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.

Lucky us, eh?
If I had broken the rules then I'd accept it. But I haven't.
But it doesn't matter because I'm still here.

Why wouldn't I?

I think the fact that they've won more than enough games to save them a small fortune in the shops is enough. Why do they need any more recognition?

Some members when the whole Notable thing started used to treat the Notables as gods on this board. Now fair enough, they wanted to be pally pally with the popular guys, but we're all equals on this board.

And if I was banned Special Reserve would've faced legal action for unfair dismissal. We all post our opinions on here, so if one of you said "Game Cube is great" but didn't post anything to support their opinion, would they be banned? I doubt it! Anyway, I enjoy coming here to post my opinions, to be able to have a reason to practise reviewing games, to be able to buy the cheaper games, and to be able to take part in this online community!
But this argument is over now (I hope). I'm still not a fan of the Notable system. I mean, posting my opinion on it has caused this one hell of a large argument! That's what it's done to the boards! Instead of all the console wars topics (some were admittently an interesting read!) and all the other semi-decent games topics, we end up filling the forums with rubbish about unimportant votes and "Copularity Pontests" which are a load of rubbish! I'd rather read one line topics by newbies who are starting out on the board then all the rubbish about elections. It especially gets on my nerves when people post sooooooo many campaign topics. Maybe Special Reserve should limit the number each candidate can do! That way everyone has a fair and equal chance to put their views across, and there is still room on the forums for some decent topics.

Fair enough. Start off with insulting his lip synch. :-)

Well as said earlier this forum is about 'making people laugh' etc, the people who can do that are worthy of a notable vote? Well Edgy and Grix should get my notable vote. This is because this topic is amusing. It also kida proves a point.
The forums are full of arguments.
There are many sensible people in these forums who get on with posting such as Goatboy. But many people argue, and notables often are involed, Grix, you started this off!!
And does anyone else feel the notable elcetion splits the forums in half at all? Personally I feel it does. Someone becomes notable, it doesn't get to there head, but someone will say something, and like a shot, the notables will be there to try to use there 'power' to... well it's something that I can't put my finger on. But it's all the notables fault.
I thinks we should have a supereme leader. A leade who has power to control. This person needs to be friednly and helpful. Pointing people in the right direction without bickering with everyone. I know it will work, so Mr. Tony...DO IT!!
That's my opinions, so respect them
If you don't want to respect them... then respect them
