Subject: The Pawn Stars #7: The Texas Chainpawn Massacre

Message:
We ( I actually ) have a new mission to be the team with the most amount of active forums on the front page. I have, therefore, started this new Team Social Forum to help achieve this goal...and also to get the drop on Social Dude :-)

This does not mean anyone can start a Pawn Stars Forum. There are certain standards to be upheld and our forums are a serious business ( snort ). All potential forums must be assessed and deemed acceptable by Team Management. We don't want any trashy ones sneaking through now do we...lowering the tone 'n' all that?

So please keep posting in the "old" one, but make sure this one stays up there too.

Apologies to Jeffrey

Message:
Believe my last post was wrong of me. It was to insulting to call you a lunitic and also non-sober. Please explain your meaning of "NEVER makes the front page" and also your "DETAILS". Again I'm sorry for speaking (typing) to fast. Did not mean it as a direct insult but when I reread it, it does sound that way. My apologies again.

A Bit About Navy Intelligence

Message:
Well this thread has been up all of five minutes and it seems to be going quite well so far. :-)
I do believe the Good Admiral was having a stab at satire (the use of ridicule, irony or sarcasm in speech or writing) there. This may class him as part of the lunatic fringe, but isn't really conclusive proof of that. If you allow me, I think I can translate his post(s) into something resembling sentence structure. This is my interpretation in a NUTshell.
Admiral Jeffery says he isn't going to post anything in this forum because he thinks we are egotists and that very concept is beneath him but, and this is the satirical part, the very fact that he has posted a post saying he isn't going to post a post makes mockery of the idea about not posting anything. That's the hilarious bit. But wait, it gets better! Jeffrey then realises that his post has contravened his own non-posting stance and he, therefore, posts another in order to make light of that fact. Gedditt? I hope this has made everything clearer.

Note: There will be a short answer exam on this at end of the semester.

It's my humble opinion that S.W.M.B.C. simply wants as many threads started by her as by
me on the "front" page, without any thought or concern as to Pawn Stars that may become
lost in the ensuing madness! Luckily, anyone reading this post now has quick reference links to

You actually thought I was serious didn't you!!!! What jokes lack in humor, they CERTAINLY lack in insult[ingnuss??]!!

I am just writing to make sure you know that I am still here, and will continue to come out with my witty comentary at the most inconvineant time. It appears as though there are beginning to be internal power struggles, and termoil within your team, which makes jeffrey happy.

here are the things I have accomplished thus far as an evil rival, and that I would like to rub in your faces. I have CRUSHED your leader in an unofficial tournament of leaders. Lets just say it was a major learning experience for the warrior princess. I have scared abtrup away from sporting his natoriously dirty orange shirt. I have started a new counter pawnstar newsletter "The Onion". Which satirically points out all your faults etc... not one but TWO of my my loyal teamates have begun posting in your forums. I have a new future NAVY LOSER named jeffreysparrot . [if that's not an ego trip... I don't know what is...] I have also demostrated that a few of you have "below average" reading comprehension abilities. It is ok, because it seems as though the great warrior princess has me covered in interpretation problems.

with all the hate only a TRUE rival could understand

DISCLAIMER all insults and whatnot are written with love and understanding from both the navy losers and the pawn stars. Any one who is not part of this rivalry may not realize this, and pull the "direct insult" flag.

Hi jeffreydot I don't really want to interrupt here, you seem to have the eternal rivalry ball pretty well rolling without any help from me, but I just wanted to jump in and point out, especially now that you have a newsletter (if I may dignify your... publication... with that term) that my proofreading/editing rates are really competitive and I have a spellchecker, which even works. Plus after your credit check you can take advantage of both our special Eternal Rival Discount Rates, and, if your last post is anything to go by, our volume buying discount for spelling corrections. Just drop by the Coach Zone on www.pawnstars.org and one of my staff will be right with you to give you a quote.

Looking forward to doing business with you,

Boiled Onions

Message:
Oh where to start. I turn my back for five minutes and you're all at it. That was a particularly disgusting seaman joke arikan... well done. Although I'm sure gru88y will be able to come up with something nearly as filthy. I note, with interest, that there are no delete votes for this forum yet...what is wrong with you people? Can't you see that this thread contravenes everything that team forums are supposed to stand for... or are you busy laughing at the seaman jokes too?

Anyway just to quickly highlight a few points that have been raised.

*Admiral jeffreydotcom, there is no internal power struggle and/or
'termoil'. I am the CAPTAIN and that is indisputable. I'll start as many damn forums as I like, and if they are all chock full of seaman jokes so -be- it. I am the only one that can remove team members if I feel like, no one else can do that. End of discussion.

*Where is the famous "The Onion " newsletter...are we not to be privvy to your anti-pawn ramblings? I do not see the forum for it. If we are to have right of reply you should make your accusations public. Also the name "The Onion" isn't terribly original, is it?

* I note that, since your unholy un-alliance with us started, you actually have attracted some team members. Obviously our fame has given you something of a boost in the team notoriety standings. You should give me a commission for that, and also for the parrot thing.

* There is no point being jealous of Social Dude. You will never be as Orange-Shirted as he is.

* We don't do 'trash talk'...it is beneath us :-)

DISCLAIMER: What Jeffrey said above. Don't ban us ... we have nowhere else to go

Apologies to the Admiral, Plus Some Other Stuff

Message:
This is only the second time I have issued an apology in a forum, so pay attention everyone. It was wrong of me to call Admiral Jeffy a "forum parasite". I did, in fact, encourage him to post stuff in here. My attacking him in such a manner was uncalled-for, but fun nevertheless. I guess that makes me something of a hypocrite...I'll just add that to my ever-growing list of titles shall I? I hope the Commander of The Seaman accepts this apology in the spirit that it is given and continues with his posts. I totally refuse to walk the plank over this though.

While I'm on a roll here, I would just like to say that MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, having a ton of forums wasn't one of my better thought -out- plans, as they seem to be all going a bit side-ways at the moment. In future we will have one (1) Team Social Forum only, plus the micro-tournament ones ( if any are happening, that is). Even I have been getting confused about which forum is which now.
The other problem with so many forums is that the 'content' is getting more and more..er..dubious, shall we say? I really have no wish to be known throughout GK as "The Captain Of The Team That Got The Team Discussion Forums Shut Down".

Anyway that's all I wanted to say, so go back to what you were doing. Well...go on!

It's almost as nice as being known as Social Dude.

Thanks for thinking of us jeffrey in your little mini-tournament, but as you say, were just not
as big a set of losers as you and your crew. =)
But don't worry, your comments are always welcome in the Pawntification game.

itk2k... the POSTCARDS FROM THE EDGE campaign - no, it's not another 'eternal team
rivalry', it's an attempt to have a bit more show for our team's international presence!

The idea is, you send in a postcard! (It's up to you as to what it should look like and what it
should say, but hopefully it will have a bit of taste, and reek of your personality!) We collect
'em, scan 'em, and post 'em to our website! (Well, I'm actually scanning them in right this
moment... so SOON they will be on the website.)

Hopefully our eternal rivals will then know we're not just make-believe electronic pixie dust,
but that we're a real presence out there in the world - just waiting to close in! =)

By the way, there's no need for return addresses or anything, so all your secret identities will
be secure, and you will be able to continue fighting crime as super heroes/villains, as is your
preference, so if you want to send you're own postcards in, I'll make a separate collection just
for our eternal rivals, in the Social Dude Zone, on the website.

Back to scanning...
