  • Happy Birthday Osama bin Laden!

    Hey, he's 49 today! Well, that's what the Apolyton database says...

    I bet some moderator swept the dirt under the carpet and let the job unfinished!

    Good thing you included the proof

      Ah - but he has a post count of zero - what's the betting on DL?

        OBL was a Civ 2 MP player but he left when Civ 3 was released because of all the n00b westeners. Not heard much from him since, but he says he is quite famous.

          yeah, they killed osama bin laden and OBL and a bunch of other osama DL's a long time ago. the mods just permabanned them because they didn't want people to use the name again

            Then why is it still in the database?

              Because they're just permabanned, not deleted. Same reason why YYYH and Stewart Spink still exist.

                Yes, we've read that already, thank you ixnay. What I was asking was what is a handle that no one will ever use again, and that had all his posts deleted doing in the database?


                And in case you didn't get it, I started this thread to point out that the creator of this DL even bothered to put a birth day when registering.
                Hey!
                This is a good one to put in the You know you spend too much time at Apolyton when... thread!
                ...you put a birth day in your DLs!
                What a bunch of wackos!

                  Is there a Saddam Hussein? I'm sure his birthday was a month or so ago.

                    Saw Benito Mussolini's birthday on another messga eboard. Thought it was funny.

                      The question is - did they get them correct?

                        Now that would be scary, bothering to get the date right.

                          Not *that* scary...

                            so that no one else can ever use that handle again. if they got deleted, then hypothetically, I could make a OBL DL. get it now? this way there will never be a post by osama bin laden on the boards ever.

                              No - at least this person didn't.

                              Osama was born in 1957, which would make him 45.
