Wojo 2,458 Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 I shall play a sad Schindler's List violin tune in memory of our dear friend's passing from this forum to that place where loved and respected posters go. Oh, un-loved and un-respected posters go there too, but nobody notices because nobody ever misses them.Mark will be missed, and this forum has died a bit because of it, and if more of us wake up tomorrow and just delete our accounts because he's gone, well, no one can blame us.And now I shall drink a Dos Equis or two, because if there's one thing Mark taught me, it's to stay thirsty.
Trent Hoyt 13 Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 Mark is a great guy. Thank you for sending me your old copy of Mars Attacks!.
Jill Sandwich 11,164 Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 Mark is one of those rare JWfan posters whose posts I never skip. So without him, none of you have a prayer!I dunno, I'd never leave a forum I like outright. There's no rule saying you have to be either a fulltime poster or don't post at all. These days, I have my moments where I'll splurge one or a few posts at a time and then not be seen again for weeks. I'd keep my account open just in case I wish to pop in for a cameo once in a blue moon.
Sandor 918 Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 When did this board get filled with drama queens...?
Trent B 354 Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 It's always sad when we lose a member. Hopefully Mark you will eventually change your mind and come back, or at least pop on every once a while.You've always been fun to chat with here on the board. I never recalled ever really getting into an argument with you. Either way it's definitely sad to see JWFAN lose one of it's fine members.If you end up disappearing for good you will be missed.There's one board I visit that I use to be a regular poster and a moderator to (FX Sabers) but in the last couple of years I've basically dropped off from it. I still glance on there every once in a while to see what's been going on. Maybe post if I find something worthy to reply too.As I said hopefully you won't end up quitting all together, just be one who posts on occasion.
Josh500 1,620 Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 I used to hate Mark (for various reasons), but eventually I have come to . . . well, maybe not love, but at least to like him. Well, even if he doesn't moderate anymore, I hope he will post every now and then, contribute to the board. Especially with two new JW scores coming soon.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,383 Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 When did this board get filled with drama queens...? Hmmm....didnt you go mental on this mb a fee times?
Thor 9,362 Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 When did this board get filled with drama queens...? He, he...MARK OLIVAREZ SUCKS!!Better? Seriously, Mark has had more than the occasional dig at me (esp. over the C&C issue), but he's a good guy and longtime co-member on various fora. If I remember correctly, he goes back as long as I do in various film music fora.
Quintus 6,493 Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 I think we should sticky this thread just so every member ever has the opportunity to chirp in with their farewells. Put up a link to it on the main page as well.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,383 Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 Sounds like a real cunt....
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,383 Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 To be honest I never really liked him anyway.
Hlao-roo 390 Posted December 7, 2013 Author Posted December 7, 2013 I know I'm behind the times, but, so long, Mark-O! I suppose all good things must come to an end. (And if you ever decide to "un-guest" yourself, by all means.)
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,383 Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 This thread should be deleted! The cowardly traitor left us, thus no homage should be paid to him. The mention of his name should become a gruesome act, akin to throwing up during a wedding!
Quintus 6,493 Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 Or speaking aloud the Ring verse in the Black Speech!
Code 000. Destruct. 0. 4,262 Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 I never knew Mark O, but by all accounts, he certainly was a human, a male one. He had some opinions, and experienced some things. I even heard that he enjoyed film music. Goodnight, sweet prince. Koray Savas and KK 2
Naïve Old Fart 13,020 Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 Anyone who had as much love for "The Towering Inferno" (film and acore) as Mark does, gets my vote.He will be remembered with honour.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,383 Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 Lack of personality and moral fortitude!
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,383 Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 We can speculate!I've got money on gender reassignment and the resulting lifestyle change.
Naïve Old Fart 13,020 Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 Which makes Stefan's comments...presumptious?
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,383 Posted December 27, 2013 Posted December 27, 2013 No, "he's" a Facebook friend. Marcia Olivarez....
JoeinAR 1,957 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Mark was a great admin and I am sincere about that.He's a lover of film music, John Williams, and trains. Lets hope his time away is great for him.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,383 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Mark's admin ship was a mere blip. I'm sure it was well intentioned, but nothing compared to the era's of Bulk and Breathmask!Kinda like the Nazi Pope we had for a few years...
Jill Sandwich 11,164 Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 Someone called me a nazi just because I thought Carrie should be in gaol for killing her defenceless schoolmates. I couldn't see the connection. It's a pejorative that's thrown around without much thought!
JoeinAR 1,957 Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 what is gaol? Not being a spelling Nazi, just not sure of the word (is it a slang for hell?). at the point of Carrie's revenge you was probably insane and not using good judgement, especially in the first version. Otherwise she would not have killed Ms. Collins.
Jill Sandwich 11,164 Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 Gaol is the British/Australian spelling for jail.
indy4 160 Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 Someone called me a nazi just because I thought Carrie should be in gaol for killing her defenceless schoolmates. I couldn't see the connection. It's a pejorative that's thrown around without much thought!I don't think that's what Stefan meant...the last pope was literally a member of Hitler Youth (granted, he was like 12).
Jill Sandwich 11,164 Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 Wasn't that compulsory for young German boys? I thought he deserted them.
indy4 160 Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 If I recall correctly, there's some debate over whether he joined at the age where it was compulsory or not. Either way he was young, if you're going to criticize him for decision he made, better pick a decision made in his adult life.
Jill Sandwich 11,164 Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 I quite liked him because he was a cat person.
Quintus 6,493 Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 Gaol is the British/Australian spelling for jail.I don't spell it like that.
