AAHHH! Help! Entmoot is PINK, the Mooters are going nuts, and it's making me even more damned crazy than I already was (and it's making me swear, too)! HELP MEEE! HEEEEEELLPPP MMEEE!!! *pounds on computer*
Poor CBG; he really is caught in the middle here. * Evil grin* I have nothing against him, really, either; my personality and his personality just don't mix that great sometimes. However, I appreciate his moderating job, even if I wouldn't close some of the threads he does if I were a Mod. But the Moot needs someody to get rid of spam, so CBG isw quite useful.
But seriously: AAAH! Sorry.

i have...shall we say...mixed opinions of comic book guy. i know he's only trying to do his job and everything but he could be a bit more considerate to newbies. it does take quite a while to figure entmoot and how it works out and he could be slightly more considerate.
also he does tend to single people out. i.e me. but that was only on one occasion.so i shan't dwell on it.

yeah, CBG is just doing his job, but he's a bit delete-button-happy (like trigger-happy). and wasn't nolendil one of the others besides tater who was messing with the status markings? go ahead and close this thread, CBG, it was fun while it lasted.

Well, I have no problem with how he succinctly informs people that their thread is redundant by closing it and saying so, but he certainly tried to do me in here: http://www.tolkientrail.com/entmoot/...&threadid=3526

I mean, who uses logic on the internet? It's an abomination, if you ask me.

He hasn't closed this thread yet - he's a nice guy afterall!

Comic Book Guy used to scare me at first, but I like and respect him now for cutting back the "habit" You go, CBG.

CBG is cool. A little eager to close threads, but thats just 'cuz their redundant. Also very anti-newbie, but that makes him even cooler. All administrators are cool. (Do I get brownie points now?)

Why is it called a brownie point anyway?

Maybe it refers to the little branch of girl scouts...they need to be good to people and they get patches for their brownie sash. Or maybe it refers to real brownies...the better you are, the more you get!

CBG has always been nice to me. He's cool.

The brownies were named after mythical creatures who romed around European (specifically British and Irish) countrysides doing little good deeds.

And I suppose the Kudos were their rivals in good-deed-doing?

Or maybe - CBG and Tater are the same person. Has anyone seen them together?

Yeah, but if you didn't praise the Brownies for doing little chores, did you know they terrorized your gardens/farms and house in return?

How did you catch on to our little secret *whispers aside: we'll have to "deal" with this one*

Poor Comic Book Guy.... You shouldn't go around calling people evil. This forum is very well organized, and let Comic Book Guy do his job. How would you feel if someone started a thread calling you evil?

Personally, Rosie, I'd laugh my head off. But that might just be me. My sister on the other hand, likes being called evil. If I say to her she's evil, she just grins equally evil. She 's also left handed.

But I have to admit, compared to my sister (I'll probably be banned for this)CBG is a sweet little pink bunny.
