Despite the fact that he posted the same thing about 4 times in a row, I believe John Hayes to have a good FAQ going, and thus to go through the Pomp and Circumstance required when you try to add order to a chaotic world(Usenet),

I hereby Nominate John Hayes to be the Official FAQ master of alt.tv.southpark, with all its inherent rights and responsabilities. Can I get a second on this motion?

I second.

Better someone else than me, after all... :)

Heh Heh, I was thinking the exact same thing :)

OK John Hayes has been nominated and seconded as the official FAQer of alt.tv.southpark. Let's put it to a vote. Yays, Nays, Yes, No whatever pleases you.

I for one, vote Yes.

All votes should be in THIS thread(The Vote, Was: Let's make the FAQ official) and preferably only votes should be in this thread. If they aren't in this thread, they won't be tabulated.

Love is not something that you can put chains on and throw into a lake. That's called Houdini. Love is liking someone a lot.

I vote Yes, unless John Hayes doesn't want the job, but if he does, then YES!

Join the new Empire Records mailing list from coollist.com, email me for details, or if ya want me to sign you up.

I'll send an Aye on that one. Or a yes, if that would make people happier. Even an 'indubitably', if such is necesary.

[email] (Dave) once had the notion to say:

Ahh, I see. Sorry to get all rambunctious about getting John's FAQ official. That was a Good FAQ you forwarded us to, but is the official FAQ of THIS group?? I think a FAQ about this group should contain SOMETHING related to the group, not just a mere mention towards the bottom. Just asking.

....I've just looked at this "official" FAQ. It's a nice start, but the problem has to do with the person authoring the FAQ. Several of his responses are obnoxious, and totally defeat the purpose of an FAQ.

For example:
------------------------------------------------------------------
102 - Weight Gain 4000

What did it say on the blackboard? It was Spanish. Translated, it says some really dirty breast, scrotum, and penis phrases they'd never get away with in English.

(Please stop sending me the translation! I am aware of what it says but I do not want to print it here nor will I e-mail it to you on request.) ------------------------------------------------------------------

....This, of course, is an utterly banal response. It's a frequently asked question, so the complete answer should be on the list, not some vague sanitized snotty comment. Same goes for another response to Kenny's mumblings, and how anyone really wanting translations should go watch "The Simpsons".

In My Honorable Opinion, the guy running this FAQ needs to shape up his act or ship the hell out. Considering who My Father is, don't be surprised if he's forced to do the latter!
