Fruision? Image Is that a real word or did you make that up? Image I’m racking my brain but the only alternatives I can come up with are fruition or fusion. So which is it? Or is my vocabulary just bad and it’s a real word I’ve simply never heard of? Image

it just happens.

It seems I'm always late for the good discussions... Good debate guys :)

And yes, although I am not too happy that Saturn was banned, I sort of saw why, and well, it won't be the same if she isn't around to paint her throne and glaive yellow with pink polka dots... but then again, there's always AIM.

Anyways although it's rather late, I disagree with the Wall of Shame idea. If someone was banned for something stupid, nobody cares, and if somebody was banned that was around for a while (dp, Hotaru) then there is no need for a reminder as to what they did wrong-- we only have the good things to remember them by. Or in some cases, bad...

We have to respect Buck's decisions, since Buck is often so busy with the rest of the site that he usually has a REALLY good reason to come to the message board and ban people.

Am I making any sense? Or am I having a blonde moment? Oh wait, my hair isn't blonde... a umm... blackish-haired moment? Hmm... *checks hair* :eek: x.x

Something to think about

Today we add another "Bassied" member : Aragorn Returns :(

Well I probably should not discuss this matter anyway. But AR short lived on GB forums, perhaps should give us - as member of GB forums- more thoughts to memorize all the Forum rules. If you don't want to memorize them, at least read it before posting *SIGH* Short time before that a member got "Baassied" for posting some promo thingy :( The funniest thing is that member only post was that promo thingy - Don't he/she even bother to read the rules before register ? :mad:

From my observations, AR sometimes walk on thin ice by giving some "radical" suggestions and post some "radical" jokes. I guess he finally cracked the ice :(

I feel kind of bad for AR. I checked out the thread. I'm sure he was kidding around but I think he took it a bit too far. Maybe a warning or something would have been better.

Is it just me or are there more people getting banned these days than before?

I'll miss AR. I liked that guy...and AR, if you are lurking, you will not miss my moma and you did not like her. ;)

anyway, a toast to him and his petty insults. :)

EDIT: @Thorin, yeah, I think the last month or so has been a heavy banning period, but also, as the population of GB grows, that attracts more people and eventually the number of members is multiplying like bacteria ;) . And so, of course, is the number of members who act innapropriately and have to be banned.

Also I think because 2 regular and active SYM members have been recently banned making things look a lot worse.

Until now we had few regular SYMers get banned other than the DP incident(few others too then) and Baasie who was kind of active, I guess. Sleep will know.

Thorin, I think the reason is "There's to much profanity on the material he posted" I've read the post before it's closed and before All Mighty Buck put the tag on him. And IMO the post was ment for joke only - but since it contains too many profanity, he's got the tag :(

<EDIT> Baassie was part of GB forum not SYM. he's kinda like in the genesis section of GB :)

Baassie wasn't part of SYM, SYM came to late for him. :)

As for AR, I cannot say I'm surprised. From spamming your Momma in a whole list of topics to todays incident, something was bound to happen. Buck gives us a lot of leaway and some of us will take it too far and choke ourselfs with it.

Love the new avatar, Weasel.

Yeah, AR was pretty funny most of the time, but he also went too far a lot of the time. While I'll miss him, same as I'll miss SS, he did have it coming for a while now.

'Bye, AR.

BTW, call me stupid if you want (*cough*to get doused in flaming shine*cough*), but I still can't figure out that Vale O'Wry anagram. Could some one PM me the 'solution', per se?

Vale O'Wry anagram
?

Vale'o'Wry was an alter ego. So was Melosh-Tar. They were banned and always had some wierd stuff in their profile.
Like in the registered:"a long time ago". Nobody can edit that other than Buck.

Some of the older members would know better.

LOL Thorin you sure got a sharp memory. But let's let the past is the past :)

I do admit Melosh is one damn fine bartender and a warm inn keeper :D :D

Vale was one of my favourite member in the SYM, and I miss him. :( He was so much nicer than the original.... He was even kind to Weasel, unlike the *remained one*, and supported Weasel during the trial by giving his character reference. :D

(If you still don't know, give me PM.)

So it is an anagram after all. Thorin made me uncertain fo a second. :rolleyes:

Whoa, AR is gone now too? And to think I just made an avatar I intended to offer him (since the poor shmuck didn't have one of his own). What did he do exactly (just point me in the direction of the topic), make one too many "yo' Momma" jokes?

That show has to be the worst thing to ever hit TV (And that includes Weasel's Short Stories airing nightly on WEAR Channel 3)
