  • MarkG and DanQ... Shamed!

    I just noticed on the old off-topic title page I dug up from deep in my hard drive (see here) the proliferation of 'The truth about...' threads. It has come to my attention that amongst these threads were two started by MarkG and DanQ respectively. These are so obviously copycat, spam threads, and I think it is only fair that our administrators award themselves a much overdue post count reduction for this terrible feat.

    If you've got no-one, and I've got no place to go, would it be alright? Could it be alright?

    Iain, the links aren't working. I particularly want to see that Earth 3030 Thread...it may be our only remnant of the great Earth 3000 story.

      Yes... sadly the links will not work. The files will have long gone from the ACS server...

      What did amaze me is that the ad still works... typical.

        The funny thing is i can remember you were a newbie, Iain. Remember that thread where you told the board about Stu's crush? and he came charging accross the street to beat you up?

          Anything before November never really happened...
          Das Wasser soll dein Spiegel sein
          Erst wenn es glatt ist, wirst du sehen
          Wieviel Märchen dir noch bleibt
          und um Erlösung wirst du flehen.

          The water shall be your mirror
          Only when it's smooth you will see
          How much fairy-tale is left for you
          And you will beg for deliverance.

            I think I know what you mean, GP, but I'm not sure... man, that is going back. That would be late 1998 at the latest. And yes, we were all newbies once...

            Oh, and he didn't succeed.

              Will someone whose been on apolyton a bit longer then me tell me what the deal with those threads were? I have no clue what your talking about, and the links have all been re-vamped, so I can't view the original threads...

              If it is true that MarkG and DanQ were cought spamming, then I say we do the same thing to them that they would have done to us... Ban and post count reduction!! . If they refuse to ban themselves, then we can strike a deal with Ming, or just act as if they were banned and ignore them all together.

                adaMada takes a seat in the Judges chair that just materialized, and turns towards Ming, who is sitting the the lawyers chair next to MarkG and DanQ.

                "How do the defendients plead?"

                No, seriously, MarkG, DanQ, you've got to respond to this hiddious accusition!!

                  btw, will someone please tell me what the 'The truth about...' threads were really about?

                  Also How do you save threads to your computer?

                    In the file menu of your browser one of the options should be "save as...". Use this to save an internet page, such as a thread, to your own computer.

                      Yeah, I'm surprised that they haven't responded yet either... maybe they refuse to sink to our level.

                          Thanks! In the past when I have tried to save pages, the 'save as' has been blanked out. I now realize that you have to click inside the page a few times before netscape realizes what you want to do.

                          Thanks again .

                          btw, does anyone here really think that MarkG/DanQ will respond?

                            No. However, since I posted this, they probably will, just to prove me wrong.
                            main(i,_){for(!_||(--i,main(i+2,i["FHhhTBFHdhTBFBQT\2TBF&]zRF$hh*:FHhh+&FBIsbDF"]));
                            i&&_>1;printf("%s",_-70?_&1?"[]":" ":(_^=_,"\n")),_/=2);} /*- Mark -*/

                              LOL

                              These topics were created before the OT started to be moderated...

                              Sorry.
