Better send them an invite by PM while you still can!
(Byron's "Let what end?" is perfect, isn't it? Dumbfuck can't read. Or is that him trying to slyly draw out the other so he can ban him? )

Sorry. Here ya go. Looks like he's posted again since I looked earlier.
On Fri Apr 09, 2010 at 8:49 pm, in thread 'Should I get this book', Superdog (Joined: 28 Jan 2010) wrote:I find the "mid-eqels" to be the worst of the Expanded Duniverse. (I've read them all)
Both Paul and Winds are saddled with what are basically unneccesary side plots of the "Wacky Misadventures of Young Paul Atriedes".
Theoritically there are interesting things that could be explored (how the jihad started, what happens to Gurney and Jessica etc) and these are touched on briefly. Most of the plot is devoted to the building of Paul's palace, and a pair of assasination attempts that we know will fail. There really is no "progression".
After a failed rebellion Paul decides to sterilize x,y and z planets, presumably killing hundreds of millions of innocent people. His reasoning is just that he's mad cuz the guy was going to attack Caladan.
Paul spends almost the entire book of Dune fearing the coming of the Jihad. At one point he views Jessica as his enemy, because she created him and he will create the Jihad. He considers that to stop the Jihad he would basically have to kill everyone is Sietch Tabr, his mom, his sister, Chani, Stilgar etc etc. He isn't willing to do this.
None of this really comes across in Paul of Dune.

I'm glad I previewed my post. "Shit" had been changed to "dung." Doesn't quite have the same ring to it.
I sent a PM to Superdog about Jacurutu, considering we all know any actual mention of our beloved sietch will only be deleted by The Almighty DumbAdmin.
EDIT:
Just checked back. Both of my posts are gone. I also don't seem to be able to log in. Looks like I've been FREAKBANNED. I'm officially a member of the club! Considering worse has been said, I'm a little shocked, but then again, to quote the mighty Mr. Teg, Byron's a pussy. I guess I shouldn't be that shocked since the last time I posted there he deleted my sig, which was simply a quote from Chig about my green tushie ( ).
I'm glad that when I PMed Superdog I mentioned about the deletions and Freakbanning. Perhaps he'll join us? PMs ( ) shouldn't be deleted, right?

(Does the board still send out emails to new registrees to confirm they're not spammers? Has someone confirmed recently that the email server is working properly? It appears to go down every once in a while, and it might put people off if they're waiting for a promised confirmation email that never comes, no? ... But even with a delay it's gotta be faster than registering on DumbNovels & waiting for poke-ass Merritt to approve you! )

I think I waited for that confirmation email forever. When it didn't arrive after a good few days, I tried emailing Freak and Omph - also no joy.
It was only when I tried registering with my hotmail address that I managed to join.

Re: posts that I think will get deleted at DN
Yeah, I discovered it was wonky when I was registering some new sock-puppets!
(Hee hee, that'll get certain people spinning on their thumbs for a while!)
Actually, I'm not kidding this time: the two Green Hopi accounts are mine, created to make fun of smooty/Kangamoose/wHoleyRuckusMongoose.
(Hey, Omph, did I ask you to delete those or was I just planning to and never actually got around to it? I don't plan on using them, so the only purpose they're serving is to keep The Wanker of Wales from coming back and registering and using the name himself. )

I registered again without the Irulan comment in the signature (because I was so impressed with Onasander and wanted to try my hand at trolling), and there's nothing going on over there. Because, obviously, what is there to talk about? How good the new books are? That's what they get.

It's nice of Byron to let you post there under a reversed version of your old username.
Kinda symbolic, too, no? (Which may or may not be unintentional and completely lost on ByrByr.) By participating there under that name and helping keep the place afloat, you're really acting in opposition to what you really believe about the place.
I find that very fitting.

Yes, YOU were talking about male chickens, but Byron read it (if you can call that thing he does with his lips quivering and his eyes rolling about like that "reading") as a veiled allusion to swollen egos and noisy balls of feathers strutting saucily about.
