This isn't really satire, but whatever.
People have been kinda stupid lately with their posts. They're straight out insulting people who regular the forums, and pretend like they'll never read it. THIS IS THE INTERNET, EVERYONE CAN SEE WHAT YOU SAY. A lot of shit has been said about me lately, which I could care less about, but I feel like you should be warned: on the off chance that you DO say something to piss me off, I'll subsequently be forced to end you. For those of you too dumb to comprehend what I mean by that, I'll translate further: make me angry and your future is cancelled. A threat taken from a Nickelodeon cartoon should be simple enough for even the dumbest kid at Etowah, so I feel my point is made.
An another note, QUIT ASKING TO BE MADE A MOD. Everyone on the forum can't be a mod, so quit trying to be "special". Honestly, I think we have too many mods now. Kinda like how we have 21 leadership in a 70 person marching band...THANKS MOTE.

On a side note, that "don't piss me off" thing applies to everyone else on the forum. Let's try not to start feuds here, so try not to piss anyone off. For example, you've extended my "Uh Oh, You're Gay" rant to an extended Marcus insult fest. That is a BAD road to go down. He checks these forums once and a while, and it would be nice if he didn't find 4 pages of Marcus-jokes. Once again, my point is made.

Tyler, that would be true if we didn't know each other >.>
About the Marcus thread in the gay forum thing. Lucco, you are an admin, and I even took the time to say that you were the sole admin to this board. You have the power to delete those posts.
I know you are upset about the posts me and Jimmy said about you and your mod powers. It just doesn't seem fair to make someone an admin (ADMIN, not a mod) and then they are hardly active and when they do get online they make Duke Nukem posts. I understand that we all have busy lives and this site is pretty much down the toilet but attempting to create a new topic or attempting to continue an old topic is better than randomly saying you have balls of steel. I know you don’t do that anymore but I’m basing this off of what you have posted in a whole. You can’t compare Mote’s leadership to the leadership here. Sure, maybe A LOT of the active members are moderators, but they don’t do anything. They only have it for the title. It’s more of a reward for being active more than anything. In reality we only have three moderators, and that’s me, you, and Robert. Also, you don’t see our “leadership” going to other boards giving orders. They don’t have powers outside their specific board to be doing that, and it’s just pointless. However, in marching band, people not even in leadership are bossing people around, and specific leadership (such as brass captain), are allowed to give orders to other sections. I know this is starting to get rocky, but it all comes down to being power hungry. I am NOT talking about you, I am talking about everyone that wants to be a mod. Since I am friends with pretty much everyone on here, and I like playing favorites, I have to compensate and give people modified moderating powers. Please don’t take any of this the wrong way. I am just explaining my reasons, which is pretty much what you asked for when you created this thread. I tried to be as honest as I could, because I know if I made a bunch of bull shit you would have been more offended than me telling you the truth.

Nice long post thar.
I honestly don't care if you guys don't think I should be an admin not. I'm aware I've neglegted the forums most of the summer, but I blame that on my Kingdom Hearts addiction and the fact that my laptop broke so I have to go all the way to the basement to use mah interwebz.
My point on the mod thing was more of a passing comment on how I still find people who beg to be mods annoying. I didn't really mean to draw a parralell between the forums and band, I was just taking a shot at Mote, who I despise just as much as I despise Stallings, if not more.
I JUST WANT YOU GUYS TO KNOW, I LESS THAN 3 YOU ALL. ESPECIALLY MICHAEL WATSROBE.

METAPHOR: The forums are like a stack of pancakes, and spammish stuff like my Duke Nukem quotes are like syrup. If there isn't enough, the pancakes get all stiff and dry AKA the forums get boring and stodgy. If you use too much, it overflows onto the bottom and the bottom pancake gets saturated with syrup, resulting in an awful pancake AKA the forums get too stupid and there is no real substance to the conversations anymore. We need to find that perfect amount of syrup that makes the pancake stack ever so delicious AKA keep it fun, keep it awesome, but still keep it mildly meaningful. I LIKE PANCAKES.

Pancakes are my new metaphor, so get used to me mentioning them a lot. Remember: don't be the bottom pancake in a syrup flood.

Good. I'd have to shame you if you didn't endorse my pancake metaphor that can be expanded to represent all things, including life itself. PANCAKE LOVE.

Haha, like my tortilla chip metaphor that I used to explain types of girls to Chandler...
Think of boys as tortilla chips. So, the salsa represents a whore. While she's hot and spicy, if the chip stays in salsa too long it gets soggy and falls apart. And even if the chip exits the salsa, it always leaves a part of itself inside, but the salsa doesn't care.
Cheese dip represents the sweet, caring, loyal girls. When a chip is with the cheese, the cheese gives it a protective coating. When it stays there for a while, the chip is stronger because of the cheese, and the cheese has something to hold onto. When it's been there for a long time, it's almost impossible to get off, unless you dip the chip in salsa. Then, it falls apart, leaving parts of the chip in the salsa with parts of the cheese still attached.
