The nice thread

[Captain Cyran]

A list? Do I have to? *gets a glare* Alright fine...

Kuja, fellow Buffalonian. And almost as much of a smart ass. You're a great guy man.

Lindar, always good for an amusing chat. Even if she is evil.

Ace, I'm the God of laughing? Score! You're cool in my book man.

Tevar, don't talk to ya much anymore dear. But you're still a great person.

GR, I think he and I have managed to pervert more threads in the past few months then most do in a year.

Connor, great guy, easy to talk to.

Rouge, we abuse the hell out of the poor guy. But he's cool.

Stravo, lord and master of fanfiction, and another just generally good person.

Shep is always good for a laugh, and I really do agree more and more with his "Fuck it, nuke everything." plan every day.

fgalkin, that crazy russian we all love.

Alyrium, damn I almost forgot you. For being a complete and total heathen, and trying to smite people anyway.

I've no doubt forgotten one or two of you, maybe more. Sorry.

P.S. And Lus gets points for being awesome and making the thread and spreading the joy of fgalkins niceness.

[Pablo Sanchez]

Ok... so if you have anything nice to say about anyone that you want to share, put it here.

Hmm.

Hmmmm.

. . .

After much thought, and consideration of the adage "If you can't say something nice don't say anything at all," I have nothing to say. (This is because I am the bad cop.)

[Zaia]

I like Pablo because he's man enough to watch "John Mayer Has A TV Show." He's also not afraid to say good things about it that might make him sound like a pussy.



PS: I've got heaps of nice things to say about people, but I have to run to a rehearsal/concert now, so I'll add more later.

[Rogue 9]

Lusankya, for being the hottest Super Star Destroyer this side of the Outer Rim, and bringing an order of knighthood to the board.

Zaia, you're great. I mean that. Despite your tendency to take your moderating job seriously. I kid, I kid.

Erm... Thanks to everybody who brought me up.

Mike, we have our differences, but your board rocks.

All the SD.net Dawn of War players. Lots of fun, even if you do kick my ass and then laugh about it afterwards. (Yeah, I hang around to watch the games after I'm gone, including seeing the comments made. )

All the STGODers. When I've had a better board-based game, I don't know.

All my D&D players on the board for being so patient with me. Now let's get this thing rolling, hmmm?

Stravo, StarCrossed is just great. I must make a note to read your other fanfics at some point, but for now StarCrossed is quite enough for me to handle.

Mayabird, thanks for listening and for all the great band stories.

Alyrium, invasions are lots of fun. Let's do another sometime!

[SyntaxVorlon]

Oh and extraspecial thanks to the admins, supermods, and mods: you've made this one of the best run, evenhanded, uncluttered and efficient boards on the internet. No small feat.

[Stravo]

Stravo, StarCrossed is just great. I must make a note to read your other fanfics at some point, but for now StarCrossed is quite enough for me to handle.

Dude! You are sooooo missing out.

[Guardsman Bass]

Reading Mike's, Durandal's, Rye's, and Kuroneko's(although I have a hard time understanding him when he talks philosophy ) are very enlightening, and enjoyable.

Sir Nitram is also cool, both for his arguments, and the fact that he was almost always the first in the threads I post in to call a troll a troll.

[Batman]

Oh what the hell-DC is going to throw a hissy fit for me going against my inconsiderate asshole image so that alone makes it worthwhile
-Mike, for making this possible in the first case
-GR, Stravo, JME2, Stofsk, Tsyroc and Clark for many a fun comics debate,
-Lusankya, for starting the thread where
-Petroskjo and I had a lot of fun being silly (despite him ditching me from his sig )-thanks for playing along,
-Zaia, (despite her modding habits ) for starting another such thread, for being loads of fun, and for showing me that there are still Good People on this planet (and just for the record, I never suggested Tori Amos is a cockatrice-it was merely a poll option, Valendammit)
-IB, for a lot of fun especially discussing Harry Potter,
-SirNitram, because assuming he knows who the hell I am he'll Hadoken me if I don't mention him, and because I'm awed by his D&D knowledge,
-Lady Tevar, because SirNitram will Hadoken me if I don't mention her. Oh, and 'Meow',
-Brianeyci, for giving me a chance to try my debating skills,
-Rogue 9, for at least technically having a quote of mine in his sig ,
-and this is where I give up due to information overflow. Once more I can only say- Gunslingers, I cry your pardon.

[Eleas]

There are tons. The old brigade I have and do like, too many to name: Damien, always witty; Rob, eversmashing; Pablo... somehow homey; Nitram dependable; Marina, apocalyptical; and Rob Wilson, whose smoothness is legendary among all. Others, more recent, have grown on me: Alyrium, Arthur Tuxedo, Ghost Rider, Stofsk... I can't even list half of the ones I like here.

But I know I forgot Colin. Dammit. And Zaia. And Innerbrat. And many more.

Edit: I also want to take a moment to apoligize to Imperial Overlord and Skelron, because I unfairly heaped a shitload of insults on them in earlier d20 threads. Sorry, guys.

[Darksider]

Like Rogue said.....

This one goes out to all the STGODers....

We've had some damn good times, have we not?

[Keevan_Colton]

In no particular order and undoubtedly with glaring exceptions, GR, Dalton, Rye, Mike, Fey, Kernel, IB, Rob Wilson, Lindar, Tych, fgalkin, Lusyanka, Lindar....in fact, to make it simpler these people (minus the trolls etc of course )

[Robert Treder]

The following people consistently make posts which are worth reading:

Darth Wong
Admiral Valdemar
Batman
Connor McLeod
Duchess of Zeon
Durandal
Edi
Ghost Rider
His Divine Shadow
Illuminatus Primus
Kuroneko
Ma Deuce
Mad
Master of Ossus
Pablo Sanchez
Patrick Degan
Phong
Publius
Red Imperator
Sea Skimmer
Stravo
Vympel

And of course, I enjoy the presence of every one who contributes to the board, but this group stands out as cool even among the coolness that is this board. There are probably more that I meant to add, but forgot. Oh well.

[fgalkin]

Teh Zaia, for she is Baby Jesus, and no one can be nicer than Baby Jesus (well, except for me, but I can't nominate myself)
The Kernel and the Fey, for they are both insanely cool.
The Shep, for he is a dolphin shaped nuke
Lus, for being the first to appreciate my niceness.
Connor McLeod, for his habit of smacking down stupidity abd fanboyism wherever he may see it.
Dalton, for stealing donuts from my enemies.
Durandal and RedImperator, for being cool.
Lord Wong, he is not nice by any stretch of the imagination (especially to trolls and morons), but everyone loves him still.
Marina, likewise, her niceness could be found only with a microscope, but her posts are a very enlightening read.
Edi, for being a nice guy, and at one time, almost a neighbor.
Stravo, for he is the epitome of "nice guy"
Kuj and Cyran, for they are the reason I will nuke Buffalo.
GR, for he is also cool
XaLEv, if he had lived in the Middle Ages, he would be a monk writing chronicles. He is not a monk, but he is writing chronicles.
Stofsk, for he, like many here, is a cool gut.
JediNophyte, for he knows a lot about this weird thing called "Warhammer 40k"
Petrosjko, for he is a follower of the niceness of fgalkin.

and many others whom I did not include, for I was lazy.

Have a very nice day.
-fgalkin

[XaLEv]

I think most of you fuckers are nifty.

[Imperial Overlord]

Let me start by saying that there is a lot of you and I will undoubtedly miss one of you. Let me apologize in advance for that.

The Bilbo Baggins quote from the Lord of the Rings applies here: "I know half of you half as well as I should like to and I like half of you half as well as you deserve." You're a great bunch of people.

Petrosjko, Pcm, Yosemite Bear, Stormbringer, Typhonis 1, General Tacitus, and the rest of the 40K crowd.

NecronLord, font of 40K info.

Mike, of course.

The Duchess of Zeon who is always interesting.

Shep, who says a lot of things I disagree with, but is always worth reading.

Elfdart, for the similar reasons.

Patrick Degan, who can bury his opposition under an enormous pile of data.

I've already talked about Stravo.

Braineyci and Chmee. Yah, they've had embarrassing incidents. My life has a couple of those as well.

Mike, Lord Poe, Mayabird, Bob the Gunsliger, Stofsk, Inner Brat, Zaia, Bohemian Fey,frigid magi, The Kernel, Vympel and Cpl. Kendall for being themselves.

fgalkin and Lus for being so nice.

Alyrium, the only openly gay libertarian D&D nerd I know. He's a hell of a nice guy. I don't know Shark Bait to well, but he's funny and his choice of friends speaks well for him.

Connor Mcleod, patient and intelligent.

Eleas, during that unpleasantness I was irritable and looking to take it out on someone for reasons that had nothing to do with the board. That mess is at least party my fault and I'll lay claim to my portion of the blame. I don't hold anything against you.

[Col. Crackpot]

you are all the craziest bunch of degenerate assfuckers i have ever met.

[Darth Fanboy]

Shout out to the UPF Crew.

[Stofsk]

TheKernel has been a great guy to talk with and to receive advice from. I was one of the first he told about his feelings for BohemianFey, and about their impending marriage. I hope for them all the very best.

Darth Wong made this place, when he could have just done something more worthwhile. IIRC I've received the smackdown from him just once, but he was positively gentle. In any case, he proved me wrong and I conceded. There's no shame in admitting you're wrong, especially in such company as his.

Zaia for being there to talk to, you and TheKernel were there when I needed someone to talk to the most. Thank you.

Crown, for being just a general cool guy. I wish I'd met him before he decided to go on his journey across the world, and he's gonna miss the Aussie SDnet meetup, but ... he'll be here in spirit, or something.

Vympel, nice guy. Weemadando, cool guy. Mr Flibble, great guy. All aussies.

Batman, Petro, JME2, Eleas, Tsyroc, Knife, Joe, others, just for intelligent discussion. Frank Hipper, for being cool. Alyrium Denryle, for answering my questions on frogs and reptiles. Illuminatus Primus for his knowledge on SW, and for his fiery attitude (sometimes justified, sometimes not, but each time with passion). Sea Skimmer knows about the military the way some people never will, and he answers questions from n00bs like me. Dalton rocks.

Whenever The Duchess of Zeon, Kuroneko or Publius make a post, I'll read it, even if I don't know what the bloody topic is about, because I'm guaranteed a unique perspective. That's always valuable. Stravo, for knowing how to entertain.

Finally, Lusankya. She's a special lady. 'Nuff said.

[Anarchist Bunny]

Personally, I think I'm one of the most underrated posters ever.

Bah, I beat you there by leaps and bounds.

Anyway, nice things, nice things, well the board, for being a group of people that disscussion with doesn't make me contempt the human race as a whole

[PainRack]

Connor Macloed: Intelligent, humourous, can relate to. What else does one want in a guy?

HisDivineShadow: "We worship the Shadow!"

[Knife]

Ah, a pat on the back thread. I love these.

Nice. Well, my brothers in the Mess are nice. Nice and strong, knuckle dragging, hard working, straight shooting, warriors from hell......

Above and beyond such, Edi is just one hell of a dude. Even when he's all 'uppity' he's still nice.

Stofsk ranks just below Edi, in the nice scale. A good guy, even if he's having a bad decade.

Fey, well she's a hon. What more can you say. If she wasn't nice, I wouldn't call her hon. Spunky too.

RogueIce is nice too. Hell, even his put downs are nice.

Oldy and Moldies like Stravo and Ghost Rider are giant suger bears too. Sure there might be a crusty outside, but they're just giant pushovers.

Shit, there are so many nice people in this place. There's a bunch of cool assholes too, but the thread is 'nice' so I'll stick to the theme.

[Knife]

Addendum;

I've recently discovered that I enjoy Petrosjko's posts. Im almost all cases, he's nice and well mannered. Though he does rank right up there in the 'I can't spell his username' category right along with Alyrium.

[Gandalf]

I'd like to mention the SDNet chat denizens. Good fun lot of people to waste time with.

[Enforcer Talen]

an oorah to my aiif fundy hunters, the mess, sexay gale (cmon, it has rye *and* f00. you dont get better then that), wong, duchess, sos:nba, and the whole herd of sdnetters who comment on my bizarre threads

[Kuja]

Alrighty then.

First among equals is Captain Cyran. I love ya, I hate ya, I can't frikkin decide, so I'm not gonna bother. You're a hell of a guy to know, and let's leave it at that.

Next up is Zaia. 99% of the time, I feel more positive about things after talking to her. The other 1% is what takes place when I say something dumb and piss her off. Zaia is the only SDnet member who could whack me with a baseball bat and I wouldn't particularly mind; she kicks that much ass.

Then there's Ghost Rider. I didn't have much of an opinion on him until we started yakking away on AIM and now he's one of my favorites around her. He's a hilarious guy, he's got some good writing skillz, and he likes FFIX. Kick. Ass.

Hmmm. I'll give Duchess of Zeon a mention here. She makes me wish humans could learn by osmosis, since I always want to feel smart when I'm talking to her.

No list of my favorite posters would be complete without Rob Dalton. All kidding aside, I owe you a lot. My writing career would've blown up in the hanger if Dalton hadn't helped me configure Word for posting stories on the net. Dalton is just a great guy who's great to know, and it's too bad that there isn't more of him to go around.

InnerBrat. She's just...somthing. What's it called? Oh yeah, cool. InnerBrat is really, really cool. Cheers to the beautiful lycanthrope. I really ought to talk to you more.

OK, I've gotta mention Lusankya here, for making the best goddamn comeback in board history. Lusankya came here a long time ago and seemed pretty awesome, then vanished. Much time later, she finally reappeared and has been kicking ass all over the place ever since.

Stravo, Stravo, Stravo...what can't I say here? My longest-running fic was inspired by your writer's block. For fuck's sake, how often can a guy's writer's block inspire people? That's just plain crazy.

I can't get away without mentioning SirNitram and LadyTevar. If this board is ever spontaneously transported into D&D, I am going to attach myself to you guys and hope I come out unscathed.

Well, I think that about sums it up- *gets hit with frying pan* -right, right, I was just about to mention you, Lindar. You're just a ball of laughs on and off the board. It's a riot a minute knowing you.

There's lots of you that I haven't metioned, but this is a long post for me and my ADD is demanding that I move on. Keep on rollin, y'all.
