But why a cat?
Is Ming banning ColdWizard for the third time or something?

Recently DanQ confirmed he wants to stop his support of Apolyton and pull the plug if Markos would continue his crusade against kittens.

Markos immediately turned around and is suddenly in defense of kittens. It's unbelievable !

Rumors say that "Apolyton Kitten" will soon be promoted to moderator.

I'll continue my fight against the kitten though ! :doitnow:

Oh, right...
I better switch from the ultra-special view (that you so politely asked for us to try) to the plain special view then.
GO BANNERS!

With the ultra-special view I had none.

Edit: It's official. I'm sticking with the MOO3 defauly view because I get 2 banners!

Maybe its your banners that are banned by Ming?

You've made 3 or so banners, haven't you CyberShy?

No, I've made 10 banners (so far)
If people will keep on buying them, I'll keep on producing them !

You can buy my banners in 1.50m x 30cm format in the store ! It's a decoration to every wall !

I've met Ming in person, and he doesn't look nearly as cute as on that mousepad.

He has been known to miaou when a bird walks past though.

i wanted to say something about this too in today's meeting, but the marketing department guys insisted that it goes without saying that our Ming products are targeted to the OT people and therefore markg's announcement should be done here

now we're on it,
what's Ming's record number of banned people in one day ?

Is it Black Saturday ?

Why don't you sell black-saturday merchandizes ?
With texts like:

"Banned by Ming on Black Saturday:
name1
name2
name3
etc. etc."

I'm sure it'll sell pretty well !

It was my only ban as well! (it's good that I have no picture of Markos, because I'm sure I would've putted it in such a way in my banners that I would've been banned permanently by now )

But we indeed sent a message ! Our death bodies were not stinking for nothing !
Future generations will celibrate liberty because of our offer !

Hence, give us the t-shirt !
Show us our proud names !
