TUBER???!?!?

[Buster's Uncle]

[Shrugs]  I was experiencing an annoyingly slow evening on the boards after four hours AFK, and I noticed I was two shy of tubering Rec Commons, so...

(Note the complete lack of really quick posts to do it.)

Hi, Tuberski - it's hilarious that the first time I've seen you lurking since you signed up, you found the tuber thread right away...

[Tuberski]

You sent me an instant message almost a year ago about it. 

[Buster's Uncle]

Did I?  That does sound like me.

Crap; don't tell anyone I figured out I like you...

[Tuberski]

I ALMOST tried a true Tuberski, but hen, others showed up.

Here?  I guess we'd be honored to be graced by the Master Creator at work.

I suppose saying it's allowed ruins it.  Uh, I'm a posting machine and would try to block you?  Would that make it fun?  Like I told Gamera, if they're all on topic to the thread and complete sentences, where's the harm?  It hasn't been 1999 for ten years now.

Accept the challenge, O' Great Master; we implore You...

A true Tuberski is having the last post in every forum, NOT having the last post in every post of 1 forum.

But, hey, it's still named after me .

So I've been told.  I've pulled several minor tubers, but never a true one.  AC2 has never been tubered, in fact - although it was a near thing when we were starting out and I kept urging everyone in private to post a little, me having all the last posts showing being bad for business...

[Buster's Uncle]

...I should note that Uno's feeling his oats.  I prefer not to override managers I trust enough to empower, and if he was to decide to be a buzzkill about pulling tubers, it's not a matter I deem important enough policy to block.  We've not discussed, but proceed at your own risk.

(Oh heck; if you did a good job with quality tubering posts, I'd have your back.  Said quality could possibly include being hilarious...)

pffft. 

I was mod back when the first Tuber was pulled, IIRC. 

[Buster's Uncle]

Wasn't it quickly a banning offence?

At MZO?

[Unorthodox]

Yep.  Can't recall if the Tuber was before or after I retired from the mod gig.
