Well, my knighthood is coming soon, and what a ride it has been. It's great stuff here, it really is, even if the speeds of the 2/3 section vs. this one are giving cause for concern. And perhaps soon we are embarking on a new role-playing journey that will make this place better still.

I read through a lot of the old back posts in the GDF... wow, guys! This place is nothing less than hardcore drama! You'd pay to see it if it wasn't free... with your King Jedi's, and your EJs, and your queeq searching (how are the drugs and tulips, buddy?)... amazing. I wish I'd been here then.

Perhaps we can get some of the oldies back?I know UBH is just AWOL (though quite what he'd make of our religious discussion I don't know), but I'm sure we've lost some great posters for various reasons that probably don't apply now... we know what people are like ( I mean, I virtually had a blazing row with Merc and I still miss him)... or perhaps some have gone because they thought this place wasn't goping anywhere, which I'm sure isn't the case. I can bring some friends in, though I doubt if they'll be as committed as I am. But I'd like to meet some of the people you've sadly lost along the way...

So I'd like to say a big thank you to all you guys for providing for with so much fun- both in the posting, and the backstory... as I say, real-life soaps are better. People may decry us for putting so much into a kids sci-fi fantasy films, but as fans, we know what we are doing...

So, thanks to the whole Council who made me feel so welcome, big thanks to Gundark and, of course, queeq, for so quickly accepting me into the main sociality of it all, and apologies to Finti and queeq for the unpleasntness with the names... thankyou, thankyou, thankyou...

On behalf of everyone here at the forums, may I just say a big fat chunky "YOU'RE WELCOME"

Ush, You are a glutton for punishment!

Hmmm, I didn't know we were so entertaining..

Oh, I dunno, beats watching paint dry.

No problem Ush everyone can miss spell names. I really enjoy your posts they are so well written. You have great insights and strong opinion written in a "calm" way.
Happy days!!!

Yes Ush, you ARE a posting god!!!

Ush, as you know, I appreciated your posts from the moment you started them. I for one will do my best to keep the soap opera level on this board at a maximum. So there's lots to look forward to.

Once you get your knighthood, you can get a job at the Tavern anytime.

And that's it.. well, it shoud be, anyway.I gladly accept this honour you bestow on me, and promise to defend and uphold the Code of the Jedi.

Thanks guys- I love you all.

Any news on the role-playing idea?

Ok, THIS should be it. Sorry for the repeat, non-edit post, but, you know special occasion...

Someone recently said to me "I just don't want to be everyone's soap opera."

I'm still unclear on what this meant.....

It probably meant that he/she had come up with a cool sound bite,probably in the middle of the night, and wanted to use it somewhere

Yeah, sounds like it doesn't it...

And a cool sound bite it is.

Oooooo, thanks, Ush. So glad to hear you enjoy our wretched hive of scum and villany.

Well, we did do our best.

Yes, my master...

Hmmm...now I don't know what to say...:/

Then don't say anything. That way everybodies happy!!!

Just so that everyone knows you're a talented smarta$$..

I have talent. When did that happen???

My, Dimmy, RC certainly is rammy today. Ready to take on the empire yourself, RC ?

Nah, just ready to take on Dim, and WIN!!!

I wouldn't even try it. I defied her once, I am never going to do that again.

And I'm sure you got everything you deserved.

Oh yes. And I'll never forget. Better be careful, RC. I speak out of experience.

You have experience of Dim? Hmmmm, DO tell.

Read my earlier posts. I cannot speak of what happened after that. It's.... it's........ *runs away*

Well, talk about revelations....

Boo-hoo... I'm not credited as a knight on the front end... and I told my friends I would be... perhaps I have to prove myself further...

Seriously though, guys, what's happening on the Role-playing? Poor old forum, all cold and alone...

Yeah, Raz does need to update the front end now. Guess you could drop a note in the suggestions forum...

I'll get on to that on the next site update.

Congrulations on your knighthood! Only 750 posts 'till you get Jedi Master status

queeq wants his name in lights like on the beginning of the Bullwinkle show.

Welcome Ush, I am Xizor. I don't think you know me but I guess I must have a minor roll in this soap opera. If you read back away you could find me as the womanizer with a big ego, but they threatened to kill me off(joke) so now I've calmed down the macho BS and am intent on chillin, making good posts and being a cool, guiding influence. What are your opinions on Falleens and the Dark Prince specifically?

.. Xiz is the Casanova of this here thread..

OH, and RC..you really should listen to queeq...the girl always wins

I thought the Wookiee always won.

What's the difference?

Dim honey, you won't win, well not THIS round anyway... And besides, if you try you'll regret it. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but maybe the Wednesday after that!!!

Welcome fellow Knight.*Finti puts blade on Ush`s shoulder, well at least a coctail sword*

Careful, he doesn't want to loose an arm...

Oh wow...everyone's saying hi... hi back!

And KJ and Xizor have now said hi as well, mighty champions of this place.

Um...my opinions on what and what? I think you have the advantage on me there, Xizor.

But Ush, you have soooo many. We like that.

Ush a knight. You make me feel very proud. Enjoy your new status, it'll get you free coupons and gifts you don't need.

Ushgarak, you are 1 in a million!!!

No, one in 2 million.

NO, one in a billion! I hate oneupmanship....

One in 2 billion.

On in a Trillion times infinity squared!

Hey! I don't want to be TOO rare! I'll never meet another me, otherwise!

Hmmm, meeting ones self, what if you met the anti-Ushgarak? You could shake hands and self anialate!!!

Oohh, flashy

Yeah, but you'd probably take out half the sector too!!!

No, Ush could only meet his opposite in the Bizarro world. And since this isn't a Superman thread, I'll let that one go. Hehehe.

By the mayhem invested me by the great and powerful Raz, I congratulate you and salute you on your knighthood ! May you soon reach 1000 posts and take your next step into a larger world ! (Of continuing chaos and mayhem, of course) Come on over to the tavern and lets celebrate !

Didn't we have a title left for him: Disorder? Trauma? Panic?

Awww, you said I was Panic.

Ush, your opinions on the Dark Prince, Xizor. We are one in the same, so I guess that means your opinion of me. Nevermind. As for Wookies, Gundie you're getting them mixed up with the Falleen.

Oh, go run your Black Sun.

Panic is RC...so, who's Pain, Sorrow, Fury...

Well, I think you're Fury, or is that Furry...

Oh yeah, Xizor. He's the man! I've conferred in others to gather some opinions...

I understand you have a certain... way with women. Ooh!

Well, you have my respect. As for your people, I'll jusge them on an indiviudal basis. But I won't judge them on theor colour... and well I should not etc.

And green is a nice colour, very natural and sooting and all.

Hey, RC, you rejected the title of Panic. You even threatened to leave the boards if we would call you that. So I thought it was up for grabs.

I hate to sound stupid... but I'm a Knight and everything, and I don't know who's who on that picture above... could someone fill me in? I only know you as vague net people; it's so sad...

Of course, the soap opera mystique may be destroyed if I know you too well...

For you Ush, I'll be happy to take a short break from creating mayhem here in the GDF to take you on a scenic tour of Dimmy's masterpiece.

Left to right (which makes me first of course )
Gundark, Xizor (Our Dark Prince), Darth Daft (with his little chicken friend), The EvilJedi (who has left us, I guess), Ratcat on the speeder (we left him in the dryer too long, thats why he shrunk ), next is the lovely and talented Dim, the guy with the eyepatch is my illustrious Sith Master, queeq, and on the far right, missing in action, is UnknownBountyHunter. From the four corners of the earth, we've all come together just because of George's "little space thing". Amazing.

Send your pic in Ush, Dimmy will squeeze ya in there somewhere. We're missing finti too, but I think he's sending a pic.

That's very kind, but I don't think I'm quite big enough here yet to be sending my picture in to be included with you good folks...

Hang on. Where the hell is Raz?

Raz is in the dinner (he wouldn't cough up a pic)

Ush if you want to be in the pic just get me a picture of you..I'm still waiting on finti. I don't think I'm going to get him and JO in until I get fint's pic...

Finti was supposed to be sending me his picture but I haven't seen it yet. As for Raz, well one of these days I'm gonna snap him with my digital camera!!!! If I can find him that is.....

I know I was supposed to send you my picture RC, but I have just gotten the before (shaving) picture. Ned to develop the new film before the after is here. with Live around that shouldnt take too long, we taking a lot of pitures of her.
Patience people, dont rush in where angels fear to tread.

Ush, you're big enough for me to be up there. Come one, man, join us.... or die.

Well, if you put it like THAT... I'll try and get a good shot.

YIPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

You cute little Jedi you...

Where? Where?

Well I wouldn't rush now Finti, I won't be around for a week to do anything with it, and then I'll have to send the scan to Dim for her to do her thing.

Yes...good pictures people!!! it makes things soooo much easier

Green is sexy.

Well Dim, maybe you can take a better one of me then I won't have to be a midget any more.

Hey people, how are you doing, personally in a manner that you wont realise my life as ever is complicated and perpetually full with plenty to do and yet having said that I still find time to come and do this and as such it obviously has a reason some where. Sorry this is just a short quick drink at the bar simply on the grounds that Ush suggested that I drop on by, but as siad its just one of those days. Hey I'll come by on Monday and wait to hear a few stories. Until next time have fun.
As always...

OK, now I AM confused...

Don't worry, you'll get used to him.

The bar is a little way away from here, buddy. Look for the the 'Jabba's Underwater Tavern' sign.

Well zareil that is just one hell of a sentence there.

We have a new service though: deliveries. He can have a drink here if he wants to.

Served by a non eu member

Ooooooooooh..can I be the delivery girl?!

Why not? Looks like we finally found some use for you.

Yeah, but you have to wear this bunny costume!!!!

Oh, great idea, RC. What's your size, Dim?

Oo Oo, I know this one!!!!

Errrr..... how come? Or don't I want to know?

Cos you ask the question, if you're lucky you get the answer....

So what IS Dim's size?

Hmmm, wouldn't that be impolite for me to reveal.

Only if it's huge.

Nah, she has a nice shape!

Obviously, you know. I trust you.

But it has to be a PINK bunny suit with sunglasses.

We're back to that stupid energiser bunny again.

And in MY thread as well...boo-hoo...

I'm going to post some more role-playing ideas. Time to get the ball rolling on that one...

Definately, and don't feel bad about the thread. It happens all the time.

(Gundark points finger at queeq) Ah, not by my hand !

Awww, don't come the all innocent!!!!

Well, it's up! Please check it out...

Heck this thread was only a thankyou anyway, Seems a bit gauche to get territorial about it...

You said you liked this soap opera. I just wanted to give you your money's worth.

Most impressive Ush, must impressive.

Where? Where?

Ending the insanity....

queeq, check out the suggestion forum.

Bump

err...why?

May be someone suggested something

Hmm....looks like it got opened again on the transfer.

oh...gone are the times when one could have a convo with a few members...

Raz..remember when u pm'ed me and fitch, after I joined, about that little problem that we were over posting ?
Don't think anybody'd notice now...

How the heck did this get back up here? Tell you something, it really cocks up trying to keep a sesne of history of this place when a thread like this gets catapulted back to the front.

Raz told me to

Meh, nvm.

Hard to fathom why I cared about being a Knight, actually. I think it was 250 posts, and admittedly posts were far more scarce back then, but even so...

they were..I got noticed by raz for going crazy posting after my first 70 posts or so in a week..that's like well below average nowadays..

And these days, I agree with Raz that 'earned' titles are a bad ideaa. Oh well, how we change with time... heck, this thread was pre-Edna! I remember her posting in the NEXT thankyou thread I made.

still, the oldies should get rewarded

I find it funny though that in the months I was away KMC changed so much....disturbing even...

idd..yerrs..what counts as oldie ?

Yeah give 'em a comfy chair and a mug of horlicks....

every regular member who joined before me

heheh...b**** j/k

To all the oldies.

Have a Wrecked trailer, a rocking chair, a shotgun, and a can of beer.

May you be yelling at kidts to "Get off my lawn!!" for many years to come.
