Flame Warrior

[Mental Trousers]

So are we in need of some appropriate pics to go with the new ideas of flame warriors? That shouldn't be too hard!

Let me know if you want to have a go at them and I'll send you the new Flame Warrior descriptions.

I'm no artist, but I was thinking of dredging up funny pictures off the net that could relate to the description.... not sure if that's what you're after. Someone who is artistic might like to draw some......

I was thinking that someone with some know how could grab some pics off the net, throw some photoshop filters at them and make them cartoon like.

[Trudes]

I don't have photoshop.... sorry.
Come on someone, please, new flame warriors needed!!

I sense a competition - how about a list on one post of the titles and then see who can come up with some good pics?

[cs363]

tee hee - he got a teeny willy..

That's not a willy - it's an old footy sock....

Category: Squid (Stupidly Quick, Underdressed, Ignorant and Dangerous)
Description: Often found popping wheelies on suburban streets or trying to get their knee down on as many corners as possible, the Squid likes to think that he is the man and that he has no need for proper riding gear as he is never going to crash and even if he does, he's immortal and won't get hurt. Immune to criticism and basic logic the Squid will read something on a highly suspect website claiming that having the bike vertical while his knee is down is worth 5 seconds a lap at the track and will promptly go out and try it, falsely claiming that he's now quicker than ever when, in fact, he's now slower.

Category: Site Bitch (genderless)
Description: Site Bitch freely admits to being a bitch and is willing to take on all comers for the title. Qualities such as being loud, tough, quick with a rude come back, throws low blows without a second thought, able to cook eggs and can argue anything are highly valued by the Site Bitch. Normally found in the middle of a conflict, Site Bitch likes nothing better than putting the knife in deep and hard.

Category: Bling Bling
Description: Lacks riding ability so this Flame Warrior compensates for it by adding as many bright, flashy, bling bits to their bike as they can find. Would like to wear enough gold to make Mr T jealous but is ugly/weedy enough to not want to draw attention to their looks. Performance isn't measured in kph, but rather, in bpc (bling per centimetre)

Category: Smack Talker
Description: Talks up their abilities to the point where he/she thinks everybody believes Smack Talker will win next years MotoGP series by 100 points while wearing sand shoes on a souped up road bike. Reality is something Smack Talker heard about at the pub once but is a ridiculous concept that can't possibly work.

Category: Site Emo
Description: Sitting in a corner crying.

Category: Grease Monkey
Description: Someone with permanently disoloured hands from all of the oil, grease and dirt. Loves ripping stuff to bits and usually succeeds in getting it back together. Sometimes it goes, but often they end up with that single 6mm high tensile bolt that "must come from somewhere" but it's probably not important. Can usually be found up to the elbows in some poor, unsuspecting sod's bike.

Category: Jesse James
Description: Infamous for stealing and/or derailing threads, taking them away from the point of the original post and far out into the uncharted wastes of Off-topic. Despite the unlawful character of such hi-jacks Jesse receives significant backup for his antics from other more gullible forum users.

Category: Preposterone
Description: Teenage Biker who claims a Honda VTR1000 can do 260 km/hr two up and his mate's Dad once wheelied a Slab Sider GSXR1100 over the Rimutakas at 100 km/hr without ever slowing down for any corners. Will spit the dummy and use the Internet as "proof" of his claims despite seasoned hands pointing out that a well fettled VTR1000 will do 260 one up - provided the "one" isn't Fatjim - and said VTR has a stiff tail wind. Is loud mouthed and full of muscle bound challenges in print. In real life isn't old enough to get into a bar with a Thursday Night Ride crowd, turns up a good 10 minutes after the bulk of the riders have arrived and settled into a pub meal, and spends the entire time at the pub nursing a Coke on a picnic table outside and not talking to anyone. Should really see someone about that acne.

Category: Cruise Control
Description: Cruise Control is a dark hose who never brags about his riding abilities. He is smooth, completely in control of his machine, and can ride like the thing that is leisurely chasing the figurative Bat out of Hell!!! Cruise Control's name is gained by maintaining the same relaxed position on the bike irrespective of whether he's on a straight, in tight twisties, doing 70kph, or even 200+kph!!!!

hehehe, I likey!!!
More more more!!!

Yeah we have to get this going again. Honestly it is some of the best giggles you can have. I am totally useless with graphics. What I really want to see is the warrior being used to tease/amuse/entertain the forum.

The gentle art has been lost. I would go and hunt out recipients for nomination (just cos I can) for the existing awards, if I thought I could generate a bit of interest, and get a bit of support! Common guys, this can be the best fun!

[Mom]

OKAY!!

Seems there is a bit of interest in the flame warriors yet again, and I may or may not have some support on the forum! Common you guys lets give this a whirl with what we have got available at the moment, while we wait for some clever clogs to create a few new awards for our entertainment.

Remember...Your Vote Counts

Can you have more than one award? Anyone know?

[PrincessBandit]

When they receive a certain amount of votes.

So are we in need of some appropriate pics to go with the new ideas of flame warriors? That shouldn't be too hard!

that's interesting. I only discovered the whole flame warriors thing a few weeks ago by clicking on one of the moving thingies to see what it actually was. Of course I had to go have a nosey and had a good laugh looking through the forum. I was surprised by how many categories there are and how many hadn't had any nominations in them at all. If the winner is selected by the receiving of x number of votes does that mean anyone nominated but not reaching the magic x number manages to evade their dubious "knighthood"?
(sorry if this has been asked and answered already - am running late for school already so must postpone the pleasure of reading the whole thread until later today......)

haha good on ya! Yep, you are not voted or "Knighted" until you have recieved enough votes... and then your avatar gets changed and you officially become whatever you have been voted, fun eh!!

[Number One]

But you don't have to hang with the pic and user title....

However whenever someone does vote you for that warrior you revert back to the ugly strumpet pic..or whatever you have been nominated for

NB: Can't vote for more than so many individuals under a single warrior nom.

We'd have to check with either Spankers or MT for that one...

And yes, I put in my votes ....since I am such an innocent goody two shoes now, I reckon I won't get elected for anything

Sucks, I have not been voted Fragile Femme In fact the nomination has disappeared totally, must have time elapsed, not enough votes in a given time maybe? What is with everyone? I was looking forward to winning that one.

I think there is a bit of a misconception around them. They are not just to wind people up, though they can do so wonderfully to be fair, they are also all about having a giggle. For me it is all about how good your sense of humour is.
