as previously mentioned by windy, can a mod merge all obits to here , thanx xx
-
Slightly depressing. I think we could have the odd 'single thread' about Famous people, but maybe not every single person that dies ....
If the demand for an actual obituary on a gaming forum is high, i can't see why we can't do one though.
-
Yeah great idea no point in having multiples all over the shop.Just title the main thread eh ...... :-X

or just not have any ?
-
There is an awful lot of 'RIP' topics cluttering the forum. I'll drop them all in here later today, if only for the purpose of cleaning up the forum.
-
Just have one or as Failed said none,can we vote on it? if im dead does my vote still count? or does my count vote? :-X
-
On 2nd thought, I see how having a designated Obituary topic will get pretty depressing. By this time next year, there will probably be dozens of pages of nothing but the news of people dying.
No disrespect to the dead, but that's probably a dark cloud a little too heavy for a gaming community. Everyone is still welcome to post new topics for notable passings in the 'Odds & Ends' board, or related topics (ex. actors deaths in Movie News). I'll leave that up to your own discretion. But collecting dozens of pages about death is probably a bad idea in the long run. :(
It's a good idea, fizz. Just not for this site.
-
RIP Thread. :(
-
Just one thread title RIP and thats it.It would be kinda depressing alright,and notables only.No Bernie from down the road went onto the roof to get her cat,slipped and fell into the pool and drowned.
-
No Master Thread topic, sorry Windy and fizz. We discussed it on the Mod Forum (suprisingly maturely >_< ) and decided although the odd thread is fine, a stickied Master Thread is too much.
(see neato's above thread ;oP )
-
okay, fair enough, though i did mean just for famous people, not everyone lol, just thought it was a good idea to tidy things up, but thinkin about it, it would be depressing, sorry x
-
If it's a movie star we can post it in the movie news thread, sports star then put it in the football thread, musician then our soundtrack thread, the Queen then either the jokes thread or the about damn time thread :-) etc. Saves cluttering the boards.
-
Thats eh kinda what I meant lol in the odds and ends just one single lone thread! :P
-
It's already been decided theres not going to be a Master Thread for these.
You should also refrain from posting unless you think it's debate worthy (Osama) or Gaming Related (ex.Hideo Kojima) but not if it's just gonna accrue a dozen 'RIP' replies.

wow, i can think of hundreds of threads on the odds and ends board that aren't debate worthy! :D
-
Are we being censored? :o
-
To a degree, don't go out of your way to post dead people ;D
-
So we are being censored he admits it,ok people spam the threads for forum liberties ;D
On eh second thought maybe not!
-
You may end up with an Obituary of your Forum posts :-*
-
Well it might expel some of that hot wind Im stuffed with :P
-
I like turtles.
-
I love lamp!
-
You would.
-
and why is that? ;D
-
I like Turtle Lamps
-
good call! ;D
-

and a topic entitled the cake club is ??, this isnt cluttering the forums is it, or is it game related, oops sorry your mod, you can do what you like , sorry again
-
it's my fault for thinking that ted lowes death was something people might want to know, obviously no snooker fans. I say just get rid of the odds and ends thread entirely or re name it, at the moment it sounds like you can post anything non game related if this isn't the case it needs changing. just a thought.
-
Much ado about nothing...... or something!
-
tell you what, get rid of my movie comp- thats non game related, i might go start my own site , one where my members can discuss what the hell they like
-
What's that word i'm looking for?
-
-
wow :o slow down I was only half way through that list!
-
lol xx
-
Lol I think that puts you ahead of me in the race for spammer of the year! ;D
-
#)
Are you done?
-
just tryin to prove a point, dont want to be told whats post worthy and whats not
-
What's that word i'm looking for?
freedom of speech. oh and mod power going to someones head, that and the fact someone was supposed to be giving up being a game night mod, and thinking, i dont really want to give up that kind of power, the power that gives me the power to tell people what to do, failed should run for government
-

Fizz it was game related with the prize. ;)
-
Gotta love the massive overreactions on here, wow!!!!
-
its fine, ive started my own forum anyway, my members can talk about what they like
-

You seem to be causing a much bigger disturbance to the population than Failed, especially considering you misinterpret 1/2 of what he says, and usually assume the worst.
Personally, I think Failed does a great job. And until someone convinces me otherwise, he'll remain a mod. Posting random snarky remarks on every topic only convinces me that you care more about proving some ill-conceived point than actually communicating like an adult.
-
fine, i'll leave . and so is dave, we are not being told what we can and cant post- as long as posts are not offensive, anything goes- clearly not the point, i will not stay in a forum were im being told what to do
-
fine, i'll leave
As an adult, that's a decision I'll respect. As a member of 360DF, you're always welcome to return.
-
not gonna happen, and as long as you have a child thinking he's calling the shots, i will never return , just want to say goodbye to all my friends, those who still want to speak to me on xbl, see you there, clearly im not allowed to be upset at the fact that posting about stuff is now subject to clearance, thanx for all the fun , just sorry its had to end like this xx
-
i'll return when tara takes over again- it went to sh*t when she left
-
clearly im not allowed to be upset at the fact that posting about stuff is now subject to clearance
That is completely in your own perception. Again, you are far too quick to misinterpret and assume the worst. This is not the first time.
-
i'll return when tara takes over again- it went to s*** when she left
I know that's intended to be a dig at me, but I'm not offended. I know why she left, and the irony of this situation and your comment is amusing.

I think this has gone too far now.It wasn't about content but messy threads.messy threads=clutter=mass implosion of forum!
I know where you're coming from Fizz but Failed/neato weren't trying to censor anyone,at least thats what I beileve.Don't leave please,please,please,please,please,please,please,please,please,please,please,please,please,please,plaeses<(oops spelt that one wrong!) please don't go :'(

My thoughts exactly very disappointing.

Seve Ballesteros

-
Seve still holds the record for most wins on the European Tour, great golfer and a great man, legend! R.I.P
-
Was only 54 a great loss for sport.
-
Wow I'm lost not very good at keeping up on the forums and it's like I just seen the aftermath of a worldwar after being asleep for ten years not knowing there was a war... Damn
-

Can I just post on here, Rest In Peace Leo, my guinea pig who finally succumbed to whatever it was that had made him ill today, at home with his cage mate by his side. xx

R.I.P Leo
-
R.I.P. Leo. You were a good friend, and contributed to many laughs on the forum. Rest well buddy.
-
Thanks Craig and Neato, I still have 5 more piggies so more laughs can be had at my expense, my goal in life is to be "that weird guy on the estate who rides around on a bike with a trailer full of guinea pigs in tow shouting Sci-Fi news to all and sundry" ;D
-
Taken before his time he will be missed RIP Leo :'(
-
sorry for your loss JT
-

-

Sorry for your loss JT, Leo will be remembered fondly.

Sssshhhhh, don't want people knowing I'm an accountant for crying out loud, that would make me a right werido!!! ;)
Thanks everyone for your kind words :)

aww its never nice losing an animal:)
-
Sorry for your loss Marty. :(
-
I can't believe this, Pepe, Leo's cagemate, died of a broken heart last night, he just gave up :( R.I.P. Pepe xx
-
R.I.P Pepe :-(
-
Were pepe and leo life partners?
-
Yes. Basically we got Pepe 4 years ago and were told he couldn't live with other guinea pigs, but after having him for around 6 months we realised that he actually craved company so we took him to a rescue and he "chose" Leo out of a group of 3 baby guinea pigs and they lived happily together for 3 and a half years before Leo died on Wednesday. I guess he just couldn't cope without him and just gave up as he showed no symptoms of the illness that Leo had been fighting for two months. :(
-
Wow :o poor lil guy.
-
Good lord, JT. That is the sweetest / saddest thing I've heard in months.
RIP, Pepe. :'(
