The 11th Annual Forum Poster Awards (endorsed edition)
Lady and Gentlemen, boys and girl, take your seats and put your hands together for tonight’s fabulous cam-whore-cum-presenter.
*STM walks to centre stage and coughs loudly into his microphone as the music fades* I err, I … OWF … The Oddworld Foruuuuums … Oddworld … Lorne, and New ‘n’ Tasty … ehem, isn’t it great. Obligatory Michael Bay reference Yes teddies, hello and welcome to the Annual Forum Poster Awards XI. I must firstly apologise on behalf of the team for not catching the imposter who ran onto the stage earlier, sooner. I also apologise on behalf of Wired who once again could not be here, he no doubt lives on in our hearts, minds and T-Nex’s basement. So, tonight we have the best and worst that our most exalted forums have to offer! It’s mostly the worst, it always is. Hell this place is a fucking dump, but it’s our dump right, and don’t we make sure every new member knows it. Hurr hurr. A few thank you's are in order: firstly to the moderator team for allowing me the honour of running these awards for a second year, secondly to Slogbait for helping me with the code, or whatever it is, and thirdly to myself, for being fucking great. Now, without further ado, we move on to tonight’s categories: By way of nominal explanation, all votes should be cast based on the activity of 2013 alone! Best New Comer and Most Welcome Return should have started posting/returned last year. Dearly Missed Member should not have posted at all in 2012, or since. Members qualify as veterans if they started posting prior to 2008. Procedure and Rules Procedure is the same as it always has been. No nominations and no applications, just vote for which members you think are most deserving of each award by posting them here. Whereas in the past you have been able to private message the host with your choices, this year will not be following in that trend. For your vote to be counted, you must post in this thread and this thread alone! You don't have to vote on every single category, and you can submit more than one member per category if you really, really cannot decide between two or three members. There is to be: No voting for yourself, and no telling other members whom to vote for, whether that's you or someone else. Anyone who breaks these two rules will be trampled to death by ponies Furthermore, contravening of any rule is punishable by elimination of your eligibility to partake in the receiving of any awards. Voting starts right away and will continue for 3 weeks so the results will be posted on the 7th February 2013. Don't post updates of who's winning what and how many votes such-and-such person has. If you spoil the surprise I will personally hunt you down and end your miserable, insignificant life. Enjoy and happy voting! |

Most Changed Member Say what you will, but Nepsotic has come along leaps and bounds since he first joined. |
:
Naturally, I pointed out the various ways in which he was a hypocrite, to which he responded by silently deleting his post. Thanks to Crashpunk for pointing it out to me. As for everyone else, kapteeni13's Facebook page really is worth a read. |
I was fortunate enough to see the post in a window between him liking your comment and deleting everything.
Never seen Chris come across that angry before. I was a little turned on. |
I missed it entirely, which I had expected since kapteeni seems to enjoy deleting everything that happens on his page.
Now I'm sad because angry Chris seems like a very rare thing to behold. |
I've tried being supportive. I really have. I love the guys videos... But he makes every intention to write bad things about the forum and endlessly searches the threads for any negative comments about him. And then wonders why people dislike him?
I'm sorry (I know you'll read this) but the whole thing is pathetic. You've brought this on yourself. Any insult made by us are 100% jokes. "oh kapteen my kapteen" is a reference to "Oh Captain My Captain" HOW IS THAT OFFENSIVE? and the awards are just a joke as a whole. I would suggest just leave us alone and if you can't do that. Then you need help because you are seriously paranoid. I think this is a job for the Moderators. |
Kapteeni is a cunt.
