Default I was thinking the other day...

.........Which is an event in itself.

Would I be a million miles off if I was to think there was a breakaway ScoobyNet, were people went who were peed off with the way the site was going.

A large group of disruntled muppets, intelligent and dangerous.

Maybe called BOTW, which will be like the 'Land of Milk and Honey', orgies going on everywhere, people being overfriendly with each other and talking about grown up stuff, and post whoring to their hearts content.........{I cant find it by the way, I have tried too.}

Anyway, to join this breakaway group you need to leave this site with a bang....not a Chaos bang, but throw a few profanities about and call the new guy a fat lobser and such like.

Then once your back with the clicky BOTW guysngals and you have snuggled in, your are required to infiltrate the old ScoobyNet every now and again and cause a bit of trouble.

Nothing too bad, just pick a new user name and bait some thick ****** by starting a thread with..." I need a new watch."

I think it would be run by someone like BubbaPoo, he would be GrandMaster of the group but too smart to get involved in the games, yet powerful enough to persuade others to do his work, without them actually knowing they were being manipulated.

The GrandMaster could call in to the real ScoobyNet whenever he felt like, just to show his face, say hello... and pick the next victim.

Maybe Ive had too much sun.

Lol Yoza, thats sounds an interesting scenario, is it possible?

After all I agree there has been some strange goings on recently, I suspect 'overeasy' is a PSL clone. maybe it's PSL who has started one after all I think 90% of the users on here are him.

It is a little weird the sunny side up and overeasy are both references to how eggs are cooked but maybe I have had the cars roof down too much and got sunstroke.

And the thing is yoza, I for one agree with you wholeheartedly. I've made the odd lobster remark, fair enough but SN is still SN and I've been here longer than most.

So there you go

Who, what, when, why?

I've been posting on here for all of a week having discovered the place a few weeks back as I'm interested in buying a ScoobyDoo at some point. It looked like fun so I decided to join in. Didn't know there was a user called sunny side up (good user name BTW), I just re-used the username I had on a now defunct VW site. Any resemblance is purely coincidental.

But now I'm really confused, who the hell is PSL?

Ooo, the " secrets " out.

And they say man never landed on the moon, and 400,000 people kept it secret. BOTW probably has no more than 150+ members and how long did that last!

I'd look for the ctual number of members, but due to the somewhat adult nature of the site ( it's nothing special before you all Google it ) I can't access it at work.

Would be funny if en-masse all the regular posters had a Scoobynet Holiday and all registered onto another BBS for a few days and then came back, may I recommend we perhaps do some missionary/rehabilitation work over here,


Maestro & Montego Owners Club

And then have a well earned Luxury break here,

Bentley Owners Club -

Or for a budget Magaluf feel,

I would get drummed out for calling it a Montenogo, and the Maestro was known as the "Aggravated Egg"

Don't worry about PSL, he's just some sad w@nker who posts mindless drivel under many and various user names.

Like they do all over SN, Muppets wasn't the only part of SN that had it's cliques, far too many self important arseholes on the majority of forums you'll visit.

Precisely why another forum I use has only 107 members as we all generally know each other and have a laugh. Bit of banter and no prima donnas

Here on SN, you have to take the rough with the smooth...literally

< deep breath > Telboy, fancy giving chapter and verse on what, in your opinion actually did happen? Feel free to PM/Email if you don't want to do it publicly, and I only say that to avoid a possible flame war that could erupt.

I'll be honest here and say I'm not trying to bait or goad you over this. I have a recollection of what happened, and I also recall that on the exact day the forum got named/split I wasn't around and so only saw the aftermath, and have heard various things on what the root cause of this was, and yes, the phrase clique is involved.

I'm genuinely interested in hearing another side to what happened.
