the #eoff party - Newbies, Chat, Stats and Hats!
the #eoff party
Defending champions, The Newbie Party, with a new goal!
Last year, The Newbie Party won the elections against all odds. We strived for the equal treatment of newbies and by golly I think we've done it - Newbies have been coming in en masse this year and have been treated fairer than ever! While The Newbie Party will this year change its party name and its #1 priority, equal treatment for newbies will remain one of its four chief goals. We won't just sit back, having achieved our first goal, to let it slide away from us once again. We'll continue to maintain EoFF's welcoming spirit and generally awesome atmosphere and reputation.
The four main things that the #eoff party will stand for are as follows:
#eoff - Two or so years ago, #eoff started to get less and less regular chatters. Over this time, The Newbie Party has recognised such matters and thus the chat stats were brought into play - causing a surge of activity in the chatroom. We plan to further raise chatroom awareness throughout the year and would love for anyone and everyone to get into that chatroom and have themselves a good ol' chat with the people there.
Newbie Rights - and more recently, Oldbie Rights - Newbies and Oldbies both have one thing in common - they're often misunderstood. Newbies can feel left out, unwelcome, neglected and/or looked down on, while Oldbies can often be labelled unfairly as elitists, "staffers pets", etc. We wish to show that newbies and oldbies are just as cool as each other. We have a dream that one day, the newbies and oldbies of EoFF will not be judged by how long they have been posting here, but by the content of their posts. We have a dream. We have a lot of other dreams, but they're not really important, although some of them are a lot more arousing.
Stats - I'll openly admit that this is a personal addition, but hey, in the past month or so I've been updating the #eoff stats and also posting stats on newbies and such things, so it can't hurt to add it in.I love stats, and if you do too, then awesome! If you wish to find out some kind of stat and I have the time and ability (and am allowed) to get it for you, then by golly I will.
Hats - Chat, Stat, Hat. Hats are cool. You can't go far wrong with a hat.
Other things that the #eoff party supports include...
tGA - where newbies and oldbies can all have loads of RP'ing fun. There is even a #tga chatroom, which can be accessed through the #eoff chatroom by typing /join #tgaMost #tga chatters are #eoff chatters, and most tGA posters are EoFF posters.
repo man - the guy who took The Newbie Party to a whole new level.
Spanners - in honour of repo man.
'e names' - as noted in chat last night, 'e names' include enano, eestlinc, eternalshiva, eternal essence and edczxcvbnm. If the 'e names' were to become 'E names', the world would be lesser for it. #eoff, naturally, is in favour of using the lower case 'e' if one feels it appropriate.
Donkeys - There's just something about #eoff that reminds me of donkeys, and vice versa.
Aiyon - Because Aiyon is sexy, and also because Aiyon sponsors the #eoff party.
The word 'cahoots' - It's just so fun to say.
Improvements - Improving the FanArt section on the frontsite, as well as the news.
frig7 - Because everyone should read this story by Citizen Bleys.
The Attack! Button - If the #eoff party wins, I will do everything in my power to bring back the Attack! button.
Weedwhackers - Quite arguably the greatest things in existance.
The Goomba - Fighting the fight for the Goomba right!
