alfdogg 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2005 I must admit Banders was quite funny as well. I still don't know why he called Mr. Rant an alfdogg ripoff, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Giuseppe Zangara 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2005 It was part of Banders' schtick. Banders was a gimmick, though. I think only a few people know the real story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Giuseppe Zangara 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2005 Yeah, but it was neither me nor Agent, which most people seemed to think. Plus, that he was so clearly a gimmick yet effectively pissed off so many people is what made him so great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Giuseppe Zangara 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2005 It was. subby got a little sloppy towards the end of Banders' run; certain Banders posts were indistinguishable from subliminal_animal posts, but I only recall like one person calling him on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BUTT 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2005 After learning that Banders was a gimmick, it occurs to me that the key to his success was that he posted fairly normally for the first several months, then got progressively stranger and more ridiculous as the months went on. It's like the dude had it all planned from the beginning. You know who I miss? Shoes Head. He was kind of like Banders, except I think he was serious.

BUTT 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2005 Well, he got banned because a mod said he was "probably Johnson", but to be quite honest I don't even know who Johnson is so I don't know why that's bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Giuseppe Zangara 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2005 Your reply to his "You sure talk a lot for someone I just shut up" was "Do you know who I am?" which was the equivalent of choking back tears, flailing your arms and whining, "no, you shut up!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2005 No, I legitimately wanted to know. I'm so well liked, I wouldn't think anyone would want to say that to me if they knew who I was. That was only the first exchange, anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
