
