 Al Borland, you must complete these challenges, that I'm going to give to you but haven't yet, or face punishment... "Hey I've been dealing with Spanish Manlove's probation abuse for about the past 3 months straight. He'll ban me pretty much for just posting a comment in GBS. No Rule Violations, just because he finds it funny. I've PMed him about it and his answer is pretty much, "I'm gonna keep doing it because I can and find it funny." Is there anything you guys can do about this bullshit? I'm frankly getting sick of it." -PM from Forums Poster "Al Borland" to the Something Awful moderation family I can do something about this bullshit, Al Borland, or rather, the power rests with you to save yourself. In a way, maybe it always did... Spanish Manlove can NOT hurt you in this thread - I will not allow it. Can you do it? Can you accomplish it? Can you dare to dream, and dream... to succeed? Please post in this thread as soon as possible to receive your first task. You Can Do It

Old Dirty Cumburgs posted:how was this relevant to the topic at hand, or informative, funny, constructive? To clarify: synthy's cat is NOT dead, but several weeks after posting that it was, Al Borland made fun of the dead cat to "own" synthy, later bragging about it on steam. However this thread is NOT about dwelling on the past, but looking forward to a brighter future.

Tubgirl Cosplay posted:I'm glad you took this all to PMs after making a sticky about it, allowing the whiny boring guy to bitch out and slink away with no entertaining reprecussions. He is going to do it, and has in fact already started. I will reveal what the challenge was after it has been completed, but can't beforehand because it would render it inadmissable.

Al Borland's first challenge was to prove he could make constructive posts, and as such he had to make an ask/tell thread on one of the following topics:quote:1. You are the owner of a cinema that has branded one of its screens as a cinema specifically for pets [mainly dogs]. Mention why you've decided to do this, how the system works and how it's benefited you, as well as giving a more general history of your cinema [normal otherwise?]. Don't be afraid to share a humourous anecdote or two. I think this task has been completed well enough. lets move things up a bit. For the second challenge Al Borland has to make 5 of the following 6 posts. Remember to keep the tone serious - this isnt some sort of joking contest. lets say two days for this one:

One of my ideas was to post the flyer in the thread and have everyone post pics of it up on walls and stuff but I guess al didn't want his e-mail address on-line and I promised not to share it.... Still he did a drat fine job himself...

Alejandro Sanchez posted:Where is the fourth challenge. here it is. Its no secret that I've been soliciting challenge suggestions via pm, although no one's actually sent me any - until now, that is! This challenge suggestion comes from GBS poster and occasional thread reader Al Borland. Thanks for writing in, Al! Al writes:  Well, it looks like Al has become a good poster after all, as he is displaying a trait that all good posters share: the innate desire to destroy Al Borland posts. and to think this whole thing started from him sending a pm to the admins complaining about being probated too much... truly a turn around. the final challenge, is that Al Borland can not post in gbs for three months. this thread is over
