An evil (and/or just plain fun) ploy! - Page 2

Elf Girl · 03-26-2002, 11:24 AM

What annoyed me was that they closed every single thread that boldly protested this ugliness.

Darth Tater · 03-26-2002, 02:55 PM

That's simply because I didn't want to deal with all of that (i did leave some threads open) since I was in the midst of trying to deal with the database problems

Laurelyn · 03-26-2002, 06:37 PM

Database problems . . . sure, tater.

jerseydevil · 03-26-2002, 07:34 PM

I'll vouch for Tater. There were database problems he was dealing with.

Wicked massster must not be cute to the newbiessss.

The overweight gollum is right. I did it to screw with all ya'lls lives, and I hope it worked! Yeah, I hate you all! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Comic Book Guy · 03-26-2002, 08:49 PM

The nice thing about that post is that he is not joking.

Darth Tater · 03-26-2002, 09:07 PM

The even nicer thing is they'll never believe that despite the fact that it's true.

that could get scary

Laurelyn · 03-26-2002, 10:51 PM

Very scary . . .

Tater, you really are evil. Is that what you want? Anyways, if you hate us, don't stick around . . . nobody's forcing you to. ANd if you don't hate us, you've just made yourself a liar. Take your pick, I do not care.

jerseydevil · 03-26-2002, 11:10 PM

His whole point of being is to make as many people's lives a living hell as he can. So he's NOT going anywhere.

Nibs · 03-26-2002, 11:28 PM

Can we burn an effigy of you, Tater? If not, could you send me a hair or something for a voodoo doll and inform me where you hurt most?

Renille · 03-26-2002, 11:41 PM

All pink and purple day did for me was freak me out. OK...so I didn't like being called a spammer. But I'm so gullible that I thought it was serious. (Was it? And do you REALLY hate us all, Tater??? I hope not...)

***anduin*** · 03-27-2002, 12:47 AM

I can not get over that people were really annoyed by it. Did you think that it was going to last forever or something? Does no one have a sense of humor? Why not take a break from the Moot for one day, visit a friend that you haven't seen in a long time, or take a drive out to the country or city, or volunteer at a soup kitchen if you just couldn't deal with it?

Khadrane · 03-27-2002, 12:51 AM

It was funny. I loved it. Every year on March 22, Entmoot should change back to pink for a day.

Nibs · 03-27-2002, 12:52 AM

I was perturbed, but not noticably annoyed. Shame on you all.

jerseydevil · 03-27-2002, 12:52 AM

Anduin - And have people risking withdrawal and having to go to EMA meetings and stuff?

They'd rather deal with the Pink and Purple than deal with the shakes.

jerseydevil · 03-27-2002, 01:08 AM

Renille - Well your lucky you weren't a sapling. Because if he had used my suggested title for sapling - you would have been known as a slug.
