Edgy has accused notables of bullying newbies.
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.

A bit of "bullying" is good, as mentioned

I think this topic is rather stupid and via observing it all you can see it's quite clear that in certain peoples minds, notables are not actually seen as talented people.
They have been giving this gold name, not because they cheated and signed up as 20 different names to vote themselves in, nor because they are just around and spam the place up like most of the other people - but, because they are note-able.
People take note of their posts and actually respect them. Although, it may sound rather "sad", you actually make friends with these people and communicate with them like you know them. It's like a community in which everyone knows everyone and we get along - kinda.
You're just coming in here with these accusations based on one person. If, a black man mugged me, would I think that all black men are scum? I'd like to think not.

Thats a damn good point. I mean, everyone would agree I know slghtly less than sod about games, but I hang around on FOG because I enjoy the topics, enjoy writing my stories, and enjoy writing amusing posts. Well, amusing to me. And thats all that counts :-)

Yeah, just my point. If you look at the notables, they weren't voted in because they have a great deal of knowledge about games, or anything really... they were voted in because they're entertaining to have on the forums, and they make people smile.
I at least HOPE that's why I was voted in... :0)
Most of us write stories. Those who don't, put down funny topics and things. Rasta writes gaming topics sometimes, but mostly he's just messing around and being friendly with people.
There's no secret power, we're not Gods, we're just a bunch of geeks, stuck in front of computers, that every once in a while enjoy having a laugh.

I can Imagine that. Someone like Little Hedgehog walking round a corner and Grix grabbing her and nicking her dinner money.
When they're cheecking someone! SPAMMER SPAMMER! HA!

Yup. He used to insult us too.
Edgy could be a notable, yeah, but he needs to work WITH people, instead of against them. If he did that, I would gladly vote for him.
