I see... not "we would have enjoyed your company" or "your verbal talent would have been a great asset", but "we could have used you". I feel so... special.

Actually we would have enjoyed your company. The more the merrier.
We were going to lay seige about 8:00 eastern time. Although I hadn't talked it over with my generals yet.

Ah, but it's all in good fun... I assume. Then again, so was my thread expounding why I should be made moderator of the Entmoot Archive. And I got shut down. Yeah, you guys are real pals.

This is the first part of the IM chat on page 1 of this thread. This was before Tater was invited in.
You have just entered room "Entmoot Revolt." JDevil1735: by the way the other thing - tater's title is "banned" but when anyone else was banned they didn't have "banned": as their title Rogue Elfin: i'm inviting those who got AIM and this is the meeting chat - we leave this open until everyone gets here JDevil1735: cool. Rogue Elfin: when they say they've got it and PM me their screen name i'll invite them JDevil1735: cool - that's what I thougth too - that way we don't get anyt infiltrators? Rogue Elfin: mark is on, but no replying.. Rogue Elfin: contact him: hilsabub JDevil1735: who is mark? Rogue Elfin: markeldel, or however you spell his nick Rogue Elfin: ah, he's idle Rogue Elfin: nevermind JDevil1735: okay JDevil1735: whgo do we have so far - hobbit is getting concerned. Rogue Elfin: everyone on your list JDevil1735: cool. JDevil1735: commouse1: Arian is now a moderator foolJDevil1735: oh is she? :-) grateglorfindel has entered the room. JDevil1735: I don't know if tristan is even telling me the truth grateglorfindel: hiya JDevil1735: hey JDevil1735: joining our revolt? Rogue Elfin: alright, this is where we're having the meeting, but we've gotta wait for everyone to get on JDevil1735: is tristan still online RE or did he block me? Rogue Elfin: i blocked him - i wouldn't know :-) JDevil1735: oh okay grateglorfindel: okay, im kinda dumb, who is tristan on entmoot? Rogue Elfin: HOBBIT grateglorfindel: oh right grateglorfindel: whos side is he on? JDevil1735: admin Rogue Elfin: the evil side! grateglorfindel: yes, the evil side JDevil1735: he's still on - he blocked me. JDevil1735: I checked using my secret name JDevil1735: glorfindel - did u add that stuff to ur sig? grateglorfindel: yep JDevil1735: cool - I didn't check - but I noticed some people started to. grateglorfindel: i just put reinstate tater, i figured that was all that was needed to prove our point grateglorfindel: HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!! Rogue Elfin: you know, JD, GG will make the perfect spammer :-D JDevil1735: I know Rogue Elfin: look at all those exclaimation points! JDevil1735: we need spammers Rogue Elfin: lol Rogue Elfin: he needs a ranking JDevil1735: well sergeant general hilsabub has entered the room. JDevil1735: ur sergeant general so name him Rogue Elfin: ah, yes, another hilsabub: hello grateglorfindel: hello JDevil1735: hey Rogue Elfin: markedel = hilsabub hilsabub: yes its my sister's :-) grateglorfindel: oh righhtt, hiiya markedel Rogue Elfin: Glorious Glorfindel = grateglorfindel grateglorfindel: grateglorfindel is sad i know, but did u know that your screen name can't be longer than 16 characters long! Rogue Elfin: the meeting is going to be held here, we just have to wait for everyone to get AIM JDevil1735: I didn't know that. Hobbit knows how many people can be on his buddy list (160) Rogue Elfin: they've all gotten PMs hilsabub: ah and what exactly are the aims of this revolt? I'm mostly annyed at the means of the admins, and the closing of numerous threads for no reason grateglorfindel has left the room. grateglorfindel has entered the room. grateglorfindel: gggrrrmachine cut me off JDevil1735: do u think I should invite tater? Rogue Elfin: we are going to at a selective time directly after the meeting spam the board all at once with new threads grateglorfindel: it may get strong languaged! Rogue Elfin: go ahead JDevil1735: no - cursing though really - we should keep it clean. grateglorfindel: how long do u reckon evryone else is gonna b? hilsabub: and will this do anythign but get us banned? Would it may more sense to have a collective withdrawal from entmoot-not merely a boycott but an exit? Rogue Elfin: they can't ban everyone, that's the point hilsabub: after all there are other forums to use grateglorfindel: exactly Rogue Elfin: and if they try to, they lose their members grateglorfindel: valuable ones at that! JDevil1735: tater is going to make us avatars Rogue Elfin: they're paying money to keep up the board for us to post on it hilsabub: what I mean is what would be the most effective while leaving the least rancour behind. I have nothing personal against the admins, I'm just...conservative I suppose Rogue Elfin: if they get rid of us, they waste their monet grateglorfindel: and all the interesting posts and threads will dissapear Rogue Elfin: leaving it wouldn't would - we gotta hit 'em where it hurts grateglorfindel: gradually, evryone will lose interest hilsabub: wouldn't it make more sense to go off to other forums-entmoot in exile as it were Rogue Elfin: ack, forgive the typos grateglorfindel: mwaaaa ha ha ha hilsabub: like gondor without the cool towers grateglorfindel: sorry, just seemed like an evil laugh moment! JDevil1735: tesseract is now a mod. :-) Rogue Elfin: that's it! we'll designate different people to each forum to flood! JDevil1735: no no - we have to keep it to general hilsabub: why? Rogue Elfin: why? hilsabub: flood all of them and make them thematically approriate :-) grateglorfindel: really? is tesseract a mod? Rogue Elfin: jesus! he is! Rogue Elfin: this has gone too far! grateglorfindel: this is getting out of hand grateglorfindel: we must strike NOW JDevil1735: stay in general with the stuff. grateglorfindel: while we still have the chance Rogue Elfin: We must wait 'till our forces ar strong! grateglorfindel: who else is joining our force? JDevil1735: i say wait too. Rogue Elfin: i Rogue Elfin: i'm waiting for 4 people to get back to me hilsabub: 4 people is rather small. How many people would actually go for this? JDevil1735: RE contacted a bunch of people grateglorfindel: okay wait, im still on chocolate high u know!! JDevil1735: well keep ur chocolate hi going grateglorfindel: well strawberry ice cream wanted to get involved Rogue Elfin: the meeting is to find out who will go for it hilsabub: and why does it matter that tesseract is a mod? JDevil1735: because he shouldn't be - it's a slap in the face. Rogue Elfin: true grateglorfindel: a painful one too hilsabub: I lack the arcane entmoot knowledge I guess, I prefer admins to be neither seen nor heard Rogue Elfin: invite Darth JDevil1735: well I asked before? JDevil1735: tristan just told me that they have a spy hilsabub: lol JDevil1735: everyone up against the wall - we need to interregate people Rogue Elfin: yeah, i bet *rolls eyes* grateglorfindel: who do u reckon it is?(if they're telling the truth that is) grateglorfindel: tee heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, i need more chocolateeeee hilsabub: why does it matter? If entmoot becomes intolerable we abandon it en masse to another location. It shouldn't be harrd to find a forum, hijack it make it in our own image :-) Rogue Elfin: Minas Tirith dot com! Rogue Elfin: :-D JDevil1735: yeah - but they'll just get more people. we need to infect everyone like a virus Rogue Elfin: the prefect place! hilsabub: well entmoot was one of the better forums I've found. The best actually, not because of the great layout but because it was tight grateglorfindel: just send a bulk pm to a LOT of pple JDevil1735: that's cool.

Dang. Looks like I missed some fun here today. Oh well. From what I gathered from reading the other threads, it was only a minor revolution. Maybe it would have been fun if I could have been a revolutionary for a day. Bet it didn't have anything on Pink and Purple Day, though. You guys will have to think long and hard to come up with something to top that.
But it's still a year until next April 1...

Actually most ppl seem to think this was head and shoulders above Pink n Purple. I'm curious how the older users think this compared to my first major prank, ya know the defacing of the moot with ben's face?

Someone change my title to "Most Gulliable Person on Entmoot" please. I can't believe this...I was seriously worried that entmoot would be torn in two or something...grr...

This was unique in that it wasn't immediately obvious as a prank. Defacing the board is obvious.

I guess this is one of those "had to be there" things. I missed it, so I guess I'm not really qualified to comment. Those Tater/freddy schizo episodes were funny though. I was rolling around laughing at Tater's rather extensive vocabulary. Huzzahs to April Fool's Day!
