Nope!
Yeah, I know, I’m just showing off. I’ll disappear now.
FireUnderpantsBoobs, just two quick things.

I really was kidding but my sarcasm didn’t come through because, well I screwed up.

I’ve been on the board a lot longer than just a year. I had a different name. I was on it over at AOL. Not that I think that it proves intelligence or anything- just wanted to clear that up.
To put my own part of this at rest, I will say it clearly. I was kidding. I was kidding and I wasn’t clear about it.
The end.
Sweet Walter - newbie by day. But by night well, a newbie then also. Not even distantly related, neither in spirit nor in blood to WallyM7, he was just a role model.
I shall remain a newbie till the Great Cecil himself comes down from on high and anoits me with the Holy Oil of the Wise Ass™.
I promise to read first, post second.
I promise to not open any old threads, it was a discusion at a party I missed.
If I have a question or want to start a thread I will reasearch said subject. I AM concerned about the bandwidth that would be consumed by the flame pouring down.
I will not flirt with … (what the hell am I saying?)
I will not pick a fight with Cervase or Scylla or (insert Pit champ name here)
I will always encourage red headed women to stay that way.
This is my nebie creed, so help me Wally.
(that http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=20722 thread nearly cost me my job from rolling around on the floor)
Holy cow. I have just gotten myself an education.

I would also like to officially put myself up for adoption!
I love 'em.
New perspectives keep the board fresh, which more than makes up for the occasional ass clown that wanders in here.
Does reviving this thread mean I’m still a newbie. It just seemed Mahaloth wanted it to die so bad, that I had to resurrect it.
Yep, it should have stayed dead. There was no reason to revive it.
I was waiting around to see what the us/them line was…guess I found it…I’m gonna go and post a bunch of times to a thread that I know nothing about! Mwahahahahaha!

Um, actually, DUDES! I was looking for that thread on the greatest guitar player of all time. That one totally needs to be rehashed again. I posted and the tread died. Bummer.
Who’s Wally?
SoUth PArk RuLes!
Just being a wise ass.
This is the thread I most wish I could have taken back. Redboss started an entire Pit thread about this one.

Make sure you read my response to the thread at the bottom of it. After I posted, the thread nearly died. It always bothered me that no one(almost) acknowledged what I said there. I guess people liked the idea of making me evil more than the reality. I can understand.
Man was I shocked about how pissed off people were about this thread. I’ve been on this message board since 1998 and I don’t think I’ve ever sparked a firestorm like this. It was always just supposed to be a joke(it started in MPSIMS, not the Pit) and then everybody got offended.
In the end, this thread and the Redboss one made me a better poster. I used to come down hard on people who made mistakes and did other things that annoyed me, but now I am more careful about people’s emotions. Sure, I wish the whole thing never happened, but I don’t here much about it so I can live with it.
Seriously, though, you can’t imagine how shocked I was to see this thread again! 
Mahaloth and I are now good buddies and exchange letters (and underwear) frequently. So do as he said and leave both of us and this thread alone.

If you want to meet a damn good newbie look no further than andrew dupont’s thread in the Pit.

Now, that’s a good newbie. Very funny(Wally was an old poster, by the way).
Yeah, Redboss and I are good friends. But seriously, buddy, stop with the underwear. I mean, if you hadn’t worn it before, it might be ok, but seriously.
I think I’ll close this up.
