    Who decides this?

    And when someone creates and "oficial majorgeeks..." thread, is it endorsed by majorgeeks? Have royalties been paid for trademark usage?

    And why are there so MANY official threads? What makes them official?

    Questions questions questions...























    :p

    I have no answer to this mystery BUT wanted to just say HI :)



    .... oh then again I have some babblings on what I think it could be.....
    Think it may have something to do with being the first to post the question or topic.. thus wanting the thread to be the main and/or only one of said topic????

    Who decides well thats an easy one.... the Official Thread Monkey ;)

    You start a thread that says "begging to pay homage" then the body says to either CP, MA, Abby, or if noone better can be found, Kodo... Requesting clearence to kiss butt... and then beg.

    Perhaps we could get a moderator to change the thread title to the "Official 'What makes a thread official' thread"?

    Oh c'mon! This could be a very entertaining thread...a lot better than hearing about how you took a poo when you got up etc. :rolleyes: And maybe, just maybe some of the wonderful camaraderie and FUN that we used to have here in the lounge would begin again.

    just a thought. . .
    do you really want an official poo thread?

    I dunno, poo may have some potential here. Any threads about farting always generate a fair amount of interest.

    I'd assume that anything from MA or CP could be considered official, since they own the place, but when MA post a picture of his latest Harley on a Saturday and tells everybody to go outside & get some sunshine, is that an official order or only a smart suggestion. Gets confusing.

    well there does seem to be some interest doesn't there?

    How about we make it more general and call it "Official excretionary functions thread"... bunch them all in one thread. :D

    It's farts. Threads with farts in them are the official ones. :p

    Ooh, that smell. Ooh, that smell. The smell of poo surrounds you.

    Man, what an wonderfully pugnent oder.

    Poo.. and farts... and oders... oh my!!!

    You guys are grossiness. When did fun times turn into a potty joke? Can't you think of something less base and disgusting to talk about?

    Like Kodo (not MUCH better) and what kind of things we should launch at him this summer. My vote is flamming projectile squirrels.

    Or WHY is it official? Because it sounds important?!? Cus it's not... Like, I'm an Official Pain in the ass, because it's universally agreed that I am a pain in the ass, but that doesnt make it important... Or thread worthy... WHY, children... WHY?!?!?

    The last time I said anything official, it was "I DO". That was 34 years ago. I've learned my lesson. :D

    Yeah, but you have to have a "smellcard" installed in your computer for the proper effect. :D

    I was going to say that when you think of a thread idea and deem it "official" it's probably because you figure KODO is going to join it sooner or later and "officially" hijack it.

    So you have to have some sense that he is lurking about...

    (but even as I write this, he hasn't joined in this discussion, oddly enough, considering the topics that have come up and he has even been named more than once).

    Well, you could do it anyway. If she's asleep, she probably won't even notice. :D

    @ Halo...Man that monkey guy sure looks familiar. I seem to recall it on an avatar somewhere. :rolleyes:

    ...And yep, I cannot tell a lie - Abby said the 'P' word first. <I'm gonna make myself scarce now, as I'm kinda skeered!>



    Hmmm...tell me about it! I didn't even get an Official kiss my butt, thread. :eek:

    Maybe this is official that I typed this nonsense?
