Re: ... No Fooling! ... For the record, let it be noted that Sachin stoutly refused my overture to somehow turn this "prank" back on the pranker, I guess you guys do like to stick together. Thanks to Knave for his all his mostly thankless service over the years - we didn't always see eye to eye, but I always felt that hands on moderating is why the DC forum became as great as it did - and Knave had a lot to do with that. His work on Fifa boards was outstanding. Plus, anyone who can put up with Meridian all those years has to be "special". Seriously - thanks - and sorry to see you go.
Re: ... No Fooling! ... So, am I the only one who really didn't give a damn one way or the other? It's not like Dubya, Cheney, and Condi all stepped down in unison.
Re: ... No Fooling! ... After all the shit he put up with, he deserves to go out on his own terms. Sachin
Re: ... No Fooling! ... Judging by the posts in here, I'd say you are. Knave's been a part of this forum for long time, and lots of people have to come to recognize his style. Not everyone like it, but it's part of the reason why the DC forum is the way it is. Sachin
wow--it's the greatest, most cleverest, hoaxiest April Fool's hoax of all time!! To quote a great American: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Re: ... No Fooling! ... excuse me, I win. details shmetails, it was a RUSE!!!!! and a total first class hoax, anybody who plans to quit mysteriously on April1 just so logical truth seeking bystanders get sucked in because they know that NOBODY mysteriously quits on april 1 is truly a ruser of the first order. cheers Knave, if we ever meet I'll buy you a borboun.
Re: ... No Fooling! ... I had a suspicion about that ... Oh, no you don't! Here's what you said: It wasn't all a hoax. It wasn't all a ruse. That means you lose and you've gotta drink the drink.
Re: ... No Fooling! ... Shirley, you jest. I would say YES. Knave's style helped shape the board and his vigilant lack of tolerance for trolls kept DC's board clean for us fans to chat without the jealous masses.
Re: ... No Fooling! ... Putting up with Meridian is as simple as knowing what kinds of beer he likes. Which is to say, all of it.
Thanks for everything Knave, enjoy the time off from Moderating, and hope to see you keep posting. -Digital
Well, not that it is official and Knave (as mod) is no more, that means there are three very important, nah--I say critical--priorities that must be resolved post-haste. 1. Which mod will have the assigned responsibility of going after OwenDylan? 2. What will replace the "critters" at the beginnning of each rumors thread? 3. It's now time for a new tagline poll and debate. My nominations: --You'll KNAVER walk alone. --Knaves starve not in the land of fools. Okay, I was just kidding about the new tagline poll. No need to drive any other mods out so soon. And Knave, you'll be missed. Don't be a stranger.
Knave, I'm sure I caused at least one of your headaches along the way. Thanks for volunteering. You do realize however, that if United loses tomorrow, you will have to be reinstated and can never retire again.... But that's not something we need to worry about. '39
THAT we can all agree about. If we lose tomorrow, I'm hopping in my car, driving down I-5, breaking all of Knave's fingers, and using the broken remains to type his reinstatement. No pressure. Ben- When I resigned last year I felt this burden lift off of me. I'm not kidding. Not a huge burden, mind you but it was there always as there was always this little tug to check the boards, see if they're okay. Hope you notice it too.
Oh-well.. I am going turn this thread into The Dean Martin Mod Roast....for a few. On 4/1/05 at 7:38pm..I encountered this jack-boot's Tyrant ways. I was forced into censorship.. =) Such gems were spawned from your Tyrant ways....Just make sure you turn in your key to the Mod bathroom....and kick Topper on the way out. I will give you another classic I made just for you..old-buddy! Cheers! ~worm~
Let the record show that since I made no posts here one way or the other there is no proof as to my believing the ruse or not. "I do not recall Senator."
