Wrinkledlion X Posted August 29, 2010 People hacking and trolling, people trying to make a statement, man by putting Hapori Tohu in their banner with Hitler's head between the gears... Zahd and Rho roaming free... People posting inflammatory stuff to get themselves banned... Madness all around... Of course, now they've all moved on to a certain lime green forum of which we dare not speak. Quote Link to comment
GMan Posted August 29, 2010 I think it was more that a bunch of relatively early members who coalesced into some kind group of tastemakers began going through the same adolescent pangs of angst and shortsighted vitriol, and led a few others with them. As for what happened after, well, I can't speak for that because I wasn't here frequently. Quote Link to comment
Wrinkledlion X Posted August 29, 2010 I miss those days. There was a lot of fun stuff to watch. It's weird, though. It's like, the only people on this Bionicle website now are people who are actually fans of Bionicle. When did that happen? Quote Link to comment
GMan Posted August 29, 2010 Perhaps, since the franchise has basically drawn to a close, those people with a passing interest in the subject, and few bonds to the community (which made their not being fans so annoying) departed for newer pastures. Pastures fertilized with harmful chemicals that run off into a nearby stream. A stream that orphans drink from because their poor, run-down orphanage has no running water. And the pasture was built on razed forestland that was actually the habitat of an extremely local species of bird, thus demolishing a quarter of their traditional nesting grounds. And the cows grazing there are actually sinister organisms engineered from cow DNA to resemble cows but function as biological equivalents to electronics. Which electronics, specifically, is unknown, but the cows aren't any less sinister when they all turn their heads to look at passing cars. It is hoped they are Walkmans. And the cars are driving past the pasture on an interstate highway that took away traffic from a nearby older route, destroying the economy of the surrounding towns. I'm going a bit far, aren't I.

Wrinkledlion X Posted August 29, 2010 That was ambiguously poetic. Or poetically ambiguous. Quote Link to comment
Chols Posted August 29, 2010 It's all the Phantoka's and Mistika's faults. They sucked so hard that you can blame anything on them! Quote Link to comment
GMan Posted August 29, 2010 But seriously, yeah, they were nice-looking sets, but they were a letdown after 2007's innovative, set-unique focus, especially since they were supposed to be the return of the Nuva. EDIT: Boy, am I a geek. Quote Link to comment
Wrinkledlion X Posted August 31, 2010 Aww, they're banned? I didn't even know that. I thought they had just grown up a bit. Quote Link to comment
