Is it just me or are bans and thread locks getting more common?

I've never seen such a Mod presence. I one of the pre-requisites for this Mod Beer drinking weekend is for the Mods to post as much as they can to weed the one's they want to ban.

the mods seem to enjoy making remarks about others' sexuality. I think they have some deep-seated issues *cough* *wink* *nudge* *waits for mod quote involving "**"s* *runs*

Has there been a changing of the guard? I mean we even have popups (amd ad, that previously would have been killed in 24 hours).

There has not been a changing of the guard, you are just seeing an increase in locks and banning because there has been a decrease in the general IQ level lately; as well as a distinct fall in the maturity level of the people posting here.

We mods are about to have one of our annual "See who gets banned" parties. We sit around drink beer, and thow darts at a projection screen with all the members names on it who seemed to have ticked us off in one way or another.

Now, you gotta ask yourself one question, do you feel lucky....punk, well do ya?!?! Your name could be on that list.

banme then, my usename says it all, ban me. I hope this ban will help someone win the prize of banning the most people

OK

We think Round 1 will begin this weekend. Depends on if we have enough darts and beer. After a few beers, we tend to loose more darts than ban members.

He he, most mod responses I've ever seen in a single thread, anyway, my sig is ready for this weekend;)

And it's copyrighted, I'll have the RIAA & MPAA after anyone who tries to use it.

Mod - Can we pay $ to put other member's names on the list?

You ?!?!?! PAY??!?!?!? Last I heard, you are so tight with money you would squeeze a penny until a booger popped out of Abe Lincoln's nose.

Mod Squad

SERIOUSLY pwned!!

:D

:beer:


P.S. edited the spelling ;)

ROTFLMAO

I have just been pwn3d so badly that 10 future generations will STILL be pwn3d by the AT Mods.

Thank you for making my life complete :)

P.S. This means war!

What weapons will you use? Daisy Red Rider BB Guns picked up at the local Dollar Store? The only reason you have those is because you had a $.50 coupon that you could use on 2 for Tuesday. Or perhaps the slingshots you got at K Mart when they sold everything for 99% off because they were closing down the store.

Remember, we posses the ultimate nuke button.

Gunnery Sgt. Mod

That one was actually kinda lame. :(
It was still better than the first one....I give it a 7.....maybe 7.5


We will sleep better at night knowing that we have increased our standing with you........................NOT!

I've been gone way too long
I'm ticked
Where the hell is my machete, ah, there it is


Castrating Moderator
Good thing you found it....you would need something big like a machete to lop off my nuts. Now you just have to catch me.

Now all I have to do is figure out how to chop them off without blinding you in the process

CM
See....you're getting better.... although something like "Now all I have to do is figure out how to chop them off without cutting LordJezo's nose off" would have been better.

Look here shinerboy, if we want any more lip from you, we will just get it from LordJezo's zipper ;)

Mod Squad
See....that was the best one yet. I knew you had it in you. Now just ask Jezo to take it back outta ya.
