G.R.O.S.S.

I'm very intrigued by your group. I have deep respect for you and Buckshot, P-Man, but I'm basically gathering information before I petition.

@Forever: sounds good.

Additional rules:

9) All members will put the best interests of the Comic Vine above the needs of G.R.O.S.S., any other teams they might be a part of, or their own personal agendas.

10) All members will actively contribute to the Comic Vine in some tangible way, including (but not limited to) the following

a) through submissions to the encyclopedia

b) hunting down duplicates and bugs

c) correcting grammar, spelling and punctuation errors throughout the encyclopedia

d) participation on the forums in general conversation

e) helping new members of the Comic Vine get acclimated

f) welcoming new members to the Comic Vine

g) participation in VS. battle threads

h) participation in RPGs

11) All members will treat newbies to the Comic Vine with courtesy and respect. Members will not label a Comic Vine member a "noob" or some other derogatory term simply for having a low post count, a low submission points total, or for asking simple (if naive) questions.

12) All members will treat any Comic Vine member who is truly a "noob," "troll," or a "fanboy" with sarcastic disdain. True "noobs," "trolls." and "fanboys" are illustrated below. (Keep in mind that these illustrations are not complete nor definitive).

Also, please use the following alert systems when possible:

Founders, please tweak or add to these as you see fit.

I want in, I've never been in a group so maybe this'll be my first time.

We shall vote. I vote yes.

<<<<<

We need WS to approve (or deny) Ms. Invisible and Donnie. Also P-Man, you skipped my number 9 so I'll make it 13.

13) All time travel machines or devices in the possession of members of G.R.O.S.S. become the shared property of the society.

I added it because I'm 90% sure Forever has one, and I wanna use it.

I don't know whether I want to join this thing. I'd still feel like a pledge or something cuz there founding memebers and then us.

Sorry for that mistake on #9. We'll compile an authorized list some day in the future.

I call shotgun on the time machine!

thats a lot of rules

so its like I am in but not in unless you say so and when I am in its only when it best suites others?

Eeep, sorry guys. I vote yes to both :D

Does the time-machine have a mini-bar and a DVD player?

@Walkingstone: Good morning.

"@Walkingstone: Good morning.@Loco: Huh?"

Morning P-man.

@Sat: Well I certainly say yes :D

Walkingstone says:

"Sat: Well I certainly say yes :D"

SWEET! =D

I'd like to join but......I'd eel like a pledge or something with the founding members and then us thing lol

@Walkingstone: back at ya

@Satyrquaze: yes vote #2

@Cryo: I'm not exactly sure what you're saying...

i mean.....because there are the founding members....then there's the new ones that pledge fealty to the founding members. it almost feels...unequal

Well, as Buckshot already stated, somebody had to start this thing, so not everyone can be a founder. Don't worry, once you're in, you will likely not notice a difference on how everything works. It is sincerely a group effort, and we only take out our ire on those who betray us.

I mean, look at how things are working already among the founders. I started this thing, and could easily strive to be a dictator, but I am open to and welcome the input of my fellow founders. It's all about respect, when is one of the unspoken goals of our society. We want to be an example of how a society such as our should exist on the Vine.

3 yes votes for Satyrquaze, welcome to the party.

Welcome Satryquaze to our august assembly. You may now place the society's crest on your Vine page.

After careful consideration, I offer my official petition to join G.R.O.S.S.

and if there were a time machine, which I'm not at liberty to say at this time, of course it would have a mini bar and DVD player. What kind of time machine would it be without them?

Thank you for this great privledge.

I vote yes, just for the possibility of the time machine.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<

I thank you both and patiently await a third vote.

this place is gross

Prodigious Man says:

"I vote yes, just for the possibility of the time machine."

Only if it's bigger on the inside.

Woot!

pic didn't show.

Woot!

still nothing... maybe it's my computer.

I checked... my work computer blocked it.

Satyrquaze says:

"I checked... my work computer blocked it."

They blocked the TARDIS? Infidels!

What are my and Dark Alpha's status in this group?

You have statues?

Post Deleted.

Walkingstone says:

"You have statues?"

Status.

Heeheehee, my bad

may i join GROSS

so what does the society do?

it does stand for Get Rid of Smelly girlS

Gambler says:

"Walkingstone says:

"You have statues?"

Status."

I would think youre still a founder, since you haven't offed yourself yet.

Post Edited:2007-07-12 16:46:18"

You quit, Gambler, at least that's what you told us earlier.

You also know what was said about Dark Alpha via PM, so that's why I've not mentioned him. Either way, Dark Alpha is welcome. I said people only need three votes since that would be a clear majority of the founders after your quitting. If you are not quitting, then members are going to need four votes I suppose.

Please give us a final answer if you are quitting, YES or NO.

@Spectrum: You get a yes vote from me.

@spiderman0409: Please read this entire thread and some of the comments made yesterday on the Hellfire Club thread. That's all you need to know, and I don't feel like typing an answer to that question yet again.

Dark Alpha is in.

Dark Alpha needs to post.

Prodigious Man says:

"Dark Alpha needs to post."

I'll let him know.

what about me gambler, and who are the other founders

Founders:

Prodigious Man

Buckshot

Walkingstone

Gambler (status currently ambiguous)

Dark Alpha

GL Bertron

...I think I got them all.

I'm out. I'll check back later to see if I get the last two votes that I need. Later all.

You're out? I'm assuming that means you're not on the Vine rather than you want out of GROSS ;)
