SweetRein's Sugary Restrained Random Banter #89

SweetRein · 10-13-2007, 12:28 AM

The Rules. You! Read these!

In order to try and keep these threads from becoming unmanageable, some rules have been created, and they accent the forum rules. Please read those first.

1. Spam. For the purposes of RB one word posts should be spam everywhere. Likewise, posts that are nothing but *actions like this* should also be considered spam. Quality of content trumps speed of response.
2. Ditch the "competition for control of the universe". It has ceased to be funny, and often branches out into little mock battles that fall into the spam definition laid out above. We've got a PbP section for fights, and even the Town has an arena, I believe.
3. If it's already a thread, don't bring it to RB. RB has such a huge range of subject matter even restricted to the little snippets that probably don't warrant their own thread, it doesn't need legitimate thread topics cluttering it up as well.
4. Stop advertising other threads in RB. Just because these new threads move at speeds more appropriate to a message board than an IM session doesn't mean you need to come over to RB and brow beat people into posting in your latest brainchild.
5. Please stop with single line posts alerting us to your current status -- as in "I'm back." This is Random Banter, not "How to stalk Random GitP forum members."
6. Do not poke, kick or bump the thread. It will move at whatever pace it wants to. Also, please refrain from Captain Obvious comments akin to "My, the thread is fast today."
7. Random Banter can only be as good, or as entertaining, as you make it. Demands to be entertained will fall on deaf ears unless you can add something more meaningful to the conversation.
8. No asking "What's the topic" or the ilk. This is *not* a conversation where you could've missed the begining, it's a forum where the current topic is nicely recorded for you. So read up a bit first.
9. Thread Creator must include the words "Random" and "Banter" as well as the thread #. Try to be concise as well.
10. Every post should contain two visible, legible complete sentences, Subject and Predicate. C'mon, make your old English teachers proud.
11. Remember, Random Banter is not your IM client. If you want to have a back and forth discussion with just one person, look in their contact information for IM details

Anyone found breaking the rules will be sent to stand in the corner and receive a very stern talking to!

Spoiler

This thread is for random discussion, not random chit chat. There is an IRC chat thingy set up for that sort of thing. Not only will you not annoy the people here, you will also help increase the popularity of the IRC chat. It's win/win/win!

With a short kitty bow, I present to you... a new RB!

Yay! New random banter. Here ya go for a bit of randomness.

Artemician · 10-13-2007, 12:51 AM

*Awaits influx of random "Ohmygodanewthread" posts.*

Honestly, I don't know why a thread remake should be a cause for conversation. To me, it's just as spammy as a one-word post.

Castaras · 10-13-2007, 01:13 AM

* First page boogie *

And man....I'm tired. I don't normally get up this early on Saturdays. Why did I get up at this ungodly hour?

Hannes · 10-13-2007, 01:19 AM

I don't know why you did, but I do know that I woke up because my siblings were at the same computer. Screaming. At each other.

"IT'S MY TURN TO BE ON THE COMPUTER!" "NO IT'S MINE!"

Saithis Bladewing · 10-13-2007, 01:19 AM

I'm glad I have a computer all to myself.

Castaras · 10-13-2007, 01:21 AM

@^ Agreed.

Yay for me and my brother having separate computers! No more arguments!

...Except when I'm wanting to listen to my music, and he's wanting to listen to the musak of his game... Silly little brother...

Rawhide · 10-13-2007, 01:22 AM

Woohoo, another courage gem. That makes 18. Also, the treasure map was to another 1min of sand, now up to 24 mins.

Hannes · 10-13-2007, 01:26 AM

Actually... We have two more computers. The problem is, we only have one set of speakers and one monitor >_> Not to mention keyboard and mouse.

Rawhide · 10-13-2007, 01:28 AM

Oops, spoke too soon, another minute, now up to 25 mins.

Not sure why I need all those minutes, completing the last level is so easy to do quickly now.

Lord Iames Osari · 10-13-2007, 01:28 AM

Belldandy blesses this thread.

You are obsessed with that game.

Although I can't really talk....

Hannes · 10-13-2007, 01:30 AM

Iames. I am afraid. Afraid of gravity-defying hair

Baerdog7 · 10-13-2007, 01:36 AM

Well, that's what lots and lots of mousse will get you. And you wonder why women take so long to get ready?

Hannes · 10-13-2007, 01:38 AM

Well... They do spend more time on other stuff than hairdos.
Mostly.

EloquentRune · 10-13-2007, 01:40 AM

I thought women took so long to get ready just so that us guys would agree to whatever they said so that we could just leave already... geez... I've been waiting 20 minutes I thought she said she was just going to change her shirt...

Castaras · 10-13-2007, 01:41 AM

Now THERE'S an idea....Hadn't thought of that before, thanks ER!

Hannes · 10-13-2007, 01:46 AM

...Good job, ER. Now there's a rampant female on the loose, who will do anything to make men accept what she said >_>

No offence, Castaras ._.

Hehe, nah.

I'm not that cruel.

Now to tell some of my friends...who probably would be that cruel...

Rawhide · 10-13-2007, 01:49 AM

Castaras: has your drow been moused?

Hannes · 10-13-2007, 01:50 AM

Why are you using invisible mode ._. It makes me all confused ._.

Because it's fun!

*is whipped by his girlfriend*

It's not like girls can just give a wink at a guy for him to follow directions... is it...?

FdL · 10-13-2007, 01:54 AM

Congrats to the blue kitty for the shiny new thread.
And again thank you all for letting me have one, it was awesome ^^

Hannes · 10-13-2007, 01:59 AM

The wondrous beverage that is coffee... *sip*

Castaras · 10-13-2007, 02:04 AM

Blech. Coffee.

Hot chocolate over coffee or tea any day.

OO... ooo... My vote is for tea but I cant make any because my Student Advisor has all my tea making equipment... i love tea i have 23 kinds of loose leaf in my dorm room people think i deal drugs.... it is really late hehe

Arameus · 10-13-2007, 02:06 AM

Well, the good news, guys, is that eventually the girls grow up and stop acting like that, making for relationships of mutual trust and respect. Right? Right? ... Oh.

Hannes · 10-13-2007, 02:11 AM

Coffee isn't yucky! Coffee... With cream... And whipped cream... And chocolate bits on the whipped cream... And sweet, sweet, Irish whiskey syrup... -drool-

Having said that, I also claim that I eat the instant hot chocolate powder, because it plain rocks, and drink tea excessively. Hot beverages ftw!

I do not like being compared to such things, thank you.
