I hope that Carol Stream doesn't bother coming over here. I don't think I've ever seen her post when she wasn't being a total twat.
Go on, who's next.

Spoiler (mouseover to read):
I think it's funny when people say shit like that about themselves. For example, I had a first aid class the other day, and the guy showed us a picture of a guy with a badly cut hand and said, "This idiot was skating in a hockey game without gloves... and I usually don't call people an idiot unless that person is me." He then showed us his scar from the incident.
In another recent scenario, we were preparing a system at work, and a guy says, "If I get a hold of the sumbitch that designed this thing, I'm going to give him a good talking to. Damn thing's impossible to work on!" Guess who designed it?

Of course, you realize that anyone could always show up here, right, so listing the wretched halfwits of SD will probably result in fireworks at some point.
How about we work from the opposite end as well? I'm sure we all have friends and favorite posters who haven't been invited yet, and whom we could extend a link to. Is there a master list of domebohemians we could review and see if there's someone each of us would like to see over here?

Sure - I'd like to see DianaG and Kalhoun.

I'd like to see Scylla (purely because I liked his writing).
There are a lot of older posters banned (occassionally in ways that seemed like shotgun modding) I can think of I'd like to see here. If this board turns into what the SDMB used to be, they'll probably find their way here anyway.
Yup, I'd like to see lots of banned folks come on back. Excalibre, Otto..........and I happen to like Scumpup, so I'd like to see him here too.
Hell, if I didn't do things just because they made me feel a bit ridiculous, I wouldn't have much of a social life. - Santo Rugger.
Well, obvously opinions differ, but yeah, Excalbre and Otto would be great to have here.Originally posted by Cluricaun
I certainly wouldn't miss Scumpup, but he wouldn't cramp my style if he turned up.
The world would be a far duller place if we all shared the same opinions.

It'd be appreciated if you could encourage people who aren't members, and you're on friendly terms with, to join. The more people we have, the more chance this board has of being a success.

I'm a little ashamed that the names of posters I don't like come more readily to mind than the ones I do like. (Though the latter group would be most of the posters on the SDMB.)
Don't want to see:
Carol Stream: useless, evil cunt. (I'm curious about whether her username is her actual name, or a reference to the town of Carol Stream, Illinois.)
Kanicbird and Lekatt: worse-than-useless, ignorance-championing, lying cunts.
Ivan Astikof: Unrepentant burglar. Punk-ass bitch. I'd like to knee-cap him. (He only quit breaking into houses because a more dangerous criminal scared him.)
Rand Rover: Smug, smarmy cunt.
Brazil84: AGW denier to the point of being willfully ignorant.
Magellan01: Nah.
I'd really like to see Creaky, Equipoise, Elucidator, Jayjay. . . quite a few. And Xenophon41, even though he hardly posts anymore (just 'cause he's my brother in real life).
Well, Baldwin, old chap, you'd better get used to my presence, because I am unrepentant at pissing you off.

In 1986, burglars broke into my home and burned it down. If I had a time machine, I'd be there in the dark, waiting for them, with a 49-inch stick of ironwood in my hands. If by some happy miracle the burglars were you and Lekatt, the next 45 seconds would be happy times for me, and very sad and regrettable for the two of you.Originally posted by ivan astikov
You don't piss me off; you're dogshit on my shoe, Convict.
However, you've as much right to be here as I do, so, howdy, neighbor!
Pssst, Baldwin.
There's an ignore list over here too. Ivan holds the illustrious title of only person I've ever ignored twice.
In a related story, can we talk about ignore lists over here?

I gotta go with kanicbird, lekatt and ITR Champion.

That 'ignoring' tactic is so childish. Does anyone else have an opinion on it?

How does that "Ignore" thing work? Does it mean that the person's posts just don't show up on your screen anymore?
If so, it doesn't sound like something I need. I can ignore somebody without technical aid.
I haven't read this thread yet. (Just got here, haven't even taken off my Che Guevara jacket yet). But I will say that I hope every single poster from there comes here. I want the pit to feel and smell and taste like the pit I love. I realize now that it is my favorite forum. I would say GD is, but I really only read there, and hardly ever post.
I'm here.

Whatever became of the moment when one first knew about death? There must have been one. A moment. In childhood. When it first occurred to you that you don't go on forever. Must have been shattering. Stamped into one's memory. And yet, I can't remember it.

Hmmm. Where'd my posts go? That's an inauspicious start for these boards.
To try again: Baldwin, I hope that either this board takes off, or your suicide by mod is overlooked over there.
Guinastasia: Some Pittsburgh dopers, huh? My fucking feelings are hurt.
ETA: Yeah, I generally don't think there's much value to Starving for an Ass Beating relative to the costs, but on the other hand, who else could inspire another poster to come up with a description like "as endearing as a retard swinging a length of barb wire." That shit is still cracking me up.

Going to Cleveland where the Ohio catches fire is akin to asking David Koresh to repent, and he declined also.
He was NOT a Steeler fan, but the authorities that mismanaged the situation were.
