Go on, own up

I did!

I did too

I wasn't expecting anyone to actually admit it

I have to admit, I have a special place in my heart for llamas. Ahhhhh.

Somebody post some horrific anti-llama diatribe or something?

Hmmm ... I would like to know what that was, too!

Its not really a particularly controversial subject after all - its a llama, its quite big, and a few people have looked at it. ah well

Who's been writing unsavourary things about my llama?

*Looks suspiciously at Covert Bob...*
*Visits his list of conversations...clicks on his post to this forum...arrives at hidden post*

Moderators just seem to follow you around, don't they?

perhaps s/he/it got moderated for spitting in a forum??

I looked at the Llama too.

They played a big part in Sim City I recall.

And it is a big llama too.

I always assumed that the reason that Llamas played such an important part in SimCity2000 was something to do with Jeff Minter, author of the truly awesome shoot 'em up Llamatron, which came out originally on the .. oh heck, what was it now.. possibly the amiga, damn I dont remember. Anyway, Jeff Minter is a programmer who had been around for ages when Maxis brought out SimCity2000, and who has an obsession with Llamas- he may even have adopted one as a pet somehow I seem to recall reading somewhere. CLose inspection of the credits for SimCity show Jeff Minter certainly did something for the game, but as far as I remember his exact roll was left pretty vague...

What excellent quality friday night info! I did always wonder.

Hello. I deny writing anything unpleasent about the llama. If I recall correctly, that was BBBB. And I know for a fact that he didn't write any naughty about the llama. But fear not. The moderators will no longer stop me in my quest to save the world. From now on I will leave stealth hedghogs on all my postings. These sneaky little creatures are completely invisible to moderators, hence they step on them and hurt their feet. If they detect anyone else, they will roll over so you can safely step on their soft underbelly.

Covert Bob, trying to remember where he parked the stealth bus.

Get a hold of yourself man! Don't just stand there looking as though you've been slapped with a pair kippers. The moderators could be here any moment. Don't you know theres a war on???

But...the Llama. Its just so big.

Who will protect it from the mods then<?> The Hedgehogs<?>

The hedgehogs protect us from many things. When thhey fail, the good old kalishnikovs come in handy. The moderators are after us right now, delving into things they do not understand...
We'll deal with them.

It's a wonderful Llama . How did it get so big? I do hope genetically modified organisms aren't finding they're way in. By the way, hedgehogs like cat food - the bread and milk we usually make them eat can make them ill.
