Title: Petition To Get Christopher Sheffield To Stay On Amiga.org
Post by: CU_AMiGA on March 09, 2005, 02:38:48 PM
Hey Yo!

It is a possibility that Christopher Cheffield, aka that_punk_guy may be leaving Amiga.org (for whatever reasons). We MUST put a stop to this and make sure someone with a status and popularity of Chris (who i see as the Ace of Spades of the Amiga.org card pack) from leaving. We already had the Jokers of the Amiga.org card pack, Sumner7 and Jonopike leaving. We cannot have another important card/member from leaving. I therefore think a petition is due to put a stop to this matter.

Regards,

While I feel a petition is both cheesy and slightly futile in this regard, I share the underlying sentiment towards our punkie.

@Chris

You know you will be sorely missed if you do leave. If it's going to be a transient period of no internet access, I can give you a gmail invite so your new password due at the end of this month isn't lost.

I too will miss Chris, as will many others, but let's hope he can get away - start a new life.

Why stop at the petition?
I think we should build a church dedicated to him, so that everyone could worship Punkie.
CU_Amiga, I'll need you to get ahold of some holy water, a white robe, lots of candles, and a big cross.
Karlos, you start gathering lumber and see if you can find a big bell somewhere.
We'll open up with a public sacrifice of Jonopike and Sumner.
If CU_Amiga has faith in him worthy of being in our newly founded club, I think that he should be sacrificed as well as a token of respect to our lord Punkie (the leader).

Hum,
Escape from the A.Org?
Futile….

No matter where he runs, even to a backward country like America, he’ll always be within a few miles of an internet connection. And, like a moth drawn to the light…

(but perhaps he has something up his sleeve?)

Hey Yo!

Right. Here is what we need:

Some pic of cards with some faces of Amiga.org on
A cross with Christopher's image ingraved into it.

Ah, but you misunderstand me. Think not of the foot, but what adorns it...

So I take it you don't think bloodline should be the ace of clubs in the context of the amiga.org deck then?
Title: Re: Petition To Get Christopher Sheffield To Stay On Amiga.org

Ace of fornicators, perhaps.

Well, I was hoping for a bit of a justification per person, but never mind :-)

Anyhoo, I spotted a few noteworthy absentees on the list.

Of the long-established users, in no particular order

T_Bone, Glaucus, FluffyMcDeath, Meerschaum (admittedly, he was absent a long time), GadgetMaster, Bobsonsirjonny, Kronos, Vincent, Quixote, the_leander, Piru to name the most obvious. Many others too.

Still, you'd need to invent a few suits extra to get them all in I expect :lol:

OMFG, I cannot believe I overlooked Red :-o

He was on my list, I must've pressed submit in a hurry.

-edit-

Looking back there were a lot of other characters too. Vortexau was never short of a good visual gag. I still crack up at the memory of that picture he found with Bush and the turkry. Priceless it was :lol:
