I quit.

Correction: Ed is Cecil.

Can’t be. That would make Ed a sock, and that is definitely against the rules.

@Strinka

Too bad it’s not Ed quitting instead.

Aw, shit, am I banned now?

When Ed gets done kicking puppies he’ll be right with you. Here’s a magazine while you wait.

Since Cecil never posts to the boards, and everyone knows, the accusation is silly.

I thought he was out fishing with kittens :dubious:

Cecil definitely used to post on these boards.

Since Cecil never posts to the boards…

Except for those times when he does.

Damn it! How many times must I TELL you people to STOP BOTHERING ME WITH FACTS that do not support my argument?!!??!?!?!?!

[Discordia]

Keep digging, Ed, it’ll soon be gone.

Pussy.

Oooh! Jeopardy! I love this game. I’ll play:

What is…someone who’s too scared to leave his house without his gun?

Bannings can be for varying lengths of time, from one day to permanent. That automatically changes the poster’s title to ‘BANNED’. An admin has to manually change the title to ‘Suspended’ if appropriate.

When Zotti banned me, my title never changed from “Charter Member”.

Giraffe, you were a good mod, and I hope you’ll keep sticking your 18-inch tongue in there as a regular poster. You might find you enjoy the freedom of being a civvy.

A shame, boyo.

[Indyellen]

A shame, Giraffe, and I hardly EVER post in the Pit - but I love reading it. You’ve been a damned fine mod, and I think the extra-tall jackboots should be bronzed.

This has also managed to confirm my decision to drop my paid membership (which has apparently already happened - and I hardly noticed). They probably won’t notice, but whatever.

I’ve had a blast modding the Pit these last three and a half years and want to thank all the trolls, wankers, malcontents, complainers, and potty-mouths who made it such a treat. (You know who you are.)

Ed has made it pretty clear that this is his motherfucking sandbox and he’ll play in it however the fuck he motherfucking wants to and anyone who doesn’t like it can FOAD.

[Qwisp]

Giraffe,I think you been a damn good mod, you made reading the pit worthwhile. I think you have always been fair and willing to admit when you were wrong. I’m glad you are sticking around as a poster. I guess I’ll never have the privilege now of receiving a warning from you.

[Risha]

I’m sorry to hear that, Giraffe, as you were my favorite moderator. I’m glad you’ll still be around, though.

(Hell, three years modding the Pit - anyone would need a break.)

[ivan_astikov]

I was always a little disconcerted by the idea of a jackboot wearing giraffe, but I’ve gotta admit, he sure wore them with aplomb. Still, I’ll be just as happy seeing him in a comfy pair of flip-flops.

One of the good guys.

[Muffin]

Anyone up for starting a “Welcome Back Giraffe” thread for all the ladies who have a crush on him?

[Illuminatiprimus]

I salute you Giraffe - your efforts in the Pit have been sterling. Welcome to the ranks of the great unwashed.
