fishing for thanks.

    from the writer and director of anything can happen after hours and starbelgrade behind closed doors comes a brand new riveting thriller that will rock your socks.

    ---

    all his life, larry just wanted to get by as a background poster. just someone who'd pop in and out of threads, giving his opinion on matters he didn't really care about and never looking back.

    but what if you became A STAR?

    overnight, an underground movement of posters who'd never been thanked for their posts rose up without any of the critically acclaimed posters noticing something was up. and these unheard of posters had a target: larry2k10___lol!!!. while larry was asleep, each and every single one of the posters went through his posts and thanked them all.

    the next morning, larry wakes up accused of hacking boards.ie to fix up his thanks number. outnumbered and alone, larry finds himself confined to prison, with the cruel and unforgiving warden named gordan his only chance of getting back into his one true home.

    but then a poster who participated in the rise-up-rise-his-thanks plot owns up to what went down on that fateful evening and larry finds his world turned upside down. what started out as an innocent schism on boards.ie turned into larry getting evacuated from his house in the dead of night, thrown into a stolen riot van and driven to a safehouse where he'd be free from the angry mob of well-known posters who worked hard to get their thanks.

    thrown into a situation he wasn't aware of and not knowing who to trust, larry has to survive on his own. but life is hard enough before the thankswhores join the fray and larry has to break every limit he knows to get out of this mess.

    I'm beginning to think you're a bit obsessed with starbelgrade...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,128 ✭✭✭✭Oranage2


    Are you "fishing" to suck starbelgrade off because I'd rather you ask him in PM instead of a coded thread

    Load of ****.

    I shortened it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,617 ✭✭✭Cat Melodeon


    What is with the thanks obsession? Some people are funny. Some have a good turn of phrase and word things well. Others have populist opinions that appeal to the masses. They get thanked. Deal with it.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 205 ✭✭dynamot


    boards users should have a 'no thanks' option

    Your drunken thread the other week made more sense tbh


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,191 ✭✭✭✭Latchy


    This must be one of those ' AH contagious diseases ' topics they talk about in other forums


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,128 ✭✭✭✭Oranage2


    what?

    To summerize, I suggest you go outside for atleast 5 minutes and think long and hard about what you have just wrote.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,053 ✭✭✭PanchoVilla


    Is there a prison rape scene? I only watch films with prison rape scenes.

    Also, I haven't seen people this judgmental since I last visited the A&A forums. I fear AH is losing it's sense of humor....oh wait. Thread title should read "Fishing for trolls" tbh.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,772 ✭✭✭johnn


    Didn't read that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,647 ✭✭✭✭El Weirdo

    I prefer the A-Team intro, tbh.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,107 ✭✭✭flanum


    "fishing for thanks"??? your hoping your gonna end up with a "fish tank"!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,305 ✭✭✭DOC09UNAM


    Man you clearly have an obsession with Starbelgrade.

    Should change the title to

    "Fishing for Spanks"

    Probably be a more accurate description tbh.
