I just wanted to say that it's probably wrong to give in to the kidnappers - won't that just cause them to make higher and higher demands? Unfortunately, in order to post this, I am giving them exactly what they want! Tricksy!

You're right, we can't let the terrorists win!
Ah! But here's another post! Such trickery!

*sigh* What kind of idiots are these Entnappers? If you're going through so much trouble why ask for only so few posts? On my other forum we regularly have 1000 post in one night-quests. Now THAT counts as a ransom.
(We managed to complete the quest only twice though, so to keep it realistic, I'd say demand 750)

Maybe the kidnappers don't think Treebeard is worth that much to us... (Although if we complain about the ransom being so low, who knows what they'll ask for next!)
Does your other forum have an mascotte? If so, I'd watch out for giving the kidnappers other prospective victims. |

How are we doing on that post-count since the post-it went up?
And does this one count?

Shame, pinguins are usually protected species.
But I don't see anyone kidnapping a moose that easily... |

You'd think the same about a huge tree... Perhaps he left voluntary and some oaf decided to take advantage by putting up a ransom note? You know, bail with the money before the payers realise the hostage was never really kidnapped to begin with?

Good point on both counts. That puts the Quickbeam hypothesis back in the foreground.

Man... no one is safe from our imaginations... Who knows?
Next we'll be pointing swords at each other (or possibly bows/arrows, depending on preference)...

That's how we do our ACCOUNTING, Earn. Post-its work WAY better than Excel, for like... adding and stuff.

Adding... or substracting?! Like say, a certain Ent?
Maybe we should start to compare handwriting... |

Here's mine for comparison to the post-its on the banner:
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog... Have we hit the 42 posts?

Is handwriting a way of finding relatives? That's amazing, what science can do!
Who needs DNA anymore?
