    Question well avoided, mario, using your puppet Zlamzambo to do the dirty work of topic-changing. I see right through you!

    Fine we will have it your way, What about the cow people?
    And your stance on picture siggys?
  • edited August 2008
    It seems to me that you're trying to stir up debate where none is needed. I have already stated that I was not responsible for the poll-editing in question, and your inability to provide proof to the contrary means the issue is effectively settled. I believe the phrase "innocent until proven guilty" sums it up nicely. Baseless accusations from fellow admin Stef is not damning testimony.

    I never said I don't care about cow people. But more importantly, the main cast of apple cow consists of cows, not cow people.

    Images in signatures are disruptive and create unnecessary clutter. If you wish to express yourself with imagery, the existing avatar system works splendidly.

    I too heartily dislike images in signatures! I have troubles visiting other forums that have allowed this problem to go out of control. I will wholly support any candidate who keeps this problem at a minimum.

    :holdit:

    I asked Mr. Macjake if it was okay to have an image in my signature, so long as it is smaller than most people's quotes! It does not create clutter, if, it is indeed as small as, if not smaller than, most signatures. Mr. Macjake replied something to the effect of: "uh..I guess so. No one will care".

    Secondly, if you are against pictures in signatures, why do you not, as an admistrator of this organization, disable them? A canadate who will not act upon his beliefs?

    But seriously though, I think Geoff's winning because he's saying less. So apathy (not the member!) wins the race?

    Actually, I did disable them. I think a bug in vBulletin allowed them back in.
  • edited August 2008
    I personally don't have a problem with yours Agentcel, I had a problem with Kioso's though.

    Disable them! No good can come of them.

    One last order of business.

    One for Mr. Geoff Geoko:

    How much wood would a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?
  • edited August 2008
    I still don't like them, regardless of the size. They contrast against the serene order of the boards. No one else uses them.

    Four...

    A woodchuck would chuck no amount of wood since a woodchuck can't chuck wood.

    As much wood as a wood chuck would chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood.

    It depends on the woodchuck. You can't just generalize all woodchucks like that! That'd be racist!
  • edited August 2008
    well, i was referring to one specific sample wood chuck, not the entire population.

    Well, since candidate Geoff doesn't appear to be a regular user of our community anymore, and since Mario's pro-zombie stance definitely doesn't appeal to all of us Orange-Beltians, I think we need a new candidate for State Comptroller.

    I say, Lauren for State Comptroller 2010!
  • edited December 2009
    Since I feel that since our other Orange Beltian comptroller candidates have severely failed to uphold everything we at the OB hold true and dear, I propose a new rise in power. The Orange Belt deserves a worthy ruler of all, and I assure you, you will receive no less than perfect.

    With this being said, I humbly accept my state comptroller nomination, and without any other opponents to challenge me, I suggest we have a very quick election so things may go the way God wants them to be.
  • edited December 2009
    I don't know. Running unopposed seems like a poor way to run an election. I'm curious to know what Mario's stance is on this.
  • edited December 2009
    Just hold your horses, there. I think we all know what this place really needs; a strong leader. Someone who will fight to keep our fine citizens safe from spambots. Someone who will maintain the integrity of these fine message boards we've all grown to love. Someone who won't scare away new members. Someone willing to put their life on the line to protect this special little corner of the internet. Someone like me.

    That is why I would like to nominate myself for OB Overlord. Under my benevolent rule we will bring about a golden age of online community. After all, in these uncertain times, can you really afford to put your trust in someone who might actually, herself, be a zombie? I know I wouldn't.

    I heard that Lauren eats brains for lunch all the time. I read it on the internets.
  • edited December 2009
    The path is clear; we must join the ranks of the rank if we wish peace. Life and government are manacles of the soul, to find peace and happiness we must rid our selves of them both!

    Support the Undead Anarchy!!!
  • edited December 2009
    I don't really find Lauren's or Behemoth's promises to be realistic, or even to be particularly appealing. Perhaps you should both elaborate?
  • edited December 2009
    FACT: Lauren has been known to keep zombies as pets. She has divided interests, and can't be counted on to support us in our time of need!

    FACT: 4 out of 5 dentists agree, Adam is a raging dickwad.

    I hereby throw all my political weight behind Candidate Salsini. Lauren for Comptroller!

    I'll run.

    Why? Because I am British. Who doesn't want to be represented by my suave, tea swilling tones?
  • edited December 2009
    Excuse me, my fair dickwads, I would like to believe that it is indeed I who would be best suited for a political position for power. Zombies are a scourge, but I am not for taking military action on any third world peoples. Sure, Zombies may hate The Orange Belt and everything it stands for, as well as have an unquenchable desire for brains. But out and out murdering the undead just seems amoral, and not to mention a gigantic waste on our money and resources. That's why I propose a very diplomatic solution. I shall tell the Zombies to respectfully climb a wall of dicks, but they'll never actually know I said it because they can't read or connect to the internet, since there is no service provider that would provide to Zombies. If diplomacy, the ultimate warfare, doesn't work, we can instate muzzle policies, and use Zombies as cheap labor. Indentured zombies could be on the forefront of solving our economic crisis. Just think! Zombie mailmen, Zombie chefs, Zombie gardeners, could all be obtained if you vote for me, Socks R. Mahoney, to State Comptroller.

    Now now, you need a candidate who will give you a good speech.

    Let me just give you this little number I came up with after hours of work.

    SCANDAL! RCS has clearly stolen his speech from another candidate. Arrest this man at once!
  • edited December 2009
    This is gonna be a clusterfuck. Methinks we will need primaries, not to mention political parties behind which candidates can rally. Since the hot issue on voters' minds seems to always be policies on zombies, might I suggest Pro-Life (anti-zombies) and Pro-Unlife?
