We Are The Borg

Lower Your Shields And Prepare To Be Assimilated

Your Technological And Biological Distinctiveness Will Be Integrated Into Our Own

Resistance Is Futile

& they're waiting... -to cut out the deadwood
Waiting -to clean up the city
Waiting -to follow the worms
Waiting -to put on a black shirt
Waiting -to weed out the weaklings
Waiting -to smash in their windows
And kick in their doors

Gerald Scarfe (http://rockpopgallery.typepad.com/rockpop_gallery_news/2007/08/cover-story---p.html):In as far as what inspired the 'Hammers' imagery, we obviously wanted to have some figure of oppression, and I came up with the hammers. I had to think, ‘what would be the most obvious symbol of oppression’, and the most unrelenting, crushing, unthinking thing that I could think of was a hammer. The violence of a hammer when it comes down is horrific. I was slightly worried that they might be adopted by some fascist, neo-Nazi group as a symbol but thankfully it didn’t happen.

But it did (http://www.hammerskins.net/).

Our Great Mods have much better taste, and didn't bugger the insignia up like the stupid skins. If you're going to brutally rule, at least do it in style.

This idea sucks some major dick.

Every time I read somebody's post, I identify who the poster is by capturing a faint image of their avatar whilst simultaneously reading what they had to say. Now I have to take the time to read their username, and then their post?

Thanks, Sciforums - thanks a fucking lot.

Kadark:

We received a complaint that some moderator avatars were considered offensive. So, we are trialling this as an alternative.

Actually, Their new avatar theme and ranking kinda reminds me of a clan or a guild LOL.

=[m0d3r80rZz]=


Kinda makes me jealous (I wanna be in a sciforum guild too!)
Maybe I should start my own........unfortunately, I can't really think of anything I have in common with a bunch of people to "theme" my guild off of.....
