Do you hate Cardboard Tube? Do you hate him because he took away your precious chat thread? Does he mock you for your fervent love of Hitman 2? Have you ever just wanted to stick it to the man?

Right now, in the Solid Saints auction going on in SE++, Tube has put up the ability to change someone else's account name. It is a 1,000 dollar minimum to change his name. We're putting together a pool to get enough cash to get this done. Once we have the money, we'll set up a voting poll to see what we change his name to. The minimum pledge amount is $10. We have $735 to go!

Go over to the Solid Saints thread and post !PLEDGEKHOO $$$

Pledge because you hate him, but mostly, pledge because he hates you:
you'll never do it. y'all are pussies. you don't have the will.


The total seems like a good deal of money, but if we get enough people, $10 each will be more than enough.

    I reached into the future and got an excerpt from The Forumers Collective Journal: December 2010
    Once again failed to take down Tube. He is too smart and handsome, and we could not raise the money to change his name. We are all to be executed at dawn. No hope.

    No hope.

    Ladies and Gentlemen of G&T,

    You don't know me, nor do I know many of you, but here's the thing: We all share a common bond by being a poster on this here little web forum. Different sections of it, sure, but really...there are ties that bind.

    My friend, Langly, has made you all aware that we're doing this little charity thing down in SE++. Surely, you've seen the announcement at the top of the various pages, etc. Well, as previously mentioned it's all for Child's Play. A very awesome thing. Look, it is yet another thing that we can agree upon.

    Cardboard Tube, the Admin that you all know, has put up that if we collect $1,000 bucks towards this one singular bid, we can change his name on these here forums.

    He has also, be mocking us:

    No hope.

    We're currently $550 away from making this happen. C'mon, all it takes is for a few of you to donate $10 bucks. This is a thing that we can do. Surely, you see that.

    If that's not your cup of tea, cool. But be sure to check out the rest of the stuff being auctioned. So far we're up to $3,804 with a $1,000 company match. So, you know, a lot of money for the kiddies.

    Thanks, folks.

    It is worth noting that it won't cost you anything if we don't make the goal.

    You are simply pledging a small amount of money towards a far greater goal. If, and hopefully when, we break the $1,000 barrier, you'll have to donate your pledge via paypal.

    Simple enough, really...and totally worth it.

    Danke, gents, your help is appreciated.

    It's for kids.

    Also I never knew that G&Ters actually disliked SE++ers. I guess it's because I don't really come out of SE++ very much.

    Anyway there are some cool items up to bid on, as well. Go check it out. It's in a forum announcement.

    I don't think I've ever really run into you in your professional capacity. As in, I don't think you've ever had to smack me for anything.

    However, I will gladly put up a $10 pledge towards changing your name to Smurfy McPoofyPants or something similarly inane.

    Nothing personal!

    Right now the pledge must only be stated in the thread as the following:

    !PledgeKhoo $## <- whatever monetary donation you'd like to make.


    IF we reach $1,000 you'll be asked to donate that amount through PayPal within 48 hours of the conclusion of the auction.

    Everyone in SE++ keeps talking smack about our neck beards and animes. Instead of helping them in their quest to change Tube's name to <very clever in-joke I'm sure>, you should go there and outbid them on all their trinkets. It won't be difficult they have only a vague idea of what money even looks like.

    Sadly, some of this is incredibly true.

    BlueBlue, you came in like a hurricane early in the bidding and locked down much of the good stuff. You're a peach for your contributions.
