Down with the communist regieme of... ohh hey there!

Sort of odd that the VBB got deletions like that. (see Orange's post below) But hey, at least here you got a little Volition icon to feel special about. (*grumbles about not being paid a salary and having a more special icon like Dave*)

I have to thank Orange for pointing it out to me. I came within about a hair's width of doing a spit-take of my beer all over my monitor from laughter. In a perverse sort of way, I think that's probably the neatest way the VBB could close

Now don't be wasting the precious substance known as "beer". Its our continents most precious resource (minus gold, silver, and....TV) and not to be wasted.

To be blunt, probably the classiest thing you guys could do would be to simply leave him alone. Yeah, there's certainly great catharsis to be had in flaming, but all that does is reduce you to that same level. Probably the only truism in the great sewer that is the internet is the best way to be rid of a troublemaker is to simply ignore them. ::shrug::

Thank god

Yeah, probably time to end the flaming. I guess the idea is that on the ship that is already sinking, adding a few extra gallons of water won't be too much of a problem.

So sad to see those forums go. So many good memories there. Though I suppose given its current condition its better to let the place go rather than let it live on in its unmoderated form.

*sigh*

Truly the end of an era.

But I want to have just a little fun, afterall I gotta defend the one guy who can divide by zero! (Stephen Hawking cheats, blackholes aren't fair!)

Anyhow, it is probably a good idea to stop it before the thread gets more out of hand.
