I've driven along the Princess Hwy many times over the years. What a sad tragedy: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-12-27/ho...sh/9286606

@spoRv nah you wouldn't, you would send them a PM and ask them if they want to be friends and by the way can they please stop misbehaving!
Good deal Andrea ... I'm glad there are still a few web forums that support at least basic civility and common decency.
@spoRv ahahaha! But you would never ban anyway anyway you always like to see the very slimist glimmer of good in people.
@Jetrell Fo: You Were Not Banned On 2017-12-28 00:59:59, For The Following Reason: i don't dislike you. - spoRv
@BronzeTitan ... indeed. Apparently I have superpowers that I was unaware of, lol.
I've been thinking about doing a restoration of The Terminator sometime in 2019... does anyone have the European clean master thereof?
@ Jetrell Fo -- Ah, then it's like a badge of honor ... like getting kicked out of all the best colleges!
I too have a few invites stashed for the spleen. I usually invite those who ask for an invite. Only fair since I got a random invite after asking for one on the OT (In it's prime)
I have stashed invites on Spleen. But the problem is since I only have so many I'd feel bad having to choose who to invite.
They've got some pricky staff there and they do what they like even if their rules say otherwise. Reminds me of a place I got banned from not so long ago.
@TomArrow MySpleen is super easy to get into, you're just shit out of luck atm with the locked invites
At least banning for dislike is honest... very, very, very [add some more 'very' here] childish... but honest...
Vinnie created the site. I blew off my steam here. I don't want to go back. Thanks for caring though.
My advice to any current members there ... never unknowingly prove another member is not telling the truth about something stupid ... FFS

Well well ... such glorious holiday spirit at Blutopia .... nothing an infantile little banning can't cure, right? LOL
I don't know why, but for some odd reason I'm having trouble distinguishing between kbps and Mbps in writing today.
I certainly do! Thanks for the generous offer! AFAIK, there's never been an OAR release.
@Chewtobacca it's showing again this Saturday (30th). I can record it if you want
@Bigrob: Wow! I'd love to get hold of that. I wonder if someone capped it or if it will air again.
I hope that everyone celebrating the holiday is having a good one, be safe and enjoy!!!
Merry Christmas everyone! Also as an FYI Film4 in the UK showed The Dawn Treader in full scope instead of open matte like the home video release
@OogieBoogie: "bah humbug" -- Wikipedia :: "A humbug is a person or object that behaves in a deceptive or dishonest way, often as a hoax or in jest." .. The Catholic Encyclopedia: "Christmas was not among the earliest festivals of the Church." .. "Constantine the Great… Constantine can rightfully claim the title of Great, for he turned the history of the world into a new course and made Christianity…the religion of the State." .. "Mithraism A pagan religion consisting mainly of the cult of the ancient Indo-Iranian Sun-god Mithra. ... The 25 December was observed as his birthday, the natalis invicti, the rebirth of the winter-sun, unconquered by the rigours of the season." .. "Cards and presents. Pagan customs centering round the January calends gravitated to Christmas.." Alas poor Scrooge. He was right! ... right up until he had his wits scared out of him by spectres of the night.
It was really just more of the same old people with some newer players added in. It did look entertaining though.
@SilverWook: "Passions are running thermonuclear right now over TLJ." -- Ooo-oo-oo! Entertainment! You should suggest an OT unmoderated area for unfettered entertainment. I would do it myself, but I'm "FanRes - Do Or Die!"
i think i have to regrab all the star wars fanres I used to have anyway, not sure if I still have them
lmao, this sounds funny, sorry, I've never spent any time over there but from reading this it sounds like you have the whole disney hating thing going on over there
Passions are running thermonuclear right now over TLJ. I imagine other SW forums are having the same issues. Our unique roster of recently banned repeat offenders have gotten very savvy at using VPN to sockpuppet recently, which isnt making my job any easier. Things will eventually calm down in a few weeks, at least until the Han Solo trailer drops.
They never needed me to survive anyways. I'm sure SW would heartily agree with that, lol. It's all good. I wish them all a Happy Holidays regardless. Life is too short to let such foolishness get in the way of happier times.
That was my problem really. I wasn't missing much long before I was banned. I just didn't know it until after the fact.
Yeah right. I forgot you've been banned. Well, as you basically said. You're not missing much.
Out of childish curiosity I went to look. What a mess. It makes me even more thankful I was banned for dubious reasons.
I don't go to OT for anything anymore so I guess I'm behind the 8 ball on this one.
When I see people on OT with usernames like "Disney Ruined Star Wars" I know I don't have anything to do with this place anymore. It's just fans fighting over for stupid arguments... Sad.
@FrankT I was responding to Valeyard and Roobee in regards to Frink getting banned on OT.
I don't know all the details, as it's all in a spoiler thread (and I haven't seen TLJ yet), but I'd argue that usage of that particular word is best avoided.
^ ^ We titans live by The Code Of Bronze (the metal, not that other guy) :: An eye for an eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burn for burn, wound for wound, stripe for stripe, life for life ... (I don't think it stops just there but all this typing is wearing me out). Now, where did I put my sword?
"He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named" is a member here, too... so, if he wants to tell something meanwhile, he's welcome - even if I'm pretty sure he will not, as his last visit was more than four months ago...
He lives in my city, so that's about all I can share about that incident. Needless to say that's one person I don't drink with.
The worst example I know of someone overreacting to being offended was an American I know personally who got offended at something another guy said at a pub so he: 1. started a fight, 2. won the fight, 3. continued beating the guy senseless breaking his jaw fracturing his skull and other really nasty injuries, 4. the other guy was put in a medically induced coma, and his physical rehabilitation took over a year. And all because he "offended" him!
Wait, wait. What? Someone at OriginalTrilogy ... was ... BANNED?!? No-o-o-o! How can such things happen in this day & age? It's a sign ... of the jAyPOCALYPSE!!
Well this marks the end of my fan restoration adventures. My computer overloads when I try to build an HD remix.
@SilverWook: It is like Jaws .. in the Sequel it will follow you even to places normally won't be associated with it...
Only because he claimed he was "offended". I had an admin on another forum tell me in private that Americans are the worst when it comes to complaining about being offended at things other people post.
