What were you like when you were a noob? What's the dumbest thing you did?
I don't think I'm that much different from my noob days (although I have made some improvements), but I do remember the surf thing, which involved multiple threads. Here we go:
The surf thing involved me and two users which are now perma-banned. Those users were spartandestroyer and MEGAMANXPERT. It began when spartandestroyer said this on page 1074 of You're banned:
banned cause im a SURF! HAHAHA! a golden SURF!
I then responded by saying he was a serf, not a surf. He continued arguing, and after 1 page, it escalated into me saying this:
spartandestroyer, STOP THIS ARGUMENT NOW!!!! YOU ARE A SERF!!!!
That much happened in just 15 minutes, then spartandestroyer classified me as a spartan in this post on page 1076:
BANNED CAUSE I AM A SURF!!!!!!
IM REALLY MAD NOW! (patrick2011 is classified as a spartan!)
TACTICAL NUKE INCOMING!!!
(patrick2011 is now in the semiexistance world of minecraft!)
I responded to that with this ban:
You're banned for the following reasons:
1. You posted in all caps.
2. You posted in bold italics.
3. You called me a spartan.
4. You decided an outcome as a non-creator (you put me in the world of Minecraft).
5. You are a SERF, not a surf.
6. You're banned for continuing to argue with me, even though d_dude said to stop.
In case of a ninja, everything I said was directed at spartandestroyer.
Going Off-Topic: Page 1077 began with Paarfam (now perma-banned) calling me a dragon in this ban:
Banned for being Patrick, the green dragon.
Back On-Topic:On page 1078, MEGAMANXPERT joined and made this post:
Hey get real,compare the words
"Serfing" is not real
"Surfing" is.
hence
WE ARE SURFS!
Banned for misspelling.
He was trying to be logical, but the logic is incorrect since the following analogy is not true:
serf : serfing :: surf : surfing
Later in that page, spartandestroyer began carrying bans over to me even when I am the wrong user to ban. On the next page, spartandestroyer created the following joke:
why did the surf ban the nooby squire? cause he was there.
One hour after the surf thing started, the You're banned thread reached page 1080, and MEGAMANXPERT created an infinite loop with this post:
Infinity loop activated
PATRI
PATRI
PATRI
PATRICK,theretherethereisisisisis
NNNNNNO
ESCAPE
ESCAPE
ESCAPE!!!!
At that point, I created a new forum game, which is now locked. However, you can see it
here. In that game, I was ninja'd massively, which led to an argument between me and MEGAMANXPERT. The game ended on page 9 (of 13), but spartandestroyer then accused me of god modding in this post:
i accuse you of god modding! i use reversal and patrick2011 is to be tested. kill yourself or be guilty of god modding and get banned from this forum.
Btw, at this point, the surf thing had been going on for 2 and a half hours. MEGAMANXPERT then created
this thread. d_dude then called the surf thing spam in the following post:
I was flagged for stating a fact, wow. SErfs should take a lesson from themselves on what spamming is. Can we stop this surf thing? It is degrading to horrible, horrible spam. You guys are just going to become squires anyways.
MEGAMANXPERT also accused me of trolling. Btw, the revenge thread is also locked.
About half an hour after the creation of the revenge thread, Cenere locked it with this message:
And at last:
Stop this, you are all making fools out of yourself.
On the morning of April 16th (the surf thing was on April 15th), Cenere locked the original surf game with this message:
You know rules about specific users? Yeah, this count.
And then there is a bit of spam, and so on...
Back to the You're banned thread:That thread reached page 1083 when the original game ended. Two pages later, spartandestroyer used a non-American spelling, which I pointed out. However, he called me a grammar nazi. On page 1087 (this was after the surf thing), SupaLegit banned me with this reason:
Patrick, you're banned for creating the forum game that brought so much SPAM to the forums >.>
On the next day, MEGAMANXPERT posted an image with a swear word on page 1093. He then proceeded to call that word a non-swear (it was the s-word).
Anyway, that's what I would consider the dumbest thing I have ever done/seen.
