Title: Minions!
Post by: Jubal on May 02, 2009, 10:34:08 AM
You can now give minions to other users, or take them away if you're feeling mean. This more or less works like a reputation system, it's just a trial run for now and if people like it, we'll keep it. Give people minions for good posting or modding.  :knight:

Cool Idea! You get a minion just for that!

I also enabled member blogs, added a bunch of new avatars, and added a section for games owned to profile pages.

If we keep the feature, we need to stop members being able to reduce it to avoid abuse.

Post by: Andalus on May 02, 2009, 12:15:46 PM
Good point, that should be sorted out.

This reminds me of the game "Overlord"!

I'm also quite surprised that I have more than 1 minion!

I wasn't talinkg about my parents. We have 350 people on here, of which only about 50 have ever posted much. You honestly don't think the other 300 are being put to good use?  :P

Title: Minions!
Post by: DeepComet5581 on May 07, 2009, 05:11:15 PM
Nah. Vodka
Title: Minions!
Post by: Silver Wolf on May 07, 2009, 07:04:26 PM
Yep I prefer Vodka too, but cola and cheap wine are a better combination than Vodka and Cola  B) ...
Title: Minions!
Post by: Ashanorath on May 07, 2009, 07:32:03 PM
noups straight bourbon whiskey and cola are better combination than cheap wine and cola. But good whiskey is a bit expensive

No..... Boyninja616 did it ! He mentioned Cola and I couldn't resist !
Title: Minions!
Post by: DeepComet5581 on May 07, 2009, 09:52:19 PM
Cola isn't alcoholic. How the hell did that get you started?

Let's talk about the minions now, they're great aren't they?
Title: Minions!
Post by: Silver Wolf on May 07, 2009, 09:55:00 PM
Cola was created in order to be mixed alcoholic beverages !  ;)

And yes, Minions are great !
Title: Minions!
Post by: DeepComet5581 on May 07, 2009, 10:20:44 PM
Cola was actually created to carry Cocaine! They used to put it in there instead of sugar! That's why it's called 'Coke'!

OKAY! THAT'S THE END OF THE DAMN ALCOHOL CONVERSATION!!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What do you get your minions to do for you?

I get mine to dance to the tune of Eiffel 65 - Blue.

#I'm Blue da ba dee da ba die...

noup, boyninja, coca-cola wasn't created to carry cocaine the name comes from cocaine (a tiny bit of it was used(9 milligrams per 2dl)) which is made from coca leafs and caffeine which is made from koka nut. more on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coca-Cola#New_Coke (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coca-Cola#New_Coke)

now, enough of  beverages let's get buck to minions
