I kinda missed all of it as well. I read the threads and all but never say where the conflict came from. I chalked it up to wanky being a psycho tard.

He voiced his opinion (of which some of made sense, but not all), Grimm and Pro (I think it was, maybe Joe as well) voiced theirs (some of which was crap, but some wasnt), but unlike most people who either brush it off as a difference of opinion, or put together a cohesive argument, he went mental and had a breakdown.

I agreed with some of what he was saying, and thought that some of the stuff that was then thrown back at him, by people who admitted to never really reading any old GL stuff, was bollocks, but most of us have learnt that you can never change someone elses mind when its made up, you just walk away and forget about it.

Wanky did walk away in the end, of course, but not before he made himself look like a complete cunt, even to someone who thought he was right (for the most part, but not all).

Did he like the Parallax explanation....the yellow bug.....or was he against it?


I don't know how I felt to tell you the truth. It was kind of cool having Jordan as a bad guy. I like Kyle so it was easy for me to see him as bad. Now that he is good again I'm kind of meh.

I cant remember all the details, but I believe he liked the concept.

Simple fact is, whether it was a good idea or not, its only a fucking comic book, and is not worth having a total and utter brain meltdown over.

It would be like bsams going postal after someone said they didnt like the Big Lebowski, or you losing your mind over someone not liking Kevin Costner movies.

Yeah, you like em, but they are only entertainment, not life or fucking death.

Joe and Grimm (and Jerry, I think) all got into a discussion about Parallax and Jordan. Halo thought it was a fine idea, and thought the whole idea of Jordan having a breakdown in the first place was out of character. Joe, Grimm, and (somewhat) myself tried to explain that Jordan's history was littered with legitimate signs that the character could be written towards possible said end. Halo disagreed vehemently, but was (at one point) willing to just let it be okay to disagree. However, not one for tact, he didn't put it very clearly, or came across too brash. Grimm and Joseph began a character assassination, as are the rights of the RKMBs military posting branch. We all go through the fire, and thus Thomas would as well. Unfortunately, Thomas neglected to check the manual at the door, and became quite unwound.

He created a second thread, one devoted directly to the new argument that Joe and Grimm were assholes (which is still under some investigation). In one instance, Joseph let off a zinger or two I thought entirely hilarious. So, I posted my agreement with his cunning wit. Halo, however, would have no part of this. He would not recognize friendships/relationships created on these boards. He did not believe I would post in support of Joe Mama due to humor. He did not think what they had said was funny, and thus declared it so. I was then labeled a "sycophant" (which took a few tries, but he finally got the spelling and use of the word correct) and a "suck-up" (which was, more or less, the same thing...but Thomas didn't seem to mind the double-phrasing).

Then..at the height of the full-scale assault on his frail online persona, Halo left these boards. Forever.






Five Months Later...


He returned with his buddies from another board to "defend the morals and good character of Whomod's Daughter!"(TM)

Strangely enough...whomod himself did not show.

The mystery continues to this day.






Three Weeks Later...

We destroyed their boards with my very marvelous "hacking" skills, and the former Insurgents vanished into a fragmented, locked-down forum.

To this day...some say that you can still hear the howls of humiliation and wailing of pain, drifting along the old docks near Rob's Blog. Some say that it's not the ghosts of Rob's ex-lovers (as some believe), but of the living, shamed souls of those that dared attack these hallowed and revered boards....the neglect of their friends and children haunting their every breath......

I really feel sorry for that Halo chappie, and as a huge rock star of some repute, I feel it is my duty to help him.

What do you think he would like most?

I have a few ideas, but they generally revolve around anal sex.

Why did Halo try to join the navy?

He heard a news report about some seamen being discharged.

I just made that joke up.

It is almost like writing great songs that last for generations.
All you need is the material to work with, and that Halo chappie provides us all with a vast source of material to draw on.

Now if he would like to "draw on" my phallus, I am sure we would both end this night on a happier note.

Wow, that's like the complete opposite of what happened in reality.

I made an argument that Joe and Grimm civily disagreed with at first but when I stuck to my guns they through a hissy fit. Joe (twice) said he wasn't going to talk to me anymore because I disagreed with him. When I proved Grimm wrong about an example he used he stormed off as well. Joe then had a major meltdown. What really pissed me off though is that when Joe through a tantrum "NOBODIES TALKING TO YOU HALO" brain dead ass kissers like Pro, Harley, and K-nut just covered up for him.

That's the truth. In hindsight I should probaly have let it go but I can't stand sycophantic enablers. They're the only thing worse than cunts like Nowhereman.

You should know better than that, rob. Wanky has a tendency to *logout* when you throw hard questions at him. He then waits a day or two before logging in again, hoping the question will be forgetten by that time.

Wanky, PLEASE ask me to back that up with examples!
