Keep it civil.

If I may speak on behalf of my client, I believe he was referring to this particular comment:

You do know sc2 is a newer starcraft right?


Which would be understandably frustrating to read for a BW fan. I think it's a decent topic in in of itself, and i'm certain that My client, Mr. Blubb, was entirely referring to this particular comment when he made his earlier remarks.

If not, well, shit, you already paid the lawyer fees, didn't you?

To be fair, he didn't actually say that BW was the "good" game. In fact, I'm fairly certain he was talking about Hello Kitty Island Adventure.

Hahaha pretty much. There's a reason TL sequesters it all into one thread.

It's as good as it's gonna get on the internet in terms of humor.

On that note though, i'm wondering if the original pics thread (the NSFW one) was removed/galleried? or is it still available in the closed section?

It's galleried because google ads don't allow nudity iirc.

So I'm noticing a trend, but I'm not sure I feel like doing the research to back it up, so I'm just going to pull statistics out of my ass instead. It will sound cooler that way anyways.

As it turns out, a lot of TL users are eagerly anticipating the amusement of watching the page 1k of the ABL thread snipes and bans. Countless (as in, I didn't count, not as in I couldn't) users have martyred in the effort of spurring the discussion to those lofty heights.

However, there is a nearly perfect (with a ~100% potential margin of error) inverse ratio of new bans to discussion in the ABL Thread. After exhaustive research (well, research I didn't do because I was exhausted, close enough), I have determined that in every case (that I can recall off the top of my head, and my memory sucks), the ABL Thread seems to turn into a filler/offtopic thread used when people are NOT getting banned.

In recent history, we can blame this on TheToast, as there is a definite statistically relevant causal link between him being temped and the visible rise of bread puns. We can also blame motbob, as we know he likes to run over people's dogs, and then laugh when they get banned for speaking out against his evil canine genocide.

This moves so slowly on weekends, bleh! Oh well, my post is almost ready. Apparently some people missed ETT's and Motbob's promise to temp anyone who posts on page 1000. (I have no idea how you missed that, lol) So just a heads up to anyone who didn't read the last few pages.....

Oh I have my plans for that page >.

I hope when i get back from the bar we will start having our stakeout to snipe one of the 20 posts.

Edit: I just had a thought. What if the mod's close this thread and spam images to take over the page, thus resulting in a mass mod self-bans. TL would be under seige of trolls for 2 days.

Since everyone has plans for the 1000th page, I think we might as well have a list of ban requests for the page starting now, like an advanced premier show. I wonder how many would volunteer.

As it turns out, a lot of TL users are eagerly anticipating the amusement of watching the page 1k of the ABL thread snipes and bans. Countless (as in, I didn't count, not as in I couldn't) users have martyred in the effort of spurring the discussion to those lofty heights.

However, there is a nearly perfect (with a ~100% potential margin of error) inverse ratio of new bans to discussion in the ABL Thread. After exhaustive research (well, research I didn't do because I was exhausted, close enough), I have determined that in every case (that I can recall off the top of my head, and my memory sucks), the ABL Thread seems to turn into a filler/offtopic thread used when people are NOT getting banned.

In recent history, we can blame this on TheToast, as there is a definite statistically relevant causal link between him being temped and the visible rise of bread puns. We can also blame motbob, as we know he likes to run over people's dogs, and then laugh when they get banned for speaking out against his evil canine genocide.


Are you asking TheToast to take one for the good of the community??


Then I would miss page 1000....

Don't put words in my mouth. I'm clearly telling motbob not to join PETA.


Darn, I was looking forward to saying he got burnt...

On a side note we are closing in Gentlemen.


This moves so slowly on weekends, bleh! Oh well, my post is almost ready. Apparently some people missed ETT's and Motbob's promise to temp anyone who posts on page 1000. (I have no idea how you missed that, lol) So just a heads up to anyone who didn't read the last few pages.....


Oh I have my plans for that page >.

I hope when i get back from the bar we will start having our stakeout to snipe one of the 20 posts.

Edit: I just had a thought. What if the mod's close this thread and spam images to take over the page, thus resulting in a mass mod self-bans. TL would be under seige of trolls for 2 days.


I don't think it's going to happen tonight. Still got like 9 pages to go, which is 180 posts. Maybe if we're lucky it will happen tomorrow. But I've got my post in a .txt file, I'll be ready whenever it happens :D
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

If you want, I could make a post saying "Sucking at SC2 is imbalanced" in the thread before I go to bed. Hell, I might do it page 999 just for shits and giggles.
