 |
|
Haven't done one of these for ages, but any user with plus 20 posts who creates 3 or more new threads over the next 7 days, can choose the colour combo of squares that goes under there username here on the forum.
I know these things get everyone all excited so please for the love of Christ, refrain from PM'ing praise and ascii rose bouquets.
Let the games begin!! |

Perhaps those new threads will require a few replies to qualify? Otherwise, Lee will post "Had bacon for breakfast", "Car started fine this morning" and "Off to the lav, set your watch by me" duffers.
Not that he needs new colourspots, he's just so blasted competitive  |

Well Lee's colour spots have proven to be quite popular. You wouldn't believe the amount of users who ask for the British flag combo set. I have to turn them away saying that Lee earnt that glorious colour combination through blood, sweat and tears.
For someone else to just stick them on their avatar, well it would be like stealing a Purple Heart and sticking it on your pocket. Even worse, it would be like buying a chefs uniform and impersonating a chef. Not just morally objectional, downright illegal. |

It's easy to reply to a post, but it's very hard to start one off that gets 1 or more interested parties chipping in.. as Bass well knows.
I do wear my Union Jack colours with pride, although im thinking of changing them for the St George cross as the Union seems to be crumbling, The Welsh and Scottish assemblies are slowing eroding the red white and blue from the British flag, but then again the George cross is rather chavie. |

, Lee. Never doubted your ability to make a good thread run but will you really let someone else win a prize here without a fight? Incidentally, I've just realized my avsquares (now that Gene's gone) look like the flag of Imperial Germany  . Off to shoot down a few Nieuport scouts before tea... |
