Well, the time has come, my friends, for me to dispel all questions and doubts that may have seeped into your minds. What I am talking about, of course, are the glory days of the OUIFf, when the shackles of tyranny were still lurking in the shadows of the forum. I will also give true accounts of when the forum became an oppressive police-forum, governed by an intimidating fascist regime. All in due time, though, as our story begins when beautiful and wonderful person [Sic] first signed up to the community.
[Sic] entered the forum with the noblest of intentions, beginning his career with a friendly "Hello! How is everyone? I am new here, I hope you don´t mind me joining you in some fantastic discussions and enlightening conversations."
Several days passed without a response, with [Sic] beginning to wonder if they welcomed new posters at all. Then one fateful evening he had gotten a reply. It read: " What did you say? Fanttascist dicssussiones and enlithnin convorsetssions? What is that? This is an In Flames-forum! In Flames rulzzzzz!!!"
Filled with glee, [Sic] replied courteously: "Yes, I do agree, In Flames are indeed a good band (though I prefer their records before ´Colony´). Actually, I didn´t say that I hoped we would have fruitful discussions and such, I wrote it.
"
A regular poster responded: "FuuuuuuuuuuuUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCcccccccccccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkk UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, (()))[[[8 SssiKKcccKK]]88]]))}{!!!!!!!! You suck so much n U shoudl die horrrrribly in hell! Fukk, was that a joke I saw in ur post????! Huh??! Was it??? U will pay for this."
Apparently outraged over the little funny remark that [Sic] had made, a moderator came to the rescue: "Sic is pain in butt. He go boom-boom n bang-pang when kicked. [Sic] get will be banned now doing for this joke. What are joke, way the by?...are infamiliar with that word."
And so endeth the first part of this mind-boggling epic tale, with the banning of [Sic].
Depressed and utterly beaten into oblivion by the fact that they (the OUIFf-er moderators) had banished him from the board, he sought refuge at an alternative community. Enter Ultimate Metal and the truly marvelous people of the Dark Tranquillity-board. They more or less welcomed [Sic] with open arms and friendly responses. Little did [Sic] know, though, that the OUIFf-ers had infiltrated the D.T.-forum long before he had arrived there and cast insults in his general direction almost immediately he had signed up. This too - that there where OUIFf-ers on the D.T.-board - would call [Sic]´s attention towards the fact that the OUIFf-ers had lifted the ban and now opened the gates to his former home on the Internet for him. This was due to the courageous and noble woman which they call Episode666. She had fought for [Sic]´s rights and done so most brilliantly, for she had swayed the supreme chief in charge to allow [Sic] to post once again. Now everyone was happy and gay at the OUIFf, for the golden days were upon them, and radiant light shone as far the eye could see, because the prodigal son had now returned. Lo, [Sic] had come back!
He enjoyed much praise this time around and received many compliments and was sung of in the sacred gospels of the OUIFf. But this period of elation would soon come to crumble, for in the shadows hid the master-wankers, those who could not tolerate [Sic]´s rise to fame. In the end they had managed to corrupt the mind of the once so righteous and true Episode666. They persuaded her with american In Flamsical logic, tricked her with childish macho mind-games, and at long last they had succeeded in their scheme: to steal her sense of humour and rob her of her most prized ability, namely, the ability to not take everything with the gravest of seriousness.
So, they waited for [Sic] to tell a joke. Yay, for this was his weakness and their most hated action (even though they could not grasp the concept of a joke) of all. ´Twas a battle of epic proportions. With razor-sharp reasoning [Sic] tried to show them the errors of their ways, and contributed with many illuminating arguments to why he should be allowed to stay at the board. The overlords wouldn´t have any of it, though, and so, [Sic] was banned for all eternity. For the second time.
Now, many a OUIFf-er will say to you that this is not true, that I have fabricated some, if not all, of it. You should do best in not paying attention to these troublemakers, though, for they only seek the demise and passing of [Sic].
I hope this report of what transpired at the Official Unofficial In Flames-forum has been helpful to you, dear reader. If you have any questions, please direct them hither to me, as I am the authority in OUIFf-lore and mythology.
(please excuse the length of this post, it was neccessary to reveal as much details as possible)
