I want names of notables, and I want proof, backing these statements up.
If I don't get these, I am going to work my backside off getting you banned. You do NOT accuse people of doing things they haven't done, wherever you are on Earth.

Same here. Going to these forums is an escape, a chance to have my

Still... as you said, ending this arguing, I just got all heated up as

you bullied me once Grix, it was the other day i don't think i can go on. You upset me so much :(
:P
So that doesn't count does it?
Good.
"Maybe we get a bit more respect from people but perhaps that's because we deserve it."
This is not a dig at you Ant so don't get me wrong
But how do you DESERVE more respect than most,cos you've won more GADs?? You doing ramarkably more posts?? doubt it, everyone should have the same respect as each other, its only a website for **** sake.
Your not better than me, so why should you be thought of as someone higher.
And i don't see the notables as bullies.
Well until this topic started anyway, with Grix threatening Edgy to be banned?? a large case of bullying there. All Edgy was doin was conveying his thoughts.
Everyone chill out

Can't agree with you there.
Sniper helped make this place what it was, that is why he was voted.
Anyway, he was before your time, wasn't he?
And yet this is not because they have a gold name. It's because to get that gold name they have posted consistently excellent topics thaat have made me laugh, argue or discover something new. The gold name is like a stamp of approval that tells you that this topic is worth reading.
I know that if I read some of Meka and Goatboy's posts they will make me laugh because they write genuinely funny things. And I also know that if they or one of the other notables (Grix, Ant, Sheepy) has posted something serious it will challenge me. The reason that the notables have a gold name is because they aren't run-of-the-mill posters, they don't spam up the forums and they don't insult people. The gold name itself doesn't carry any power but they do because they are what make the forums interesting and worth coming to.
And Grix, your running commentary of a Batman film cheered me up no end on a day when I had mountains of homework and was getting worked up. It made me go and watch Batman Returns and not do the homework at all, which took a massive weight off my shoulders :-)
Leave the notables alone, if any of them leave you will notice because the forums will lose a lot of the substance that these guys bring.
semi-rant over.
Cos its really annoying sniping at people on the forums.
Oooooooooooo Beeeeehhaaaaaavvvvvvvveeeeeeeeee

Yeah, only ponces would be Notables.

Sniper's one-liners rule. :D
He used to insult me too, but I knew he was joking. He's a great guy, why else is he Notable? He's just a bit misunderstood, and lost interest in the forums.
