No..the best one was this pill Batman took, right before the penguin sprayed him with gas to make him unconscious.

He falls over, then gets back up once the penguin runs off, saying something like

"Ahhh thank goodness we took those anti-unconscious-spray pills Robin"

I figured out how to add/edit smilies. I'll do that later.

But did you notice anything different about the list of banned users? :D

They couldn't ban their way out of a wet paper sack. Make me a mod and I'll show you some banning.

What's that? You believe in Jesus? - BANNED
What? You think I've stepped over the line? - BANNED
Indecent, you say? - BANNED
I don't like your avatar. - BANNED
Your username is too hard to say - BANNED
You voted for who? - BANNED
You're from where? - BANNED
You corrupted my wish. - BANNED
You don't care for all this talk about INTPnesses? - BANNED
You killled me. - BANNED
You don't like the taste of pangolin? - BANNED
You aren't in love with me? - BANNED
Hugs? - BANNED
Romantic shit? - BANNED
Sympathy? - BANNED
More posts than me? - BANNED
Don't like the color blue? - BANNED
Just for registering - BANNED

Eventually I will be the only one left. Curiously, my name would still say "Banned" under it, yet I would be the only one still posting. And you all could just admire my ravings from afar without having to get involved.

We already leave you to it. And occasionally poke you with sticks when you stop being so entertaining.
It's like reality TV!

Boo! Depose the elitist dog! Dispel the propaganda! Disobey! Chaos, anarchy, REVOLUTION!!!!!!!!!

:evil:
(By the way, is there an evil-grin smiley that matches the style of the others we have?)

I couldn't find any.

The style we have was really made for a white background anyway. I'll see what I can do about finding some that work on a dark background while still being as similar as possible to what we have now. I want it to look better, but I don't want to change the emotions expressed in previous posts too much.

Hey! Where'd my collection of banned spambots go? :p

And the funny attempt by Noddy to register a second account when I actually had him fooled for ten seconds that I'd really banned him? Ahhh...the memories....

Guess I'm exposed now as a useless data hoarder. :D

That one is archived in my PM box. He was apparently planning to pretend you had really banned him.

Jesin, how about this one? I just stole the little angry red face we already have, and used MS Paint to "turn that frown upside down"! What do you think?

I don't think I like it very much. It's supposed to be a grin. And it's the wrong color. And you lost the transparent background.

Well, give it a chance! It's a concept. MS Paint doesn't allow transparency, though GIMP would if I was at home. What color would you prefer? Yellow?

Post merged here​

How about this (minus the color and transparency issue)?

I merged the above two posts.

And with that i did my first act as mod ;)
Hope i'll prove worthy of the trust put in me, and i am open to commentary.
This is after all the "Admin-Mods-Commentary-thread" ;)

Oh, haha! I didn't think of that!

And no sarcasticalism. Go ahead and split, so you can keep your sacrosanct temple of mod-ness free from the peasant's ignorance and stink.

I don't want to openly murder you, NoID10ts. I would be subtle about it. :evil:

(Be careful about your choice of words, kids!)

But really, what gave you the idea that I wanted to murder you?

You're trying to murder us all, with your pangolin world domination schemes. I'm just waiting for the other shoe to fall.

Plus, love regularly waxes eloquent about the glories of murdering poor little NoID10ts and she made you an admin ..........

:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

....... she made Ogion a moderator! Does this mean Ogion is secretly planning to murder me to?

I'd better go search the conspiracy thread for clues.

Maybe she hired, uhm..., made me a mod to be a counterbalance to these things? Like being "True Neutral" of 'alignment' and being the balancing factor? :D

Deviously Deviant!

Just to give you an idea, I have an account there =P

We're all channeling our evil into drawing though. It's cheap therapy.

"Chim"?! This is not Mary Poppins!
("chim chim chim-er-ee" is part of one of the songs, I think...I've never actually seen it...)

Failed artist, eh? So I was right, that blue skin really is just paint...
Poser. :rolleyes:

That aside...what sort of artist did you fail at being? (Can we see examples?)

I'm going to call you Mary Poppins from now on. :rolleyes:

I had an airbrush art business for a couple of years. Everything I do is dreadful though. I posted a couple of things in the art gallery (the very first posts there). In fact, my avatar is actually one of my airbrush pieces.

But doesn't that defeat the point of a nickname, since it's longer than my actual name?
( -counts the letters in "NoID10ts" and "Noodles"- )
. . .Oh well. You're gonna forget about it soon anyway. ^^

Oh yeah, I remember the airbrushed things you posted. I was actually in awe.
You made me not want to post anything. Jerk.


Onion;;
Just timed it, takes about 53 seconds.
My signature took about 5 minutes though. And there's still something missing. . .

@Chimera: Oh, i guess that's called routine and experience then ;)
Sorry i have no idea for your sig.

Ogion

EDIT: One idea though: You could copy'n'paste the coloured lines before and after your post in a file, and then you need to only ppaste it back into a new post...?

Chimera, what's with specifying the font as Franklin Gothic Medium? Doesn't look any different from the other posts. (Or do I just not have that font installed on my computer?)

By the way, I know how to make the formatting even MOAR convenient than what Ogion just suggested.

Hu? It looks a little bit different to me. I could use something more obnoxious if you want though.
And don't say things like that unless you want to tell me how to do it. Poop head.

@Bori...uh, Jesin:
Yea, right, by letting out the formatting altogether, correct? :rolleyes:

She makes her posts be quite unique and recognizably hers and that is a good thing. I do that with 'signing' every post with my username. Less fancy for sure.

No, that is actually not what I was suggesting.

I was suggesting she could use a template like the one I've attached. It's similar to Ogion's suggestion, but it takes care of the font stuff without re-specifying it every single line.

(Here's hoping there are no newline-conversion issues with the template I'm attaching...)
