MLUKFC: In Depth - Page 2

I'm not saying that anyone here is unpopular, I'm saying that, on occassion, people make themselves unpopular for a period of time by causing controversy/bad feeling.

No and no

Gotta disagree with this one, logging on first thing in the morning, seeing 165 new posts and realising your the first mod on duty does not make you feel powerful lol

What motivates you to keep doing it though? You don't get anything.

And if it were to ever come close to happening, there would be pistols at dawn and Wario would lose.

**Monstro** · 09 Sep 2010, 20:49

Awwwww, Andy's gone all macho lol

I got all the groupies (still waiting for the drugs though...)

I think the biggest disadvantage is you have to wear a green jacket at all the meet ups... (Thanks Neil!

)

**allrevvedup** · 09 Sep 2010, 20:55

no i think he meant he'd ask Lucy to go fight Wario with pistols at dawn...

this is all because you wore a suit and posted the pic on facebook...

**RadioMaster** · 09 Sep 2010, 20:59

Indeed that's how it works...

*AndyK* · 09 Sep 2010, 21:00

All the groupies spent their time getting hairdressing tips from RJ though.

Steve6 · 09 Sep 2010, 21:01

Wario if I was being honest you and Pudding would be a perfect match. You both have similar personalities.

Mike if someone posted something about drugs and groupies they would be on their high horse out of here.

there is another example of Mod power.

A front row seat and M&G is alloted to each member of staff at every show.
However Andy R and myself keep that a secret from the rest of the staff and use their M&G's ourselves, going into the M&G room numerous times in various disguises.
So far Meat has met 47239065 mlukfc staff members

The front row tickets, we either use the extra seats for merchandise and extra leg/elbow room, or sell them on e bay.

I juggled, Andy whistled Mr Bojangles, Sue did some mindreading, Dave put over 100 washing pegs on his face, Michael - unicycle, Mike - origami, Anki tapdanced her way into the staff, and RJ swallowed a shit load of things made out of metal.

R cannot die as R does not exist in the conventional accepted meaning of the word.
R is actually a gestalt entity.
He is a composite of the forum staff, and of Fred (the Fred explains the weird shit

).
Fred is an experiment of the R composite and is actually called fRed (the capital R to signify that R is within fred, as fred is a part of the whole that is R).
The fRed paradox is that R is the creator of Fred, but fRed is a part of R, and so technically created himself.
It's a forum version of the chicken and the egg.
It was brought about by R (therefore the whole forum staff) being bored after playing with a pencil and rubber band one rainy Saturday afternoon.

The short answer to the question is that R cannot die unless all the forum staff are wiped out at the same time, and should the forum then promote new staff from the ranks, R would live again.
That said, if the forum staff were to be wiped out and fRed sigma was left, then R would take on the personality of Fred (fRed).
For the Harry Potter fans, think of fRed is Lord Voldermort's final horcrux

That is actually a rather more bland question than you'd expect.
Most banning have been for spam.
As for the actual details and figures, see Andy's post

We do.
Seriously.
mlukfc has always been a fan club run for fans by fans.
That's something that has never changed over the years.

We have a broom closet (the location of which is top secret) and a lighter, and once a week we have a staff meeting which lasts the time it takes for the lighter to get too hot to hold without burning our fingers.

I agree

Come on people, do a fecking facebook petition or something

No, but we got some mod training from a bloke who was in a pub who said he was the second gunman on the grassy knoll.
Or he might have said "say can gummi Honda gassy broll?"
I don't know, we were all kind of shit faced by then

No, we get our power kicks from owning a 1/32 scale Death Star which we will use for world domination and general acts of Evil
