Flame Warrior voting

[SpankMe]

The Poll Booths are now open. Check the Quick Links pull down for access.

Only senior members can nominate someone for a poll.
Nominees will be sent an email informing them that you have nominated them.
You can change your vote at any time by simply voting for someone else.
When the leader gets more then 10 votes they will find that their avatar & usertitle will change.

These polls will never close so because of this I will soon put in a process to expire votes after a few months. This will give other/newer members a chance to be voted to the top if the current leader in said poll changes their ways. If they do not, you can revote for them again.

[SPORK]

Hey, that's awesome!

Pretty hardcore, must of taken you a while!

Cheers man!

Cue the Spanish Inquisition, Stage Left, with lighters, and other implements of flame....

I guess it now befalls me, as a long-time Kung Fu Master (sadly unrepresented on the voteable warrior list) to go and nominate you lot as Newbies.

On a different note, somebody gave me rep for the monty python argument. What did I say? Smiling nostalgicly

My problem (one of them) is I have no pull down menus at all. Mac OS9.2 IE5 and nada - Gimme a link?

[jrandom]

OK, I'll explain.

'Flaming' is an old internet tradition, involving invective, argument, insults against ancestors to the nth generation, and the occasional truck bomb outside a particularly annoying opponent's bedroom window.

It happens a lot on KB. You just weren't familiar with what it's called.

A posted (or emailed) message along the lines above is referred to as a 'flame'. The posting thereof is the act of 'flaming', the poster is the 'flamer', the target, or 'flamee', is 'flamed'.

You get the gist.

A regular occurrance on any sizeable online forum is the eruption of long sequences of invective, arguments, insults against ancestors, etc surrounding a particular point at issue. These sequences of 'flames' are referred to as 'flame wars'.

The participants in flame wars are 'flame warriors'.

The ha-ha-only-serious 'Flame Warrior' list is a description of the typical personality types of combatants.

[vifferman]

Yeah, I gathered all that.

It was the application of Flame Warrior... umm... awards? I was unsure of.
Howzit sposed to work in practice?:spudwhat:

[Sniper]

That makes sense

[SpankMe]

For those who can't use the Quick Links pulldown, I have added the links to the homepage navbar.

Truuuue- Honestly - it's the $3.5K of upgrading Photoshop, dreamwaver, flash, quark (indesign then), 3d Studio, Freehand, and all my other apps to make it worthwhile. And that's just my licenced stuff ;-) Classic mode is what i already have.

Got 10.4 on the Mrs ibook if i need it.

And I'm happy with the way it's all working. cept for the aforementioned pull down shite.

[Ms Piggy]

Heh heh - that's really funny and it says I've been nominated but I can't check it till I get home! Thats aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaages away!!

[Waylander]

Oh oh please someone label (http://searchmiracle.com/text/search.php?qq=Label) and catagorize me!
Is this really necisary? (sp) Seems to me it would only start more flamewars when someone with no sense of humor gets nominated for something they don't like. Just my opinion, could be fun I guess.

[Hitcher]

The trouble with you Hitcher is that even though you're anally retentive about spelling & punctuation you also contribute hugely to the site...asbestos pants and all! ;)

[Storm]

Come on Hitcher, you KNOW which one you will get .

[Hitcher]

The trouble with you Hitcher is that you're anally retentive about spelling & punctuation

What amazes me is the amount of time Spank must of put into making this sexy little addition.

Hip, Hip, replacement!

[Coyote]

I wanna be Godzilla! Godzilla just sounds so cool :yeah:

[StoneChucker]

But, can you nominate more than one person (in different categories)? And vote for more than one person?

*EDIT* You must be able to. I've nominated two people, one in "Tireless Rebutter" and one in "Patois". I went back, and they are still both there. *EDIT*

You provide too much fun and clever anecdotes for us to catergorize you Mr Hitcher sir. :wari:

[duckman]

Sooooooo... Someone has to nominate you in order for you to assume one of these personality types ??? Is that the gist o' the thing ??

Quick, aint I ??

[Coyote]

I don't seem to fall into any of those catergories. Will any more be added as time goes by?

It's pretty much a way of recognizing people's posting habits/moods/coolness. Just be glad you've been nominated, it means people take notice and you're a personality.

[inlinefour]

It makes for a good read, looking at all th options...

Guys like moko do ruin the spirit that was intended for these awards unfortunately...I must go now and nominate him for Troller!

[moko]

Yeah what a thoughtful guy he is!

I could only find one to nominate him for that sums up his character most accurately. :2thumbsup

That`s because you lack imagination zed and also because their dosnt appear to be a Messiah label in there."Yea though I walk in the Valley of the narrow-minded and deeply deluded I shall fear no neg rep point for wearily is trod the path of enlightenment".
moko chapter15,verse 7 (Queen zed version)

:Playnice: No flaming in the Flame Warrior thread.

[**R1**]

alright then........ so K14 has gone into hiding and just aswell for him too, but what I wana know is how do I find out who the other voters are :spudwhat:

well i have met u both and BB is the only one that checked out my butt:angry2: so i would have to say he is the the PERV, and slightly retarded.

you on the other hand are just deluded in thinking honda's are the shit, thay maybe shit but are not THE shit.

and any further descusion on the matter would prove you to also be GAY.

[moko]

Guys like moko do ruin the spirit that was intended for these awards unfortunately...I must go now and nominate him for Troller!

Incorrect zed,I take this very seriously and thoroughly examined every description attatched to each nomination.Firstly of course I had to satisfy myself that these were the original and not dodgy translations or someone else`s descriptions plagiarised.I think these are indeed the true words of Mike Reed,no-one else`s views are are valid,I`m right and anyone dis-agreeing is wrong.

book of moko chapter 5,verse 7:And the voice spake from the burning bush,"shit it`s hot in here"

[Storm]

Please Kind sir, may we have some more pearls of wisdom from the Book of Moko?

[gav]

So if you vote for someone who has been nominated, they don't know who is voting for them? Interesting (in best Monty Burns voice)
BWAHAHAHABWAHAHAHAHA he he he .......... :spudbooge

1) all of them...... them but the V8 which was a race bike only and all but 3 bikes were trashed because the riders couldent handle them, at the end of 57 there were no riders left that had the balls... the end of the 8

2) Guzzi were cleaning up in all classes..... so superchargers were banded after WW2, they still won races.
