I just want to say to those

<< This is just a stupid Forum, nothing said here means a damn thing. >>

Til someone says something to you that elevates your ego to super hero status, then it means everything to you.

Nice flamebait post Red. I commend you for the blanket insult of most of the community. I salute you with both middle fingers fully erect.

Hamburgerpimp · Jun 25, 2001

I don't know why so many people take sh1t seriously in here. Who really cares? It's the goddamn Internet. But, I have to agree with Steve a little on his post.

<< Anybody that is into XTC is OK in my book. >>

I'm amazed you remember my posts about XTC.

My auntie is like you, the Dragon Lady of the family. All the kids who can't be discipline by their own parents are [beep] scared of her. Even her dog (no breeding whatsoever) will listen to her. All it takes is a look from her. She'll make the kids go stand and face the walls, she even tells her dog to do it too. LOL

<< ...and also would like to say that if 95% of the forum members here (myself included) would have posted exactly what Red did here, they would've been insta-banned. >>

...but if WE posted something like that, would anyone really care? Come on, Red Dawn is an l33t member, people respect what he says (I do anyway). If FreeFrag posted some big flaming post, I doubt any of you would care or take notice.

Hey Dude, it was all about a $20.00 bill.j/k >>

No, No, that simply can't be. Only $20? Now I know you're lying. Money is tight around here so there's no way my dear mum would stoop so low as to accept only $20. I'm sorry but I think you must have me confused with someone else on this forum. Maybe there's a Puma or Tiger or Lion or some other cat type person here at anandtech.

Have you been trying what I told you? I know it seems like a long trip back to "nice-ville", but with my help I know you can make it. Would it help if I gave you a hug?

C'mon.......

Let's go.......

Well don't look at me like I'm frickin frankenstein, give me a hug...........

Hey Compuwiz1, there is only ONE middle finger...!

So red, where am I, i think you flamed me in a thread once, don't remember why...

Edit

ont think I have any mods on my side, was banned twice, once for a second handle(a great one too) and another time as the man with fast birds before the official release date...

SirFshAlot · Jun 25, 2001

hey, Red, maybe a little late, but congrats on the Elite Status

And thanks to all of you who entertained me in this thread by inquiring where you fit on Red's list.
It's great that you care so much of His opinion.

Red Dawn · Jun 25, 2001

<< I think it's funny how people will shoot off their mouth on the internet, but if they came face-to-face with whoever they were bashing, they wouldn't have the balls to open their mouth. >>

Unless you were one of the 6'3" 350 LB Bench Pressing Freaks that Russ mentioned in an earlier thread a month or so ago, I'd have no qualm getting in your face.It's all about mind over matter. I don't mind because you don't matter! Ahahahaha

<< Til someone says something to you that elevates your ego to super hero status, >>

I know you are speaking from experience Stevo. As humble as you try to be (Two women in one episode at a motel comes to mind) it must be tough when others create threads talking about what an awesome trader you are. It's amazing that you've been able to stay so humble when praise for you seems to roll of the lips of others like mornig dew off of a grape leaf on a cool spring morning in the rolling foothills of Napa Valley.

<< I salute you with both middle fingers fully erect. >>

At your advanced age Stevo it's amazing that you can get anything fully erect.

<< Red Dawn, it seems to me you want people to stop whining, and so you decide to whine yourself to tell other people not to whine. >>

Now tell me, does this sound like I was whining ?

<< I just want to say thank you as I would never have this opportunity to flame so many Bumble Fscks in real life because they are for the most part shut-ins. When this Forum was created over 3 years ago we didn't have the pleasure of so many AOL Types to insult. For the most part this place was Populated by interesting individuals who have gone elsewhere because they didn't have to tolerence that I have >>

It sounds more like a demented thank you note to me.

bigd480 · Jun 25, 2001

serious question (i've only been a member for a year)... what did Red ever do to merit "Elite" status?

not that i'm questioning, it... i just wanna know why...

SirFshAlot · Jun 25, 2001

what did Red ever do to merit "Elite" status?

That's one of those concepts that goes beyond mere mortals' understanding.
It's timeless.
Red is Elite. Always has been.

The rest of us insignificant posters have come along for the ride to shadow his Eliteness. We pled to be suitable followers. He took us in, and bathed us in His glory.

Red Dawn · Jun 25, 2001

<< what did Red ever do to merit "Elite" status? >>

I have Super Powers.

Mikal · Jun 25, 2001

Bah! The only good thing about Red is he doesn't like ultra conservative religious fanatics!!

nitrousninja · Jun 25, 2001

Two things Red Dawn: 1: Cook the meat BEFORE you eat it. 2: Get some sleep!

Nice post, hilarious!

bigd480 · Jun 25, 2001

OK now i'm convinced that Red administrates this board and all Elites are him posting in cognito...

Mr. Admin, is there a way to filter out posts from certain members?

Differ though our opinions may from time to time, it cannot be contested that Red is one funny sob...and I dread to even ask what his "Super Powers" might be...

BoberFett · Jun 25, 2001

I don't think some of you understand just how much work it is to be a curmudgeon.

Red Dawn · Jun 25, 2001

<< Bah! The only good thing about Red is he doesn't like ultra conservative religious fanatics!! >>

I can think of another good thing about me. I'm not you. Of course I can say that about everyone else too.

Mikal · Jun 25, 2001

If you were me, you'd get laid more than once a decade.

I think its rather unhealthy to spend your time looking up the times someone else posts myself..... :Q

<< Did your mommy hold you enough when you were a child? >>

No but your mommy did.

BUWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

<< Bah! The only good thing about Red is he doesn't like ultra conservative religious fanatics!! >>

HA! You must not travel to the FS/FT forum much. He has some of the best deals around. So that makes at least two things he's good for.

bigbootydaddy · Jun 25, 2001

to sum it up:
(portrayed by our fav FOB movie, Coming to America)

Red Dawn: Hello My fellow ATOTers..
ATOT: Hey F U
Red Dawn: YES, YES, F U TOO!!!!

i love all you happy people. cept for GF.

You forgot the 'wannbe' philosophers. There are quite a few here.

TimberWolf · Jun 25, 2001

<< what did Red ever do to merit "Elite" status? >>

He is tenacious, helps alot in the hardware forums (between flames), thrives on troll-hunting, maintains his status as an "excellent" and reliable trading partner, and qualifies as one of the "Old Guard" forum members. [/ego-stroke]

I've been an AT member since around February '98, and Red Dawn was a regular "feature" way back then . . .

I just want to say to those
