Hi. Monkey_man here! You may have noticed that I have been banned for starting the trend in stuffing up the chat forums. Fair enough I admit I started it, but the original post was in the 'SR Site Bugs' forum and was meant to alert the SR staff to the fact it could be done. Here's the original post:

"As you can probably tell, you can enter HTML into the thread title. You can do it with the taglines as well, although they are too short to do anything offensive."

Oh my God, how offensive is that!? As far as I am concerned, I highlighted a serious loophole in the whole SR chat system. Sure it lead to some other people mucking about, but it made the SR staff aware - as it was intended to. If you want me to stay banned then fine. I spend too long on here anyway, I've got branches to swing from.

This was Monkey_man

Yeah I know the fella - lives on the bad side of ghost town, has a carrot habbit. Believe me, he's not house-trained!

You might be thinking about the wrong one...y'see, I contacted him in a seance, and he said his arch-rival Gozmi is there, wreaking havoc on all who befoul him.

I totally agree. Hypocrisy in it's purest form.
