Just noticed the banner ad (http://imageshack.us/a/img405/1852/33234695.png). Well played, sir.

Respectfully,

Indeed. I think Archie's offering you a challenge there, Hippie.

The banner add for the US says:
"Hello Troglanders
Hope you are engoying your weekend of festivities
Oh, and Hippie... *stab*:smallamused:"

with a picture of Archonic Energy's avvy.

since you're in canada, you have a different add (IIRC, there's one for the US, Canada, Australia, and "other")

Ah, ok. I'm Canadian so I guess I don't get to see it.

Since I can't see it either, what does the alt-text say?

The ad just got reported. I don't know if I should laugh or cry. So I'm going to do both at the same time. Oh snap it's the fun police! Run away! Run away! Run *runs into tree*...ow

I have an idea this has been in the offing for months, because I think I recall the subject being mooted back at the Oxford mini-meet back in March...

I know, I know. I didn't know anything about the joke and figured I might as well bring it up since the Giant tends to be really particular about his art being used.

I'm never going to live this down, am I?

Except no one bar you Troglanders can see it, so it isn't really that forum-wide. :smallwink:

ok, i'll bite.

thanks for all the awesomes. I'm glad i could spread some happiness with such a simple thing.
I only posted it in America because it's very specific in it's target demographic...

it'll expire in about 2 hrs or so unless it's outbid.
and it won't happen again because, it won't be as funny a second time... now a full page ad in the NY times... THAT'D be funny...

I would like to thank the Banners artist. they know who they are... and have been thanked via facebook.

now to see what the retaliation is going to be...

I have no idea what a "troglander" is but I can see the ad. When I click on it it redirects to GiantITP's main page. I am very confused. Who's Hippie?

Trogland is the land where Trog (the guy I quoted, incidentially) lives, i.e. America. Smellie Hippie is another member on this forum. He and Archonic Energy (the author of the banner) are caught up in an eternal stab-war, where they *stab* eachother at each and every opportunity.

Archonic is currently in the lead on account of bringing an actual knife to a Skype fight, and showing up in Trogland and surprise-stabbing the Hippie with a wooden sword while the Hippie was hungover.

The retaliation will be swift and merciless...

Ah, who am I kidding. It will be slow and probably much less impressive. I say again, "I tip my hat to you sir" and "I hate you". :smallamused:

I've already told you, if i beleived that for one second I'd stop.

and as I said at the last meet I seriously considered sending a bullet with Hippie engraved (http://www.my-bullet.com/) on it to you. but it seemed much too threatening to actually do. *stab*

*a troglodyte sticks his head in the thread*

Now that's what Trog calls "target marketing!"

That... That's just creepy...

which is why i didn't.

I put alot of thought into things I do, there's a line between what's funny and what's not.
if I did this same thing when there wasn't a meet it wouldn't be as funny. it's the fact that I know there's a group of playgrounders together laughing over this that makes it so.

... and it's expired. now... how do you get a bobcat in a box? (http://xkcd.com/325/)

I know. But my brain still involuntarily shuddered at the thought of it.
Why, I have no clue.

To say that it would have been much better if they hadn't used one of the smileys Rich created for the forums would be an understatement. If you're going to use it again, please get them to modify that bit.
