I mean, really - I’m the Gay Guy, I’ve got one of the longest ongoing and (arguably) popular threads (in Great Debates, no less), I’ve got like over 5,000 posts, I’m one of the top twenty prolific posters, and, most importantly, I fight ignorance.
Sheesh. It gets so a guy feels so unappreciated around here by the boss anymore. I bet Bill Gates doesn’t treat his underlings like this! [sub]Well, ok, he probably does, but he’s richer than all of us combined![/sub]
Esprix
You’ve got all that going for you and you still need “Daddy’s” approval…that’s just sad, Esprix. 
Yeah, Esprix… it’s like “Waiting for Godot”, right?
So is that, like, a legitmate question or a plea for adulation?
<shrug>
Esprix, you are so da man! Look up ‘wisdom’ in the dictionary and, why, there’s his picture. ‘Prolific’? Well, there’s Esprix once again. He Knows All. He Shares All. He is the Man, the Myth, the Legend: The Esprix.
Normally I would not post to this, but the last time I ignored one, Cecil actually came on and welcomed everyone.
ahem
So…
Me too, Me too!
I’m not a prolific poster, or do I have any great debates raging, I am not the Gay Guy but gosh darn it, I’m cute and special (just like my mom says).
Well, Poysyn, I ain’t Cecil, but I’d still like to say “How ya doin’?” to you.
[sub]Me too! I met my wife because of you, Cecil![/sub]
Maybe it’s because you bless the peasants of SDMB with your noble, humble presence and he just doesn’t see the need to try to rise up to your grandiose standards.
Remember, it quality, not quantity that counts.
I’d be surprised after all this if he didn’t come on and say something… I’m sure he peruses the message boards (being so smart he probably has no other life) and his name sitting right there in front of him… I mean come now…
Of course I know this because… I’M HIS SECRET LOVER
…wait, no I’m not.
poo
I think it involves a large roll of unmarked $100 bills.
-sniffles- I missed when he welcomed everyone… I know he did it once when I was around… I really need to hang around more… catch up with people and stuff…
On the off chance Poysyn’s right I made up a question in this area.
Wouldn’t He most likely be in the forum about comments on His column? Yes in fact 44 of his 79 posts are there.
Well in that I do have two suggestions.
one - He’s got 79 posts so he should hit 100 sometime next year. You could make it your mission to note every time He posts and when he hits 100 leap to the proper forum and start the party. That might guilt Him into coming.
two - Maybe the singing penis can serenade Him out?
Good luck
Oral sex.
I have heard (ok it was written on the bathroom wall next to a “for a good time call 555-1212” message), that he responds very well to mass quantities of Circus Peanuts[sup]TM[/sup]. But he only uses them for scientific experiments, something about nuclear physics.
I dunno Esprix, but I’ve been here for more than a year, have over 4000 posts, you’ve even quoted me in a GD thread (when I pointed out to Wildest Bill that if public expressions of sexuality bothered him, his first attack should be at Mardi Gras vs. any gay pride Parade I’ve ever seen), and you’ve yet to say ‘hi’ to me.
::sniff sniff, lip quivering::
Maybe, Spree, he’s a closet Rice Queen. Maybe you have to be a cute Asian boi.
Or maybe, just maybe, he doesn’t want his life to be sucked up by the boards; he must resist the pull of reading our wonderful and witty comments, our great debates, our flames…
Gotta wonder what the guy does for fun.
Obviously, wit, charm and boyish good looks have nothing to do with who he welcomes, otherwise I would surely have been welcomed by now. There must be some kind of algorithm you’ve got to solve or something. I’m guessing here, but my answer is “47”. We’ll see.
Nahhhh…it takes a secret ceremony at midnight, it’s so arduous that only a few people have had the stamina to survive it…nineteen of them to be exact, nineteen chosen ones…

I’ve heard Cecil really digs humility and modesty.
Osiris, I’ve found that double posting in this kind of thread is a sure-fire way to garner his attention. Perhaps you should try it!
Does he still do surveys on the boards, or did I miss them all?
