Hey Guys! Do you ever feel down?
Yeah, Man! Like you're an arse-clown?
Is it because Sephy burned down your town?
Oh, and are you NOT a fan-boy?
Hey Guys! There's this place you can go!
Yeah Man! You can chat with Jojo.
You can hang out! And I know that you'll see
Lots of "CLOUDSTRIFEXXX"s and VIVI!
It's fun to chat at # e o f f
It's fun to chat at # e o f f
About everything that young people discuss
You can hang out with all of us!
So, newbies? You gotta listen to me.
Newbies, so your time there is free
of malice, all that malice and hate
well it's always there, but it might dissapate
First rule, plz dont typ liek dis
It really, makes all of us pissed
Like David, who, when opped will be glad
To ban your sorry, newb-can
Next rule, and its important too,
that is, don't be a big poo
Don't be whiney, when Jeebs says Cloud sucks
Defending imaginary characters is a waste of time.
....

*Oh, and we support newbie rights too. Yay us!*
*hand claps.
Sounds like an anti-newb song if anything to me, Megan :p
No, it promotes Newbie rights. Rather than let them come into chat and get reamed unecessarily, I give them words of wisdom, in the form of an AWESOME SONG. I don't want to see them feel bad, so I ease them into the experience of us! VIVA LA #EOFF PARTY!Quote:

Now, HOW are you supposed to make the arm motions for each letter?
No, I'm saying #eoff is a fun place to be if you don't act like a butthead, and I'm poking fun at both Final Fantasy and it's following AS WELL AS the members of #eoff. It's called SATIRE. Poop head :cool:
Just because you poke fun at the fact that new people are often made fun of/ostracised at #eoff for breaking social rules that they didn't even know existed doesn't make it OK. If anything, your song would worsen the problem by encouraging #eoffers to act in this way towards newbies. Butt head. :greenie:
First of all, no one is ostracized SERIOUSLY, except for those who make complete brats of themselves when they enter the room. Everything we do or say is in jest, unless you piss someone off for no reason. Like I said, the song is satirical. It's a lighthearted poke at all of the grouches and elitists nice guys geeks and newbies in there who can step back and take a look at themselves and giggle. If you can't do that, then you're a poop head :coolgreenie, beat that:
Rye: RIBBON DANCING!
uhmmm, we still dont have a sig. does this distress anyone else?
And how do you define "SERIOUSLY"? From personal experiences in #eoff, any newbie who wants to talk about Final Fantasy is generally ignored, which if you ask me is unfair considering as the last two letters in #eoff stand for Final Fantasy. Yeah, the chatroom probably isn't for discussing Final Fantasy, but they aren't to know any better, are they? They probably are thrilled as they see on the online users list many people, who they assume share the same passion for Final Fantasy as they do, and yet they are ignored. Ostracising is defined as "To exclude from a group" on Dictionary.com, and from personal experiences of #eoff (Yeah, it may have changed since I was a regular - #1 on chat stats for 3-4 months running :cool: - but I somewhat doubt it) newbies aren't included in group activities.
Anyway, I know that everything said in #eoff is often in jest. You know that everything said in #eoff is often in jest. Does cloud4583, on his first visit to #eoff and gets laughed and mocked for his name know it's said in jest? I doubt it. Yeah, let's take a giggle at making people feel bad! :laugh: Man that's pretty funny. People with hurt feelings and all. If you think that's funny, you're a butt head :coolNAKEDgreenie:
Sex = John Kerry > You.
Word.
I understand your position, and I agree there are SOME MEMBERS of chat who do prod newbies a little too much. That's what the song is for :p.
Still, there are those of us who welcome anyone into chat, and while we do tease them about their nicks, we usually let them know we're just kidding around. I can't think of any newbies I've recently talked to in chat that have been outright degraded for their very existence. When I was a newbie in chat, that never happened to me. No ONE is excluded. Like in any situation, it obviously takes a new person time to warm up to the group, and vice versa. In chat, many of us attempt to ease that awkwardness with a poke and a prod, and we either make that very obvious, or we outright tell you. I don't claim to speak for everyone in chat all the time, because there are some grouchy butts. I do claim to speak in the spirit of what I have found chat to be, and what I feel it should be, another type of communication to bring the members of the forums together, and to introduce both old and new a like. The inherent nature of chat is that of fun. This party feels that chat has lost some of that flavor, and want the members of the forum, past, present and future, old and new, to come around and support another important faction of our community. The song is meant to be a light hearted introduction to that. If it fails in that aspect, I'll re-write it.
Poophead. :coolnakedgreeniepanda:
